Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim 142 words
A lotion shampoo composition comprising: (A) from about 11% to about 20% of a surfactant selected from the group consisting of alkyl sulfates, ethoxylated alkyl sulfates and mixtures thereof; (B) from about 4% to about 6% of a suspending agent selected from the group consisting of ethylene glycol esters of fatty acids having from about 16 to about 22 carbon atoms, alkanol amides of fatty acids having from about 16 to about 22 carbon atoms, alkyl (C 16-22 ) dimethyl amine oxides and mixtures thereof; (C) from about 2% to about 4% of an alkanolamide of a fatty acid having from about 8 to about 14 carbon atoms; (D) from about 0.2% to about 4% of a particulate antidandruff agent; and (E) from about 35% to about 90% water, wherein said composition is substantially free of alkali metal chlorides and ammonium chloride.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 142 words
A lotion shampoo composition comprising: (A) from about 11% to about 20% of a surfactant selected from the group consisting of alkyl sulfates, ethoxylated alkyl sulfates and mixtures thereof; (B) from about 4% to about 6% of a suspending agent selected from the group consisting of ethylene glycol esters of fatty acids having from about 16 to about 22 carbon atoms, alkanol amides of fatty acids having from about 16 to about 22 carbon atoms, alkyl (C 16-22 ) dimethyl amine oxides and mixtures thereof; (C) from about 2% to about 4% of an alkanolamide of a fatty acid having from about 8 to about 14 carbon atoms; (D) from about 0.2% to about 4% of a particulate antidandruff agent; and (E) from about 35% to about 90% water, wherein said composition is substantially free of alkali metal chlorides and ammonium chloride.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 32 words
A shampoo composition according to claim 1 wherein the surfactant is selected from the group consisting of ammonium alkyl sulfate, sodium alkyl sulfate, sodium ethoxy(3)alkyl sulfate, triethanolamine alkyl sulfate and mixtures thereof.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 27 words
A shampoo composition according to claim 2 wherein the suspending agent is selected from the group consisting of ethylene glycol monostearate, ethylene glycol distearate and mixtures thereof.

Claim 6
Dependent Claim 41 words
A shampoo composition according to claim 4 wherein the surfactant is sodium alkyl sulfate wherein the alkyl group contains from about 8 to about 18 carbon atoms and wherein the pH of said composition is from about 4 to about 6.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 13 words
A shampoo composition according to claim 5 wherein the alkanolamide is coconut monoethanolamide.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 15 words
