Patent ID: 8603447

Claim:
Agent for treating keratin-containing fibers comprising, in a cosmetically acceptable carrier: at least one nonionic starch modified with propylene oxide, and at least one nonionic film-forming and/or nonionic setting polymer having at least one structural unit chosen from the structural units of formulae (M1) to (M6), wherein R is a hydrogen atom or a methyl group, R′ is a hydrogen atom or a (C 1 to C 4 ) acyl group, R″ and R″″ are, mutually independently, a (C 1 to C 7 ) alkyl group or a hydrogen atom, R′″ is a linear or branched (C 1 to C 4 ) alkyl group or a (C 2 to C 4 ) hydroxyalkyl group; wherein the modified nonionic starch has an average molecular weight (weight average) of 100 to 2000 kDa; and wherein the modified nonionic starch has a propylene oxide content of 1 to 20 wt %, based on weight of the modified starch.
