Shampoo containing a polyglycol-polyamine condensation resin and a phosphate ester

Claim 2

An aqueous shampoo comprising: (a) from 5% to 30% by weight of an alkyl sulphate or alkyl ether sulphate detergent; (b) from 0.1% to 5% by weight of a polyglycol condensation resin which is a hardenable polycondensation product produced by reacting a polyamine compound having from 2 to 10 carbon atoms with an ether of polyoxyalkylene glycol having terminal halogens or hydroxyls and having from 2 to 4 carbon atoms in alkylene units thereof, said polyamine reaction compounds having more than one hydrogen atoms attached to a nitrogen atom and being further reacted with a bifunctional aliphatic compound having functional groups selected from the group consisting of epoxide and α-halo-β-hydroxy-alkyl; and (c) from 0.1% to 3% by weight of a phosphate ester comprising a monoester of the formula ##STR10## and or a diester of the formula ##STR11## wherein R is a hydrocarbon group having 8 to 22 carbon atoms; n is 0 or an integer of from 1 to 10; and M is hydrogen or an alkali metal, ammonium or amine salt forming group.

Claim 3

An aqueous shampoo as claimed in claim 1, in which the detergent is a C 10 to C 18 alkyl ether sulphate containing from 2 to 3 moles of ethylene oxide.

Claim 4

An aqueous shampoo consisting essentially of: (a) from 5 to 30% by weight of a C 10 to C 18 alkyl ether sulphate containing from 2 to 3 moles of ethylene oxide; (b) from 0.1% to 5% by weight of a polyglycol condensation resin which is a hardenable polycondensation product produced by reacting a polyamine compound having from 2 to 10 carbon atoms with an ether of polyoxyalkylene glycol having terminal halogens or hydroxyls and having from 2 to 4 carbon atoms in the alkylene units thereof, said polyamine reaction compounds having more than one hydrogen atoms attached to a nitrogen atom and being further reacted with a bifunctional aliphatic compound having functional groups selected from the group consisting of epoxide and α-halo-β-hydroxy-alkyl; (c) from 0.1% to 3% by weight of a phosphate ester comprising a monoester of the formula ##STR12## and/or a diester of the formula ##STR13## where R is a hydrocarbon group having 8 to 22 carbon atoms; n is 0 or an integer of from 1 to 10; M is hydrogen or an alkali metal, ammonium or amine salt forming group; and (d) water.

Claim 5

An aqueous shampoo consisting essentially of: (a) from 5 to 30% by weight of a C 10 to C 18 alkyl ether sulphate containing from 2 to 3 moles of ethylene oxide; (b) from 0.1% to 5% by weight of a polyglycol condensation resin which is a hardenable polycondensation product produced by reacting a polyamine compound having from 2 to 10 carbon atoms with an ether of polyoxyalkylene glycol having terminal halogens or hydroxyls and having from 2 to 4 carbon atoms in the alkylene units thereof, said polyamine reaction compounds having more than one hydrogen atoms attached to a nitrogen atom and being further reacted with a bifunctional aliphatic compound having functional groups selected from the group consisting of epoxide and α-halo-β-hydroxy-alkyl; (c) from 0.1% to 3% by weight of a phosphate ester comprising a monoester of the formula ##STR12## and/or a diester of the formula ##STR13## where R is a hydrocarbon group having 8 to 22 carbon atoms; n is 0 or an integer of from 1 to 10; M is hydrogen or an alkali metal, ammonium or amine salt forming group; and (d) water.
