Definitions

  • the present invention relates to derivatives of poly (amines), and more specifically relates to oxirane, carboxylic acid derivatives of synthetic, amine-containing polymers.
  • Amphoteric, water-soluble polymers are unique chemical species which are capable of carrying different molecular formal charges depending on the pH of the solution in which they are dissolved.
  • the behavior of an amphoteric molecule, especially a polymer, can be represented schematically by the diagram below:
  • an amphoteric polymer As an amphoteric polymer is brought from an acidic medium into a basic medium, it passes through three distinct regions, I-III.
  • region I the basic amino group is protonated which causes the amine group to carry a positive (i.e. cationic) charge which is known as an ammonium ion.
  • the cationic amine has, non-covalently associated with it, a counter ion, Y-, which effectively counterbalances the positive charge of the ammonium ion.
  • the ammonium ion may, but does not necessarily, become stabilized by the deprotonated carboxylic acid group which carries an overall negative (i.e. anionic) charge.
  • the amphoteric species now has an overall neutral charge because the positive ammonium ion is counterbalanced by the negative carboxylate ion which effectively cancels out the charge of the molecule.
  • the molecule is said to be zwitterionic.
  • the ammonium ion becomes deprotonated and the amphoteric molecule is dominated by the overall anionic charge of the carboxylate ion.
  • the anionic charge of the carboxylate ion in region III is non-covalently coordinated with a positive counter ion, M + , which helps to neutralize the anionic charge of the molecule.
  • Amphoteric polymers made by copolymerization of an anionic monomer and a cationic monomer have been known since at least 1951.
  • researchers at Cornell University (Wagner, H.L. et al. J. Phys. Colloid Chem. 1951, 55, 1512.) reported the preparation of an amphoteric polymer by copolymerization of vinylpyridine and acrylic acid as shown below:
  • amphoteric copolymers were made by polymerizing cationic N-dimethylaminoethyl acrylate and various acidic acrylate monomers, such as acrylic acid as shown below:
  • amphoteric polymers have become well known in various applications.
  • amphoteric copolymers of the general structure shown below known under the tradename AmphomerTM and by the tradename AmphomerTM
  • amphoteric copolymers to improve shampoo formulations.
  • U.S. Pat. No. 5,609,862 issued March 11, 1997, suggests that amphoteric copolymers, like the MerquatTM polymers above, can improve the conditioning properties of shampoos by replacing the cationic polymers which are typically employed.
  • the amphoteric polymers are said to allow better deposition (i.e. conditioning) control by moderating the cationic character of the polymer.
  • the amphoteric polymers are disclosed to have improved compatibility with anionic surfactants commonly used in shampoos and to offer styling (hair fixative) benefits. Such multifunctionality is commonly described for shampoos known as 2-in-l systems.
  • Japanese application JP 08283127-A discloses that hair shampoos containing Merquat-type amphoteric polymers offer improvements in shampoo foaming, improvements in the wet and dry hair feel and help to aid in preventing static fly-away in dry hair.
  • Japanese patent application JP 09020626-A1 published Jan. 21, 1997 discloses the use of amphoteric polymers in hair styling products where the polymers are said to provide good hair styling and hair cleansing properties.
  • Amphoteric random copolymers such as described above are typically manufactured by carefully controlling the polymerization reaction and adding the various monomers in known measured amounts so that the molar ratios [i.e. (a,b,c,d,e); (n); (p,q) and (x,y,z)] are well established.
  • the anionic portion of the polymer typically helps control the glass transition temperature, T g , of the polymer and the solubility of the polymer in aqueous mediums.
  • the cationic portion of the amphoteric polymers helps to control deposition of the polymers onto skin and hair which are known to be physiologically anionic in nature.
  • Amphoteric graft copolymers are produced differently than the random copolymers discussed above.
  • graft copolymerization a fully intact polymer is treated with a reactive reagent which covalently (i.e. permanently) attaches itself to some reactive site on the polymer backbone.
  • these sites on the polymer include: hydroxyl (- OH), carboxyl (-COOH), amino (-NR 2 ), or sulfhydryl (-SH) groups.
  • Natural polymers particularly polysaccharides, such as, for example, cellulose, starch and chitosan are conveniently amenable to grafting reactions. Often, these grafts afford polysaccharides with amphoteric characteristics.
  • an amphoteric potato starch known by the trade name SolanaceTM and by the INCI designation: Potato Starch Modified, has been described (see, Pasapane, J. et al. Comet. Toilet. Manf. Worldwide 1996, 175). It has been disclosed that this particular amphoteric polysaccharide has unique thickening and emulsifying properties, particularly in personal care formulations of high alkalinity such as dyes and perms.
  • Chitosan a naturally-occurring, amine-containing polysaccharide, lends itself nicely to graft reactions to afford amphoteric polysaccharides.
  • Several amphoteric derivatives of chitosan are known in the art. For example, a review of the biological significance of amphoteric chitosans made by carboxyalkylation of chitosan has been published (see Muzzarelli, R.A.A. In Chitin and Chitosan, Skjak-Break, G., Anthonse, T., Sandford, P., Eds. Elsevier Applied Science, London 1989, 87.).

  • amphoteric graft copolymers are made by the reaction of some type of activated acetic acid derivative, i.e XCH2CO2H, where X is typically a chlorine or bromine leaving group an amine-containing polymer.
  • Such activated a-haloacetic acid reagents are considered highly toxic and corrosive because hydrolysis of the reagent affords the corresponding acid, i.e. hydrochloric or hydrobromic acid as a by-product.
  • hydrolysis of the reagent affords the corresponding acid, i.e. hydrochloric or hydrobromic acid as a by-product.
  • controlling reaction stoichiometry can be a challenge.
