Novel water soluble polymers in solution or water-in-oil emulsion form are disclosed containing quaternary ammonium monomers; and optionally (meth)acrylic acid or 2-(meth)acrylamido-2-methylpropane sulfonic acid; methylene bis-acryamide and the like; and a C -C alkyl (meth) acrylate acrylamide or methacrylamide and the use thereof in hair, skin and nail conditioning; papermaking; and subterranean well drilling and well cementing operations.

Water soluble polymer composition and method of use

Novel branched or crosslinked polymers containing (meth)acrylamidopropyltrimethyl ammonium halide; (meth)acrylic acid or 2-(meth)acrylamido-2-methylpropane sulfonic acid; methylene bis-acryamide and the like; and a C -C alkyl (meth) acrylate and the use thereof in papermaking, subterranean well drilling and well cementing operations is disclosed.

Ampholyte polymer composition and method of use

Disclosed are novel aqueous modified starch solutions, such solutions can contain high levels of the modified starch and remain stable such that on standing, the solution does not form a precipitate, become a non pourable gel, separate or spoil due to attack from microorganisms. The use of the novel aqueous modified starch solutions in a cosmetically acceptable medium for the treatment of a keratin-containing substrate is also disclosed.

Modified starch solutions and their use in personal care

A hair conditioning shampoo composition is disclosed that contains (a) a surfactant component that can contain anionic surfactants and/or amphoteric surfactants (optionally including zwitterionic and nonionic surfactants), (b) a dispersed, insoluble, nonionic silicone hair conditioning agent, (c) a water soluble, organic, ampholytic polymer hair conditioning agent; and (d) an aqueous carrier. The conditioning shampoo composition optionally contains an organic, water insoluble, liquid.

Conditioning shampoo compositions

Novel conditioning polymers containing (meth)acrylamidopropyltrimethyl ammonium chloride, meth(acrylic acid) or 2-(meth)acrylamido-2-methylpropane sulfonic acid and, optionally, a C.sub.1 -C.sub.22 alkyl (meth) acrylate and the use thereof in a cosmetically acceptable medium for the treatment of a keratin-containing substrate are disclosed.

Ampholyte polymers for use in personal care products

Synergistic antimicrobial combinations consisting essentially of comprising 2,4,4'-trichloro-2'-hydroxydiphenyl ether and 1,2-dibromo-2,4-dicyanobutane are disclosed. Methods for inhibiting microbial growth using these synergistic antimicrobial combinations are also disclosed.
