The invention relates to a method for treating a fabric, notably a method for preventing or recovering degradation of a fabric, by using a cationic polygalactomannan, wherein the cationic polygalactomannan contains non-ionic hydroxyalkyl substituents and has a Brookfield RVT viscosity at 25° C. and 20 rpm greater than 700 mPa·s, at a concentration of 1 wt % in water.

Method for treating fabrics

The present invention relates to a cosmetic cleansing composition comprising at least: a) one or more vegetable oil(s), in an amount of at least 0.3 pbw relative to the total weight of the composition, b) from about 1 pbw to about 40 pbw, relative to the total weight of the composition, of a surfactant system comprising at least one sultaine surfactant, c) at least 0.1 pbw, relative to the total weight of the composition, of a non-ionic thickener which is a polyether endcapped by fatty acid esters, and d) at least 0.1 pbw, relative to the total weight of the composition, of a non-ionic solubilizer which is a mono- or poly-alkyl or alkenyl ester of an alkoxylated fatty acid.

Personal care compositions and methods for using such compositions

The invention relates to a method for mending split ends of hair comprising contacting the hair with split ends with a composition comprising at least cationic polygalactomannan containing non-ionic hydroxyalkyl substituents and having a Brookfield RVT viscosity at 25&#xb0; C. and 20 rpm greater than 700 mPa&#xb7;s, at a concentration of 1 pbw in water, for instance comprised between 700 and 1,200 mPa&#xb7;s.

Hair repair composition

The invention relates to a method for mending split ends of hair comprising contacting the hair with split ends with a composition comprising at least one non-cellulosic polysaccharide derivative containing at least one cationic group, wherein said non-cellulosic polysaccharide derivative has a cationic degree of substitution DScat greater than 0.15.

A variety of products are obtained from modified guar protein extracts, for example, cosmetic or pharmacological or plant protective compositions or domestic care agents containing such products; these are particularly suitable for treating and/or modifying and/or coating the skin, hair, hard and textile surfaces and, notably, plant leaf surfaces.

Substituted guar protein extracts and production/applications thereof

The present invention relates to compositions for household care which include a cationic nanogel, particularly for treating and/or modifying hard or textile surfaces. The composition particularly enables a hydrophilization of hard surfaces, particularly useful in cleaning or rinsing operations.

Composition for household care containing a cationic nanogel

The invention relates to a composition for processing and/or modifying surfaces, particularly hard surfaces or textile surfaces. The composition includes a synthetic copolymer including cationic units and other units

Copolymer for surface processing or modification

Synthetic microgel polymer compositions are useful for treating and/or modifying hard surfaces, in particular by promoting the hydrophilization thereof, notably in cleaning or rinsing operations.

Synthetic microgel polymer compositions for treating and/or modifying hard surfaces

The invention relates to a composition that can form a gel comprising a copolymer. Said composition is an aqueous composition, and the copolymer is a star copolymer. The invention also relates to useful copolymers, especially for the inventive compositions.
