Abstract
Abstract Granulated bleaching composition, which may especially be used for bleaching hair, in which the granules have been obtained by granulation of a mixture of its various pulverulent constituents by means of two binders: a first binder chosen from the group formed by polyvinyl alcohol, homo- and copolymers of vinylpyrrolidone and their mixtures and a second binder chosen from the group formed by polyalkylene glycols in which the alkylene group is C2 to C4 and which have a molecular weight between 200 and 30,000, and their mixtures, the granules having a particle size between 65 mu m and 800 mu m.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 15
Claim 1
Independent Claim
138 words
A granulated hair bleaching composition constituted by granules, each of said granules containing said hair bleaching composition comprising: (a) an effective amount of a peroxidized derivative to effect bleaching of hair, (b) an amount of an alkaline agent, and (c) a granulation agent comprising first and second binders, said first binder being selected from the group consisting of polyvinyl alcohol, a homopolymer of vinylpyrrolidone, a copolymer of vinylpyrrolidone and a mixture thereof, and said second binder selected from the group consisting of a polyalkylene glycol wherein the alkylene group is a C 2 to C 4 group, having a molecular weight ranging from 200 to 30,000, said granules having a particle size between 65 and 800 μm and said granulation agent being present in an amount not exceeding 25 weight percent of the total weight of said composition.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
138 words
A granulated hair bleaching composition constituted by granules, each of said granules containing said hair bleaching composition comprising: (a) an effective amount of a peroxidized derivative to effect bleaching of hair, (b) an amount of an alkaline agent, and (c) a granulation agent comprising first and second binders, said first binder being selected from the group consisting of polyvinyl alcohol, a homopolymer of vinylpyrrolidone, a copolymer of vinylpyrrolidone and a mixture thereof, and said second binder selected from the group consisting of a polyalkylene glycol wherein the alkylene group is a C 2 to C 4 group, having a molecular weight ranging from 200 to 30,000, said granules having a particle size between 65 and 800 μm and said granulation agent being present in an amount not exceeding 25 weight percent of the total weight of said composition.
