A method for making high softening point linear and cyclic alkylsilicone waxes includes reacting a C30+ alpha olefin wax with a silicone hydride polymer in the presence of a catalyst. The high softening point linear and cyclic alkylsilicone waxes have softening points approximating those of natural waxes and, in consequence, can be used in applications which traditionally employ natural waxes.

High softening temperature synthetic alkylsilicone wax

The present invention relates to leave-on compositions for personal care comprising trimethylsilylalkylsilsesquioxanes, particularly trimethylsilyl-n-octylsilsesquioxanes (Caprylyl Trimethicones). Said trimethylsilylalkylsilsesquioxanes are especially useful in formulating emulsions.

Protective coatings having branched trimethylsilylated alkylsilsesquioxane emulsions

This invention relates to liquid rinse-off compositions for personal care comprising trimethylsilylalkylsilsesquioxanes, particularly trimethylsilyl-n-octylsilsesquioxanes (Caprylyl Trimethicones). Preferably the rinse-off compositions are shampoos containing pearlescent and/or opacifying agents.

Liquid rinse-off compositions for personal care comprising a trimethyl-silylalkylsilsesquioxane

The present invention relates to improved and novel silicone gel compositions comprising at least one low molecular weight volatile organosilicone fluid and at least one elastomer-like silicone composition as matrix. The improved silicone gels of the invention can readily and easily be spread on the skin and possess a desirable dull appearance during application. The silicone films which result after the gel has remained on the skin about 15 to 20 minutes after application, are smooth, slippery, non-tacky and non-shiny with a low detectable residue thereof. Silicone gels applied in alkylsiloxanes exhibit significant improvements over those applied in permethylcyclosiloxanes or in other known media or by known methods.

Cosmetic compositions containing silicone gel

Alkylmethylsiloxane-dimethylsiloxane polyalkylene oxide copolymers useful as surfactants for both oil-in-water emulsions and silicone-in-water emulsions are disclosed.

Delivery of hydroxy carboxylic acids

The present invention relates to compositions comprising non-toxic and safe for human contact and ingestion volatile or non-volatile silicone-aliphatic hydrocarbon hybrid fluids and a non-volatile silicone-aliphatic hydrocarbon hybrid wax which have the physical consistency of a gel which are of use in a wide variety of personal care applications and when applied to the human skin components within these compositions adsorb quickly into the upper layers of the status corneum, while other components form non-tacky occlusive films on the outer surface of the stratum corneum.

Organosilicone gel compositions for personal care

The present invention provides greater than 99% pure bis(triorganosilyl)hydroxycarboxylates of the general formulae:

The present invention relates to compositions consisting essentially of a narrow dispersity trimethylsilylated silica in a volatile and/or non-volatile silicone-aliphatic hydrocarbon hybrid fluid. Improvements in the range of properties and benefits, which the mixtures of the present invention may provide, include a broad range of viscosities, from about 100 cs to about 10000 cs, a higher % trimethylsiloxysilicate, a wider range of sensory profiles, and non-occlusivity or occlusivity. In all cases the mixtures are both clear and safe for human contact.

Mixtures of trimethylsilylated silicas and alkylsiloxanes

The invention provides high purity branched alkylsilsesquioxane containing fluids of the general formula Me.sub.3 SiO--(Me.sub.3 SiORSiO).sub.x --SiMe.sub.3, wherein Me is methyl, R is a monovalent hydrocarbon substituent, and x is 1 to 6, and an essentially zero waste process for their synthesis in quantitative yield; and especially n-octylsilsesquioxane containing fluids which are structural analogs of phenylsilsesquioxane containing fluids of the general formula Me.sub.3 SiO--(Me.sub.3 SiOPhSiO).sub.x --SiMe.sub.3, wherein Me is methyl, Ph is phenyl, x is 1 to 6, and have substantially identical sensory properties to their phenylsilsesquioxane counterparts.

High purity branched alkylsilsesquioxane fluids

The invention provides high purity alkoxytrimethylsilane fluids of the general formula ROSiMe.sub.3 wherein Me is methyl and R is a monovalent aliphatic hydrocarbon substituent which ranges from 14 to about 20 carbons, the fluid being substantially free of organic and inorganic contaminants, wherein the alkoxytrimethylsilanes are produced by a novel process, and can be readily incorporated into cosmetic formulations containing organic components without heating and provide improved sensory characteristics compared to those provided by the corresponding alcohols.

High purity alkoxytrimethylsilane fluids

A composition for conditioning the skin which includes a silicone gum, a volatile methylsilicone fluid, and a volatile alkylmethylsiloxane. When applied to the human skin, the composition adsorbs approximately twenty percent faster, has a less greasy feel during application, and provides a coating on the skin which is smoother, than comparative products.
