Abstract
Abstract Process for the production of film forming synthetic resins for hair fixative compositions by reacting a methylolated 5,5-dialkylhydantoin containing 1-5 carbon atoms in each alkyl group at an elevated temperature in the presence of a bifunctional acid amide and/or amine. Hair fixative compositions containing 2-10% by weight of the resin product as the major or sole resin compound.

Claim 1
Independent Claim
181 words
Process for the production of a water soluble, film-forming resin product having a molecular weight in the range of from about 700 up to about 3000 or more for a hair fixative composition, which comprises reacting a 5,5-dialkylhydantoin wherein each alkyl group thereof contains from 1 to 5 carbon atoms with aqueous formaldehyde solution in the mole ratio of from about 1.5 to about 2.5 moles of formaldehyde per mole of said hydantoin, at a temperature in the range of from about 55° C. up to about 100° C. and a pH in the range of from about 6 up to about 11 and recovering the resulting methylolated 5,5-dialkylhydantoin from the resulting reaction products by removal of from about 50 to 100% of water, then reacting at an elevated temperature in the range of from about 70° C. to about 115° C. said methylolated 5,5-dialkylhydantoin in the presence of from about 0.2 to about 2.5 moles of urea per mole of said hydantoin and from about 0.1 to about 1.0 mole of a low molecular weight ketone, per mole of urea.
