Abstract:
Sulfate and sulfonate derivatives of unsaturated fatty alcohols, processes for making them, and methods of using them are disclosed. In one aspect, a monounsaturated fatty alcohol composition is made by reducing a metathesis-derived monounsaturated alkyl ester. The fatty alcohol composition is then converted to a sulfate or sulfonate derivative by one or more of alkoxylation, sulfation, sulfonation, and sulfitation. Of particular interest are the sulfate and ether sulfate derivatives.
Abstract:
A cleansing composition comprising a water-compatible emollient that provides enhanced skin-feel characteristics, as well as viscosity-building properties. The water-compatible emollient is an alkoxylated derivative of glyceryl cocoate containing both propylene oxide and ethylene oxide groups in the molecular structure. The cleansing composition also comprises one or more surfactants, and optional additives, and can be formulated into a body wash, shampoo, facial cleanser, liquid hand soap, dish detergent or car wash detergent.

Abstract:
Water-in-oil emulsions are disclosed that comprise: a) water; b) from about 10 to 65 % by weight of an oil; and c) an emulsification system comprising a polysiloxane polyalkyl polyether copolymer and a phthalic anhydride derivative, substantially permanently maintaining the water and oil as an emulsion, the emulsification system being substantially free from aluminum and zirconium salts, the emulsion being at a pH of from about 5 to 10.

Abstract:
Disclosed are hard surface cleaning compositions comprising detergent surfactant and detergent builder and a hydrotrope in an amount sufficient to prevent filming and/or streaking after a surface is cleaned.
