[0005] , 5~20 , 1~4 , , 4 , is independently selected from linear or branched C 1~4 alkyl groups, and each R 3 is independently selected from linear or branched C 1~4 alkyl groups, and each R 4 is independently selected from linear or branched C 5~20 alkyl groups.

[0005] Hair cleansing is a pervasive element of personal hygiene. Hair cleansing facilitates the removal of dirt, bacteria, and other substances recognized as harmful to the hair or the individual. Cleansing formulations typically contain surfactants to facilitate the removal of substances accumulated on the hair. Unfortunately, cleansing formulations remove both undesirable and desirable substances from the hair. For example, cleansing formulations often undesirably remove oil from the hair, which acts to protect the hair from moisture loss. Removing excess oil from the hair can make it dry and prone to damage. One solution to this concern is the selection of mild surfactants. Another approach is to incorporate additives that help replace the removed oil through deposition, but this approach has proven difficult to implement, especially in rinse-off applications.

[0006] In addition to shampooing, the practice of coloring and styling can leave chemical and thermal damage to the hair, exacerbating the need for conditioning to improve the hair's appearance and feel.

[0007] In U.S. Patent No. 7,067,499, Erazo-Majewicz et al. disclose personal care and household care product compositions comprising at least one cationic polygalactomannan or a derivative of cationic polygalactomannan, wherein the derivative portion on the cationic derivatized polygalactomannan is selected from the group consisting of alkyl, hydroxyalkyl, alkylhydroxyalkyl, and carboxymethyl, where the alkyl has a carbon chain containing 1 to 22 carbons, and the hydroxyalkyl is selected from the group consisting of hydroxyethyl, hydroxypropyl, and hydroxybutyl, and the at least one cationic polygalactomannan or derivative of cationic polygalactomannan has a mean average molecular weight (Mw) with a lower limit of 5,000 and an upper limit of 200,000, has a light transmittance of more than 80% at a light wavelength of 600 nm in a 10% aqueous solution, has a protein content of less than 1.0 wt% of polysaccharides, and has an aldehyde functional group content of at least 0.01 meq / gram.

[0008] Conventional deposition aids such as soluble cationic modified cellulose (e.g., polyquaternium-10), guar hydroxypropyltrimonium chloride, and other cationic polymers (e.g., polyquaternium-6, polyquaternium-7) provide a certain level of deposition in personal care cleansers; however, they exhibit low efficiency, requiring a relatively high incorporation of active substances into the personal care cleanser formulation to achieve the desired results. However, such high levels of active substances (e.g., silicones) negatively impact the consumer experience of the formulation, affecting foaming / bubbling feel and cost.

[0009] Therefore, formulations designed for the care of damaged hair continue to be needed. Furthermore, there is a continued need for new beneficial agent deposition aids with an increased natural origin index (ISO 16128) compared to conventional beneficial agent deposition aids.

[0010] The present invention provides a formulation for the care of damaged hair, comprising a dermatologically acceptable vehicle, a dermatologically acceptable silicone, and a deposition aid polymer which is a cationic dextran polymer comprising a dextran-based polymer functionalized with a quaternary ammonium group, wherein the dextran-based polymer has a weight average molecular weight of 50,000 to 3,000,000 daltons, and the quaternary ammonium group comprises: (i) a quaternary ammonium group of formula (II) bonded to a pendant oxygen on the dextran-based polymer,

[0011] [Chemical formula] (ii) a quaternary ammonium group of formula (III) bonded to a pendant oxygen on the dextran-based polymer, and wherein,

[0012] [Chemical formula] in the formula,

[0013] [Chemical formula] is a pendant oxygen on the dextran-based polymer, X is a divalent linking group, and each R 2 is independently selected from the group consisting of linear or branched C 1~4 alkyl groups, each R 3 is independently selected from linear or branched C 1~4 alkyl groups, and each R 4 is independently selected from linear or branched C 5~20 alkyl groups.

[0014] The present invention provides a method for caring for damaged hair, comprising selecting a formulation of the present invention and applying the formulation to damaged hair, wherein the deposition aid polymer improves the deposition of dermatologically acceptable silicones from the formulation onto damaged hair compared to a formulation that does not contain the deposition aid polymer but is otherwise identical. [Modes for carrying out the invention]

[0015] Surprisingly, silicone deposition from hair care formulations onto damaged hair can be improved by incorporating deposition aid polymers, which are cationic dextran polymers containing a dextran-based polymer functionalized with quaternary ammonium groups, the dextran-based polymer having a weight-average molecular weight of 50,000 to 3,000,000 daltons, and the quaternary ammonium group is (i) a quaternary ammonium group of formula (II) bonded to a pendant oxygen on the dextran-based polymer,

[0057] Herein, several embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail by the following examples.

[0058] Synthesis S1: Synthesis of cationic dextran polymers A 500 mL four-necked round-bottom flask, equipped with a rubber septum cap, a nitrogen inlet, a pressure equalization funnel, a stirring paddle and motor, a subsurface thermocouple connected to a J-KEM controller, and a Friedrich condenser connected to a mineral oil bubbler, was filled with dextran polymer (30.64 g, Polydex, 150 kDa Mw) and deionized water (160.34 g). A 70% aqueous solution of 2,3-epoxypropyltrimethylammonium chloride (27.06 g, QUAB® 151, available from SKW QUAB Chemicals) was added to the addition funnel. The contents of the flask were stirred until the dextran polymer dissolved in the deionized water. While stirring the contents, the apparatus was purged with nitrogen to remove any oxygen introduced into the system. The nitrogen flow rate was approximately 1 bubble per second. The mixture was purged with nitrogen while stirring for 1 hour. Using a plastic syringe, 4.75 g of 25% sodium hydroxide aqueous solution was added to the contents of the flask over several minutes while stirring under nitrogen. The contents of the flask were then stirred under nitrogen for 30 minutes. Next, the contents of the addition funnel were added dropwise to the contents of the flask over several minutes while continuing to stir under nitrogen. After transferring the contents of the dropping funnel to the contents of the flask, the mixture was stirred for 5 minutes. The contents of the flask were then heated using a heating mantle controlled by a J-KEM controller set to 55°C. The contents of the flask were heated to 55°C and maintained therefore for 90 minutes. Next, the contents of the flask were cooled to room temperature while maintaining positive nitrogen pressure inside the flask. Once the contents of the flask reached room temperature, 2.5 g of glacial acetic acid was added. The polymer was recovered by non-solvent precipitation from methanol, and the precipitated polymer was recovered by vacuum filtration using a Buchner funnel and dried overnight under vacuum at 50°C. The resulting branched-chain cationic dextran polymer was an off-white solid (23.9 g) with a volatile matter content of 3.54% and an ash content of 0.11% (as sodium chloride). Volatile matter and ash content were measured as described in ASTM Method D-2364.The Kjeldahl nitrogen content (TKN), measured using a Buchi KjelMaster K-375 automated analyzer, was found to be 1.053% (corrected for volatile substances and ash), which corresponds to a trimethylammonium substitution degree of 0.138.

[0059] Synthesis S2-S4: Synthesis of cationic dextran polymers In synthesis steps S2-S4, the cationic dextran polymer was prepared substantially as described in synthesis step S1, using the reagents and quantities shown in Table 1. The degree of cationic substitution (CS) of QUAB® 151 in the product cationic dextran polymer, measured by NMR, is reported in Table 3. The total Kjeldahl nitrogen (TKN) in the product cationic dextran polymer is also reported in Table 3.

[0061] Synthesis S5: Synthesis of cationic dextran polymers A 500 mL four-necked round-bottom flask, equipped with a rubber septum cap, a nitrogen inlet, a pressure equalization funnel, a stirring paddle and motor, a subsurface thermocouple connected to a J-KEM controller, and a Friedrich condenser connected to a mineral oil bubbler, was filled with dextran-based polymer (125.97 g, 21.4% Polydex aqueous dextran), N,N-dimethyloctylamine (9.83 g), and epichlorohydrin (5.69 g). The contents of the flask were stirred at 70 rpm. While stirring, the headspace inside the flask was purged with a slow, steady flow of nitrogen (approximately one bubble per second) for 1 hour to remove all entrained oxygen from the apparatus.

[0062] After purging with nitrogen for one hour, heat was applied to the contents of the flask using a heated mantle and a J-KEM control device (set to 70°C). The contents of the flask were maintained at 70°C for 5 hours while stirring under nitrogen. During this time, the color of the contents of the flask changed from yellow to dark brown, and the viscosity increased significantly as the reaction progressed.

[0063] Next, the contents of the flask were cooled in a water bath while maintaining a positive nitrogen pressure inside the flask. The solid polymer product was recovered from the flask contents by non-solvent precipitation with acetone. A Waring blender was filled with 500 mL of acetone, and approximately 20 mL of the polymer solution was slowly and continuously added at a moderate mixing rate using a disposable plastic syringe. The polymer was recovered by vacuum filtration through a Buchner funnel with fine frit. The Waring blender was filled with fresh acetone, and non-solvent precipitation of the remaining aqueous solution was continued. The polymer was air-dried for a short time, and then dried overnight at 50°C in vacuum. The dried polymer was manually ground using a mortar and pestle and screened through a US Standard 30 sieve.

[0064] The resulting polymer was obtained as a white solid (29.63 g), with a volatile matter content of 2.47%, an ash content (as sodium chloride) of 1.84%, a Kjeldahl nitrogen content (corrected for ash and volatile matter) of 1.442%, and a correspondence value to CS of 0.225.

[0065] Synthesis S6: Synthesis of cationic dextran polymers A 500 mL four-necked round-bottom flask, equipped with a rubber septum cap, a nitrogen inlet, a pressure equalization funnel, a stirring paddle and motor, a subsurface thermocouple connected to a J-KEM controller, and a Friedrich condenser connected to a mineral oil bubbler, was filled with dextran-based polymer (126.92 g, 21.4% Polydex aqueous dextran), N,N-dimethyldodecylamine (13.54 g), and epichlorohydrin (5.84 g). The contents of the flask were stirred at 70 rpm. While stirring, the headspace inside the flask was purged with a slow, steady flow of nitrogen (approximately one bubble per second) for 1 hour to remove all entrained oxygen from the apparatus.

[0066] After purging with nitrogen for one hour, heat was applied to the contents of the flask using a heated mantle and a J-KEM control device (set to 70°C). The contents of the flask were maintained at 70°C for 5 hours while stirring under nitrogen. During this time, the color of the contents of the flask changed from yellow to dark brown, and the viscosity increased significantly as the reaction progressed.

[0067] Next, the contents of the flask were cooled in a water bath while maintaining a positive nitrogen pressure inside the flask. The solid polymer product was recovered from the flask contents by non-solvent precipitation with acetone. A Waring blender was filled with 500 mL of acetone, and approximately 20 mL of the polymer solution was slowly and continuously added at a moderate mixing rate using a disposable plastic syringe. The polymer was recovered by vacuum filtration through a Buchner funnel with fine frit. The Waring blender was filled with fresh acetone, and non-solvent precipitation of the remaining aqueous solution was continued. The polymer was air-dried for a short time, and then dried overnight at 50°C in vacuum. The dried polymer was manually ground using a mortar and pestle and screened through a US Standard 30 sieve.

[0068] The resulting polymer was obtained as a white solid (29.96 g), with a volatile matter content of 2.35%, an ash content (as sodium chloride) of 1.99%, a Kjeldahl nitrogen content (corrected for ash and volatile matter) of 1.079%, and a correspondence value to CS of 0.163.

[0069] Synthesis S7: Synthesis of cationic dextran polymers A 500 mL four-necked round-bottom flask, equipped with a rubber septum cap, a nitrogen inlet, a pressure equalization funnel, a stirring paddle and motor, a subsurface thermocouple connected to a J-KEM controller, and a Friedrich condenser connected to a mineral oil bubbler, was filled with dextran-based polymer (25.0 g, Sigma-Aldrich catalog number D4876) and deionized water (100 g). The contents of the flask were stirred at 70 rpm. While stirring, the headspace inside the flask was purged with a slow, steady flow of nitrogen (approximately one bubble per second) for 1 hour to remove all entrained oxygen from the apparatus.

[0070] The addition funnel was filled with a 70% aqueous solution of 2,3-epoxypropyltrimethylammonium chloride (30.0 g; QUAB® 151, available from SKW QUAB Chemicals) and a 40% aqueous solution of 3-chloro-2-hydroxypropyl-lauryl-dimethylammonium chloride (39.3 g; QUAB® 342, available from SKW QUAB Chemicals).

[0071] While stirring the contents of the flask under nitrogen, 11 g of 25% sodium hydroxide aqueous solution was added to the contents of the flask over 2 minutes. Next, the contents of the flask were stirred continuously for 1 hour, and then the contents of the addition funnel were added to the contents of the flask dropwise over 3 minutes. Next, the contents of the flask were stirred for 20 minutes, and then heated for 1.5 hours using a heating mantle with a setpoint temperature of 55°C. Next, the contents of the flask were cooled in an ice bath while maintaining a positive nitrogen pressure inside the flask. Next, the contents of the flask were neutralized by adding glacial acetic acid (1.66 g). Next, the contents of the flask were stirred under nitrogen for 10 minutes. Next, the polymer product was recovered from the contents of the flask by non-solvent precipitation with methanol, using approximately 1 L of methanol. Next, the methanol was decanted, and the polymer product was placed in a dish and vacuum-dried overnight at 50°C.

[0072] The recovered polymer product was sieved through a 30-mesh screen to obtain a fluid white solid (27.2 g) with a volatile content of 5.13% and an ash content of 0.56% (as sodium acetate). The total Kjeldahl nitrogen content in the polymer product was determined to be 1.329% by weight.

[0073] Synthesis S8-S10: Synthesis of cationic dextran polymers In synthesis steps S8-S10, the cationic dextran polymer was prepared substantially as described in synthesis step S7, but the reagent supply was varied as shown in Table 2. The cationic substitution degrees (CS) of QUAB® 151 and QUAB® 342 in the product cationic dextran polymer, as measured by NMR, are reported in Table 3. The total Kjeldahl nitrogen (TKN) in the product cationic dextran polymer is also reported in Table 3.

[0076] Comparative Examples CF1-CF7 and Examples F1-F4: Shampoo formulations Shampoo formulations were prepared in each of Comparative Examples CF1-CF7 and Examples F1-F7 to have the formulations shown in Table 4. Specifically, the shampoo formulations were prepared in each of Comparative Examples CF1-CF7 and Examples F1-F4 using the following process: In a container, a 30% by weight aqueous solution of sodium lauryl sulfate was dissolved in 20 g of deionized water and heated to 70°C while constantly stirring. Next, the polymers shown in Table 4 were added to the container while stirring (for example, guar hydroxypropyltrimonium chloride and cationic dextran were prepared according to one of the synthesis methods S1-S10). Once the polymers were dissolved, tetrasodium EDTA was then added to the container. When the contents of the container reached 70°C, a 45% by weight aqueous solution of the PEG-150 pentaerythrityl tetrastearate portion and a 30% by weight aqueous solution of cocamide MEA were added to the container. Next, a 30% by weight solution of cocamidopropyl betaine was added to the container. Finally, the contents of the container were allowed to cool. Once at room temperature, phenoxyethanol, methylisothiazolinone preservative, and an aqueous emulsion of dimethiconol and TEA-dodecylbenzenesulfonate with a solid content of 50% by weight were added to the container. The final pH of the product shampoo formulation was then adjusted to pH 5 using sodium hydroxide or citric acid as needed, and sufficient water was added to adjust the total weight of the formulation to 100 g. Additional PEG-150 pentaerythrityl tetrastearate was added to adjust the viscosity of the final formulation to a Brookfield viscosity of 11,000 cP, measured using a No. 6 spindle at 30 rpm under laboratory conditions.
