Patent ID: 8062630

Claim:
A surfactant-free cosmetic, dermatological or pharmaceutical composition which comprises at least one copolymer obtained by free-radical copolymerization of A) acryloyldimethyltaurine or an acryloyldimethyltaurate or a mixture thereof, B) optionally, one or more further olefinically unsaturated, noncationic, option crosslinking comonomer which has at least one oxygen, nitrogen, sulfur or phosphorus atom and has a molecular weight of less than 500 g/mol, C) optionally, one or more olefinically unsaturated, cationic comonomer which has at least one oxygen nitrogen, sulfur or phosphorus atom and has a molecular weight of less than 500 g/mol, D) optionally, one or more silicon-containing component capable of free-radical polymerization and having a functionality of one, F) a compound of formula (IV) wherein R 3 and R 4 are H or —CH 3 , R 5 is H or —CH 3 R 6 is an n-aliphatic, iso-aliphatic, olefinic, cycloaliphatic, arylaliphatic or aromatic (C 1 -C 30 ) hydrocarbon radical, v and w are independently of one another of from 0 to 500, it being necessary for the sum of v and w to be on average ≧1 EO is an ethylene oxide unit, PO is a propylene oxide unit, Y is a chemical bridge, selected from the group consisting of —O—, —C(O)—, —C(O)—O—, —S—, —O—CH 2 —CH(O—)—CH 2 OH, —O—CH 2 —CH(OH)—CH 2 —O—, —O—SO 2 —O—, —O—SO—O—, —PH—, —P(CH 3 )—, —PO 3 —, —NH—, and —N(CH 3 )— G) the copolymerization taking place optionally in the presence of at least one polymeric additive having number-average molecular weights of from 200 g/mol to 10 9 g/mol, wherein the cosmetic, dermatological or pharmaceutical composition is free of surfactant.
