PERSONAL CARE COMPOSITION - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18599698 titled 'PERSONAL CARE COMPOSITION
The abstract describes a sulfate-free personal care composition that includes specific surfactants to deliver good cleaning, foaming, lathering, viscosity, and stability.
- The composition contains an acyl taurate surfactant and an N-alkyl acyl taurate surfactant in a specific weight ratio.
- A co-surfactant is included to solubilize the acyl taurate surfactant in the composition.
- The tailored surfactants and co-surfactant work together to provide the desired benefits of the composition.
Potential Applications: - Personal care products such as shampoos, body washes, and facial cleansers. - Industrial cleaning products.
Problems Solved: - Provides sulfate-free cleaning with good foaming and lathering properties. - Ensures stability and viscosity in the composition.
Benefits: - Gentle on the skin. - Environmentally friendly. - Effective cleaning properties.
Commercial Applications: - Manufacturers of personal care products can use this technology to create sulfate-free formulations that deliver excellent cleaning performance.
Questions about the technology: 1. How does the specific weight ratio of surfactants impact the performance of the composition? 2. What sets this sulfate-free composition apart from traditional formulations in terms of cleaning efficacy and stability?
Original Abstract Submitted
An aqueous, sulfate-free personal care composition that provides good cleaning, foaming, lathering, viscosity and stability. The composition includes an acyl taurate surfactant and an N-alkyl acyl taurate surfactant at a weight ratio of acyl taurate to N-alkyl acyl taurate of 1:4 to 50:1. The composition also includes a co-surfactant and water. The N-alkyl acyl taurate surfactant and co-surfactant are specifically tailored to solubilize the acyl taurate surfactant in the composition and thereby deliver the desired composition benefits.
