Abstract

Abstract A hair rinse composition is described which comprises a defined amount of at least one decomposition derivative of keratin material such as animal hair, human hair, nail, feather, hoof and the like. The derivatives are, for example, salts of decomposition products obtained by oxidation of keratin material or salts of derivatives at thiol groups of decomposition products obtained by reduction of keratin material. Surface active agents other than cationic surface active agents may be further contained.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim 82 words
A hair rinse composition comprising, in liquid medium, 0.1-10 wt% of at least one decomposition derivative of keratin material selected from the group consisting of (1) salts of decomposition products obtained by oxidation of keratin material to convert the disulfide bonds to sulfonic acid groups, and (2) salts of derivatives at thiol groups of decomposition products obtained by reduction of keratin material, wherein the derivative at the thiol groups is a member selected from the group consisting of --SCH 2 COOH, ##STR11##
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 82 words
A hair rinse composition comprising, in liquid medium, 0.1-10 wt% of at least one decomposition derivative of keratin material selected from the group consisting of (1) salts of decomposition products obtained by oxidation of keratin material to convert the disulfide bonds to sulfonic acid groups, and (2) salts of derivatives at thiol groups of decomposition products obtained by reduction of keratin material, wherein the derivative at the thiol groups is a member selected from the group consisting of --SCH 2 COOH, ##STR11##
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 26 words
A hair rinse composition according to claim 1, wherein said at least one decomposition derivative is contained in an amount of 0.1-5 wt% of the composition.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 38 words
A hair rinse composition according to claim 1, further comprising 0.01-5 wt% of at least one surface active agent selected from the group consisting of anionic surface active agents, nonionic surface active agents and amphoteric surface active agents.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 27 words
A hair rinse composition according to claim 5, wherein said at least one surface active agent is contained in an amount of 1-2 wt% of the composition.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 56 words
A hair rinse composition according to claim 5 or 6, wherein said at least one surface active agent is an alkyl ethoxysulfate having a linear or branched alkyl group having 12-16 carbon atoms and having 1-4 moles of ethylene oxide in one molecule thereof or a linear or branched alkylsulfate having 12-16 carbon atoms on average.
