Abstract
Abstract The compressing aid consists of particles of a synthetic saturated hydrocarbon wax having an average molecular formula of C 48 H 98 , an average molecular mass of about 700, a minimum congealing point of about 204° F. and an average particle size of about 10 microns. For greater ease in dispersion during blending of ingredients, the wax particles may be coated with 0.1 to 1.0% by weight of a lubricant such as dimethyl polysiloxane and low viscosity esters of C 10 to C 18 fatty acids or alcohols such as isopropyl myristate, lauryl lactate and ethylhexyl palmitate.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim
94 words
A compressing aid for cosmetic pressed powders, said aid consisting essentially of particles of a synthetic saturated hydrocarbon wax having an average molecular formula of C 48 H 98 , an average molecular mass of about 700, a minimum congealing point of about 204° F., and an average particle size of about 10 microns, said wax particles being coated with an amount of lubricant equal to from about 0.1 to 1.0% of the weight of said wax, said lubricant selected from the group consisting of dimethyl polysiloxane, isopropyl myristate, lauryl lactate and ethylhexyl palmitate.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
94 words
A compressing aid for cosmetic pressed powders, said aid consisting essentially of particles of a synthetic saturated hydrocarbon wax having an average molecular formula of C 48 H 98 , an average molecular mass of about 700, a minimum congealing point of about 204° F., and an average particle size of about 10 microns, said wax particles being coated with an amount of lubricant equal to from about 0.1 to 1.0% of the weight of said wax, said lubricant selected from the group consisting of dimethyl polysiloxane, isopropyl myristate, lauryl lactate and ethylhexyl palmitate.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
86 words
In a cosmetic pressed powder comprising a powder component, a pigment component and a compressing aid, the improvement which comprises a compressing aid consisting essentially of particles of a synthetic saturated hydrocarbon wax having an average molecular formula of C 48 H 98 , an average molecular mass of about 700, a minimum congealing point of about 204° F. and an average particle size of about 10 microns, and wherein the amount of said wax used is effective to impart compressibility and adhesion to the powder.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
86 words
In a cosmetic pressed powder comprising a powder component, a pigment component and a compressing aid, the improvement which comprises a compressing aid consisting essentially of particles of a synthetic saturated hydrocarbon wax having an average molecular formula of C 48 H 98 , an average molecular mass of about 700, a minimum congealing point of about 204° F. and an average particle size of about 10 microns, and wherein the amount of said wax used is effective to impart compressibility and adhesion to the powder.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
31 words
The pressed powder of claim 2, wherein the compressing aid is used in the amount of about 5 to 10% by weight based on the total weight of the pressed powder.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
47 words
