Abstract

Abstract Composition comprising (A) a polydiorganosiloxane having molecular weight of at least 2500 and terminal --OX groups in which X is hydrogen, lower alkyl or alkoxyalkyl, at least two of the substituents in the polydiorganosiloxane containing at least two amine groups, the remainder preferably being methyl radicals, and (B) an organosiloxane having at least 3 silicon-bonded hydrogen atoms. The compositions can be applied to keratinous fibres to render such fibres shrink resistant and are particularly suitable for application in the form of an aqueous emulsion.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim 137 words
A composition consisting of (A) a polydiorganosiloxane having a molecular weight of at least 2500 and terminal --OX radicals wherein X represents a hydrogen atom or an alkyl or alkoxyalkyl radical having up to 15 carbon atoms, at least two of the silicon-bonded substituents present in said polydiorganosiloxane being monovalent radicals composed of carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen and, optionally, oxygen, which radicals contain at least two amine groups and are attached to silicon through a silicon to carbon linkage, and at least 50 percent of the total substituents in said polydiorganosiloxane being methyl, radicals, any remaining substituents being monovalent hydrocarbon radicals having from 2 to 20 inclusive carbon atoms, and (B) an organosiloxane having at least three silicon-bonded hydrogen atoms in the molecule and in which the organic radicals are alkyl radicals having less than 19 carbon atoms.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 137 words
A composition consisting of (A) a polydiorganosiloxane having a molecular weight of at least 2500 and terminal --OX radicals wherein X represents a hydrogen atom or an alkyl or alkoxyalkyl radical having up to 15 carbon atoms, at least two of the silicon-bonded substituents present in said polydiorganosiloxane being monovalent radicals composed of carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen and, optionally, oxygen, which radicals contain at least two amine groups and are attached to silicon through a silicon to carbon linkage, and at least 50 percent of the total substituents in said polydiorganosiloxane being methyl, radicals, any remaining substituents being monovalent hydrocarbon radicals having from 2 to 20 inclusive carbon atoms, and (B) an organosiloxane having at least three silicon-bonded hydrogen atoms in the molecule and in which the organic radicals are alkyl radicals having less than 19 carbon atoms.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 81 words
A composition as claimed in claim 1 wherein the polydiorganosiloxane (A) has been prepared by the reaction of a silanol terminated polydiorganosiloxane and a silane of the general formula CH 3 (XO) 2 SiZ wherein X represents an alkyl or alkoxyalkyl radical having up to 15 carbon atoms and Z represents a monovalent radical composed of carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen and, optionally, oxygen, which radical contains at least two amine groups and is attached to silicon through a silicon to carbon linkage.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 17 words
A composition as claimed in claim 1 wherein X represents the methyl radical or the ethyl radical.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 52 words
A composition as claimed in claim 1 wherein the amino-containing radicals present in (A) are selected from --(CH 2 ) 3 NHCH 2 CH 2 NH 2 , --(CH 2 ) 4 NHCH 2 CH 2 NH 2 and --CH 2 CH(CH 3 )CH 2 NHCH 2 CH 2 NH 2 .
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 27 words
A composition as claimed in claim 1 wherein (B) is employed in a proportion of from 4 to 25% by weight based on the weight of (A).
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 14 words
A composition as claimed in claim 1 in the form of an aqueous emulsion.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 27 words
A process for the treatment of keratinous fibres which comprises applying to said keratinous fibres a composition as claimed in claim 1 and curing the applied composition.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 19 words
A process as claimed in claim 7 wherein the composition is applied in the form of an aqueous emulsion.
