Permanent coloring of hair using carbonate salts and bicarbonate salts and using percarbamic acid precursors

Transition metal complexes as dye forming catalysts in hair coloring compositions

A bleaching composition comprising a peroxygen bleaching compound and preferably a bleach activator. When nitrone scavengers are used in such composition, dye and/or fabric damage caused by radical generations of the peroxygen bleach (e.g., through thermal or transmit ion metal catalyzed degradation) can be minimized.

Bleach detergent compositions comprising nitrones and nitroso spin traps

Bleaching compositions and a method are reported using peroxynitrite for bleaching as an active substance. Stains and soil can be removed from fabrics, household hard surfaces, dentures and other substrates.

Peroxynitrite based bleaching systems

A bleach system is described that includes a peroxygen compound which is hydrogen peroxide or an inorganic substance that generates hydrogen peroxide in water, a C.sub.1 -C.sub.30 imine and a transition metal catalyst. Use of the transition metal catalyst promotes the interaction of the hydrogen peroxide and imine thereby enhancing bleach performance.

Bleaching compositions containing imine hydrogen peroxide and a

Novel fabric conditioning compounds derived from glycerol and betaine are described. Fabric conditioning compositions containing the compounds, which provide effective fabric softening and antistatic benefits are also described.

Fabric conditioning molecules derived from glycerol and betaine

Bleaching compositions containing imine, hydrogen peroxide and a

A bleaching composition and method is described that includes contacting a substrate with a peroxygen compound and a polymeric bleach precursor which has a monomer repeating unit of the structure: ##STR1## wherein R is hydrogen or a C.sub.1 -C.sub.20 radical selected from the group consisting of alkyl, cycloalkyl, alkenyl, cycloalkenyl and aryl radicals; and

Polymeric bleach precursors and methods of bleaching substrates

Novel bleach catalysts, a method for bleaching substrates using these catalysts and detergent compositions containing the catalysts are reported. The catalysts are quaternary imine salts. Substrates such as fabrics may be bleached in an aqueous solution containing these salts and a peroxygen compound.

Imine quaternary salts as bleach catalysts

A bleaching composition is described that includes a peroxygen compound such as sodium perborate, an oxygen transfer agent in the form of a quaternary imine salt and a bleach precursor. The quaternary imine salt at relatively low concentrations enhances the activity of the precursor. A method for bleaching substrates is also provided, especially a method for cleaning fabrics.

Activation of bleach precursors with imine quaternary salts

A novel pseudoceramide which has improved dispersibility in aqueous solutions and which can be produced by an economical manufacturing process. The process for producing new pseudoceramides and cosmetic compositions containing the new pseudoceramides are also disclosed.

Synthetic ceramides and their use in cosmetic compostions

The present invention is directed to novel compounds having the formula: ##STR1## wherein R is a C.sub.8 -C.sub.24 substituted or unsubstituted alkyl or alkenyl group;

Isethionate esters of alkyl alkoxy carboxylic acid

Novel bleach catalysts, a method for bleaching substrates using these catalysts and detergent compositions containing the catalysts are reported. The catalysts are sulfonimines. Substrates such as fabrics may be bleached in an aqueous solution containing the sulfonimine and a peroxygen compound.

Sulfonimines as bleach catalysts

Novel bleach catalysts, a method for bleaching substrates using these catalysts and detergent compositions containing same are reported. The bleaches are of the quaternary oxaziridinium salt type. Substrates such as fabrics may be bleached in an aqueous solution containing the quaternary oxaziridinium salt.

Quaternary oxaziridinium salts as bleaching compounds
