Mousse-forming shampoo compositions

A mousse forming hair treatment composition, which may be a cleansing and/or conditioning composition, comprising a foamable concentrate comprising at least one surfactant, an aqueous carrier, and which is substantially free of anionic surfactants, and an aerosol propellant.

Mousse forming hair treatment composition

A mousse forming hair treatment composition, which is a cleansing and conditioning composition and is totally free of anionic surfactants, wherein said composition consists essentially of: (a) a foamable concentrate consisting essentially of n-methyl glucamide with a chain length of C12-C14 as the nonionic surfactant; (b) an aqueous carrier; (c)an aerosol propellant; (d) a thinner selected from the group consisting of polyethylene glycol and polypropylene glycol; and (e) an anionic styling polymer.

Mousse forming hair treatment composition containing n-methyl alkyl glucamide surfactant

An heteropolysaccharide known as Biopolymer PS 87 comprises glucose, galactose, mannose, glucuronic acid and fucose. Biopolymer PS 87 is pseudoplastic, has a consistency at 20.degree. C. of at least 150 poise and a yield stress value at 20.degree. C. of at least 30 dynes/cm.sup.2. Biopolymer PS 87 is synthesized by a strain of Bacillus polymyxa or a genetically similar micro-organism and has many domestic and industrial uses as a suspending agent or thickener.

Microbial heteropolysaccharide

An heteropolysaccharide known as Bipolymer PS 87 comprises glucose, galactose, mannose, glucuronic acid and fucose. Biopolymer PS 87 is pseudoplastic, has a consistency at 20.degree. C. of at least 150 poise and a yield stress value at 20.degree. C. of at least 30 dynes/cm.sup.2. Bipolymer PS 87 is synthesised by a strain of Bacillus polymyxa or a genetically similar micro-organism and has many domestic and industrial uses as a suspending agent or thickener.

Detergent composition containing a microbial heteropolysaccharide

Aqueous drilling fluid and mobility control solution for use on recovery

A liquid bleach composition comprises a hydrogen peroxide precursor which includes as an enzyme an alcohol oxidase and as a substrate for the enzyme the corresponding alcohol, the enzyme and the substrate being incapable of substantial interaction in the composition. The composition contains less than 1 unit of catalase for every 2 units of the alcohol oxidase so that peroxide formation, when the composition is diluted with 100 times its volume of water to trigger the interaction of the enzyme and its substrate, it not substantially impaired. The diluted composition has a pH value of from 7.5 to 11. Preferably, the composition also comprises detergent active compound.

Bleach composition

A food composition thickened or suspended with an heteropolysaccharide known as Biopolymer PS 87 comprises glucose, galactose, mannose, glucuronic acid and fucose. Bipolymer PS 87 is pseudoplastic, has a consistency at 20.degree. C. of at least 150 poise and a yield stress value at 20.degree. C. of at least 30 dynes/cm.sup.2.
