Abstract
The present invention is directed to a cleansing composition comprising: (a) at least one nonionic surfactant; (b) at least one amphoteric surfactant; (c) at least one component selected from (i) a nonionic thickener or (ii)(1) a cationic agent combined with (ii)(2) an anionic surfactant, or a mixture of nonionic thickener plus cationic agent and/or anionic surfactant; and (d) water.
Claims17
An aqueous cleansing composition comprising:
- (a) from about 6% to about 20% of at least one nonionic surfactant;
- (b) from about 3% to about 10% of at least one amphoteric surfactant selected from the group consisting of betaines, sultaines, amphoacetates, amphoproprionates, and mixtures thereof;
- (c)
- (1) from about 0.01% to about 5% of at least one cationic agent selected from the group consisting of cationic polymers, cationic amines, cationic silanes, and mixtures thereof;
- combined with
- (2) from about 2% to about 8% of an anionic surfactant selected from the group consisting of alkyl sulfates, alkyl ether sulfates, acyl isethionates, acyl glycianates, acyl taurates, acyl amino acids, acyl sarcosinates, sulfosuccinates, sulfonates, alkyl polyglucoside sulfonates and alkyl polyglucoside carboxylates, wherein the alkyl and acyl groups of all these compounds comprise from 6 to 24 carbon atoms;
- and
- (d) from about 40% to about 88% water;
- wherein the amount of the nonionic surfactant (a) present in the final composition is greater than the amount of amphoteric surfactant (b),
- wherein the composition has a cross over frequency of from about 0.1 rad/s to about 30 rad/s,
- wherein the percent amounts being based on the weight percent of each component in the final composition, and
- wherein the pH of the composition is from 4.5 to 8.
