Abstract

The present disclosure relates to methods for inhibiting color fading in hair and for improving the color durability and stability of artificial color of hair. The methods entail forming a layer-by-layer (LbL) film on hair, and optionally forming a cationic surface layer on the LbL film. The LbL film is formed by applying a cationic silane layer on the hair and subsequently applying an anionic polymer layer on the cationic silane. Multiple cationic silane layers and anionic polymer layers can sequentially be added as desired. Finally, the LbL film may comprise a cationic surface layer.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A method for inhibiting color fading in artificially colored hair comprising:
(a) applying a cationic aminoalkoxysilane layer on the artificially colored hair,
wherein the aminoalkoxysilane is selected from the group consisting of 3-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane, N-(2-aminoethyl)-3-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane, (3-triethoxysilylpropyl)-diethylenetriamine, 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APTES), N-(2-aminoethyl)-3-amino-propyltriethoxysilane, (3-triethoxysilylpropyl)-diethylentriamine, 3-aminoethyltriethoxysilane (AETES), 3-aminopropylmethyldiethoxysilane (APMDES), N-cyclohexylaminomethyltriethoxysilane, and a mixture thereof; and subsequently

(b) applying an anionic polymer layer on the cationic aminoalkoxysilane layer,
wherein the anionic polymer is selected from the group consisting of polyacrylic acid, polymethacrylic acid, carboxyvinylpolymer, an acrylate copolymer, a carboxymethycellulose a carboxy guar gum, a copolymer of ethylene and maleic acid, an acrylate silicone polymer, polysulfonic acid, a polystyrene sulfonate, a copolymer of methacrylic acid and acrylamidomethylpropane sulfonic acid, a copolymer of acrylic acid and acrylamidomethylpropane sulfonic acid, and a mixture thereof; and

(c) optionally, repeating (a) and (b) to form additional layers;
thereby forming a layer-by-layer (LbL) film on the artificially colored hair.

2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
(d) applying a cationic polymer surface layer to the LbL film, wherein the cationic polymer is a polyacrylamide having quaternary ammonium groups.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the aminoalkoxysilane is 3-aminopropyltriethyoxysilane (APTES).

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the anionic polymer is a polystyrene sulphonate.

5. The method of claim 2 , wherein the polyacrylamide having quaternary ammonium groups is a polyacrylamidopropyltrimonium.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the LbL film is formed by:
(a) applying a solution comprising the cationic aminoalkoxysilane to the hair and forming the cationic aminoalkoxysilane layer; followed by
(b) applying a separate solution comprising the anionic polymer to the cationic aminoalkoxysilane layer and forming the anionic polymer layer; and
(c) optionally, repeating (a) and (b) to form additional layers.

7. The method of claim 6 , further comprising:
(d) applying a solution comprising the cationic polymer to the LbL film and forming the cationic polymer surface layer wherein the cationic polymer is polyacrylamide having quaternary ammonium groups.

8. The method of claim 6 , wherein the solutions comprising the cationic aminoalkoxysilane of (a), the anionic polymer of (b), and the cationic polymer of (d) are aqueous solutions.

9. A method for inhibiting color fading in artificially colored hair comprising:
(a) applying a solution comprising 0.1 wt. % to 25 wt. % of an aminoalkoxysilane to the artificially colored hair and forming a cationic polymer layer on the hair wherein the aminoalkoxysilane is selected from the group consisting of 3-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane, N-(2-aminoethyl)-3-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane, (3-triethoxysilylpropyl)-diethylenetriamine, 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APTES), N-(2-aminoethyl)-3-amino-propyltriethoxysilane, (3-triethoxysilylpropyl)-diethylentriamine, 3-aminoethyltriethoxysilane (AETES), 3-aminopropylmethyldiethoxysilane (APMDES), N-cyclohexylaminomethyltriethoxysilane, and a mixture thereof; and subsequently
(b) applying a solution comprising 0.1 wt. % to 5 wt. % of a polystyrene to the aminoalkoxysilane layer and forming an anionic polymer layer on the aminoalkoxysilane layer; and
(c) optionally, repeating (a) and (b) to form one or more additional layers;
thereby forming a layer-by-layer (LbL) film on the artificially colored hair.

10. The method of claim 9 , further comprising:
(d) applying a solution comprising 0.1 wt % to 20 wt. % of a polyacrylamide having quaternary ammonium groups to the LbL layer to form a cationic polymer surface layer.
