Abstract
Abstract Copolymers selectively hydrogenated on the olefinic double bond and composed of A) 50 to 65% by weight styrene, B) 35 to 50% by weight butadiene and C) 0 to 5% by weight other copolymerizable monomers are used in cosmetic and pharmaceutical compositions.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim
94 words
A cosmetic composition which forms a layer that is not easily washed off skin with water, consisting essentially of 1-20 wt. % of a random copolymer having a molecular weight of 75,000-130,000 composed of 50-65 wt. % of styrene, 30-50 wt. % butadiene and 0-5 wt. % of other copolymerizable monomers, wherein at least 97% of the olefinic double bonds in said copolymer have been hydrogenated and not more than 5% of the aromatic unsaturations are hydrogenated; mixed in an oil-in-water or a water-in-oil emulsion containing an effective amount of a cosmetically active component.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
94 words
A cosmetic composition which forms a layer that is not easily washed off skin with water, consisting essentially of 1-20 wt. % of a random copolymer having a molecular weight of 75,000-130,000 composed of 50-65 wt. % of styrene, 30-50 wt. % butadiene and 0-5 wt. % of other copolymerizable monomers, wherein at least 97% of the olefinic double bonds in said copolymer have been hydrogenated and not more than 5% of the aromatic unsaturations are hydrogenated; mixed in an oil-in-water or a water-in-oil emulsion containing an effective amount of a cosmetically active component.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
27 words
The composition of claim 1 wherein said copolymer is composed of 52-57 wt. % styrene, 43-48 wt. % butadiene and 0-5 wt. % of other copolymerizable monomers.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
42 words
A process for the topical application of a cosmetic comprising: forming a layer which is not easily washed off skin with water by applying an effective amount of the composition of claim 1 to a subject in need thereof in need thereof.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
103 words
A process for the manufacture of a cosmetic composition that forms a layer which is not easily washed off skin with water consisting essentially of: adding 1-20 wt. % of a random copolymer having a molecular weight of 75,000-130,000 composed of 50-65 wt. % of styrene, 30-50 wt. % of butadiene and 0.14 5 wt. % of other copolymerizable monomers, wherein at least 97% of the olefinic double bonds in said copolymer have been hydrogenated, and not more than 5% of the aromatic unsaturations are hydrogenated to an oil-in-water or a water in oil emulsion containing an effective amount of cosmetically active component.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
103 words
A process for the manufacture of a cosmetic composition that forms a layer which is not easily washed off skin with water consisting essentially of: adding 1-20 wt. % of a random copolymer having a molecular weight of 75,000-130,000 composed of 50-65 wt. % of styrene, 30-50 wt. % of butadiene and 0.14 5 wt. % of other copolymerizable monomers, wherein at least 97% of the olefinic double bonds in said copolymer have been hydrogenated, and not more than 5% of the aromatic unsaturations are hydrogenated to an oil-in-water or a water in oil emulsion containing an effective amount of cosmetically active component.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
29 words
The process of claim 4 wherein said copolymer is composed of 52-57 wt. % of styrene, 43-48 wt. % of butadiene, and 0-5 wt. % of other copolymerizable monomers.
