Abstract
An aqueous structured surfactant composition, contains water, one or more anionic surfactants, and one or more amine oxides, and exhibits shear-thinning viscosity, is capable of suspending water insoluble or partially water soluble components, and uses a low relative amount of structuring agent and/or surfactant.
Claims25
An aqueous structured surfactant composition, comprising water, one or more anionic surfactants, and one or more amine oxides, said composition exhibiting shear-thinning viscosity and is capable of suspending water insoluble or partially water soluble components.
A surfactant blend, comprising, based on 100 parts by weight of the blend, from about 10 parts by weight to about 75 parts by weight of one or more anionic surfactants, and from greater than 1 part by weight to about 30 parts by weight of one or more amine oxides.
A method for making an aqueous structured surfactant composition, comprising mixing water, one or more anionic surfactants, and one or more amine oxides, wherein the composition exhibits shear-thinning viscosity and is capable of suspending water insoluble or partially water soluble components.
A multi-phase composition comprising:
- a first phase that comprises water, one or more anionic surfactants, and one or more amine oxide, exhibits shear-thinning viscosity, and is capable of suspending water insoluble or partially water soluble components, and
- one or more additional phases that are at least substantially distinct from such first phase.
A personal care composition, comprising water, one or more anionic surfactants and one or more amine oxide, said composition exhibiting shear-thinning viscosity and is capable of suspending water insoluble or partially water soluble components.
