Hair cleansers

Oils and fats have been important throughout human history not only for food, but also as lubricants, polishes, ointments, and fuel. The reaction of oils and fats with alkali (saponification) produces soap (salts of fatty acids) and glycerin. This chemical process was known to the Romans and continues to be of significant commercial importance. Today, tens of thousands of tons of soap are produced annually from tallow and plant oils. Tallow is a by-product of the meat industry, while the principal plant oils are dependent on extensive plantations—palm and palm kernel oils from Indonesia, Malaysia, and India, and coconut oil from the Philippines and Brazil. Twentieth-century chemists designed more effective synthetic, crude-oil-based surface-active agents (surfactants, e.g., sodium linearalkylbenzene-sulfonate or LAS) for fabric, household, and industrial cleaning applications, and specialty surfactants to meet the needs of consumer products industry such as milder skin and hair cleansers.

In body, skin, and hair cleansers, foam profile is a very important criterion for consumer acceptance. It can be a signal for overall efficacy, premium quality, or a caring dimension and all of this is expressed in terms of mildness to skin, gentleness to hair (a creamy foam), richness in the active ingredient, or the ability to remove body soil [1]. 

Separation of two or more types of surfactants in cosmetics. To separate two or more types of surfactants in cosmetics involves using several detectors or columns as well as studying separation variables in particular pH. Kadono et al. (1987) proposed a reversed-phase LC method using a combination of the UV with RI as detector. A ratio of the UV/RI area versus a retention time that was specific to each surfactant. This method was applied to hair cleanser (shampoos and hair conditioners) containing anionic, cationic, amphoteric and nonionic surfactants.
