COMPOSITION
New experimentalhigh chargedensityPQ-67 polymersbelongto the family of high
viscosityquaternizedhydroxyethylcellulose(HEC) derivativeswith cationic substitution of trimethyl ammoniumand dimethyldodecylammonium(Figure 1A) describedin
(1) and (2) and recently commercializedfor personalcare applicationsby Amerchol
Corporationand the Dow ChemicalCompanyunderthe trade nameof PolymersSoftCAT TMSL and SK. Similar to the commerciallyavailablegrades,experimentalPQ-67
samples
described
in thispaperwereproducedby reactingHEC polymerswith 3-chloro2-hydroxypropyldodecyldimethyl
ammonium chloride and 2,3-epoxypropyltrimethyl
ammoniumchloridein aqueousisopropanol

Severalstructuralparametersof cationiccellulosicether derivatives,suchas PQ-67
(Figure 1A) and their non-hydrophobic
structuralanalogs,PQ-10 (Fig. lB) polymers
havea profoundimpacton theirperformance
on hairandskin.Theseparameters
include
molecularweight (Mw), cationiccharge(CS), as well as the degreeof the side chain
substitutionwith ethyleneoxide (EO MS). Examplesof such structure-performance
relationships
for PQ-10 polymersin surfactantsystemswere previouslydescribedin
industrysources
(3-6). On the otherhand,the structuralpotentialof PQ-67 compositionsis muchlessexploredandunderstood.
In additionto the structuralfeaturesalready
presentin PQ-10, the structureof PQ-67 polymersoffersonemorevariable-thedegree
of hydrophobic
substitution(HS), whichis anotherusefultool for modifying,controlling, and improvingcertainperformance
aspectsof thesepolymerson hair (1) and skin
(7). The newresultspresented
belowdemonstrate
that increasing
the cationicchargeto
above2 wt.% N in the hydrophobically
modifiedquaternizedHEC polymers,suchas
PQ-67, resultedin a severalfold boostof their depositionand deliveryproperties,
and
significantlyimprovedthe overallperformance
of thesepolymerson hair, especially
non-chemically
treated,coarse,difficult to manageand unruly hair types.
The highchargedensityPQ-67 polymerswereevaluated
in shampoo
formulations
using
objectivequantitativelab methodsand subjectivepanel evaluationon hair tresses.
Commercialconditioningpolymers:PQ-67 with chargedensitylessthen 1.45 meq/g

PERFORMANCE
IN SHAMPOOS
WITH
SILICONES
The principalintent of shampooing
is to cleanthe hair. However,productsthat are
designedsolelyfor cleansingcanleavehair tangledand unmanageable
whenwet, and
raspydry and dull-lookingupon drying ((1) and references
therein).
As previouslydescribed
in (1), manyconditioningpolymersandvariousotherperformanceingredients,e.g. insolublesilicones,
canimprovethe hair conditionby reducing
the combingfriction of hair and providinga soft, smoothfeel and healthy, shiny
appearance.
Cationicpolymers,suchasPQ-10, PQ-67, and cationicguar, areknownto
workin theseways,in thesesystems,
aloneor in combination
with otheractives.They
are assumedto form a polymersurfactant
complex(coacervate
phase)that separates
and
precipitatesontothe hair during the rinse-offcycle(1,8-10). Coacervates
canoptionally
incorporateperformanceingredientssuchas silicones,fragrance,sunscreens,
and other
benefitagentsthusassisting
in their deposition
on hair (1,3,4). Experimental
polymers
describedin this paperare conjecturedto performalongthis line.
Depositionof silicones

Forexample,aswe
previouslydescribedin (1) and the SoftCAT product literature, the low to medium
chargedensity(-1.0 to 1.45 wt.% N) PQ-67 polymersideallysuitthe needsof bleached
damagedhair. They do not overloadthis susceptible-to-cationic-deposition
hair type
while maximizingthe depositionof muchneededsiliconeascomparedto cationicguar
and PQ-10 polymers.Depositionof siliconeon virgin hair aswell ason any "intermediate" hair type variessignificantlydependingon a specificshampooformulation.Examplesof systemswherehigh-viscosityhigh-chargePQ-10 gradesoutperformedtheir
cationicguar counterpartshave beenpreviouslydescribedin (11). As we showlater,

studywasto
furtherexploreandtune structuralparameters
of PQ-67 polymersin orderto closethis
gap. We, therefore,beganour investigationwith the Formulation
A, wherethe shortcomingwasfirst identified,and then expendedour evaluationscopeto includeother
systems.
Conditioningperformance
of two prototypeshampoo
systems
described
belowis largely
dueto the presence
of silicones
and their ability to reachhair and staybehind(in small
amounts)after the rinse-offcycleis complete.Ability to depositsiliconeis therefore
crucialin thesesystemsandgreatlycontributesto the overallconditioningeffect.On the
otherhand,the contributionof the cationicconditioningpolymersandotheringredients
foundin shampoos
canalsoplay an importantrole in the overallperformance.
In order
to accountfor theseeffectsandmakesurethat the performance
differences
arelikely to
be noticedand appreciated
by the end consumer,
we includedsubjectivepanelstudies
on hair tresses in our evaluation.

siliconewas extractedfrom the hair by a 50/50 (v/v) methyl isobutyl ketone/toluene
solution.The siliconecontent was measured,and then the microgramsof siliconeper
gram of hair wascalculated.
Depositionof siliconeon Europeanvirgin brown hair from the prototypeShampooA
formulatedwith PQ-10 polymers,PQ-67 polymers,and cationicguar is shownon
Figure2A. Accordingto this data,increasingthe chargesubstitutionin PQ-10 polymers
(HS = 0) resultedin moresiliconedepositedon hair. A moderateincreasefrom N45 to
95 microgramsof siliconeper gram of hair was observed.This trend becamemore
pronouncedin the PQ-67 group comparedto PQ-10. The sameincreaseof cationic
chargefrom -1.0 to 1.8 wt.% N resultedin a severalfold boostof siliconedeposition
from PQ-67 formulas:from -45 to 215 microgramsof silicone.

Furtherstudiesrevealedthat evenminimal amountof hydrophobe,suchas,for example,
the low level hydrophobicsubstitutionpresentin the commercialproductsSoftCAT
SL-5, SK-M, and SK-H, was sufficientto observethe significantboost in silicone
depositionbetweenPQ-10 and PQ-67 polymers.At the sametime, varying HS in
polymerswith the CS corresponding
to 1.0-1.8 wt.% N did not resultin significant
changesin siliconedeposition.As discussed
earlierand accordingto the data presented
on Figure 2A, the prototypebenchmarkFormulationA preparedwith cationicguar
depositedsignificantlymore silicone(-675 microgramsiliconeper gram of hair) on
virgin brownhair comparedto eithergroupof cationiccellulosicpolymers.In orderto
closethis gap, we focusedon the PQ-67 structureswith the idea of combiningthe
impactsof CS and HS on depositionperformance.The chargesubstitutionwasfurther
increased
and high chargedensitypolymerswerepreparedat threelevelsof hydrophobic
substitution:
low,medium,
andhigh•2 (Fig.2B).According
to thedatapresented
in
Figure 2B, a step-change
in siliconedepositionon hair from PQ-67 shampoos
occurred
when the chargesubstitutionin polymersexceeded2 wt.% cationicnitrogen. Experi-
mentalhigh chargedensityPQ-67 polymersdeposited
up to -3,500 microgramsilicone
per gramEuropeanvirgin brownhair, dependingon their CSandHS. They significantly
outperformedotherPQ-67 andcationicguarbenchmarks

wereformulated
withfractional
amountsof polymer (0.07-0.25 wt.%) or silicone(0.3 wt.%). These shampooswere
evaluatedfor siliconedepositionin comparisonto completeformulations(Shampoo
FormulationA) containing0.25 wt.% cationicguar and 1 wt.% silicone.Accordingto
Figure 3A, the amountof depositedsiliconewasproportionalto the amountof the high
chargedensityPQ-67 polymeraddedto the formulation.Lessthen one third of the
PQ-67 amount(0.07 wt.% versus0.25 wt.%) wasenoughto matchthe siliconedeposition from the cationicguar formula. In addition, data presentedon Figure 3B shows
that the formulationcontainingonethird of the amountof silicone(0.3 wt.% versus1.0
wt.% siliconein a "complete"ShampooFormulationA) and high chargedensityPQ-67
polymersyieldedsiliconedepositionon hair that was similar to the depositionfrom a
"complete"formulationcontainingcationicguar.

wt.% polymer.Haze measurements
wereperformedusingthe Nippon Denshoku300A
hazemeterin a 50 mm path lengthcell.As discussed
above,cationicpolymersareknown
to form coacervateswith anionic surfactants.Clear in a concentrated form, surfactant
solutionswith PQ-10 and PQ-67 cationicpolymersbecomehazyupon dilution. This
haziness,which is an indicator of coacervateformation, was measured over a dilution
rangeof 0-10 and haze (coacervate)
curveswere studies.As shownin Figure 9, the
coacervate
curvesof PQ-67 polymerswith wt.% N rangingfrom 1.25 to 2.5% changed
their shapeandpositiondependingon charge.In the rangeof 1.25 up to 1.8 wt.% N,
their shapeprogressively
evolvedfrom lowerand broadercurves(low CS) to higherand
"sharper"(narrower)curves(higherCS). In addition, thesecurvesprogressively
shifted
toward
the lower dilution
ratio.
This trend was earlier noticedand describedfor the PQ-10 polymers,such as, for
example
UCARE'rM
LR-30M(%N -1.0) andJR-30M(%N -1.8).• On thecontrary,
the hazecurvesfor the high chargedensityPQ-67 polymerswith % N above2.0 did not
follow the sametrend. They becamehigher and broaderat the sametime (Figure 9)
extendingovera broaderrangeof dilution comparedto their 1.8% N predecessor.
This
is a knownindicatorof morecoacervate
beingformedthat raisesexpectations
of superior
deposition/co-deposition
and conditioningperformance.Therefore,theseobservations
arein agreementwith earlierfindingsfrom the siliconeandfragrancedepositionstudies
