Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim 335 words
A process for preparing a clear gel for bleaching the hair comprising (a) admixing a gelifiable liquid consisting essentially of a mixture of (1) a non-ionic compound selected from the group consisting of (i) polyoxyethylenated fatty alcohol having 8-18 carbon atoms and oxyethylenated with 2-30 moles of ethylene oxide, (ii) polyglycerolated fatty alcohol having 8--18 carbon atoms and glycerolated with 1-6 moles of glycerol, (iii) polyoxyethylenated alkyphenol wherein the alkyl moiety has 8-9 carbon atoms and oxyethylenated with 2-30 moles of ethylene oxide, and (iv) polyglycerolated alkyphenol wherein the alkyl moiety has 8-9 carbon atoms and glycerolated with 4-6 moles of glycerol and (2) a solvent selected from the group consisting of a lower aliphatic alcohol, a glycol and a glycol ether, with (b) an oxidizing solution comprisng a solution of H 2 O 2 and an incompatible cationic polymer dissolved therein, said incompatible cationic polymer being one which when mixed with an incompatible polymer test support in an amount from 0.5 to 5 weight percent of said test support results in the formation of a cloud or precipitate, or a separation of said test support into two phases, said test support consisting essentially of 20 g of a nonyl phenol oxyethylenated with 9 moles of ethylene oxide, 24 g of nonyl phenol oxyethylenated with 4 moles of ethylene oxide, 9 g of monobutylether of ethylene glycol, 10 g of propylene glycol, 2.4 g of 40 weight percent aqueous solution of the pentasodium salt of diethylene triamine pentacetic acid, 10 g of ammonia 22° Be' and water is an amount sufficient for 100 g, the resulting admixture containing 5 to 60 weight percent of said nonionic compound and 2 to 20 weight percent of said solvent and wherein said compatible cationic polymer is present in said oxidizing solution in an amount sufficient so that the concentration of said incompatible polymer is between 0.01 and 10 weight percent based on the total weight of the admixture resulting from admixing said gelifiable liquid and said oxidizing solution.
