A latex composition for hair care containing a hybrid-graft copolymer of a sulfopolyester and an acid-functional polymer segment. The acid-functional polymer segment is formed from at least one acid-functional monomer, at least one ethylenically unsaturated monomer, and at least one amide-containing monomer. Such compositions exhibit superior curl retention even at high humidity.

Hair care compositions

This invention relates to an aqueous acrylic resin crosslinked with difunctional acrylated urethane oligomers which are used in nail polish compositions. The nail polish compositions exhibit quick dry time, excellent leveling, good water/detergent resistance, abrasion resistance and durability with good adhesion to nails for long-wear nail polish applications and yet are easily removed from the nail.

Aqueous nail polish compositions containing acrylic resins crosslinked

Provided is a process useful for making acrylic polymers of methacrylic acid having improved shear stability. The process provides polymers useful as enteric coatings for medicaments having improved coating efficiency of pharmaceutical forms. Also provided are medicaments in solid form coated with said polymers.

Process for improving mechanical shear stability of acrylic enteric

Provided is a process useful for preparing acrylic polymers of methacrylic acid and ethyl acrylate. The process provides polymers useful as enteric coatings for medicaments in solid form, said coatings having improved effectiveness, reproducibility and coating efficiency. Also provided are medicaments in solid form coated with such polymers.
