Abstract

Abstract Cationic keratin derivatives which are obtained by reacting a part or whole of functional groups of keratin with a cationizing agent which contains in the molecule thereof a specific type of a group or groups and a quaternary nitrogen atom. The process for preparing such derivatives and a variety of cosmetics containing the same are also described.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 10
Claim 1
Independent Claim 50 words
A cationic keratin derivative which is obtained by reacting a part or whole of functional groups of keratin with a cationizing agent which contains in its molecule a group or groups of the formula ##STR20## or CH 2 ═CH-- wherein X represents a halogen atom, and a quaternary nitrogen atom.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 50 words
A cationic keratin derivative which is obtained by reacting a part or whole of functional groups of keratin with a cationizing agent which contains in its molecule a group or groups of the formula ##STR20## or CH 2 ═CH-- wherein X represents a halogen atom, and a quaternary nitrogen atom.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 56 words
A cationic keratin derivative according to claim 1, wherein the part or whole of functional groups of keratin is modified with a cationic group of the following formula ##STR21## wherein each R represents a lower alkyl group or an aryl group, X represents a halogen atom, and A represents a hydrogen atom or a hydroxyl group.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 18 words
A cationic keratin derivative according to claim 2, wherein said cationic group is β-hydroxy-γ-trimethylammoniopropyl group or γ-trimethylammoniopropyl group.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 82 words
A process for preparing cationic keratin derivative which comprises the steps of treating a keratin material or its hydrolyzed product with a reducing agent in water or in a mixture of water and a hydrophilic organic solvent to convert difulfide bonds in the keratin material into sulfhydryl groups, and reacting a ationizing agent containing in its molecule both a group or groups of the following formulas ##STR22## and CH 2 ═CH-- wherein X is a halogen atom, and a quaternary nitrogen atom.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 82 words
A process for preparing cationic keratin derivative which comprises the steps of treating a keratin material or its hydrolyzed product with a reducing agent in water or in a mixture of water and a hydrophilic organic solvent to convert difulfide bonds in the keratin material into sulfhydryl groups, and reacting a ationizing agent containing in its molecule both a group or groups of the following formulas ##STR22## and CH 2 ═CH-- wherein X is a halogen atom, and a quaternary nitrogen atom.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 48 words
A process according to claim 4, wherein the amount of said reducing agent is in the range of from 2 to 10 times in equivalent of disulfide bonds of the keratin material and the pH of the reaction system is in the range of from 2 to 12.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 33 words
A process according to claim 4, wherein the amount of the cationizing agent is in the range of 0.1 to 6 times in equivalent of sulfhydryl groups present in the reduction decomposition product.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 11 words
A hair treating cosmetic composition comprising the derivative of claim 1.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim 25 words
A hair treating cosmetic composition according to claim 7, wherein the amount of the derivative is from 0.01 to 10% by weight of the composition.
