Abstract
Hair fixation with fluorine containing acrylate or methacrylate terpolymers or with mixtures thereof with known non-fluorine containing hair fixing polymers.
Claims18
A process for fixing hair which comprises applying thereto an effective amount of a hair fixing composition comprising a vehicle containing an effective hair fixing amount of at least one fluoroterpolymer;
- said fluoroterpolymer having a molecular weight of the order of 10.sup.3 to 10.sup.6 consisting essentially by weight of:
- a. 60 to 85% of at least one ester of the formula:
- ##STR19## in which:
- i. n is a number having an average value of from 3 to 20;
- and
- ii. R.sup.1 is hydrogen or lower alkyl having 1 to 4 carbons;
- b. 10 to 30% of an ester of formula:
- ##STR20## in which:
- i. A is alkyl having 5 to 15 carbons;
- ii. n' is a whole number having an average value of about from 20 to 45;
- and
- iii. R.sup.2 is hydrogen or lower alkyl having 1 to 4 carbons;
- c. 2 to 10% of an amine ester of formula:
- ##STR21## or the N-oxide or quaternary amine salt thereof in which:
- i. R.sup.4 is hydrogen or lower alkyl having 1 to 4 carbons;
- ii. R.sup.5 is a divalent straight chain or branched chain aliphatic hydrocarbon radical having 1 to 6 carbons;
- and
- iii. R.sup.6 and R.sup.7 are lower alkyl having 1 to 4 carbons.
