Abstract:
A new synthesis of .omega.-hydroxy acids, which employs commercially available starting materials and lowers the cost of production. The process involves coupling a fatty acyl group by enamine chemistry, followed by a ring expansion and selective reduction of ketoacid.
Abstract:
A process for making a silica-polyolefin composite. The process has the steps of (a) reacting silica particles and an alkyl halosilane in the presence of a solvent and a catalyst to form silane-functionalized silica particles and (b) reacting the silane-functionalized silica particles with a vinyl-terminated polyolefin. There are other processes for making a silica-polyolefin composites. There are other processes for making metal phosphate-polyolefin composites.

Abstract:
Cosmetic skin conditioning compositions containing ferulyl salicylate. The inventive compositions provide control of sebum secretion from sebocytes, improved oil control and improved skin feel, prevent shine and stickiness, while also providing anti-aging benefits which results in reduced appearance of wrinkles and aged skin, improved skin color, treatment of photoaged skin, improvement in skin's radiance and clarity and finish, and an overall healthy and youthful appearance of the skin.

Abstract:
Tetraesters of a C4-C5 aliphatic tetracarboxylic acid and OXO-alcohols and plasticized compositions containing said tetraesters are provided.
Abstract:
Methoxycinnamyloxy salicylate and method of its preparation is described. Methoxycinnamyloxy salicylate is useful in skin care compositions, to improve the appearance of the skin.

Abstract:
Novel insect repellents having ester bonds such that when deposited on skin, natural skin cleaning agents provide slow release of the active.
Abstract:
Cosmetic skin care compositions containing a high performing retinyl ester which is an ester of retinol with C18, unsaturated, non-essential, cis-6 and/or cis-12 fatty acid. The ester is preferably selected from the group consisting of gamma-retinyl linolenate, retinyl petroselinate, and retinyl cis-12-octadecenoate.
