The present application relates to oligomeric antimicrobial compounds and compositions comprising the same. The oligomers are formed by polymerizing aminoalkyl(meth)acrylate or aminoalkyl(meth)acrylamide monomer(s). In addition to imparting materials with broad spectrum antimicrobial activity, the oligomers can impart antimicrobial activity to substrates such as hair and skin.

Alkylaminoalkyl oligomers as broad-spectrum antimicrobial agent

The present invention is directed to the use of hydrophilic terpolymers in hard surface cleaners which provide easier cleaning for surface soils such as hard water stains, soap scum, limescale, mud, food, toilet stains, oil, grease, particulates and the like as well as anti-fog effects on hard surfaces such as glass, mirrors, ceramic and plastic by causing water droplets to coalesce into a film.

Amphoteric polymer for treating hard surfaces

A polyelectrolyte complex composition capable of viscosifying or thickening an aqueous high salt-containing system comprises a mixture of at least one anionic polymer and at least one cationic polymer in an inorganic salt-containing aqueous medium. The anionic polymer and cationic polymer can each be linear and water-soluble, crosslinked and water-soluble, or crosslinked and water-insoluble or swellable.

Polyelectrolyte complexes as thickeners for high ionic strength salt solutions

A cleaning composition for hard surfaces containing a polymeric compound comprising a main backbone derived from at least the following monomeric components: (I) 20 to 99.9% by weight of at least one cationic monomer according to formula (I) wherein Rand Rare, independently of one another, hydrogen or C-Calkyl; Rand Rare, independently of one another, hydrogen or alkyl, hydroxyalkyl, carboxyl alkyl, carboxyamide alkyl or alkoxyalkyl having from 1 to 18 carbon atoms; and Y represents an anion, and (II) 0.1 to 80% by weight of a hydrophobic unsaturated nonionic monomer that polymerizes in the presence of an initiator; optionally up to 60% by weight of a water-soluble monomer (III) which is different from either monomer (I) or monomer (II); and optionally reactant (IV), a crosslinking agent in an amount between 0 to 10% by weight, gives improved soil removal properties, antimicrobial and biofilm suppression properties as well as resistance to resoiling and staining.

Water-soluble functionalized cationic copolymers obtainable by a process which comprises reacting a cationic base polymer which contains amino groups with at least one functional compound reactive to at least a part of the amino groups on the base polymer, are useful in personal care and cosmetic formulations.

Preparation of functionalized cationic polymers and their application in personal care

The invention is directed to a method of making ultra high molecular weight diallyldialkyl ammonium salt homopolymers, compositions thereof and use of compositions as a fixative in papermaking.

High molecular weight poly(dially dialkyl) ammonium salts

The present invention is directed to polymeric compounds comprising a main backbone derived from at least the following monomeric components: (I) 20 to 99.9% by weight, preferably 50% to 99% by weight, of at least one cationic monomer according to formula (I), and (II) 0.1 to 80% by weight of a hydrophobic unsaturated nonionic monomer that polymerizes in the presence of an initiator, optionally a water-soluble monomer (III) different from either monomer (I) and monomer (II), and optionally a crosslinking agent (IV). Said compounds are particularly useful to overcome the problem of dye bleeding and/or dye transfer in laundry processes. 

Hydrophobically modified polymers as laundry additives

The molecular weight of cationic polymers, such as diallyldialkyl ammonium chloride, can be increased by controlled addition of a water-soluble radical initiator at an elevated reaction temperature with agitation to prepare high molecular weight, crosslinked, water-soluble cationic polymers.

High molecular weight cationic polymers obtained by post-polymerization crosslinking reaction

The present invention relates to a method for controlling pitch and stickies deposit in a pulp and papermaking process using crosslinked cationic polymers made by controlled addition of a water soluble radical initiator at reaction temperature with agitation for chain extension and crosslinking.

Use of water-soluble crosslinked cationic polymers for controlling deposition of pitch and stickies in papermaking

High molecular weight, water-soluble, cross-linked cationic polymers are prepared by reacting amine-functionalized cationic base polymers, in which the monomer units of the base polymer contain from about 0.05 to about 5.0% amine functionalized monomer units and from about 95 to about 99.95% additional monomer units, including cationic monomer units and optional non-cationic monomer units, with an amount of a cross-linking agent, reactive with the amines of the base polymer, providing between about 0.02 to about 3.0 equivalents of cross-linking agent reactive groups per each mole of amine. The polymers are useful as coagulants and as coatings.
