Definitions

  • the present invention relates to novel alkanolamides prepared by the reaction of an alkanolamine and shea butter, preferably mild-processed shea butter (MPSB).
  • Materials of the present invention are useful as cosmetic and personal care ingredients; they thicken shampoos and body washes, stabilize foam, and deliver to the hair and skin highly desirable active ingredients present in shea butter, including natural antioxidants.
  • alkanolamides perform a variety of functions including viscosity enhancement, foam stabilization, emulsif ⁇ cation and detergency. Specific applications include as humectants and hair detanglers.
  • alkanolamides are the reaction product of an alkanolamine and a fatty material.
  • Fatty materials are a class of compounds which include fatty carboxylic acids, fatty methyl esters and fatty glycerides. Sources of fatty materials include coconut, peanut, soybean, and rapeseed oils, fractionated and non- fractionated fatty methyl esters and fatty acids of carbon chains of varying lengths.
  • Variations in carbon chain lengths of the fatty sources can change the properties of alkanolamides.
  • a finished product having as an ingredient Cs to Cio fatty acids exhibit foam stability, but contribute little as thickeners.
  • Ci 2 to Cj 4 fatty acids are particularly useful as foam boosters; they also show good viscosity building properties.
  • Blending alkanolamides of differing carbon chain lengths can help optimize performance of the finished products in which they are incorporated.
  • Lauric-myristic diethanolamides for example, are common ingredients in formulations of high foaming products such as dishwashing detergent, bubble bath and hair shampoo. They also impart emolliency and conditioning effects to skin and hair, making them among the most commonly used alkanolamides in the personal care industry.
  • Higher molecular weight, unsaturated fatty alkanolamides reduce foam and produce good viscosity build.
  • Illustrative are oleic and linoleic alkanolamides which are excellent viscosity builders at low concentrations. This property makes them particularly useful in surfactant-containing formulations that otherwise are difficult to thicken.
  • Higher molecular weight unsaturated products are known to be oxidatively unstable and can interfere with fragrance in finished products.
  • Shea butter is a butter extracted from the kernel of Butrospermum parkii. This plant, also referred to as Vitellaria paradoxa, is native to Africa.

  • R a , R b and R c each have one of the following compositions:
  • R b The average composition of R b is different than R n and R 0 , the latter two being similar.
  • the Rb moiety contains predominantly the unsaturated Ci 8 group (oleyl) while R a and R 0 contain predominantly the saturated C is group (stearyl).
