Title: Cationic conditioning agent

Description:
The present invention relates to compositions comprising at least one polymer a) having cationic and/or cationogenic groups and a molecular weight M w  in the range from 10 000 to 5 million and at least one polymer b) which has been prepared in the presence of polymer a). 
     Furthermore, the present invention relates to skin and hair cosmetic compositions, in particular shampoos and other haircare compositions, comprising the polymers a) and b), where b) has been prepared in the presence of a). Accordingly, the invention relates to compositions for the cleansing and/or care of the hair. In particular, apart from shampoos, the invention also relates to further haircare compositions which are selected from the group consisting of pretreatment compositions, hair rinses, hair conditioners, hair balms, leave-on hair treatments, rinse-off hair treatments, hair tonics, pomades, styling creams, styling lotions, styling gels, end fluids, hot-oil treatments and foam treatments. 
     PRIOR ART 
     Haircare compositions serve primarily to improve the dry and wet combability, the feel to the touch, the shine and the appearance of the hair, and also to impart antistatic properties to the hair. 
     A shampoo should lather and cleanse the hair well, be mild and compatible and also practicable and pleasant to handle, it must also contribute to the care of the hair or to the elimination of hair and scalp problems. These additional effects and the cleansing effect, which has become self-evident, are characteristic of a modern shampoo. Cleansing power and foamability, skin compatibility, ability to be thickened and hydrolysis stability of the individual ingredients of shampoos are heavily dependent on the pH. The ingredients used in shampoos should optimally develop these properties in the neutral and weakly acidic pH range (pH 5-7), but outside of this pH range, should also exhibit no significant losses in performance. The selected ingredients of the shampoos must be chemically stable and compatible with all of the other formulation constituents so that, for example, no reductions in effect or separations take place. Shampoos are expected to have an adequate cleansing power coupled with not too strong a degreasing effect and simultaneously adequate mildness. It is important that the cleansing power and the other desired surfactant properties are present both in soft water and in hard water. Shampoos have to be well tolerated by skin and mucosa and must therefore have no aggressive effect under the customary use conditions. A good cleansing performance does not have to be linked to considerable foam formation. Nevertheless, foam quantity and quality of the shampoos during washing represent important criteria for the consumer which have to be satisfied by the shampoos. Besides the cleansing effect, shampoos also have a conditioning effect which is ensured through the content of conditioners in the shampoo. Conditioners are auxiliaries which attach to the hair and remain on the hair even after the rinsing process. They lead to an improvement in combability, feel and shine of the hair. In the case of certain hair types (fine hair) or overdosing, however, the conditioners can also lead to undesired weighing down of the hair. From a formulation point of view, this means that when using conditioners, it is always necessary to ensure a good balance between conditioning performance and weighing-down of the hair. Furthermore, when using conditioners, it should also be ensured that the regular application of the product does not lead to a continuously growing amount of conditioners on the hair (build-up effect). The provision of products with a complex profile of properties often presents difficulties. Such complex property profiles often require the use of numerous ingredients in one preparation, which in turn implies the risk of incompatibility toward one or more of these ingredients on the part of the consumer. 
     Conditioners in shampoos are primarily silicones and cationic polymers. 
     Silicones have the disadvantage that they are mostly water-insoluble and the shampoo formulation has to be stabilized through dispersants. These additives are often undesired. In addition, silicones sometimes exhibit considerable build-up effects and, following repeated use, the hair feels unpleasantly weighed down. 
     Many cationic polymers which are used as conditioners in shampoos, such as, for example, cationic cellulose derivatives, form surfactant-polymer complexes with anionic surfactants in the shampoo formulation; these are water-insoluble if the charge density of the polymers is high. For this reason, use is usually made of cationic polymers with low charge density so that they are soluble in the formulation. 
     However, cationic polymers with a high charge density have a greater affinity to the hair, for which reason it is desirable to use highly charged polymers in shampoos. However, the surfactant-polymer complexes in the formulation are then insoluble. The formulation has to be stabilized through the addition of dispersion auxiliaries. 
     WO 94/06403 describes the use of, inter alia, copolymers of N-vinylpyrrolidione and 3-methyl-1-vinylimidazolium salts with high charge density in combination with further water-insoluble conditioners in shampoo formulations. Accordingly, dispersants are used for stabilizing the formulations. 
     WO 94/06409 and U.S. Pat. No. 5,580,494 describe shampoo compositions based on an alpha-olefinsulfonate as detergent and a cationic polymer with a high charge density, e.g. copolymers of N-vinylpyrroiidone and 3-methyl-1-vinylimidazolium salts as conditioners. Dispersion auxiliaries also have to be added here to stabilize the formulations. 
     EPA 246 580 describes that quaternized vinylimidazole copolymers with various other monomers are used as hair conditioners. The polymers described therein have the disadvantage that, in the case of a low fraction of the quaternized vinylimidazole monomers in the presence of anionic surfactants, they a low effect, and in the case of a high fraction of the quaternized vinylimidazole, no stable dispersions form. 
     EP-A 911 018 describes the use of cationic copolymers obtainable by free-radically initiated copolymerization of 
     (a) 60 to 99 mol %, preferably 65 to 95 mol % and, particularly preferably, 70 to 90 mol % of an optionally substituted 1-vinylimidazole or a quaternized 1-vinylimidazole, 
     (b) 1 to 40 mol %, preferably 5 to 35 mol %, particularly preferably 10 to 30 mol %, of an acid comprising a polymerizable double bond, or salts thereof and 
     (c) 0 to 30 mol %, preferably 0 to 20 mol %, particularly preferably 0 to 10 mol % of a further free-radically copolymerizable monomer 
     and subsequent quaternization of the polymer if a nonquaternized 1-vinylimidazole is used as monomer (a), as active ingredients in hair cosmetic preparations, in particular as conditioners in shampoos. 
     WO 02/083073 describes water-soluble polymer complexes where, in the polymerization, a water-soluble host polymer is initially introduced, and one or more water-soluble monomers are polymerized so that a stable single-phase aqueous system is formed. Compositions according to claim  1  are not described. 
     The compositions which are known from the prior art have neither satisfactory haircare properties, such as, for example, good wet combability, nor satisfactory formulation-related properties, such as, for example, good stability. 
     In the case of numerous cationic polymers from the prior art, incompatibilities arise with typical charge-balancing stoichiometric quantitative ratios of polymer to surfactant. 
     These are evident, for example, from diminishing transparency, i.e. from clouding of the composition which arises. 
     It was an object of the present invention to provide aqueous compositions in the form of a shampoo or skin cleansing composition which have a very good conditioning effect for hair, skin and nails and at the same time have long-term stability in the presence of anionic surfactants. 
     There is therefore still a need for shampoos and haircare compositions which at the same time impart to the hair good sensorily detectable properties, such as elasticity, a pleasant feel and volume, without a good conditioning and cleansing effect being accompanied by an unsatisfactory greasy and/or sticky appearance of the hair treated therewith and which are in the form of formulations with long-term stability and, furthermore, good foaming ability and foam quality. 
     The aim was to develop shampoos and haircare compositions with the abovementioned properties on the basis of the fewest possible feed materials since, in the case of compositions from the prior art, the large number of necessary components sometimes leads to skin irritations, allergic reactions and other incompatibilities. Particularly in the field of children and baby shampoos and haircare compositions, there is also a requirement for compositions with the smallest possible number of different ingredients. 
     It was an object of the present invention to provide compositions which produce, without additional dispersion auxiliaries, shampoo formulations containing anionic surfactants and having long-term stability which at the same time exhibit excellent wet combabilities even without the use of silicones. 
     These objects were achieved by compositions comprising
     a) at least one polymer a) with cationic and/or cationogenic groups and a molecular weight M w  in the range from 10 000 to 5 million and   b) at least one polymer b) selected from
       b1) polymers prepared in the presence of polymer a) which comprise a compound of the general formula I in copolymerized form

             b2) cationic polymers prepared in the presence of polymer a) and at least one salt and comprising, in copolymerized form, at least one cationic monomer and at least one compound of the general formula I.

     Polymer b2) 
     Polymers b2) are cationic polymers prepared in the presence of polymer a) and at least one salt which comprise at least one cationic monomer and at least one compound of the abovementioned general formula I in copolymerized form. Suitable cationic monomers are described in detail above under polymer a). 
     The carrying-out of the water-in-water emulsion polymerization is known to the person skilled in the art for example from the published patent applications DE 10334262, DE 10338828, WO 2005/012378, WO 2006/018113, WO 98/54234 and DE 102005023799. 
     In particular, reference may be made to the details in WO 98/54234. This describes the preparation of aqueous polyvinylformamide dispersions by polymerization of vinyl-formamide in the presence of a water-soluble polymeric stabilizer, such as, for example, polyDADMAC and a water-soluble salt. For the description of the preparation of polymer b2) in the presence of polymer a), reference may be made to the disclosure of WO 98/54234 and EP 984990, to which reference is made in their entirety. 
     Example 8 of the present invention describes, by way of representation, a typical procedure for the preparation of a polymer b2) by a water-in-water emulsion polymerization in the presence of polymer a) and a salt. 
     Suitable salts are described in detail in the specifications WO 98/14405 and WO 00/20470, to which reference is hereby made in their entirety. 
     Suitable salts are accordingly inorganic salts, such as fluorides, chlorides, sulfates, phosphates or hydrogenphosphates of metal ions or ammonium ions. Typical representatives are sodium sulfate, potassium sulfate, ammonium sulfate, magnesium sulfate, aluminum sulfate, sodium chloride, calcium chloride, sodium dihydrogen-phosphate, diammonium hydrogenphosphate, dipotassium hydrogenphosphate, calcium phosphate, sodium citrate and iron sulfate. 
     Chaotropic salts, such as, for example, thiocyanates, perchlorates, chlorates, nitrates, bromides and iodides, can likewise be used. Typical representatives are calcium nitrate, sodium nitrate, ammonium nitrate, aluminum nitrate, sodium thiocyanate and sodium iodide. 
     Salts of organic C 1 - to C 15 -carboxylic acids, in particular the alkali metal salts, for example sodium or potassium salts or ammonium salts of mono-, di- or polybasic organic C 1 - to C 12 -carboxylic acids, such as, for example, formic acid, acetic acid, citric acid, oxalic acid, malonic acid, succinic acid, adipic acid, suberic acid, phthalic acid, agaric acid, trimesic acid, 1,2,3-propanetricarboxylic acid, and 1,4-, 2,3- or 2,6-naphthalenedicarboxylic acid are advantageously used. 
     Particular preference is given to using citrates, in particular sodium citrate and ammonium citrate. 
     The abovementioned salts can be used individually or as mixtures of two or more salts. Often, a mixture of two or more salts is more effective than one salt on its own, based on the amount used. 
     The salts are added in an amount which is 1 to 100% by weight, preferably 10 to 90% by weight and particularly preferably 15 to 75% by weight, of the saturation amount in the aqueous reaction medium under reaction conditions. 
     100% by weight saturation amount in the reaction medium is to be understood as meaning the amount of salt or salts which just still dissolves in the aqueous reaction medium of the monomers used in the presence of polymer a) and, if appropriate, further auxiliaries at the reaction temperature used, without precipitating. 
     According to the invention, the total amount of the at least one salt can be initially introduced in the reaction medium. However, it is also possible, if appropriate, to initially introduce merely some of the at least one salt in the reaction medium, and to introduce the, if appropriate, remaining amount or the total amount of the at least one salt to the reaction medium under polymerization conditions. However, it is to be ensured here that both the monomers used for the polymerization (until their complete reaction) and also the polymer b2) formed under reaction conditions in the aqueous reaction medium are always present as separate heterogeneous phase. 
     It is also of importance that, for the preparation of polymer b2), polymer a) can optionally also be used in combination with so-called neutral protective colloids known to the person skilled in the art, such as, for example, polyvinyl alcohols, poly-N-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone, polyalkylene glycols, and cellulose, starch or gelatin derivatives. However, in this connection, the weight fraction of optionally used neutral protective colloids is generally lower than the weight fraction of polymer a) and is often &lt;5% by weight, &lt;3% by weight or &lt;1% by weight, in each case based on the total amount of the monomers used for the polymerization for polymer b2). 
     According to the invention, the total amount of polymer a) can be initially introduced if appropriate in combination with the neutral protective colloids in the reaction medium. However, it is also possible to initially introduce if appropriate merely some of polymer a), if appropriate in combination with the neutral protective colloids, in the reaction medium, and to introduce the, if appropriate, remaining amount or the total amount of polymer a), if appropriate in combination with the neutral protective colloids to the reaction medium under polymerization conditions.

     Polymerization 
     To prepare the polymers b) in the presence of polymer a), the mixture to be polymerized can be polymerized both with the help of initiators that form free radicals, and through the action of high-energy radiation, under which should also be understood the action of high-energy electrons. 
     Initiators for the free-radical polymerization which can be used are the peroxo and/or azo compounds customary for this purpose, for example alkali metal or ammonium peroxydisulfates, diacetyl peroxide, dibenzoyl peroxide, succinyl peroxide, di-tert-butyl peroxide, tert-butyl perbenzoate, tert-butyl perpivalate, Cert-butyl peroxy-2-ethylhexanoate, tert-butyl permaleate, cumene hydroperoxide, diisopropyl peroxydicarbamate, bis(o-toluoyl) peroxide, didecanoyl peroxide, dioctanoyl peroxide, dilauroyl peroxide, Cert-butyl perisobutyrate, Cert-butyl peracetate, di-tert-amyl peroxide, tert-butyl hydroperoxide, azobisisobutyronitrile, azobis(2-amidonopropane) dihydrochloride or 2,2′-azobis(2-methylbutyronitrile). 
     Also suitable are initiator mixtures or redox initiator systems, such as, for example, ascorbic acid/iron(II) sulfate/sodium peroxodisulfate, tert-butyl hydroperoxide/sodium disulfite, tert-butyl hydroperoxide/sodium hydroxymethanesulfinate. 
     Preferably, organic peroxides are used. 
     The polymerization can also be carried out through the action of ultraviolet radiation, if appropriate in the presence of UV initiators. For polymerization under the action of UV rays, the photoinitiators or sensitizers customarily suitable for this purpose are used. These are, for example, compounds such as benzoin and benzoin ether, α-methylbenzoin or α-phenylbenzoin. So-called triplet sensitizers, such as benzyl diketals, can also be used. Serving as UV radiation sources are, for example, besides high-energy UV lamps, such as carbon arc lamps, mercury vapor lamps or xenon lamps, also low-UV light sources, such as fluorescent tubes with a high blue fraction. 
     The amounts of initiator or initiator mixtures used, based on monomer used, are between 0.01 and 10% by weight, preferably between 0.1 and 8% by weight, in particular between 1 and 6% by weight. 
     The preparation of polymer b1) can be carried out, for example, as solution polymerization, emulsion polymerization, inverse emulsion polymerization, suspension polymerization, inverse suspension polymerization or precipitation polymerization, without the methods which can be used being limited thereto. 
     It is preferred to carry out the polymerization as free-radical solution polymerization. Suitable solvents are, for example, water, alcohols, such as methanol, ethanol, n-propanol, isopropanol, n-butanol, sec-butanol, tert-butanol, n-hexanol and cyclo-hexanol, and also glycols, such as ethylene glycol, propylene glycol and butylene glycol, and the methyl or ethyl ethers of the dihydric alcohols, diethylene glycol, triethylene glycol, glycerol, dioxane, butyl acetate, ethyl acetate and toluene, where water, alcohols and mixtures thereof are particularly preferred. In particular, the solvent used is water or an aqueous-ethanolic mixture. 
     The solids content, i.e. the total amount of the substances other than the solvent present in the polymerization solution, based on the total solution, is usually in the range from 10 to 40% by weight, preferably in the range from 20 to 30% by weight. 
     The polymerization takes place in the temperature range from 30 to 100° C., preferably in the range from 50 to 90° C. It is usually carried out under atmospheric pressure, but can also proceed under reduced or increased pressure, preferably between 1 and 5 bar. 
     The polymerization can also be carried out semicontinuously by firstly introducing some, e.g. about 10%, of the mixture to be polymerized and initiator, heating the mixture to polymerization temperature and, after the polymerization has started, adding the remainder of the mixture to be polymerized according to the progress of the polymerization. 
     In one embodiment of the invention, the polymerization of polymer b) in the presence of polymer a) can also take place in such a way that the polymerization of polymer b) is carried out in a first step up to a conversion of 90% by weight, preferably of 95% by weight, further preferably of 99% by weight, particularly preferably of 99.9% by weight, based on the total amount of the monomers which are used for the polymerization of polymer b), in the absence of polymer a) and, in a second step, the reaction mixture resulting after the first step and comprising polymer b) and the remaining monomers is further polymerized in the presence of polymer a). At the start of the second step, the weight ratio of the amount of residual monomers from the preparation of polymer b) to the amount of polymer a) is preferably less than 1:100, further preferably less than 1:150, particularly preferably less than 1:200. 
     Regulators 
     The preparation of the polymers b) can take place in the presence of at least one molecular weight regulator. Regulators are used preferably in a use amount of from 0.0005 to 5% by weight, particularly preferably from 0.001 to 2.5% by weight and in particular from 0.01 to 1.5% by weight, based on the total weight of the monomers. 
     Regulators is the term generally used to refer to compounds with high transfer constants. Regulators increase the rate of chain transfer reactions and thus bring about a reduction in the degree of polymerization of the resulting polymers without influencing the gross reaction rate. 
     In the case of the regulators, a distinction can be made between mono-, bi- or polyfunctional regulators, according to the number of functional groups in the molecule which can lead to one or more chain transfer reactions. Suitable regulators are described in detail, for example, by K. C. Berger and G. Brandrup in J. Brandrup, E. H. Immergut, Polymer Handbook, 3rd Edition, John Wiley &amp; Sons, New York, 1989, pp. II/81-II/141.

     Furthermore, alcohols, such as, for example, isopropanol, can also be used as regulator. 
     Preferably, the regulators used are compounds which comprise sulfur in bonded form. 
     Compounds of this type are, for example, inorganic hydrogensulfites, disulfites and dithionites or organic sulfides, disulfides, polysulfides, sulfoxides and sulfones.

     Particular preference is given to organic compounds which comprise sulfur in bonded form. 
     Preferably, compounds used as polymerization regulators are thiols (compounds which obtain sulfur in the form of SH groups, also referred to as mercaptans). As regulators, preference is given to mono-, bi- and polyfunctional mercaptans, mercapto alcohols and/or mercaptocarboxylic acids. 
     Examples of these compounds are allyl thioglycolates, ethyl thioglycolate, cysteine, 2-mercaptoethanol, 1,3-mercaptopropanol, 3-mercaptopropane-1,2-diol, 1,4-mercaptobutanol, mercaptoacetic acid, 3-mercaptopropionic acid, mercaptosuccinic acid, thioglycerol, thioacetic acid, thiourea and alkyl mercaptans, such as n-butyl mercaptan, n-hexyl mercaptan or n-dodecyl mercaptan.

     Examples of polyfunctional regulators are compounds which comprise more than two sulfur atoms in bonded form. Examples thereof are trifunctional and/or tetrafunctional mercaptans. 
     Preferred trifunctional regulators are trifunctional mercaptans, such as, for example, trimethylpropane tris(2-mercaptoethanate), trimethylolpropane tris(3-mercapto-propionate), trimethylolpropane tris(4-mercaptobutanate), trimethylolpropane tris(5-mercaptopentanate), trimethylolpropane tris(6-mercaptohexanate), trimethylolpropane tris(2-mercaptoacetate), glyceryl thioglycolate, glyceryl thiopropionate, glyceryl thioethylate, glyceryl thiobutanate, 1,1,1-propanetriyl tris(mercaptoacetate), 1,1,1-propanethyltris(mercaptoethanate), 1,1,1-propanetriyl tris(mercaptopropionate), 1,1,1-propanetriyl tris(mercaptobutanate), 2-hydroxymethyl-2-methyl-1,3-propanediol tris(mercaptoacetate), 2-hydroxymethyl-2-methyl-1,3-propanediol tris(mercapto-ethanate), 2-hydroxymethyl-2-methyl-1,3-propanediol tris(mercaptopropionate), 2-hydroxymethyl-2-methyl-1,3-propanediol tris(mercaptobutanate).

The crosslinker is preferably selected from compounds with at least two ethylenically unsaturated, nonconjugated double bonds suitable for the free-radical copolymerization per molecule. 
     Suitable crosslinkers are, for example, acrylic esters, methacrylic esters, allyl ethers or vinyl ethers of at least dihydric alcohols.

Pentaerythritol triallyl ether is most preferred. 
     It is of course also possible to use mixtures of the abovementioned compounds. The crosslinker is preferably soluble in the reaction medium. If the solubility of the crosslinker in the reaction medium is low, then it can be dissolved in a monomer or in a monomer mixture, or else be metered in dissolved in a solvent which mixes with the reaction medium.

     It is essential that the total amount of the monomer to be used is polymerized to a conversion of &gt;90% by weight, often &gt;95% by weight or frequently &gt;98% by weight. 
     The preparation of polymer b2) can take place either in accordance with the so-called batch procedure where the entire amount of the monomers to be used is the initial charge, or in accordance with the so-called feed procedure. 
     If the polymerization takes place in a batch procedure, all of the components apart from the free-radical initiator are the initial charge in the polymerization reactor. The aqueous polymerization mixture is then heated with stirring to the polymerization temperature and then the free-radical initiator is added batchwise or continuously. 
     In a preferred embodiment, the method according to the invention is carried out by means of a feed procedure. Here, some or all of the reaction components are metered into the aqueous reaction medium in their entirety or partially, batchwise or continuously, together or in separate feeds. 
     Advantageously, at least some of the at least one salt and of polymer a), and, if appropriate, some of the at least one free-radical initiator and/or of the monomers to be used is initially introduced in the aqueous reaction medium with stirring and, under polymerization conditions, the, if appropriate, remaining amounts of the at least one organic or inorganic salt and polymer a), and the total amount or, if appropriate, remaining amount of the at least one free-radical initiator and/or the monomers to be used is metered in discontinuously or, in particular, continuously.

     Surfactants 
     Surfactants which can be used are anionic, cationic, nonionic and/or amphoteric surfactants. 
     Advantageous washing-active anionic surfactants for the purposes of the present invention are
         acylamino acids and salts thereof, such as acyl glutamates, in particular sodium acyl glutamate   sarcosinates, for example myristoyl sarcosine, TEA-lauroyl sarcosinate, sodium lauroyl sarcosinate and sodium cocoyl sarcosinate,

     Further advantageous anionic surfactants are
         taurates, for example sodium lauroyl taurate and sodium methyl cocoyl taurate,   ether carboxylic acids, for example sodium laureth-13 carboxylate and sodium PEG-6 cocamide carboxylate, sodium PEG-7 olive oil carboxylate   phosphoric acid esters and salts, such as, for example, DEA oleth-10 phosphate and dilaureth-4 phosphate,   alkylsulfonates, for example sodium cocomonoglyceride sulfate, sodium C 12-14  olefin-sultanate, sodium lauryl sulfoacetate and magnesium PEG-3 cocamide sulfate,   acyl glutamates, such as di-TEA palmitoyl aspartate and sodium caprylic/capric glutamate,   acyl peptides, for example palmitoyl hydrolyzed milk protein, sodium cocoyl hydrolyzed soya protein and sodium/potassium cocoyl hydrolyzed collagen, and carboxylic acids and derivatives, such as, for example, lauric acid, aluminum stearate, magnesium alkanolate and zinc undecylenate, ester carboxylic acids, for example calcium stearoyl lactylate, laureth-6 citrate and sodium PEG-4 lauramide carboxylate   alkylarylsulfonates.       

     Advantageous washing-active cationic surfactants for the purposes of the present invention are quaternary surfactants. Quaternary surfactants comprise at least one N atom which is covalently bonded to four alkyl or aryl groups. Alkylbetaine, alkylamido-propylbetaine and alkylamidopropylhydroxysultaine, for example, are advantageous. Further advantageous cationic surfactants for the purposes of the present invention are also
         alkylamines,   alkylimidazoles and   ethoxylated amines
 
and in particular salts thereof.
       

     Advantageous washing-active amphoteric surfactants for the purposes of the present invention are acyl/dialkylethylenediamines, for example sodium acyl amphoacetate, disodium acyl amphodipropionate, disodium alkyl amphodiacetate, sodium acyl amphohydroxypropylsulfonate, disodium acyl amphodiacetate, sodium acyl amphopropionate, and N-coconut-fatty acid-amidoethyl-N-hydroxyethyl glycinate sodium salts. 
     Further advantageous amphoteric surfactants are N-alkylamino acids, for example aminopropylalkylglutamide, alkylaminopropionic acid, sodium alkylimidodipropionate and lauroamphocarboxyglycinate. 
     Advantageous washing-active nonionic surfactants for the purposes of the present invention are
         alkanolamides, such as cocamides MEA/DEA/MIPA,   esters which are formed by esterification of carboxylic acids with ethylene oxide, glycerol, sorbitan or other alcohols,   ethers, for example ethoxylated alcohols, ethoxylated lanolin, ethoxylated polysiloxanes, propoxylated POE ethers, alkyl polyglycosides, such as lauryl glucoside, decyl glycoside and cocoglycoside, glycosides with an HLB value of at least 20 (e.g. Belsil®SPG 128V (Wacker)).       

     Further advantageous nonionic surfactants are alcohols and amine oxides, such as cocoamidopropylamine oxide. 
     Preferred anionic, amphoteric and nonionic shampoo surfactants are specified, for example, in “Kosmetik and Hygiene von Kopf bis Fuβ” [Cosmetics and hygiene from head to toe], Ed. W. Umbach, 3rd Edition, Wiley-VCH, 2004, pp. 131-134, to which reference is made at this point in its entirety. 
     Among the alkyl ether sulfates, sodium alkyl ether sulfates based on di- or triethoxylated lauryl and myristyl alcohol, in particular, are preferred. They surpass the alkyl sulfates to a considerable degree with regard to the insensitivity toward water hardness, the ability to be thickened, low-temperature solubility and, in particular, skin and mucosa compatibility. They can also be used as the sole washing raw materials for shampoos. Lauryl ether sulfate has better foaming properties than myristyl ether sulfate, but is inferior to this in terms of mildness. 
     Alkyl ether carboxylates with average and particularly with relatively high belong to the mildest surfactants overall, but exhibit a poor foaming and viscosity behavior. They are often used in combination with alkyl ether sulfates and amphoteric surfactants in hair-washing compositions. 
     Sulfosuccinic acid esters (sulfosuccinates) are mild and readily foaming surfactants, but, on account of their poor ability to be thickened, are preferably only used together with other anionic and amphoteric surfactants and, on account of their low hydrolysis stability, are preferably only used in neutral or well buffered products. 
     Amidopropylbetaines are virtually insignificant as sole washing raw materials since their foaming behavior and their ability to be thickened are only moderately pronounced. By contrast, these surfactants have excellent skin and eye mucosa compatibility. In combination with anionic surfactants, their mildness can be synergistically improved. Preference is given to the use of cocamidopropylbetaine. Amphoacetates/amphodiacetates have, as amphoteric surfactants, very good skin and mucosa compatibility and can have a hair-conditioning effect and/or increase the care effect of additives. They are used similarly to the betaines for optimizing alkyl ether sulfate formulations. Sodium cocoamphoacetate and disodium cocoamphodiacetate are most preferred. 
     Alkyl polyglycosides are nonionic washing raw materials. They are mild, have good universal properties, but are weakly foaming. For this reason, they are preferably used in combination with anionic surfactants. 
     Sorbitan esters likewise belong to the nonionic washing raw materials. On account of their excellent mildness, they are preferably used in baby shampoos. As low-foamers, they are preferably used in combination with anionic surfactants. 
     It is advantageous to choose the washing-active surfactant(s) from the group of surfactants which have an HLB value of more than 25, those which have an HLB value of more than 35 being particularly advantageous. 
     According to the invention, it is advantageous if one or more of these surfactants are used in a concentration from 1 to 30% by weight, preferably in a concentration of from 5 to 25% by weight and very particularly preferably in a concentration of from 10 to 20% by weight, in each case based on the total weight of the composition. 
     Polysorbates 
     Washing-active agents which can also advantageously be incorporated into the compositions according to the invention are polysorbates. 
     Polysorbates advantageous for the purposes of the invention are, for example,
         polyoxyethylene(20) sorbitan monolaurate (Tween®20, CAS No. 9005-64-5)   polyoxyethylene(4) sorbitan monolaurate (Tween®21, CAS No. 9005-64-5)   polyoxyethylene(4) sorbitan monostearate (Tween®61, CAS No. 9005-67-8)   polyoxyethylene(20) sorbitan tristearate (Tween®65, CAS No. 9005-71-4)   polyoxyethylene(20) sorbitan monooleate (Tween®80, CAS No. 9005-65-6)   polyoxyethylene(5) sorbitan monooleate (Tween®81, CAS No. 9005-65-5)   polyoxyethylene(20) sorbitan trioleate (Tween®85, CAS No. 9005-70-3).   Polyoxyethylene(20) sorbitan monopalmitate (Tween®40, CAS No. 9005-66-7) and   polyoxyethylene(20) sorbitan monostearate (Tween®60, CAS No. 9005-67-8) are particularly advantageous.       

     The polysorbates are advantageously used in a concentration of from 0.1 to 5% by weight and in particular in a concentration of from 1.5 to 2.5% by weight, based on the total weight of the composition, individually or as a mixture of two or more polysorbates.

Reference is hereby made to the content of the specified reference in its entirety. Particular preference is given to cosmetic compositions according to the invention which comprise polyurethanes as so-called associative thickeners. Polyurethanes of this type are described, for example, in EP 1584331, EP 1013264, WO 2006/002813, EP 1241198, WO 02/083093, WO 02/088212, WO 02/044236, EP 725097, U.S. Pat. No. 4,079,028, EP 618243. Particular preference is given to cosmetic compositions according to the invention which comprise polyurethanes as described in EP 1584331, paragraphs [0009] to [0016]. Reference is hereby made to the disclosures of the abovementioned specifications in their entirety. 
     Preservatives 
     The cosmetic compositions according to the invention can also comprise preservatives. Compositions with high water contents have to be reliably protected against the build-up of germs. Suitable preservatives for the cosmetic compositions according to the invention are described, for example, on page 38, line 10 to page 39, line 18 of WO 2006/106140. Reference is hereby made to the content of the specified reference in its entirety. 
     Complexing agents: Since the raw materials and also the shampoos themselves are prepared predominantly in steel apparatuses, the end products can comprise iron (ions) in trace amounts. In order to prevent these impurities adversely affecting the product quality via reactions with dyes and perfume oil constituents, complexing agents, such as salts of ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid, of nitrilotriacetic acid, of iminodisuccinic acid or phosphates are added. 
     UV photoprotective filters: In order to stabilize the ingredients present in the compositions according to the invention, such as, for example, dyes and perfume oils, against changes as a result of UV light, UV photoprotective filters, such as, for example, benzophenone derivatives, can be incorporated. Suitable UV photoprotective filters for the cosmetic compositions according to the invention are described, for example, on page 39, line 20 to page 41 line 10 of WO 2006/106140. Reference is hereby made to the content of the specified reference in its entirety. 
     Antioxidants: A content in the compositions according to the invention of antioxidants is generally preferred. According to the invention, antioxidants which can be used are all antioxidants which are customary or suitable for cosmetic applications. Suitable antioxidants for the cosmetic compositions according to the invention are described, for example, on page 41, line 12 to page 42 line 33 of WO 2006/106140. Reference is hereby made to the content of the specified reference in its entirety. 
     Buffers: Buffers ensure the pH stability of the compositions. By and large, citrate, lactate and phosphate buffers are used. 
     Solubility promoters: They are used in order to dissolve care oils or perfume oils to give clear solutions and also to maintain clear solutions at low temperature. The most common solubility promoters are ethoxylated nonionic surfactants, e.g. hydrogenated and ethoxylated castor oils. 
     Antimicrobial agents: Furthermore, antimicrobial agents can also be used.

     Shampoo Types 
     Depending on the hair quality or scalp problem, additional requirements are placed, if appropriate, on shampoos. The mode of action of the preferred shampoo types with the most important additional effects or most important specific objectives is described below. 
     According to the invention, preference is given, for example, to shampoos for normal or rapidly greasing or damaged hair, antidandruff shampoos, baby shampoos and 2-in-1 shampoos (shampoo and rinse in one). 
     Shampoos for normal hair: hair washing should free hair and scalp from the skin sebum formed in sebaceous glands, the inorganic salts emerging from sweat glands with water, amino acids, urea and lactic acid, flaked-off skin particles, environmental dirt, odors and, if appropriate, residues of hair cosmetic treatments. Normal hair means short to shoulder length hair which is only slightly damaged. Accordingly, the fraction of conditioning auxiliaries should be optimized to this hair type. 
     Shampoos for rapidly greasing hair: increased sebum production of the sebaceous glands in the scalp leads to a straggly, unattractive hairstyle just 1-2 days after hair washing. Oil and wax-like skin sebum constituents weigh down the hair and lower the friction from hair to hair and thus reduce the hairstyle hold. The actual hair cosmetic problem in the case of rapidly greasing hair is thus the premature collapse of voluminous hairstyles. In order to avoid this, it is necessary to prevent the surface of the hair becoming weighed down and too smooth and supple. This is preferably achieved through the surfactant base of washing raw materials that are good at cleaning and of particularly low substantivity. Additional care substances which would be added to the skin sebum, such as refitting substances or conditioning auxiliaries, are only used in shampoos for rapidly greasing hair with the greatest of care, if at all. Voluminizing shampoos for fine hair can be formulated comparably. 
     Shampoos for dry, stressed (damaged) hair. The structure of the hair in the course of hair growth is changed as a result of mechanical influences such as combing, brushing and especially back combing (combing against the direction of growth), as a result of the effect of UV radiation or visible light and as a result of cosmetic treatments, such as permanent waving, bleaching or coloring. The scale layer of the hair has an increasingly stressed appearance from the root to the end; in extreme cases, it is completely worn away at the end, and the hair ends are split (split ends). Damaged hair can in principle no longer be restored to the condition of healthy hair regrowth. However, it is possible to come very close to this ideal condition with regard to feel, shine and combability through use of shampoos according to the invention with, if appropriate, high fractions of care substances (conditioners). 
     An even better effect than with a shampoo is achieved with a haircare composition according to the invention for example in the form of a rinse or cure treatment after hair washing. 
     2-in-1 shampoos according to the invention are particularly strongly caring shampoos in which, through the conception as “shampoo and rinse in one”, the additional benefit of care is placed equally alongside the basic benefit of cleaning. 2-in-1 compositions according to the invention comprise increased amounts of conditioners. 
     Antidandruff shampoos: Compared with antidandruff hair tonics, antidandruff shampoos according to the invention have the advantage that they not only reduce the formation of new visible flakes through corresponding active ingredients to combat an attack of dandruff, and prevent such formation in the case of long-term use, but also remove flakes which have already flaked off with the hair washing. After rinsing out the wash liquor, however, only a small but adequate amount of the active ingredients remains on the scalp and hair. There are various antidandruff active ingredients which can be incorporated into the shampoo compositions according to the invention, such as, for example, zinc pyrithione, ketoconazole, elubiol, clotrimazole, climbazole or piroctone olamine. In addition, these substances have an effect that normalizes the flaking. 
     The basis of antidandruff shampoos largely corresponds to the formulation of shampoos for normal hair with a good cleaning effect. 
     Baby shampoos: in a preferred embodiment of the invention, the shampoo preparations according to the invention are baby shampoos. These are optimally skin and mucosa compatible. Combinations of washing raw materials with very good skin compatibility form the basis of these shampoos. Additional substances for further improving the skin and mucosa compatibility and the care properties are advantageously added, such as, for example, nonionic surfactants, protein hydrolyzates and panthenol or bisabolol. All necessary raw materials and auxiliaries, such as preservatives, perfume oils, dyes etc., are selected under the aspect of high compatibility and mildness. 
     Shampoos for dry scalp: in a further preferred embodiment of the invention, the shampoo preparations according to the invention are shampoos for dry scalp. The primary aim of these shampoos is to prevent the scalp from drying out, since dry scalp can lead to irritation, reddening and inflammation. As in the case of baby shampoos, combinations of washing raw materials with very good skin compatibility form the basis of these shampoos. In addition, if appropriate, refatting agents and humectants, such as, for example, glycerol or urea, can be used. 
     The shampoo compositions according to the invention can also be present as shampoo concentrates with increased surfactant contents of 20-30%. They are based on special washing raw material combinations and consistency regulators which ensure good distributability and spontaneous foaming ability, even in a small use amount. A particular advantage is, for example, the possibility of achieving the productivity of 200 ml of shampoo with a 100 ml bottle. 
     Supply Form 
     It is advantageous if the compositions according to the invention are stored in a tube, a pot, a bottle or squeezable bottle and are applied from this. Accordingly, tubes, pots, bottles or squeezable bottles which comprise a composition according to the invention are also in accordance with the invention.

     Determination of the K Values 
     The K values were measured in accordance with Fikentscher, Cellulosechemie, Vol. 13, pp. 58 to 64 (1932) at 25° C. in aqueous solution and are a measure of the molecular weight. The solution of the polymers comprises 1 g of polymer in 100 ml of solution. 
     The K value is measured in a micro-Ubbelohde capillary type M Ic from Schott. 
     Wet combability (European, bleached hair tresses): 
     Determination of Blank Value 
     Before the determination, the bleached hair tress (length about 24 cm/weight 2.7-3.3 g) was firstly shampooed twice with Texapon®NSO for a total of 1 minute and rinsed for 1 minute in order to achieve a defined wetness and swelling. 
     Then, the tress was precombed such that knots were no longer present in the hair. 
     The tress was then fixed to the holder and combed into the fine-toothed side of the test comb using the fine-toothed side of the comb. The hair was placed in the test comb for each measurement evenly and free from tension. 
     The measurement was started and evaluated using the EGRANUDO® software (Frank). The measurement was repeated 5-10 times. The measurements were carried out in a climatically controlled room at about 65% relative humidity and 21° C. 
     The calculated average was noted together with the standard deviation.

     Good shampoos are also obtained if, instead of the polymer combination according to example 1, the polymer combinations of examples 2 to 13 are used. 
     The polymer combinations for the use according to the invention are also suitable for use in hairstyling preparations, in particular hair foams (aerosol foams with propellent gas and pump foams without propellent gas), hairsprays (pump sprays without propellent gas) and hair gels. 
     Propellants are the customarily used propellants. Preference is given to mixtures of propane/butane, pentane, dimethyl ether, 1,1-difluoroethane (HFC-152 a), carbon dioxide, nitrogen or compressed air. 
     Aerosol Hair Foam 
     a) 0.1 to 10% by weight of a cosmetic polymer 
     b) 55 to 99.8% by weight of water and/or alcohol 
     c) 5 to 20% by weight of a propellant 
     d) 0.1 to 5% by weight of a polymer combination suitable according to the invention 
     e) 0 to 10% by weight of further constituents 
     Further constituents which may be used are, inter alia, all emulsifiers used customarily in hair foams. Suitable emulsifiers may be nonionic, cationic or anionic or amphoteric. 
     Examples of nonionic emulsifiers (INCI nomenclature) are laureths, e.g. laureth-4; ceteths, e.g. ceteth-1, polyethylene glycol cetyl ether; ceteareths, e.g. ceteareth-25, polyglycol fatty acid glycerides, hydroxylated lecithin, lactyl esters of fatty acids, alkyl polyglycosides. 
     Examples of cationic emulsifiers are cetyldimethyl-2-hydroxyethylammonium dihydrogenphosphate, cetyltrimonium chloride, cetyltrimonium bromide, cocotrimonium methyl sulfate, quaternium-1 to x (INCI). 
     Anionic emulsifiers can be selected, for example, from the group of alkyl sulfates, alkyl ether sulfates, alkylsulfonates, alkylarylsulfonates, alkyl succinates, alkyl sulfosuccinates, N-alkoyl sarcosinates, acyl taurates, acyl isethionates, alkyl phosphates, alkyl ether phosphates, alkyl ether carboxylates, alpha-olefinsulfonates, in particular the alkali metal and alkaline earth metal salts, e.g. sodium, potassium, magnesium, calcium and ammonium and triethanolamine salts. The alkyl ether sulfates, alkyl ether phosphates and alkyl ether carboxylates can have between 1 and 10 ethylene oxide or propylene oxide units, preferably 1 to 3 ethylene oxide units, in the molecule. 
     A preparation suitable according to the invention for styling gels can, for example, have the composition as follows:
