AI Technical Summary
Existing soluble solid shampoo articles containing disodium cocoyl glutamate form deposits on hair when used with hard water, and there is a need for personal care products that are substantially free of sulfate-based surfactants.
Formulating soluble solid shampoo articles with a polymer structuring agent (1-60% by weight) and a surfactant system comprising sulfonate-containing anionic surfactants (5-90% by weight), with less than 5% glutamate anionic surfactants and no sulfate-based surfactants, to reduce deposits and improve user experience.
The formulation reduces deposits and improves user experience by enhancing cleanliness, reducing residue, and allowing a wider pH range during manufacturing, especially when used with hard water.
