Claims
- 1. A hair setting composition in the form of a spray consisting essentially of, as a film former, a copolymer based on t-butyl acrylate or t-butyl methacrylate or a mixture thereof, having a K value of from 10 to 50 and obtained by free radical polymerization of (A) from 75-99% by weight of t-butyl acrylate, t-butyl methacrylate or a mixture thereof as monomer (A), (B) from 1-25 wt. % of acrylic acid, methacrylic acid or a mixture thereof as monomer (B) and (C) from 0-10% by weight of a C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 -n-alkyl(meth)acrylate, the amounts of combined components (A-C) constituting 100% by weight of the copolymer, and the carboxyl groups of the copolymer having been partially or wholly neutralized by an amine, in combination with solvents and propellants for a hair spray composition.
- 2. A hair setting composition as claimed in claim 1, wherein the film former is composed of
- A) from 85 to 90% by weight of tert-butyl acrylate, tert-butyl methacrylate or a mixture thereof as monomer A,
- B) from 10 to 15% by weight of acrylic acid, methacrylic acid or a mixture thereof as monomer B and
- C) from 0 to 10% by weight of a C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 -n-alkyl(meth)acrylate copolymerizable monomer C.
- 3. A hair setting composition as claimed in claim 1, wherein the film former is composed of
- A) from 75 to 90% by weight of tert-butyl acrylate as monomer A,
- B) from 10 to 25% by weight of methacrylic aci as monomer B and
- C) from 0 to 10% by weight of a C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 -n-alkyl(meth)acrylate copolymerizable monomer C.
- 4. A hair setting composition as claimed in claim 2, wherein the film former is composed of
- A) from 85 to 90% by wight of tert-butyl acrylate as monomer A,
- B) from 10 to 15% by weight of methacrylic acid as monomer B and
- C) from 0 to 10% by weight of a C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 -n-alkyl(meth)acrylate copolymerizable monomer C.
- 5. A method for fixing hair, which comprises: applying to hair the composition of claim 1 containing said copolymer as a film former.
- 6. A hair setting composition as claimed in claim 1, wherein said copolymerizable monomer C is the methyl, ethyl, n -propyl or n-butyl ester of acrylic acid or methacrylic acid.
- 7. A hair setting composition as claimed in claim 1, wherein said solvent is a member selected from the group consisting of ethanol, isopropanol, acetone, n-propanol, n-butanol, 2-methoxy-1-propanol, n-pentane, n-hexane, cyclohexane, n-heptane, n-octane and dichloromethane.
- 8. A hair setting composition as claimed in claim 1, wherein said propellant is a member selected from the group consisting of propane, n-butane, isobutane, 2,2-cimethylbutane, isopentane, dimethylether, fluorotrichloromethane, dichlorodifluoromethane and dichlorotetrafluoroethane.
- 9. The hair setting composition of claim 1, wherein said copolymer constitutes from 0.1 to 20% by weight of the composition also containing solvents and propellants.
- 10. A hair setting composition in the form of a spray consisting of, as a film former, a copolymer based on t-butyl acrylate or t-butyl methacrylate or a mixture thereof, having a K value of from 10 to 50 and obtained by free radical polymerization of (A) from 75-99% by weight of t-butyl acrylate, t-butyl methacrylate or a mixture thereof as monomer (A), (B) from 1-25 wt. % of acrylic acid, methacrylic acid or a mixture thereof as monomer (B) and (C) from 0-10% by weight of a C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 -n-alkyl(meth)acrylate, the amounts of combined components (A-C) constituting 100% by weight of the copolymer, and the carboxyl groups of the copolymer having been partially or wholly neutralized by an amine, in combination with solvents and propellants for a hair spray composition.
