Description: AEROSOL HAIR SPRAY COMPOSITIONS COMPRISING COMBINATIONS OF SILICONE-GRAFTED COPOLYMERS TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to aerosol hair spray compositions which compnse a first and a second silicone-grafted copolymer, having defined molecular weights, and present in a specific ratio to each other, wherein the copolymers impart a dichotomous viscosity behavior to the hair spray In particular, the hair spray exhibits certain viscosity charactenstics when it is dispensed from the can and other viscosity characteπstics when it is present on the hair This dichotomous behavior results m supeπor hold and excellent hair feel benefits, upon application of the hair spray composition BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Hair styling compositions are well known m the art and are commercially available in a vaπety of forms, mcludmg, for example, mousses, gels, lotions, and hair sprays Many of these compositions contain hair styling resms to provide temporary hair styling or "setting" benefits Silicone-grafted copolymers are known in the art to be particularly effective hair styling resins because these copolymers can provide good style retention benefits to the hair while also providmg desirable hair feel In particular, silicone-grafted copolymers can impart a tactile sense of softness and conditioning relative to more conventional, non-silicone-containing resms Silicone-grafted copolymers are typically used as neutralized copolymers because, when these copolymers are used m at least partially neutralized form, the copolymers provide for a hair spray composition that is easily removable " by water and/or by shampooing and that has good styling performance U S Pat No 5,565,193 (Midha), issued on 15 October, 1996, teaches hair spray compositions which incorporate sihcone grafted copolymers While hair spray compositions which contam silicone-grafted copolymers provide a supeπor combination of good styling and desirable hair feel relative to hair sprays which incorporate other types of resins, consumers nevertheless desire hair spray products which provide even better styling and hair feel benefits Unfortunately, a better combmation of styling and hair feel than is achieved by the incorporation of silicone-grafted copolymers is difficult to achieve The viscosity of the hair spray is an important element with respect to both styling and hair feel In general, the lower the viscosity of the hair spray composition as it is present on the hair, the better (l e , less sticky) the hair feel This is because the low viscosity of the composition allows it to wick and spread efficiently on the hair However, low viscosity hair sprays typically result m small droplet size of the composition as it is dispensed from the can Small droplet size generally results m a hair spray with decreased hold, while larger droplet size is typically associated with mcreased hold In these low viscosity systems, attempts to mcrease the droplet size by utilizing alternative inserts and spray buttons have not delivered the desired droplet size and may lead to other non-desirable changes m other properties of the hair spray as well, negatively impacting hair feel and hold Therefore, from the standpoint of stylmg, hair spray compositions which have high viscosity at the point at which they are dispensed from the can are preferred One way to deliver a hair spray with mcreased stylmg and hair feel above and beyond what is achieved by the incorporation of silicone-grafted copolymers would be to impart dichotomous viscosity characteπstics to the hair spray In other words, develop a hair spray composition havmg a high viscosity when it is dispensed from the aerosol can (i e., under high shear conditions), but havmg a low viscosity upon being deposited to the hair (i.e., under low shear conditions) Past attempts to achieve the benefits of a dual viscosity system m a hair spray have failed Attempts to mcrease the high shear viscosity of a low viscosity hair spray composition in order to mcrease hold, such as by makmg the composition more concentrated or by mcreasmg the molecular weight of the silicone-grafted copolymer, have resulted m higher viscosity at low shear as well, thereby negatively impacting the hair feel imparted by the hair spray composition. Applicants have now found a way, however, to impart the aforementioned dual viscosity characteπstics to a hair spray composition and to provide hair spray compositions which provide a supeπor combmation of stylmg and hair feel above and beyond that which is achieved by the mere incorporation of a silicone-grafted copolymer mto a hair spray These characteπstics are achieved by blendmg a first silicone- grafted copolymer with a second silicone-grafted copolymer, wherem the monomers which form the respective silicone-grafted copolymers are present in the copolymers m a particular weight percentage and wherem the first and second silicone-grafted copolymers are present m the hair spray composition at a particular ratio with respect to one another Hair spray compositions which contam blends of silicone-grafted copolymers are generally descπbed in U.S. Pat. No 5,618,524 (Bolich), issued on 8 Apπl, 1997. However, the '524 patent does not specifically teach silicone-grafted polymers wherem the monomers are present at ratios as described herem and, accordmgly, the hair spray compositions taught therein do not necessarily deliver the same combination of good stylmg and good hair feel as the compositions of the present invention. It is an object of this invention to provide hair spray formulations that exhibit a dichotomous viscosity behavior at high shear and at low shear, which results in supeπor hold and excellent hair feel benefits It is also an object of this invention to provide a method for stylmg hair. These, and other objects will become readily apparent from the detailed descπption below.

Characteristics., preparation, and examples of first silicone-grafted copolymer The first silicone-grafted copolymers preferably have a weight average molecular weight from about 10,000 to about 500,000, more preferably from about 50,000 to about 300,000, even more preferably from about 90,000 to about 165,000 The concentration of the first silicone-grafted copolymer m the hair spray composition should be sufficient to provide the desired hair stylmg performance, and generally ranges for the first copolymer, from about 0 1% to about 10%, preferably from about 2% to about 9%>, more preferably from about 3%> to about 7%, by weight of the composition The first silicone-grafted copolymers can be made by any conventional or otherwise known polymerization techmques well known in the art. The first silicone-grafted copolymers descπbed above, and the second silicone-grafted copolymers descπbed below, can be synthesized by free radical polymerization of si cone- or polysiloxane-containing monomers with non-sihcone- or non-polysiloxane-containing monomers The general principles of free radical polymerization methods are well understood. See. Odian, "Pnncφles of Polymerization", 3d. ed., John Wiley & Sons, (1991), at 198 - 334 Non-limiting examples of some preferred first silicone-grafted copolymers for use m the aerosol hair spray compositions herem are listed below. Each listed polymer is followed by its monomer composition as part by weight of monomer used m the synthesis: (i) r-butyl acrylate/acrylic acid/polydimethylsiloxane macromer - 10,000 wt. avg. mw macromer (60/20/20); (ii) r-butyl acrylate/acrylic acid/polydimethylsiloxane macromer - 10,000 wt. avg. mw macromer (70/10/20); (iii) r-butyl methacrylate/acrylic acid polydimethylsiloxane macromer - 10,000 wt. avg. mw macromer (65/15/20); (iv) r-butyl acrylate/acrylic acid/polydimethylsiloxane macromer - 10,000 wt. avg. mw macromer (75/15/10); It may be desirable to purify the first silicone-grafted copolymer by removing unreacted silicone- containing monomer and silicone macromer-grafted polymer with viscosities at 25°C of about 10,000,000 centistokes and less. This can be done, for example, by hexane extraction. After drying the resin from its reaction solvent, hexane extraction of the reaction product can be performed by adding an excess of hexane to the reaction product and heating to near the T g of the non-silicone portion of the polymer. The mixture is held at this temperature with stirring for about 30 minutes and cooled to room temperature. The hexane is removed by vacuum suction. Two more hexane extraction cycles are preferably conducted in the same manner as above. After the third cycle, residual hexane remaining with the product is removed by distillation and vacuum drying. Low molecular weight polysiloxane-containing monomer and polymer is solubilized by supercritical carbon dioxide and transported away from the remaining polymer via a transfer line, which is maintained at identical temperature and pressure as the extraction vessel. The extracted materials are collected in an extraction vessel. Following extraction, the system is depressurized and dry, extracted copolymer is recovered from the extraction vessel. B. Second silicone-grafted styling copolymer The aerosol hair spray compositions of the present invention comprise from about 0.1% to about 5%, by weight of the composition, of a second silicone-grafted styling copolymer. When blended with the first silicone-grafted copolymer, at ratios specified herein, the second silicone-grafted copolymers provide a thin polymeric film on the hair from the hair spray composition which is removable with a shampoo. These copolymers, like the first silicone-grafted copolymers, are known in the art, and are also characterized by polysiloxane moieties covalently bonded to and pendant from a polymeric carbon-based backbone. Like the first silicone-grafted copolymers, the second silicone-grafted copolymers comprise "silicone-containing" (or "polysiloxane-containing") monomers, which form the silicone macromer pendant from the backbone, and non-silicone-containing monomers, which form the organic backbone of the polymer. The non-silicone-containing monomer units for the second silicone-grafted copolymer can be derived from (hydrophobic) B monomer units. Therefore, the second silicone-grafted copolymers for use herem can compnse combinations of the (hydrophobic) B and polysiloxane-containing monomer umts descnbed herem, provided that the resultmg stylmg polymer has the requisite characteπstics as descnbed herem However, unlike the first silicone-grafted copolymers, the second silicone-grafted copolymers are essentially free of (hydrophihc) A monomers The second silicone-grafted stylmg copolymers generally compnse from about 10% to about 40%, preferably from about 10% to about 30%>, more preferably from about 15% to about 25%>, by weight of the copolymer, of polysiloxane-contammg monomer umts. The second silicone-grafted copolymers preferred for use herem are such that when formulated mto the finished hair spray composition, and dned, the copolymers phase separate mto a discontinuous phase which mcludes the polysiloxane macromer and a continuous phase which mcludes the backbone. The polymenc backbone and silicone macromer components of these second silicone-grafted copolymers, as well as characteπstics of the copolymers are descπbed m further detail below i. Polymeric backbone The polymeric backbone of the second silicone-grafted copolymer is an orgamc backbone, preferably a carbon cham derived from polymerization of ethylemcally unsaturated monomers, such as vmyl polymeπc backbone, but can also mclude cellulosic chains or other carbohydrate-deπved polymenc chains to which polysiloxane moieties are pendant The backbone can also mclude ether groups, ester groups, urethane groups, and the like. The backbone of the second silicone-grafted copolymer is essentially free of (hydrophihc) A monomers. The vmyl polymeπc backbone of the second silicone-grafted copolymer preferably has a glass transition temperature (T g ) or crystalline meltmg pomt (T m ) of at least about -20°C, preferably from about 20°C to about 80°C, more preferably from about 20°C to about 60°C. Preferably, both the T g and the T m , if any, are within the ranges recited above. ii. Silicone-containing macromer The second silicone-grafted copolymer also compnses a polysiloxane macromer (especially preferred are polydialkylsiloxane, most preferably polyd methylsiloxane) grafted to the backbone. The polysiloxane moieties can be substituted on the polymer or can be made by co-polymenzation of polysiloxane-contammg polymeπzable monomers with non-polysiloxane-containing polymerizable monomers. Suitable polymeπzable polysiloxane-contammg monomers for the second silicone-grafted copolymers mclude, but are not limited to, those monomers that conform to the formula: X ( Y ) n Si ( R ) 3 _ m Z m ( I ) wherem X is an ethylemcally unsaturated group, such as a vmyl group, which is copolymenzable with the non-silicone-containmg monomers described herem, Y is a divalent linking group; R is a hydrogen, lower alkyl (e g C C 4 ), aryl, alkylammo, tn (C,-C 4 alkyl)sιloxy or C r C 4 alkoxy; Z is a monovalent siloxane polymeric moiety; n is 0 or 1; and m is an integer from 1 to 3.

System suitability As a system check, a polymer check sample should be analyzed to insure the system is operating properly. NBS706 is a National Bureau of Standards polystyrene sample of known molecular weight. When preparing to analyze samples, NBS 706 should be analyzed as a check sample. The Mw for NBS706 should be 257k +/- 30k. If the Mw for NBS706 falls outside of this range, this would indicate that the GPC system may not be operatmg properly, and should be checked by a trained analyst. E. Experimental procedure: 1. Preparation of sample/standard diluting solvent Transfer 100 μl toluene into a 1000 ml volumetric flask. Add tetrahydrofuran to volume and mix well. The resultmg solution contains 100 ppm toluene (as a retention time market) in tetrahydrofuran. 2. Preparation of polystyrene calibration standard solutions a) Using the following table, transfer the amount listed of each TOSO polystyrene Mw standard into a separate 8 dram vial (vial equipped with Teflon-lined screw cap). TOSO Standard Amount A-2500 0.0200 g A-5000 0.0200 g F-2 0.0200 g F-4 0.0200 g F-10 0.0100 g F-20 0.0100 g F-40 0.0100 g F-80 0.0100 g F-128 0.0050 g F-288 0.0050 g F-450 0.0050 g F-700 0.0050 g b) Add by pipet exactly 20.0 ml sample/standard diluting solvent to each vial. Cap each vial securely, but do not agitate. Allow to sit overnight, then mix gently by hand. These solutions can be kept indefinitely, provided that they are stored in a refrigerator (4-6°C) and securely sealed (screw cap and parafilm). c) Transfer a small portion of each standard solution into separate auto-sampler vials for GPC analysis. 3.

Pressure (Typical 0 PA Flow Split- 50:50 DV:RI Software: Viscotek Trisec 2.7 (Use TOSO F-40 to set peak parameter file) F. Molecular weight determination The procedure described below uses the Viscotek software to determine the molecular weight of the polymer sample. This determination can not be done without the software and requires an analyst trained in the use of the software. 1. Peak parameter file Polystyrene standard TOSO F-40 should be used to set the peak parameter file. The peak parameter file is used by the software to compensate for detector offset and peak broadening effects. 2. Time retention marker The toluene added to the THF used to prepare the samples is used as a time retention marker to correct for minor flowrate variation. The time retention marker is set to a flow rate of 1.000 using the retention time of the toluene in polystyrene standard TOSO F-40. The flow rate is adjusted as appropriate for all other standards and samples based on this. 3. Universal calibration curve The universal calibration curve is constructed using the nanow polystyrene standards described above. A new calibration file is opened. The file for a polystyrene standard is opened, flow rate is corrected, and smoothing is performed on the differential viscometric trace (one time smoothing with a factor of 9). Appropriate baselines and integration limits (as close to the beginning and end of the peak as possible) are drawn on the RI and DV traces. Under the calculate header, narrow standard is chosen and the results from this standard are added to the calibration curve. This should be done for each calibration standard until the calibration curve is complete. A calibration curve can be used for an extended period of time if there arc no obvious changes in the system (i.e., significant change in flow rates, new columns, analysis of polymers which change the chromatography, etc.). The fit order chosen for the calibration curve should be third order. 4. Determination of molecular weight and polydispersitv With the appropriate calibration and peak parameter file open, molecular weight of the sample can be determined. The file for the sample is opened, flow rate is corrected, and smoothing is performed on the differential viscometric trace (one time smoothing with factor of 9). Appropriate baselines and integration limits (as close to the beginning and end of the peak as possible) are drawn on the RI and DV traces. Under the calculate header, molecular weight is chosen. Results can be shown and printed from the Results header as a MWD summary report. Under the advanced options header, a third order plot fit should be chosen and averages should be computed from unfitted data.
