Surface active polymers with molecular weight ranging from 5600 up to 30,000 were synthesized by the oxyethylation of polyoxpropylene glycol adducts of ethylene diamine, which range in molecular weight from 4750 up to 6750. The toxicological properties of some of these new nonionics indicated that they would be nontoxic when used in contact with the skin and scalp. Their typical physical properties such as wetting, emulsifying, foaming and thickening are reported. A variety of cosmetic formulations has been prepared utilizing these new nonionic surface active polymers. This illustrates their versatility when used in products as diverse as a floating bath oil, an antiperspirant gel, a cold cream and a sun screen lotion.
