Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim 126 words
A hair shampoo in liquid or paste form for use on human hair attached to the human head which includes a water carrier, a non-perfluorinated water-soluble quaternary ammonium compound detergent, and which contains, as an additional ingredient thereof, a hydrophobic-lipophobic compound of anionic, cationic, nonionic or amphoteric character, corresponding to the formula CF.sub.3 --(CF.sub.2).sub.x --(CH.sub.2).sub.y --Z where Z is a member selected from the class consisting of a water-solubilizing group and an oil-solubilizing group, x is an integer from 2 to 17, and y is an integer from 0 to 4, said compound being present in proportions, based on the weight of the shampoo, in the range of about 0.5% to about 2%, said compound being present in proportions less than the proportions of said detergent.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 126 words
A hair shampoo in liquid or paste form for use on human hair attached to the human head which includes a water carrier, a non-perfluorinated water-soluble quaternary ammonium compound detergent, and which contains, as an additional ingredient thereof, a hydrophobic-lipophobic compound of anionic, cationic, nonionic or amphoteric character, corresponding to the formula CF.sub.3 --(CF.sub.2).sub.x --(CH.sub.2).sub.y --Z where Z is a member selected from the class consisting of a water-solubilizing group and an oil-solubilizing group, x is an integer from 2 to 17, and y is an integer from 0 to 4, said compound being present in proportions, based on the weight of the shampoo, in the range of about 0.5% to about 2%, said compound being present in proportions less than the proportions of said detergent.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 13 words
The shampoo of claim 1, in which the detergent comprises cetyltrimethyl ammonium chloride.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 26 words
The shampoo of claim 1, in which, in the hydrophobic-lipophobic compound, x is 7 to 11, and in which the hydrophobic-lipophobic compound is a cationic compound.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 20 words
The shampoo of claim 1, in which x is 7 to 11, and the hydrophobic-lipophobic compound is an amphoteric compound.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 20 words
The shampoo of claim 1, in which x is 7 to 11, and the hydrophobic-lipophobic compound is a nonionic compound.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 139 words
A hair shampoo in liquid or paste form for use on human hair attached to the human head which includes a water carrier, a non-perfluorinated detergent which is an alkali metal, ammonium or ethanolamine lauryl sulfate salt; lauric diethanolamide; and, as an additional ingredient of said hair shampoo, a hydrophobic-lipophobic compound of anionic, cationic, nonionic or amphoteric character corresponding to the formula CF.sub.3 --(CF.sub.2).sub.x --(CH.sub.2).sub.y --Z where Z is a member selected from the class consisting of a water-soluble group and an oil-solubilizing group, x is an integer from 2 to 17, and y is an integer from 0 to 4, said compound being present in proportions, based on the weight of the shampoo, in the range of about 0.05% to not in excess of 10%, said compound being present in proportions less than the proportions of said detergent.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 139 words
A hair shampoo in liquid or paste form for use on human hair attached to the human head which includes a water carrier, a non-perfluorinated detergent which is an alkali metal, ammonium or ethanolamine lauryl sulfate salt; lauric diethanolamide; and, as an additional ingredient of said hair shampoo, a hydrophobic-lipophobic compound of anionic, cationic, nonionic or amphoteric character corresponding to the formula CF.sub.3 --(CF.sub.2).sub.x --(CH.sub.2).sub.y --Z where Z is a member selected from the class consisting of a water-soluble group and an oil-solubilizing group, x is an integer from 2 to 17, and y is an integer from 0 to 4, said compound being present in proportions, based on the weight of the shampoo, in the range of about 0.05% to not in excess of 10%, said compound being present in proportions less than the proportions of said detergent.
