Abstract
A spray shampoo composition is formulated having a viscosity less than 40 CPS but with an actives concentration of 8% to 15%. This is accomplished by combining anionic detergents such as ammonium laurel sulfate and ammonium laureth sulfate, along with amphoteric surfactants such as cocamidopropyl betaine, along with nonionic surfactants such as cocamide DEA and lauramide DEA, wherein the detergent is substantially free from neutral salt thixatropes. This provides a highly concentrated detergent which has a viscosity which permits atomization of the detergent when dispensed from a finger pump sprayer.
Claims7
In combination, a spray dispenser and a shampoo composition, said shampoo composition having a viscosity less than 40 CPS, formed from the combination of anionic surfactants, amphoteric surfactants and nonionic surfactants at a combined concentration of said surfactants of 8% to 15% wherein said composition is substantially free from neutral thixotropic salts.
A detergent composition contained in a pump sprayer wherein said detergent composition has an actives content of about 10% to 12% and a viscosity less than about 30 CPS, wherein said detergent composition consists essentially of ammonium laurel sulfate, ammonium laureth sulfate, cocamidopropyl betaine, cocamide DEA and lauramide DEA and wherein said detergent is substantially free of neutral thixotropic salts.
