Cosmetic and dermatological detersive preparations containing acrylate copolymers, alkyl glucosides and alcohols

Abstract

Cosmetic and dermatological washing formulation comprises: (i) a surfactant alkyl-glucoside of formula (I); (ii) a gel-forming acrylate-alkyl acrylate copolymers (II); and (iii) a branched and/or linear aliphatic 2-6C alcohol (optionally substituted by one or more OH). R = 1-24C alkyl.

1 . Cosmetic and dermatological detersive preparations comprising: 
 (a) an effective amount of one or more surface-active substances selected from the group consisting of alkyl glucosides, which have the structural formula                           where R is a branched or unbranched alkyl radical having from 1 to 24 carbon atoms,    (b) an effective amount of one or more gel-forming acrylate-alkyl acrylate copolymers and    (c) branched and/or unbranched aliphatic alcohols having 2-6 carbon atoms and one or more OH functions.    
     
     
         2 . Preparations according to  claim 1 , characterized in that R in the structural formula of the alkyl glucoside is selected from the group consisting of unbranched alkyl radicals, the hexyl, heptyl, octyl, nonyl, decyl, undecyl, dodecyl and tetradecyl radicals being preferred.  
     
     
         3 . Preparations according to  claim 1 , characterized in that the total amount of one or more surface-active alkyl glucosides used according to the invention in the finished cosmetic or dermatological preparations is selected from the range 0.1-25.0% by weight, preferably 0.5-15.0% by weight, based on the total weight of the preparations.  
     
     
         4 . Preparations according to  claim 1 , characterized in that the acrylate-alkyl acrylate copolymer(s) are selected from the group consisting of so-called carbomers, in particular from the group consisting of carbomers having the structure:  
       
         
           
           
               
               
           
         
       
       where R′ is a long-chain alkyl radical, and x and y are numbers which symbolize the respective stoichiometric amount of each of the comonomers.  
     
     
         5 . Preparations according to  claim 1 , characterized in that the alcohols are selected from the group consisting of ethylene glycol, propylene glycol, glycerol, isopropyl alcohol, 1,3-butylene glycol and 2,3-butylene glycol.  
     
     
         6 . Preparations according to  claim 1 , characterized in that the total amount of one or more surface-active acrylate-alkyl acrylate copolymers used according to the invention in the finished cosmetic or dermatological preparations is selected from the range 0.1-10.0% by weight, preferably 0.5-2.5% by weight, based on the total weight of the preparations.  
     
     
         7 . Preparations according to  claim 1 , characterized in that the total amount of one or more alcohols used according to the invention in the finished cosmetic or dermatological preparations is selected from the range 0.1-25.0% by weight, preferably 0.5-15.0% by weight, based on the total weight of the preparations.  
     
     
         8 . Preparations according to  claim 1 , characterized in that they are in the form of gels.  
     
     
         9 . Preparations according to  claim 8 , characterized in that gaseous, solid and/or liquid objects are embedded in the gels.
