(57) Abstract: A substantially crosslinked alkali-swellable acrylate copolymer rheology modifier, a surfactant, an alkaline material, and a suspension or stabilizing agent such as a silicone, oily or pearlescent material. A stable aqueous composition containing various compounds such as a substantially insoluble material that needs to be converted. Furthermore, the present invention relates to the formation of a cationic hair dye composition that is rheologically stable and phase stable. The invention further relates to the addition of the acidic material after the addition of the alkaline material to lower the pH of the composition without adversely affecting the viscosity of the composition. |
