Application shampoo

Excellent foaming in both hard and soft water. Mild to hair and skin. Compatible in alkaline or acid-balanced surfactant systems. Great for soap applications, shampoos and conditioners. 

Betaines are thus especially suitable in personal care applications (shampoos, foam baths, liquid soaps, shower gels, etc.), fabric hand-wash products, and dish-washing products. 

Tea tree oil comes from an evergreen tree native to Australia. The herb has been used as a nonirritating, antimicrobial for cuts stings wounds burns and acne. It can be found in shampoos soaps and lotions. Tea tree oil should not be ingested orally but is effective when used topically for minor cuts and stings. Tea tree oil is used as an antifungal to relieve and control the symptoms of tinea pedis Topical application is most effective when used in a cream with at least 10% tea tree oil. Several commercially prepared ointments are available. The cream is applied to affected areas twice daily for several weeks... 

The applications of alcohol sulfates in consumer products depend on the alkyl chain and in some cases on the cation. Alcohol sulfates with alkyl chains 8 C1() are seldom used in consumer products except occasionally as hydrotropes in liquid detergent formulations. However, alcohol sulfates in the range C10-C18 are used in many commonly used formulations although other surfactants are generally added to enhance their properties. In some of these applications, particularly in shampoos, they compete with alcohol ether sulfates of the same alkyl chain distribution. The pattern of use of alcohol sulfates or alcohol ether sulfates in formulations varies with consumer personal care and laundry washing preferences in different cultural areas of the world. 

All of the aspects and applications described in papers can be traced back to the patent literature [73]. The special or synergistic effect of ether carboxylates in combination with other surfactants is very often the basis, like combinations with alkyl ether sulfates or alkyl sulfates, for shampoos, foambaths, showerbaths, and liquid soaps [9,70,81-85], and the same for amidether carboxylates [71]. 

Sodium a-sulfomethylmyristate is used together with the sodium salt of hardened beef tallow fatty acid to produce a soap with little skin irritation [88]. Shampoos for application to hair as well as skin comprise a-sulfo fatty acid ester salts, fatty acid dialkanolamides, and citric acid. For example, a shampoo that consists of 15% sodium a-sulfoethylmyristate, 3% lauric acid diethanolamide, 0.5% citric acid, and 81.5% water is very effective even in hard water and only slightly irritating to the skin [89]. 

The sulfosuccinate monoester based on undecylenic acid monoethanolamide and its antimicrobial properties was described shortly before [12]. In comparison of shampoos containing different antidandruff agents, this sulfosuccinate s performance was favorably evaluated [13]. It was neutral with respect to lipid replacement on scalp and forehead after application of the respective shampoo. This undecylenic acid-based sulfosuccinate was also found to reduce dandruff formation in another investigation [14]. 

As was described earlier, the organic part of sulfosuccinates can vary widely. Therefore it was to be expected that materials will find their own applications based on the organic part of the molecule. Generally, sulfosuccinates based on lauryl alcohol ethers are applied for all types of mild shampoos and specific sulfosuccinates for extremely mild baby shampoos. 

In carpet shampoos sulfosuccinates are used as the main ingredient, especially in powdered products. For this application products with a good crystallization behavior like DLAS and DLMS are of greater importance. The amount used is 12-30%. A typical formula is as follows ... 

The acid chloride route of the Schotten-Baumann reaction can be carried out continuously [6] while completeness of the reaction can be assured by rapid recirculation of the reaction product [7]. These compounds are used in specialty applications, such as shampoos or soap-syndet toilet bars [8]. 

Siloxane containing copolymeric surfactants also find applications as surfactants in paints and personal care products such as shampoos. 

The most well known application of PHB and poly(3HB-co-3HV) is as substitute for conventional, non-biodegradable plastics used for packaging purposes and derived products [21, 115, 116]. Single-use bottles for shampoos, cosmetics and biodegradable motor-oil have been manufactured from these biopolyesters by common molding techniques. Containers and cups for food products were developed similarly, and bags have been produced from blown films of the material. 

Chemical-based products cover a broad spectrum of materials and forms, ranging from molecules to appliances. Table 16.1-1 shows the various product functional forms, along with examples in major application areas. Examples highlighted in italic are those discussed in this book. Most small molecules such as BTX (benzene-toluene-xyxlene) are sold to chemical and allied products industries while a limited number such as refrigerants and solvents are for sale in the consumer market. In contrast, multicomponent liquid mixtures such as liquid shampoo, semi-solids such as cream and paste, and structured solids such as controlled release herbicide are often sold directly to the consumers. Business-to-consumer sale is even more prevalent for ready-to-use devices and appliances such as diagnostic kits, drinking water filters and air cleaners. 

Alkyl polyglucoside carboxylate (INCI-name Sodium Lauryl Glucose Carboxylate (and) Lauryl Glucoside, Plantapon LGC SORB) is a new anionic surfactant with excellent performance for personal care cleansing applications. In shampoo and shower bath formulations the anionic surfactant shows a good foaming behavior. In body wash applications it improves sensorial effects. These properties make Plantapon LGC SORB suitable for several cosmetic applications, e.g., mild facial wash gel, mild baby shampoo, mild body wash for sensitive skin, wet wipes, and special sulfate-free shampoo applications. 

The primary application of these alcohols is the manufacture of anionic or nonionic surfactants for personal cleansing products, most of which end up in your wastewater treatment plants and rivers. Microorganisms don t chew up branch-chain surfactants as well as they do the straight ones. It used to be, for example that the surfactant based on the sodium salt of dodecyl benzene sulfonate, a 12-carbon branch chained anionic surfactant, was found to be slowing, down water treatment processes. Dodecyl alcohol as a raw material for these surfactants has been largely replaced by laurel alcohol, a 12-carbon straight-chain, linear alcohol. If you look at the bottle next time you shampoo your hair and rinse, you ll see sulfonates based on laurel alcohol listed, but none based on dodecyl. 

Alcohol sulfates (R — 0S03"Na ) - alcohol reacted with suihir trioxide then neutralized with sodium hydroxide. Applications include shampoo, bar soaps, and other personal care products laundry and dishwashing soap textiles and additives to emulsion polymerization. 

Alcohol ether sulfates (R0(CH2CH20)S03"Na-") - alcohol ethoxy-late reacted with sulfur trioxide and then neutralized in NaOH. Application s include dishwashing liquids and shampoos, home laundry powders, and personal care products. 

Cosmetic Rinse off Preparations. In certain cosmetic products, tor example hair shampoos, it is not possible to use complexing agents because of the irritation of mucous membranes. Here a low sensitivity of surfactants to water hardness is a precondition for their application. Foam formation is generally considered to be a measure of shampoo quality (Table V). With increase in water hardness the foam volume of alkyl sulfates decreases very much, whereas with the corresponding alkyl ether sulfates this decrease is relatively small. For cosmetic applications, the good skin compatibility and low irritation to mucous membranes of alkyl ether sulfates is of high importance (37). 

Dandruff is a form of seborrhoeic dermatitis. Management of dandruff lies with the application of a mild detergent shampoo once or twice a week. Shampoos containing coal tar may be recommended however, the use of such shampoos is not first-line treatment. Betnovate lotion containing betamethasone, a potent corticosteroid, may be useful in severe dandruff. 

Head lice Shampoo Shampoo hair, towel dry, apply to scalp, leave on for 10 minutes and rinse. Remove nits with nit comb. Repeat application if live lice present 7 days after initial treatment. 

Medicine and Nutrition. A stabilized buffered suspension of selenium sulfide has been marketed for many years as Selsun Blue (Abbott Laboratories) for control of seborrheic dermatitis of the scalp. A similar sulfur or selenium sulfide shampoo containing a metallic cation complex has been prepared (122). Topical application of selenium sulfide controls dermatitis, pruritis, and mange in dogs (see Cosmetics Veterinarydrugs). 

C12H22O, Mr 182.30, 25 0.861-0.870, ng 1.453-1.461, a colorless to slightly yellow liquid with a complex wood floral note with amber and violet nuances. It is used in perfume oils for a wide range of applications, especially in perfume oils for soaps, shower gels and shampoos. 

Despite their low (photo)stability, chlorophylls, or rather their derivatives, have found some applications, especially in the nutrition industry. In Europe the food additive E140 is chi, and E141 is chlorophyllin (a semisynthetic sodium/copper derivative of chlorophyll), and they are used in cakes, beverages, sweets, icecream etc. As color No 125 they find applications in toothpaste, as a soap pigment and in shampoos. The older literature also... 

Lindane (Kwell, etc) is available as a shampoo or lotion. For pediculosis capitis or pubis, 30 mL of shampoo is applied to dry hair on the scalp or genital area for 4 minutes and then rinsed off. No additional application is indicated unless living lice are present 1 week after treatment. Then reapplication may be required. 

Initial therapy consisting of twice daily applications of a medium strength topical corticosteroid combined with once daily topical calcipotriene should provide adequate control for this patient s localized psoriasis. A coal tar shampoo should be initiated for her scalp psoriasis with nightly application of a corticosteroid solution to recalcitrant plaques. 

Ketoconazole, 1% shampoo, apply every 3-4 days Nizoral A-D Synthetic azole antifungal agent with activity versus Pityrosporum ovale, a fungus that may cause seborrhea and dandruff. Massage over entire scalp for 3 minutes. Rinse thoroughly and repeat application.
