Description: HAIR CONDITIONING COMPOSITION COMPRISING CARBOXYLIC ACID/CARBOXYLATE COPOLYMER AND MOISTURIZING AGENT TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to hair conditioning compositions comprising a carboxylic acid/carboxylate copolymer and a moisturizing agent selected from the group consisting of a polypropylene glycol and an alkyl ethoxylate. BACKGROUND Human hair becomes soiled due to its contact with the surrounding environment and from sebum secreted by the scalp. The soiling of the hair causes it to have a dirty or greasy feel, and an unattractive appearance. The soiling of the hair necessitates shampooing with regularity. Shampooing cleans the hair by removing excess soil and sebum. However, shampooing can leave the hair in a wet, tangled, and generally unmanageable state. Once the hair dries, it is often left in a dry, rough, lusterless, or frizzy condition due to removal of the hair's natural oils and other natural conditioning and moisturizing components. The hair can further be left with increased levels of static upon drying which can interfere with combing and result in a condition commonly referred to as "fly-away hair", or contribute to an undesirable phenomena of "split ends", particularly for long hair. A variety of approaches have been developed to alleviate these after- shampoo problems. These approaches range from post-shampoo application of hair conditioner such as leave-on and rinse-off products, to hair conditioning shampoos which attempt to both cleanse and condition the hair from a single product. Although some consumers prefer the ease and convenience of a shampoo which includes conditioners, a substantial proportion of consumers prefer the more conventional conditioner formulations which are applied to the hair as a separate step from shampooing, usually subsequent to shampooing. Such consumers who prefer the conventional conditioner formulations value the relatively higher conditioning effect, or convenience of changing the amount of conditioning depending on the condition of hair or portion of hair. Conditioning formulations can be in the form of rinse-off products or leave- on products, and can be in the form of an emulsion, cream, gel, spray, and mousse. Products in the form of cream, gel, and mousse are suitable in that the consumer can easily control the amount and distribution of the product. As such, these products are particularly suitable for leave-on products. Leave-on products which do not leave the hands with a tacky, dirty, feeling is desired. Co-pending PCT applications US98/15852, US98/15853, US98/15854, and US98/15855, describe hair care compositions suitable for leave-on products which contain a carboxylic acid/carboxylate copolymer. While such compositions are suitable for leave-on use, provide hair feel such as smoothness, softness, and reduction of friction, are easy to apply on the hair, and leave the hair and hands with a clean feeling, they are not satisfactory in providing moisturized hair feel and reduction of bulk hair volume. Fly-away hair is due to the increased level of static, and represents volume increase of only very minor amount of the hair as a whole, and is not desirable. On the other hand, reduction of hair volume as used herein relates to reduction of the bulk of the hair volume. Based on the foregoing, there remains a desire to provide hair conditioning compositions suitable for leave-on use which provide improved conditioning benefits to the hair such as moisturized feel, reduction of bulk hair volume, are easy to apply on the hair, and leave the hair and hands with a clean feeling. None of the existing art provides all of the advantages and benefits of the present invention. SUMMARY The present invention is directed to a hair conditioning composition comprising: (1 ) from about 0.01% to about 10% of a carboxylic acid/carboxylate copolymer; (2) from about 0.1% to about 10% of a moisturizing agent selected from the group consisting of a polypropyleneglycol, an alkyl ethoxylate, and mixtures thereof; and (3) an aqueous carrier. The present invention is further directed to a method of making the hair conditioning composition described above. These and other features, aspects, and advantages of the present invention will become evident to those skilled in the art from a reading of the present disclosure. DETAILED DESCRIPTION While the specification concludes with claims which particularly point out and distinctly claim the invention, it is believed the present invention will be better understood from the following description. All cited references are incorporated herein by reference in their entireties. Citation of any reference is not an admission regarding any determination as to its availability as prior art to the claimed invention. Herein, "comprising" means that other steps and other ingredients which do not affect the end result can be added. This term encompasses the terms "consisting of and "consisting essentially of. All percentages, parts and ratios are based upon the total weight of the compositions of the present invention, unless otherwise specified. All such weights as they pertain to listed ingredients are based on the active level and, therefore, do not include carriers or by-products that may be included in commercially available materials. The aspects and embodiments of the present invention set forth in this document have many advantages. For example, the hair conditioning compositions of the present invention provide: a product suitable for leave-on use which provide improved conditioning benefits to the hair such as moisturized feel, reduction of bulk hair volume, are easy to apply on the hair, and leave the hair and hands with a clean feeling. CARBOXYLIC ACID/CARBOXYLATE COPOLYMER The compositions of the present invention comprise an carboxylic acid/carboxylate copolymer. The carboxylic acid/carboxylate copolymers herein are hydrophobically-modified cross-linked copiymers of carboxylic acid and alkyl carboxylate, and have an amphiphilic property. These carboxylic acid/carboxylate copolymers are obtained by copolymerizing 1) a carboxylic acid monomer such as acrylic acid, methacrylic acid, maleic acid, maleic anhydride, itaconic acid, fumaric acid, crotonic acid, or α-chloroacrylic acid, 2) a carboxylic ester having an alkyl chain of from 1 to about 30 carbons, and preferably 3) a crosslinking agent of the following formula: wherein R^2 js a hydrogen or an alkyl group having from about 1 to about 30 carbons; Y 1 , indepedently, is oxygen, CH2O, COO, OCO, J S a hydrogen or an alkyl group having from about 1 to about 30 carbons; and γ2 is selected from (CH2)m", (CH2CH2θ) m " ( or (CH2CH2CH2θ) m " wherein m" is an integer of from 1 to about 30. The carboxylic acid/carboxylate copolymers herein are believed to provide appropriate viscosity and rheology properties to the composition, and to emulsify and stabilize certain conditioning agents in the composition. It is further believed that, because of the alkyl group contained in the copolymer, the carboxylic acid/carboxylate copolymers do not make the composition undesirably sticky. The composition of the present invention preferably comprises the carboxylic acid/carboxylate copolymer at a level by weight of from about 0.01% to about 10%, more preferably from about 0.1% to about 2%. Suitable carboxylic acid/carboxylate copolymers herein are acrylic acid/alkyl acrylate copolymers having the following formula: wherein R51 , independently, is a hydrogen or an alkyl of 1 to 30 carbons wherein at least one of R§ 1 is a hydrogen, R^ 2 js as defined above, n, n', m and m' are integers in which n+n'+m+m' is from about 40 to about 100, n" is an integer of from 1 to about 30, and £ is defined so that the copolymer has a molecular weight of about 500,000 to about 3,000,000. Commercially available carboxylic acid/carboxylate copolymers useful herein include: CTFA name Acrylates/C 10-30 Alkyl Acrylate Crosspolymer having tradenames Pemulene TR-1 , Pemulene TR-2, Carbopol 1342, Carbopol 1382, and Carbopol ETD 2020, all available from B. F. Goodrich Company. Neutralizing agents may be included to neutralize the carboxylic acid/carboxylate copolymers herein. Nonlimiting examples of such neutralizing agents include sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, ammonium hydroxide, monethanolamine, diethanolamine, triethanolamine, diisopropanolamine, aminomethylpropanol, tromethamine, tetrahydroxypropyl ethylenediamine, and mixtures thereof. Upon making the present composition, the carboxylic acid/carboxylate copolymers are preferably neutralized with the neutralizing agents prior to mixing with components which may provide an undesirable complex with the unneutralized form of the carboxylic acid/carboxylate copolymers. Components which may provide such undesirable complex are, for example, amphoteric polymers, which are discussed later in the present specification. MOISTURIZING AGENT The hair care composition of the present invention comprises a moisturizing agent selected from the group consisting of an alkyl ethoxylate, a polypropylene glycol, and mixtures thereof. It is believed that the moisturizing agents herein provide improved conditioning benefits to the hair such as moisturized feel and reduction of bulk hair volume. The moisturizing agent is present at a level of from about 0.1% to about 10%, and preferably from about 0.5% to about 3%, more preferably from about 1% to about 2% by weight of the hair care composition. Alkyl Ethoxylate The alkyl ethoxylate useful herein has the formula: R-0-(C 2 H 4 0) n H, wherein R is an alkyl group having from about 1 to about 30 carbon atoms, preferably from about 6 to about 22 carbon atoms, and more preferably from about 8 to about 18 carbon atoms; R may be branched, linear, saturated, unsaturated, but is preferably linear and saturated, or unsaturated having about one double bond; n is from about 1 to about 10, preferably from about 2 to about 8, and more preferably from about 3 to about 6; the weight average molecular weight of the alkyl ethoxylate is less than about 500 g/mol, preferably from about 100 to about 500 g/mol, and more preferably from about 200 to about 500 g/mol; and the HLB value of the alkyl ethoxylate is from about 5 to about 12, preferably from about 6 to about 11 , and more preferably from about 6 to about 10. As may be seen from the HLB values, such alkyl ethoxylates are miscible in both oil and water. Furthermore, such alkyl ethoxylates typically have a melting point of less than about 30 °C, preferably less than about 25 °C, and more preferably less than about 20 °C, and have a cloud point (1 % solution) of less than about 50 °C, preferably less than about 40 °C, and more preferably less than about 35 °C. The HLB value is a theoretical index value which describes the hydrophilicity-hydrophobicity balance of a specific compound. Generally, it is recognized that the HLB index ranges from 0 (very hydrophobic) to 40 (very hydrophilic). The HLB value of the alkyl ethoxylate may be found in tables and charts known in the art, or may be calculated with the following general equation: HLB = 7 + ∑(hydrophobic group values) + ∑(hydrophilic group values). The HLB and methods for calculating the HLB of a compound are explained in detail in "Surfactant Science Series, Vol. 1 : Nonionic Surfactants", pp. 606-13, M. J. Schick (Marcel Dekker, Inc., New York, 1966). Without intending to be limited by theory, it is believed that the alkyl ethoxylates useful herein provide a bulk hair volume reduction benefit by the following mechanism: The hydrophobic alkyl chains attach to hair fibers, even under rinse-off conditions, while the hydrophilic ethoxylate groups attract water molecules and bring them to the hair fibers. This moisturizes the hair fiber, and helps maintain it in a flexible, soft, and plastic state. This in turn, allows the hair fiber to maintain a well-aligned conformation (with respect to other hair fibers) and to easily recover from deformation. This further increases the likelihood that the hair fibers will remain parallel, and/or hang straight down. This significantly reduces the space between the individual hair fibers, and therefore reduces bulk hair volume. Without intending to be limited by theory, it is also believed that the alkyl ethoxylate may reduce flyaway hair volume as well. By moisturizing the hair fiber, the alkyl ethoxylate may also reduce the hair fiber's static charge and crookedness. This in turn, reduces the electrostatic repulsion and space between hair fibers, which leads to a reduction in flyaway volume. Highly preferred examples of the alkyl ethoxylate useful herein include, for example, oleth-5, oleth-3, steareth-5, steareth-4, ceteareth-5, ceteareth-4, ceteareth-3, mixtures of mixtures of mixtures of C 12 . 13 E03, mixtures of C^.^EOδ, and mixtures thereof. These alkyl ethoxylates are available from, for example, Croda Chemical Ltd., of Parsippany, New Jersey, U.S.A., Shell Chemical of U.S.A., BASF of Germany, Mitsubishi Chemical of Tokyo, Japan, and Nikko Chemical, of Tokyo, Japan. Such alkyl ethoxylates are especially preferred for use in rinse-off hair conditioning compositions. If the hair care composition is intended for use as a rinse-off hair conditioning composition, it is highly preferred that the alkyl ethoxylate have a cloud point of less than about 40 °C. Without intending to be limited by theory, it is believed that this significantly improves the deposition efficiency of the alkyl ethoxylate onto hair. Polypropylene Glycol The polypropylene glycol useful herein has a weight average molecular weight of from about 200 g/mol to about 100,000 g/mol, preferably from about 1 ,000 g/mol to about 60,000 g/mol. Without intending to be limited by theory, it is believed that the polypropylene glycol herein deposits onto, or is absorbed into hair to act as a humectant/moisturizer, and/or provides one or more other desirable hair conditioning benefits. As used herein, the term "polypropylene glycol" includes single-polypropylene glycol-chain segment polymers, and multi- polypropylene glycol-chain segment polymers. The general structure of branched polymers such as the multi-polypropylene glycol-chain segment polymers herein are described, for example, in "Principles of Polymerization," pp. 17-19, G. Odian, (John Wiley & Sons, Inc., 3 rd ed., 1991). The polypropylene glycol herein are typically polydisperse polymers. The polypropylene glycols useful herein have a polydispersity of from about 1 to about 2.5, preferably from about 1 to about 2, and more preferably from about 1 to about 1.5. As used herein, the term "polydispersity" indicates the degree of the molecular weight distribution of the polymer sample. Specifically, the polydispersity is a ratio, greater than 1 , equal to the weight average molecular weight divided by the number average molecular weight. For a further discussion about polydispersity, see "Principles of Polymerization," pp. 20-24, G. Odian, (John Wiley & Sons, Inc., 3 rd ed., 1991). The polypropylene glycol useful herein may be either water-soluble, water- insoluble, or may have a limited solubility in water, depending upon the degree of polymerization and whether other moieties are attached thereto. The desired solubility of the polypropylene glycol in water will depend in large part upon the form (e.g., leave-on, or rinse-off form) of the hair care composition. The solubility in water of the polypropylene glycol herein may be chosen by the artisan according to a variety of factors. Both water-soluble and water-insoluble polypropylene glycols are useful for leave-on form compositions. The present invention may also take the form of a rinse-off hair care composition. Without intending to be limited by theory, it is believed that in such a composition, a water-soluble polypropylene glycol may be too easily washed away before it effectively deposits on hair and provides the desired benefit(s). For such a composition, a less soluble, or even a water-insoluble polypropylene glycol is therefore preferred. Accordingly, for a rinse-off hair care composition, it is preferred that the polypropylene glycol herein has a solubility in water at 25 °C of less than about 1 g/100 g water, more preferably a solubility in water of less than about 0.5 g/100 g water, and even more preferably a solubility in water of less than about 0.1 g/100 g water. Preferably the polypropylene glycol is selected from the group consisting of a single-polypropylene glycol-chain segment polymer, a multi-polypropylene glycol-chain segment polymer, and mixtures thereof, more preferably selected from the group consisting of a single-polypropylene glycol-chain segment polymer of Formula I, below, a multi-polypropylene glycol-chain segment polymer of Formula II, below, and mixtures thereof. Without intending to be limited by theory, it is believed that these polypropylene glycols provide a good balance between performance, availability, biodegradability, and cost. a. Sinαle-Polvpropylene Glycol-Chain Segment Polymer Accordingly, a highly preferred single-polypropylene glycol-chain segment polymer has the formula: HO-(C 3 H 6 0) a H (Formula I), wherein a is a value from about 4 to about 400, preferably from about 20 to about 100, and more preferably from about 20 to about 40. The single-polypropylene glycol-chain segment polymer useful herein is typically inexpensive, and is readily available from, for example, Sanyo Kaisei (Osaka, Japan), Dow Chemicals (Midland, Michigan, USA), Calgene Chemical, Inc. (Skokie, Illinois, USA), Arco Chemical Co. (Newton Square Pennsylvania, USA), Witco Chemicals Corp. (Greenwich, Connecticut, USA), and PPG Specialty Chemicals (Gurnee, Illinois, USA). Without intending to be limited by theory, it is believed that once it has deposited onto a strand of hair, the shape and relatively small size of the single- polypropylene glycol-chain segment polymer herein allows it to easily penetrate the hair. While useful for both a leave-on and a rinse-off form, a single- polypropylene glycol-chain segment polymer is especially preferred if the hair care composition is to take a leave-on form. Furthermore, the multiple propylene oxide groups attract and maintain a significant amount of water to the hair so as to impart significant moisturization properties. This increased moisturization results in reduced flyaway hair volume, reduced bulk hair volume, and/or increases the manageability of the hair. b. Multi-Polvpropylene Glvcol-Chain Segment Polymer A highly preferred multi-polypropylene glycol-chain segment polymer has the formula: (Formula II), wherein n is a value from about 0 to about 10, preferably from about 0 to about 7, and more preferably from about 1 to about 4. In Formula II, each R is independently selected from the group consisting of H, and C 1 -C 30 alkyl, and preferably each R is independently selected from the group consisting of H, and 0^ 4 alkyl. In Formula II, each b is independently a value from about 0 to about 2, preferably from about 0 to about 1 , and more preferably b = 0. Similarly, c and d are independently a value from about 0 to about 2, preferably from about 0 to about 1. However, the total of b + c + d is at least about 2, preferably the total of b + c + d is from about 2 to about 3. Each e is independently a value of 0 or 1 , if n is from about 1 to about 4, then e is preferably equal to 1. Also in Formula II, x, y, and z is independently a value of from about 1 to about 120, preferably from about 7 to about 100, and more preferably from about 7 to about 100, where x + y + z is greater than about 20. Examples of the multi-polypropylene glycol-chain segment polymer of Formula II which is especially useful herein includes polyoxypropylene glyceryl ether (n = 1 , R = H, b = 0, c and d = 1 , e = 1 , and x, y, and z independently indicate the degree of polymerization of their respective polypropylene glycol- chain segments; available as New Pol GP-4000, from Sanyo Kasei, Osaka, Japan), polypropylene trimethylol propane (n = 1 , R = C 2 H 5 , b = 1 , c and d = 1 , e = 1 , and x, y, and z independently indicate the degree of polymerization of their respective polypropylene glycol-chain segments), polyoxypropylene sorbitol (n = 4, each R = H, b = 0, c and d = 1 , each e = 1 , and y, z, and each x independently indicate the degree of polymerization of their respective polypropylene glycol- chain segments; available as New Pol SP-4000, from Sanyo Kasei, Osaka, Japan), and PPG-10 butanediol (n = 0, c and d = 2, and y + z = 10; available as Probutyl DB-10, from Croda, Inc., of Parsippany, New Jersey, U.S.A.). In a preferred embodiment, one or more of the propylene repeating groups in the polypropylene glycol is an isopropyl oxide repeating group. More preferably one or more of the propylene oxide repeating groups of the polypropylene glycol of Formula I and/or the polypropylene glycol of Formula II is an isopropyl oxide repeating group. Even more preferably, substantially all of the propylene oxide repeating groups of the polypropylene glycol of Formula I and/or the polypropylene glycol of Formula II are isopropyl oxide repeating groups. Accordingly, a highly preferred single-polypropylene glycol-chain segment polymer has the formula: (Formula III), wherein a is defined as described above for Formula I. Similarly, a highly preferred multi-polypropylene glycol-chain segment polymer has the formula: (Formula IV), wherein n, R, b, c, d, e, x, y, and z are defined as above, for Formula II. It is recognized that the isopropyl oxide repeating groups may also correspond to: either alone, or in combination with the isomer depicted in Formula IV.

Buffers and other pH adjusting agents can be included to achieve the desirable pH. SILICONE COMPOUND The compositions of the present invention may further comprise a silicone compound. The silicone compounds useful herein include volatile soluble or insoluble, or nonvolatile soluble or insoluble silicone conditioning agents. By soluble what is meant is that the silicone compound is miscible with the carrier of the composition so as to form part of the same phase. By insoluble what is meant is that the silicone forms a separate, discontinuous phase from the carrier, such as in the form of an emulsion or a suspension of droplets of the silicone. The silicone compounds herein may be made by any suitable method known in the art, including emulsion polymerization. The silicone compounds may further be incorporated in the present composition in the form of an emulsion, wherein the emulsion is made my mechanical mixing, or in the stage of synthesis through emulsion polymerization, with or without the aid of a surfactant selected from anionic surfactants, nonionic surfactants, cationic surfactants, and mixtures thereof.

Silicone compound of high molecular weight may be made by emulsion polymerization. Suitable silicone fluids include polyalkyl siloxanes, polyaryl siloxanes, polyalkylaryl siloxanes, polyether siloxane copolymers, and mixtures thereof. Other nonvolatile silicone compounds having hair conditioning properties can also be used.

The silicone compounds herein also include polyalkyl or polyaryl siloxanes with the following structure (I) wherein R 93 is alkyl or aryl, and x is an integer from about 7 to about 8,000. Z 8 represents groups which block the ends of the silicone chains. The alkyl or aryl groups substituted on the siloxane chain (R 93 ) or at the ends of the siloxane chains Z 8 can have any structure as long as the resulting silicone remains fluid at room temperature, is dispersible, is neither irritating, toxic nor otherwise harmful when applied to the hair, is compatible with the other components of the composition, is chemically stable under normal use and storage conditions, and is capable of being deposited on and conditions the hair. Suitable Z 8 groups include hydroxy, methyl, methoxy, ethoxy, propoxy, and aryloxy. The two R 93 groups on the silicon atom may represent the same group or different groups. Preferably, the two R 93 groups represent the same group. Suitable R 93 groups include methyl, ethyl, propyl, phenyl, methylphenyl and phenylmethyl. The preferred silicone compounds are polydimethylsiloxane, polydiethylsiloxane, and polymethylphenylsiloxane. Polydimethylsiloxane, which is also known as dimethicone, is especially preferred.

These siloxanes are available, for example, from the General Electric Company as SF 1075 methyl phenyl fluid or from Dow Corning as 556 Cosmetic Grade Fluid. Especially preferred, for enhancing the shine characteristics of hair, are highly arylated silicone compounds, such as highly phenylated polyethyl silicone having refractive index of about 1.46 or higher, especially about 1.52 or higher. When these high refractive index silicone compounds are used, they should be mixed with a spreading agent, such as a surfactant or a silicone resin, as described below to decrease the surface tension and enhance the film forming ability of the material. The silicone compounds that can be used include, for example, a polypropylene oxide modified polydimethylsiloxane although ethylene oxide or mixtures of ethylene oxide and propylene oxide can also be used. The ethylene oxide and polypropylene oxide level should be sufficiently low so as not to interfere with the dispersibility characteristics of the silicone. These material are also known as dimethicone copolyols. Other silicone compounds include amino substituted materials. Suitable alkylamino substituted silicone compounds include those represented by the following structure wherein R 94 is H, CH 3 or OH, p\ p 2 , q 1 and q 2 are integers which depend on the molecular weight, the average molecular weight being approximately between 5,000 and 10,000.

It is recognized that the silicone gums described herein can also have some overlap with the above-disclosed silicone compounds. This overlap is not intended as a limitation on any of these materials. Silicone gums are described by Petrarch, and others including U.S. Patent No. 4,152,416, to Spitzer et al., issued May 1 , 1979 and Noll, Walter, Chemistry and Technology of Silicones, New York: Academic Press 1968. Also describing silicone gums are General Electric Silicone Rubber Product Data Sheets SE 30, SE 33, SE 54 and SE 76. The "silicone gums" will typically have a mass molecular weight in excess of about 200,000, generally between about 200,000 and about 1 ,000,000. Specific examples include polydimethylsiloxane, polydimethylsiloxane methylvinylsiloxane) copolymer, polydimethylsiloxane diphenylsiloxane methylvinylsiloxane) copolymer and mixtures thereof. Also useful are silicone resins, which are highly crosslinked polymeric siloxane systems. The crosslinking is introduced through the incorporation of tri- functional and tetra-fu notional silanes with mono-functional or di-functional, or both, silanes during manufacture of the silicone resin. As is well understood in the art, the degree of crosslinking that is required in order to result in a silicone resin will vary according to the specific silane units incorporated into the silicone resin. In general, silicone materials which have a sufficient level of trifunctional and tetrafu notional siloxane monomer units, and hence, a sufficient level of crosslinking, such that they dry down to a rigid, or hard, film are considered to be silicone resins. The ratio of oxygen atoms to silicon atoms is indicative of the level of crosslinking in a particular silicone material. Silicone materials which have at least about 1.1 oxygen atoms per silicon atom will generally be silicone resins herein. Preferably, the ratio of oxygen:silicon atoms is at least about 1.2:1.0. Silanes used in the manufacture of silicone resins include monomethyl-, dimethyl-, trimethyl-, monophenyl-, diphenyl-, methylphenyl-, monovinyl-, and methylvinylchlorosilanes, and tetrachlorosilane, with the methyl substituted silanes being most commonly utilized. Preferred resins are offered by General Electric as GE SS4230 and SS4267. Commercially available silicone resins will generally be supplied in a dissolved form in a low viscosity volatile or nonvolatile silicone fluid. The silicone resins for use herein should be supplied and incorporated into the present compositions in such dissolved form, as will be readily apparent to those skilled in the art. Without being bound by theory, it is believed that the silicone resins can enhance deposition of other silicone compounds on the hair and can enhance the glossiness of hair with high refractive index volumes. Other useful silicone resins are silicone resin powders such as the material given the CTFA designation polymethylsilsequioxane, which is commercially available as Tospearl™ from Toshiba Silicones. The method of manufacturing these silicone compounds, can be found in Encyclopedia of Polymer Science and Engineering, Volume 15, Second Edition, pp. 204-308, John Wiley & Sons, Inc., 1989. Silicone materials and silicone resins in particular, can conveniently be identified according to a shorthand nomenclature system well known to those skilled in the art as the "MDTQ" nomenclature. Under this system, the silicone is described according to the presence of various siloxane monomer units which make up the silicone. Briefly, the symbol M denotes the mono-functional unit (CH 3 ) 3 SiOo .5 ; D denotes the difunctional unit (CH 3 ) 2 SiO; T denotes the trifunctional unit (CH 3 )Si0 1 5 ; and Q denotes the quadri- or tetra-functional unit Si02. Primes of the unit symbols, e.g., M', D', T', and Q' denote substituents other than methyl, and must be specifically defined for each occurrence. Typical alternate substituents include groups such as vinyl, phenyl, amino, hydroxyl, etc. The molar ratios of the various units, either in terms of subscripts to the symbols indicating the total number of each type of unit in the silicone, or an average thereof, or as specifically indicated ratios in combination with molecular weight, complete the description of the silicone material under the MDTQ system. Higher relative molar amounts of T, Q, T' and/or Q' to D, D\ M and/or or M' in a silicone resin is indicative of higher levels of crosslinking. As discussed before, however, the overall level of crosslinking can also be indicated by the oxygen to silicon ratio. The silicone resins for use herein which are preferred are MQ, MT, MTQ, MQ and MDTQ resins. Thus, the preferred silicone substituent is methyl. Especially preferred are MQ resins wherein the M:Q ratio is from about 0.5:1.0 to about 1.5:1.0 and the average molecular weight of the resin is from about 1000 to about 10,000. In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the silicone compound is selected from the group consisting of Dimethicone fluid, Dimethicone gum, Dimethiconol fluid, and mixtures thereof. Particularly suitable silicone compounds herein are non-volatile silicone fluids having a molecular weight of from about 200,000 to about 600,000 such as Dimethicone, and Dimethiconol.
