DETAILED DESCRIPTION [0016] The inventors of the present have discovered long chain acetal adducts of ketocarbon esters, especially levulinate esters. Such carboxy-ester acetal adducts offer a combination of properties that make them useful as solvents for a variety of uses. There is still a need in the art for solvents from 4/135 renewables that offer an advantageous combination of one or more attributes such as solubility with one or more components, reactivity, volatility, toxicity, environmental profile and cost. It will also be an advantage if such solvents could be easily modified to adjust the chemical and physical properties of the solvent to meet the needs of a specific application. It would be advantageous if the solvents from a renewable source provide a waterborne coating composition, for example, a paint, dye, adhesive, sealant, clear-coat coating or caulking composition, cleaning compositions, an aromatic composition or personal care compositions that meet one or more customer needs as applicable to the specific composition. [0017] Ketocarboxy ester acetals, sometimes mentioned in this document as adducts of acetals, are compounds that have the general formula (1): .OR 'where R 1 is C 7 alkyl. 18 R 2 is hydrogen or C 4 alkyl, each R 3 , R 4 , R 5 , R 6 and R 7 is, independently, a hydrogen or C 4 alkyl and, a is 2-3 and b is 0-1. [0018] More specifically, R 1 is a C7.18 alkyl, R 2 is methyl, each R 3 , R 4 , and R 5 is independently hydrogen or a C-1-3 alkyl, R 6 is hydrogen or a C ^ alkyl , R 7 is hydrogen, a is 2-3, and b is 0-1. [0019] Even more specifically R 1 is C 7 alkyl. 18 , R 2 is methyl, each R 3 , R 4 , and R 5 is hydrogen, R 6 is hydrogen or a C ^ alkyl, R 7 is 5/135 hydrogen, a is 2, and b is 0. [0020] In a specific embodiment R 1 is C 7 alkyl. 18 , R 2 is methyl, R 3 is hydrogen, R 6 is hydrogen, methyl, or ethyl, R 7 is hydrogen, a is 2, and b is 0. [0021] Preferably, the acetal adduct of formula (1) is the adduct 1,2-propanediol of a levulinic acid ester, having the formula (1a): (la> wherein R 1 is as defined above, and is specifically a C 7 alkyl. 18 , which can be straight or branched. Where R 1 is an ethylhexyl group 2 in formula (1a), 2-ethylhexyl levulinate propylene glycol ketal (2EHLPK) is obtained. Where R 1 is a 1-nonyl group in the formula (1a), 1-nonyl levulinate propylene glycol acetal (1N-LPK) is obtained. Where R 1 is a group 3,5,5-trimethylhexyl in formula (1a), 3,5,5-trimethylhexyl levulinate propylene glycol acetal (355TMH-LPK) is obtained. [0022] The acetal adducts of formula (1) can be obtained by the acid-catalyzed reaction of the corresponding ketoadic ester of formula (2) with a diol of formula (3): (2) wherein each of R 1 , R 2 , R 3 , R 4 , R 5 , R 6 , and R 7 , and the integers a and b are as defined above. The reaction conditions are described in WO 09/032905, for example. Alternatively, the acetal adducts of formula (1) can be obtained by transesterification of acetal ester (4) (obtained as described in WO 09/032905, for example) 6/135 wherein each of R 2 , R 3 , R 4 , R 5 , R 6 , and R 7 and the integers a and b are as defined above, and R 8 is a C 4 alkyl group, for example, a methyl group or ethyl. In transesterification, acetal (4) comes in contact with alcohol R 1 OH comprising the substituent of R 1 in which R 1 is as described in formula (1). A catalyst (for example, a metal oxide or metal complex as described in WO 09/032905) can be used to accelerate the reaction, in the presence of excess alcohol. Catalysts include, for example, those where the metal is Sn, Zn, Ge (ll), Cu (ll), Ni (ll), Fe (ll), Fe (lll), Al (lll), Pt (IV), V (IV) or V (V), specifically Sn, Zn, Ni, Al and Pt as oxides or complexes with, other binders such as sulfides or acetates. In one embodiment, the metal complex is a dialkyl metal oxide, and the alkyl groups on the dialkyl metal oxide are C- | to C 10 , alternatively C 2 to C 4 alkyl groups, alternatively n-butyl groups, for example, a tin alkoxide such as dibutyl tin oxide (DBTO). Transesterification can be carried out at elevated temperatures, for example, about 160 to about 220 ° C, with concomitant removal of R 1 OH. [0023] Many of the compounds that fall within the scope of formulas (2) and (3) may come from renewable sources. Acetal adducts thus provide an entry point for a wide variety of solvents from renewable sources. For example, levulinic acid is produced by the thermochemical treatment of various carbohydrates such as cellulose; Subsequent esterification with alkanols from renewable sources and levalinate ester acetalization with polyhydroxy compounds such as glycerol or propylene glycol produces a bioderivative solvent. 7/135 [0024] Acetal adducts are especially useful in waterborne coating compositions. Waterborne coating compositions cover a wide variety of coating compositions, including water-reducible coating compositions and latex compositions. Latex resin coatings are waterborne dispersions of sub-micrometer polymer particles. The dispersions are formed by polymerization of the emulsion, and can then be further formulated for a variety of applications. Latex coating compositions, for example, latex paint compositions, can be formulated with a variety of additives, including a coalescing or coalescing solvent. Coalescent solvents promote film formation. The coalescence solvent serves as a plasticizer, softening the resin particles by reducing the glass transition temperature (Tg) of the particles and allowing them to melt in a continuous film. For example, a latex paint composition containing a coalescing solvent is coated on a substrate and then cured by coalescence, where water and the coalescing solvent are removed sequentially or simultaneously. During the formation of the film, the coalescing solvent softens the particles of polymer binder, melting them together in a polymer film interlaced so that the polymer binder will not redissolve in the water / solvent that was originally transported. [0025] Water-reducible coating compositions are produced using traditional polymerization techniques instead of emulsion polymerization and generally contain a water-miscible organic solvent. The polymer binder is generally modified to make it compatible with the water / organic solvent system. The modification may involve a hydrophilic comonomer, such as an organic acid that can transmit water reducibility to the binders 8/135 oligomencos or polished lerals. Another modification is to disperse the binder in an aqueous phase with the use of a surfactant, which in some cases, can be chemically incorporated into the polymer binder during the synthesis of the binder. In each case, the resulting polymers are subsequently mechanically dispersed in the aqueous phase. When polymer particles (liquid or solid) are formed in water, the water-reducible coating compositions are an emulsion (for liquid polymers) or a dispersion (for solid polymers). Another version of water-reducible coating composition is based on the polymer binder being soluble in the organic solvent / water mixture or partially soluble in the organic solvent / water mixture, since the polymer chains form aggregates that are dispersed in the liquid aqueous phase. The solvent is divided between the polymer aggregates and the water. Thermoset acrylics, epoxies, polyesters, epoxy esters and alkyds are examples of binders used in water-reducible coating compositions. [0026] Although the water-borne coating compositions contain a polymer binder and water, the different properties of the binders result in different formulation requirements. As mentioned above, water-reducible compositions are generally initially dissolved in a non-aqueous solvent to reduce viscosity and aid dispersion in water. The compositions can additionally be formulated with a variety of additives, within them a coalescing solvent to promote film formation. The coalescing solvent smooths out the particles of the polymer binder by reducing the glass transition temperature (Tg) of the particles to below the processing temperature and allowing them to melt with a continuous film. Therefore, when a water-reducible coating composition containing a coalescence solvent is coated on a substrate, the coating cures by coalescence, where the 9/135 water and the coaescence solvent evaporate sequentially and simultaneously. During the evaporation of the solvent or water, the concentration of dispersed latex particles or microemulsion droplets increases to the point where the microemulsion particles or droplets come into contact with the coaescence solvent that bonds and the coalescent softens the polymer binder particles , allowing the particles to fuse into an interlaced polymer mesh film. In some cases, the coalescent does not evaporate and can serve as a plasticizer for the final film. Chemical curing through a crosslinking agent or an oxidative process can take place after the film is significantly cured by solvent evaporation mechanism. [0027] There remains a need for solvents, preferably solvents derived from renewable sources, that can be used in a waterborne coating composition, for example, a paint, dye, adhesive, sealant, clearcoat coating or caulk composition that meets a or more customer needs as applicable for the specific coating composition such as hydrolytic stability, good viscosity, balanced drying time or good flow and leveling in the coating composition; or good adhesion of a dry film, good resistance to displacement, durability, impact resistance, flexibility, water resistance, chemical resistance, stain resistance, gloss or hardness in the resulting coating. It would be of added advantage if solvents derived from renewable sources provide a waterborne coating composition with a minimum low film-forming temperature and low content of volatile organic compounds with appreciable storage stability. [0028] It has been found that acetal adducts (1), specifically (1a), find use in waterborne coating compositions. Without being bound by theory, it is believed that acetal adducts 10/135 function primarily as a coalescing solvent during film formation. However, it is believed that acetal adducts may have more than one function, including one or more solubilization, solvent coupling, reduction of VOC content, reduction of film formation temperature, plasticization and the like. In an advantageous feature, the selection of groups R 1 , R 2 , R 3 , R 4 , R 5 , R 6 , and R 7 and b in the acetal adducts of formula (1) allows the chemical and physical properties of the acetal adducts to be adjusted to achieve the desired combination of properties, for example, hydrolytic stability and VOC reduction. [0029] In a specific modality of R 1 , R 2 , R 3 , R 4 , R 5 , R 6 , and R 7 and whole numbers a and B are selected to provide a desired coalescence activity, that is, the capacity of the acetal adduct to plasticize the polymer binder and assist in the formation of a coating film. When necessary, the presence of ester and ether functionally allows the interaction of the acetal adduct with different types of functional groups of polymer binders. [0030] Acetal adducts (1), specifically (1a), are additionally advantageous in the sense that the structure of the compounds can be adjusted to alter the volatility of the compounds. Volatility itself manifests itself in a number of key properties for coalescing solvents, including, but not limited to, vapor pressure, relative evaporation rate, flammability, odor and volatile organic compound (VOC) content. The desired volatility profile of a solvent varies considerably by application, and there are generally conflicting considerations. For example, highly volatile solvents require less energy to remove after use, however, in many cases it also requires special handling due to the higher flammability. The appropriate choice of groups R 1 , R 2 , R 3 , R 4 , R 5 , R 6 and R 7 and integers a and b can additionally provide a selected volatility. In particular, 2EH 11/135 LPK, 1N-LPK and 355TMH-LPK have low acceptable volatility and low flammability (for example, have an evaporation point of about 99 ° C (210 ° F) or more) and have high coalescence efficiency, while decreasing concentrations of VOC in the coating formulas to a level below about 5.0 to about 10g VOC per liter of the coating composition. [0031] Water-borne coating compositions comprise water; a polymer binder; and an acetal adduct (1). Coating compositions can be formulated (for example, the type and amount of polymer binder, water, other co-solvents if present, and additives), such as a paint, adhesive, sealant, coloring, clear-coat coating composition , caulking or tincture. Advantageously, water-borne compositions can maintain a pH for more than about 1 week, specifically more than about 2 weeks, and more specifically more than about 4 weeks within a range of about 7.5 for about 10, or about 7.5 to about 9.0 or about 8.5 to about 9.5, or about 8.5 to about 9.5. In another embodiment, water-borne compositions can maintain a stable initial pH that is in the range of about 7.5 to about 10, or about 7.5 to about 9.0, or about 8.5 to about 9.5, specifically about 9.0, for more than about 1 week, specifically more than about 2 weeks, and more specifically more than about 4 weeks. For example, the initial pH of waterborne compositions, for example, latex dye compositions comprising an adduct (1a) specifically acetal (1), varies by less than 0.5 pH units at 23 ° C, specifically less than 0.2 pH units at 23 ° C pH, above about 1 week, above about 2 weeks or above about four weeks, or even more. [0032] In one embodiment, the coating composition Waterborne 12/135 is a latex coating composition comprising a latex polymer binder, water and an acetal adduct (1), specifically (1a). [0033] The latex polymer binder can be selected from a variety of polymers known in the art of latex coating compositions, specifically latex dye compositions, latex adhesive compositions, latex sealant compositions, caulking compositions latex, latex coloring compositions and latex dye compositions. For example, the latex polymer binder can be derived from monomers comprising vinyl acetate or at least one acrylic monomer such as acrylic acid, acrylic acid Ο νιο alkyl esters, methacrylic acid or Ct alkyl esters. 10 of methacrylic acid, optionally copolymerized with one or more of styrene, hydroxyethyl acrylate, hydroxypropyl acrylate, α-methyl styrene, vinyl chloride, acrylonitrile, methacrylonitrile, ureido methacrylate, vinyl acetate, vinyl esters or monocarboxylic acids branched (eg vinyl esters of versatile acid (referred to as vinyl versatates) commercially available under the VeoVa® brand by Shell Chemical Company or sold as Exxar® Neo Vinyl Esters by ExxonMobil Chemical Company), itaconic acid, crotonic acid, maleic acid , fumaric acid and ethylene. It is also possible to include C4-8 conjugated dienes such as 1,3-butadiene, isoprene and chloroprene. In one embodiment, the monomers include one or more n-butyl acrylate, methyl metracrylate, styrene and 2-ethylhexyl acrylate. [0034] Pure acrylics can be used (comprising acrylic acid, methacrylic acid, an acrylate ester and / or a methacrylate ester as the main monomers); styrene-acrylics (comprising styrene and acrylic acid, methacrylic acid, an acrylate ester, and / or a methacrylate ester as the main monomers); vinyl-acrylics (comprising vinyl 13/135 acetate and acrylic acid, methacrylic acid, an acrylate ester and / or a methacrylate ester as the main monomers); and acrylated ethylene vinyl acetate copolymers (comprising ethylene, vinyl acetate and acrylic acid, methacrylic acid, an acrylate ester and / or a methacrylate ester as the main monomers). The monomers can also include other major monomers such as acrylamide and acrylonitrile, optionally with one or more monomers such as itaconic acid and ureido methacrylate. [0035] The latex polymer binder is present in water in the form of an aqueous dispersion and can include about 2 to about 85 weight percent (% wt) in solids, specifically about 5 to about 75% in weight of solids (for example, the weight percentage of the dry latex polymer based on the total weight of the aqueous latex coating composition). Latex can be present in a wide variety of particle sizes, for example, a latex particle size of about 10 to about 1,000 nanometers (nm), specifically about 50 to about 800 nm. The particle size distribution can be mono-modal or multimodal, for example, bimodal. The acetal adduct (1), specifically (1a) is present in the latex coating composition in an amount effective for its purpose, for example, film coalescence, solubilization and the like. Such amounts can be determined by a person skilled in the art and can be, for example, from about 0.1 to about 30% by weight, specifically about 1 to about 20% by weight, based on the total weight of the product. dry weight of the latex polymer binder. The balance of latex coating compositions is water and other optional additives known in the art. [0036] In a specific embodiment, acetal adducts (1), specifically (1a) are used in latex dye compositions and can reduce or replace other organic solvents in latex paint compositions. In particular, 2EH-LPK can be used with a solvent of 14/135 green coalescence in latex paint compositions, and in special paints used in architectural and light industrial applications. Thus, in one embodiment, a latex paint composition comprises a latex polymer binder, water, an acetal adduct (1), specifically (1a) and a pigment. The paint compositions can be a primer, cocoate-based, top-coat, color coat. [0037] In an alternative embodiment, acetal adducts (1), specifically (1a) are used in latex coloring compositions, latex adhesive compositions, latex sealant compositions, latex caulking compositions, latex compositions latex mastic or latex dye compositions. Thus, in another embodiment, a latex coating composition comprises at least one latex polymer binder, water, an acetal adduct (1), specifically (1a), and optionally a pigment, and that the coating composition of latex is a latex adhesive composition, latex sealant composition, latex caulking composition, latex coloring composition, latex mastic compositions or latex dye composition and the latex polymer binder is selected with respect specific function of the latex coating composition. [0038] A wide variety of latex polymer binders can be used in the preceding latex coating compositions, including those described for latex paint compositions.

The preceding polymers can also include other monomers such as acrylamide, acrylonitrile, itaconic acid and ureido methacrylate. [0039] A pigment can be present in latex coating compositions. The term pigment as used herein includes solids that do not form films, such as extenders and fillers, for example, an inorganic pigment TiO 2 (in anatase and rutile forms), clay (aluminum silicate), CaCO 3 ( in both floor and precipitate forms), aluminum oxide, silicon dioxide, magnesium oxide, talc (magnesium silicate), barites (barium sulfate), zinc oxide, zinc sulfite, sodium oxide, potassium oxide , solid organic latex particles (high Tg) added to modify the surface hardness or roughness or (as in the case of hollow latex particles) to replace TiO 2 , and a combination comprising at least one of the preceding. Representative combinations include mixtures of metal oxides such as those sold under the MINEX® brands (silicon, aluminum, sodium and potassium oxides commercially available from Unimin Specialty Minerals), CELITES® (aluminum oxide and silicon dioxide commercially available from Celite Company ), ATOMITES® (commercially available from Imerys) and ATTAGELS® (commercially available from BASF). Specifically, the pigment includes TiO 2 , CaCO 3 , or clay. [0040] Generally, the average particle sizes are from about 0.01 to about 50 micrometers. For example, the TiO 2 particles used in the aqueous coating composition generally have an average particle size of about 0.15 to about 0.40 micrometers. 16/135 The pigment can be added to the aqueous coating composition as a powder or as a mixture. [0041] Latex coating compositions may contain additional additives, as are known in the art, to modify the characteristics of latex coating compositions and provide the desired functionality, provided that the additives do not significantly adversely affect the desired properties of the composition. These additives can include a plasticizer, drying retardant, dispersant, surfactant or wetting agent, rheology modifier, foam remover, thickener, biocide, fungicide, colorant, wax, perfume, pH regulator or co-solvent. Additives are present in the amount commonly used in latex coating compositions, and specifically in latex paint compositions, latex adhesive compositions, latex sealant compositions, latex caulking compositions, latex mastic compositions and latex dye. In one embodiment, the latex coating composition essentially consists of a latex polymer binder, water, an optional pigment and an acetal adduct (1), specifically (1a). As used in this document, the phrase essentially consists of covers the latex polymer binder, water, optional pigment and acetal adduct, and optionally, one or more additives defined in this document, however, excluding additives that significantly adversely affect desired properties of the latex coating compositions or the dry coating derived therefrom. [0042] The latex polymer binder may be present in the latex composition in an amount of dry weight of about 5 to about 80% by weight, and more specifically about 8 to about 60% by weight of the composition latex coating, based on the total weight of the latex coating composition. [0043] When present, a pigment can be used in 17/135 latex coating composition in an amount of about 5 to about 75% by weight, specifically about 10 to about 55% by weight, of the total solids in the latex composition. [0044] The acetal adduct (1), specifically 1 (a), can be present in the latex coating composition in an amount of about 0.1 to about 30% by weight, about 0.5 to about from 20% by weight, about 1 to about 15% by weight, about 1 to about 10% by weight, about 1 to about 8% by weight, and more specifically about 1 to about 7% by weight, based on the dry weight of the polymer binder. [0045] Although most of the water is present in the latex dispersion and other components of the latex composition, the water can be added separately from the latex composition. Generally, the latex composition includes about 10 to about 85% by weight and more specifically about 20 to about 80% by weight of water, for example, the total solids content of the latex composition is about 15 to about 90% by weight, more specifically about 20 to about 80% by weight of the total composition. The compositions are generally formulated in such a way that the hardened (dry) coatings comprise at least about 5% by volume (% vol.) Of dry polymer solids, and, when present, about 5 to about 90% by volume of non-polymeric solids in the form of pigments. In addition to dry polymer solids and non-polymeric solids in the form of pigments, the hardened (dry) coatings may comprise an acetal adduct amount (1), specifically (1a), in an amount of about 35 vol%. after drying, and this amount decreases to essentially zero over time.

Additives include filler materials, such as talc and calcium carbonate, fungicides, biocides, foam-removing agents, anti-freeze agents, pigments and pesticides. The amounts of latex polymer binder and acetal adducts (1), specifically 1 (a) effective to form a latex caulking composition can be determined by one skilled in the art, and can be, for example, about 5 to about 80% by weight of the polymer binder solids, based on the total weight of the latex caulking composition, and about 0.1 to about 30% of the acetal adduct, more specifically between about 0.1 and about 10% (1), specifically 1 (a), based on the total weight of the latex caulking composition. [0047] In another embodiment, a latex sealant or adhesive composition comprises a latex polymer binder, water, an acetal adduct (1), specifically (1a) and an adhesive sealant or additive, for example, a pigment . The polymer binder of the sealant or adhesive can be selected from a wide variety of polymers as are known in the art or latex coating compositions, for example, those described above for latex paint compositions. Additives include filler materials, such as talc and calcium carbonate, fungicides, biocides, foam-removing agents, anti-freeze agents, tackiness agents and pesticides. The amounts of latex polymer binder and acetal adducts (1), specifically 1 (a) effective to form a latex sealing composition or adhesive composition can be determined by one skilled in the art, and can be, for example, about from 5 to about 80% by weight of the polymer binder solids, based on 19/135 in the dry weight of the caulking composition, and about 0.1 to about 30%, specifically between about 0.1 and about 10%, and more specifically about 0.1 to about 5% of the adduct of acetal (1), specifically 1 (a), based on the total weight of the sealing, mastic or adhesive composition composition. [0048] In another embodiment, a latex dye composition comprises a latex polymer binder, water, an acetal adduct (1), specifically (1a), a pigment and, optionally, a dye additive, for example, a wax. The latex polymer binder can be selected from a wide variety of polymer as known in the art of latex dye compositions, for example, those described above for latex dye compositions. Additives include greases, dyes, foam-removing agents, anti-freezing agents, surfactants and plasticizers. The amounts of latex polymer binder and acetal adducts (1), specifically 1 (a) effective to form a latex dye composition can be determined by one skilled in the art, and can be, for example, about 5 to about 80% by weight of the polymer binder solids, based on the dry weight of the dye composition, and about 0.1 to about 30% of the acetal adduct (1), specifically 1 (a), based in the total weight of the latex dye composition. [0049] In another embodiment, a water-reducible coating composition comprises a water-reducible polymer binder, water, and the acetal adduct represented by formula (1), specifically (1a). The water-reducible polymer binder can be selected from a wide variety of polymers known in the art of water-reducible coating compositions, specifically water-reducible paint compositions, and may include, for example, acrylics that are produced using techniques traditional polymerization processes in water-miscible organic solvent, polyesters, polyurethanes, 20/135 aikids, alkyds modified by silicone, epoxies, epoxy esters and alkyds. In a specific embodiment, the binder is a polyurethane, for example, an aliphatic polyurethane, an alkyd, an acrylic or combinations or hybrids thereof. The water-reducible polymer binder can be present in water composition as a true solution (for example, the volume of the solution is equal to the sum volume of the water-reducible polymer binder), an emulsion, a duplex emulsion ( for example, a water-in-oil in water (W / O / W) emulsion, a dispersion or a suspension (for example, a coarse dispersion)). The various types of polymer binders can be made reducible in water by neutralizing groups of residual free acids attached to the polymer structure with a base, for example, an organic amine, ammonium hydroxide or another base. Exemplary acrylic or alkyd binders can have acid numbers from about 20 to about 100. [0050] The polymer binder can be thermoset, in which case any curing agent used for each polymer binder will depend on the nature of the specific polymer and its curing mechanism. Thus, polyester and alkyd polymers having hydroxyl, carboxyl or amide functionality or any combination of such functionalities, crosslinking or curing can be effective by means of urea formaldehyde, melamine formaldehyde and methoxylated, ethoxylated or butoxylated forms thereof. Blocked isocyanate crosslinking agents are also known in the art. Catalysts can also be used to promote the healing reaction, such as peroxides. In addition to catalysts, promoters and activators for promoting the healing reaction can be used. [0051] Some polymer binders, for example, curable polyurethane binders, include two components: an aqueous component including a component containing active hydrogen (for example, a polyol or amino functional compound) in one part and a polyisocyanate 21/135 aqueous elsewhere. The polyol can be a water-soluble or dispersible polyol, optionally having a carboxyl group, one or amino functional hydroxyoligourethane and / or oligurethane, and the polyisocyanate can be modified with polyoxyalkylene ethyl ether to be soluble in water or dispersible in water. [0052] Epoxy binders include derivatives of diglicidyl ether / bis-phenol compounds such as bisphenol A (DGEBA), for example, polyether diepoxide derivatives that are obtained by the polymeric addition of bisphenols with the bisphenol diglycidyl ether. Epoxies can be soluble in water by reacting with phosphoric acid and then neutralizing the resulting, acidic products, ester, and reaction products that comprise glycol with a base. If the base is a fugitive base, such as ammonium or a volatile amine, the water-neutralized and neutralized polymer can be converted to a high-performance thermoset polymer, insensitive to evaporating water, heating to disrupt ammonium saline groups and expelling ammonia (or amine) and cure. Conventional curing agents capable of reacting with acidic groups and / or hydroxyl alcoholic groups can be incorporated with the uncured polymer. Epoxy binders can also be made with a surfactant to aid dispersion. In some cases, the surfactant may have reactive groups so that the surfactant is chemically incorporated into the polymer system. [0053] As indicated above, the water-reducible polymer binder can be present in completely dissolved water, for example, in the form of a solution, in the form of aggregates or an aqueous dispersion and can include about 5 to about 85% of solids, specifically about 10 to about 75% by weight of solids (e.g., the weight percentage of the polymer binder based on the total weight of the water-reducible coating composition). It is observed that the higher the concentration of the dispersed phase, the greater the viscosity. 22/135 As used in this document, solids refer to the 100% binder in any form, such as a solid or liquid. The polymer binder can be present in a wide variety of particle sizes, for example, an average polymer binder particle size of about 10 to about 1,000 nanometers (nm), specifically about 50 to about 800 nm . The particle size distribution can be mono-modal or multimodal, for example, bimodal. [0054] The acetal adduct (1), specifically (1a) is present in the water-reducible coating composition in an amount effective for its purpose, for example, film cohesion, solubilization and the like. Such amounts can be determined by a person skilled in the art and can be, for example, from about 0.1 to about 30% by weight, or about 0.5 to about 30% by weight, specifically about 1 to about 20% by weight or about 1 to about 10% by weight, each based on the total weight of the water-reducible coating compositions. The balance of water-reducible coating compositions is water, polymer binder, and other optional additives, including cosolvents known in the art. [0055] In a specific embodiment, acetal adducts (1), specifically (1a), are used in water-reducible paint compositions, coloring compositions or clear-coat compositions and can reduce or replace other organic solvents in compositions reducible in water. EtLPK in particular can be used as a green / non-toxic coaescence solvent in water-reducible paint, coloring, or clear-coat coating compositions, and in particular such compositions used in architectural and light industrial applications. Because EtLPK evaporates more slowly than water, the drying time is slower. However, the volatility of EtLPK is such that none or very little remains on the completely dry film, thereby avoiding a sticky film. 23/135 [0056] Therefore, in one embodiment, a water-reducible ink, coloring or clear-coat composition comprises a water-reducible polymer binder composition, optionally a pigment and an acetal adduct (1), specifically (1a ). A wide variety of water-reducible polymer binders can be used, including those described above. When the polymer binder is thermoset, the binder compositions comprise the uncured polymer and one or more of a curing agent, catalyst, initiator or promoter, if used. [0057] A pigment can be present in ink composition or water-reducible coloring. The term pigment as used in this document includes non-film solids, such as extenders and fillers, for example, an inorganic pigment, aluminum oxide, barites (barium sulfate), CaCO 3 (both in floor and precipitated), clay (aluminum silicate), chromium oxide, cobalt oxide, iron oxides, magnesium oxide, potassium oxide, silicon dioxide, talc (magnesium silicate), TiO 2 (both in the forms of anastase and rutile), zinc oxide, zinc sulfite, an organic pigment such as solid (high Tg) organic latex particles added to modify the hardness or (as in the case of hollow latex particles) to replace TiO 2 , carbon black and a combination comprising at least one of the preceding. Representative combinations include mixtures of metal oxides, such as those sold under the MINEX® brands (silicon, aluminum, sodium and potassium oxides commercially available from Unimin Specialty Minerals), CELITES® (aluminum oxide and silicon dioxide commercially available from Celite Company), ATOMITES® (commercially available from English China Clay International), and Attagels® (commercially available from Engelhard). Specifically, the pigment includes TiO 2 , CaCO 3 , or clay. [0058] Generally, the average particle sizes of the 24/135 pigments are from about 0.01 to about 50 micrometers. For example, the TiO 2 particles used in the aqueous coating composition generally have an average particle size of about 0.15 to about 0.40 micrometers. The pigment can be added to the aqueous coating composition as a powder or as a mixture. [0059] A dye may be present in an ink composition or water-reducible coloring, in addition to or instead of a pigment. The term dye as used in this document includes organic compounds generally soluble in the compositions, which impart color to the compositions. [0060] The water-reducible ink, coloring or clear-coat composition may contain additional additives, as are known in the art, to modify the characteristics of the water-reducible composition, provided that the additives do not significantly adversely affect the desired properties of the paint, coloring or clear-coat, for example, viscosity, drying time or other characteristic. These additives can include a plasticizer, drying retardant, dispersant, surfactant or wetting agent, rheology modifier, foam remover, thickener, biocide, fungicide, colorant, wax, perfume, pH regulator or co-solvent. Additives are present in the amount commonly used in water-reducible ink, coloring or clear-coat compositions. In one embodiment, the water-reducible ink, coloring or clearcoat composition essentially consists of a water-reducible polymer binder, an optional pigment, an optional dye and an acetal adduct (1). As used in this document, the phrase essentially consists of encompassing the polymer binder reducible in water, water, optional pigment and acetal adduct, and optionally, one or more additives defined in this document, however, excluding additives that significantly adversely affect the desired properties of the water-reducible compositions or the 25/135 dry coating derived from this. [0061] The water-reducible polymer binder can be present in the water-reducible ink composition in an amount of about 2 to about 60% by weight, and more specifically about 4 to about 40% by weight of the composition of water-reducible ink, based on the dry weight of the water-reducible polymer binder. [0062] When present, the pigment can be used in water-reducible ink composition in an amount of about 2 to about 50% by weight, specifically about 5 to about 40% by weight of the total solids in the composition water-reducible ink. [0063] The water-reducible polymer binder can be present in the water-reducible chlorination composition in an amount of about 0.1 to about 50% by weight, and more specifically about 0.5 to about 30% by weight of the water-reducible paint composition, based on the dry weight of the water-reducible polymer binder. [0064] When present, the pigment or dye can be used in a water-reducible coloring composition in an amount of about 0.1 to about 40% by weight, specifically about 0.5 to about 30% by weight of total solids in the water-reducible coloring composition. [0065] When present, the coloring can be used in ink composition or water-reducible coloring in an amount of about 0.001 to about 10% by weight, specifically about 0.005 to about 5% by weight of the total solids in the composition of ink or water-reducible coloring. [0066] The acetal adduct (1), specifically 1 (a), more specifically 1 (b), can be present in an amount of about 0.1 to about 30% by weight, specifically about 1 to about 10% by weight, more specifically about 1 to about 8% by weight, and even more specifically about 1 to about 7% by weight based on weight 26/135 dry of the polymer binder. [0067] The water-reducible ink composition can include about 5 to about 85% by weight and more specifically about 35 to about 80% by weight of water, for example, the total solids content of the ink composition water-reducible can be from about 15 to about 95% by weight, more specifically about 20 to about 65% by weight of the total composition. The compositions can be formulated in such a way that the hardened (dry) coatings comprise at least about 2 to about 98% by volume (% vol.) Of polymer solids and, if present, the acetal adduct (1), specifically (1a), and about 2 to about 98% vol. of non-polymeric solids in the form of pigments or a combination of a pigment and a dye, together with other additives (if present). [0068] The water-reducible coloring composition can include about 10 to about 95% by weight and more specifically about 25 to about 90% by weight of water, for example, the total solids content of the coloring composition water-reducible can be from about 5 to about 75% by weight, more specifically about 10 to about 75% by weight of the total composition. The coloring compositions are generally formulated in such a way that the hardened (dry) coatings comprise at least about 1% by volume, for example, about 5 to about 98% by volume of polymer solids, if present, the acetal (1), specifically (1a) and about 0.1 to about 99% by volume of non-polymeric solids in the form of pigments and / or dyes, and other additives (if present). A wood-colored coating can penetrate the wood substrate to some degree. [0069] The water-reducible coating composition can include about 10 to about 95% by weight and more specifically about 25 to about 90% by weight of water, for example, the total solids content of the coating composition reducible in water can be about 5 to 27/135 about 75% by weight, more specifically about 10 to about 75% by weight of the total composition. The compositions are generally formulated in such a way that the hardened (dry) coatings comprise about 1% by volume of polymer solids, for example, about 1 to about 100% by volume of polymer solids, if present, the acetal (1), specifically (1a) and 0 to about 10% by volume of non-polymeric solids. For example, in clear-coat compositions certain additives (for example, calcium carbonate, talc or silica) can be used that do not transmit color, on the contrary, they serve primarily to reduce cost, modify gloss levels or the like. [0070] A method for preparing any of the preceding waterborne coating compositions comprises the combination of water, the polymer binder, the acetal adduct (1), specifically (1a) and any optional additives, for example, a pigment to form water-borne coating compositions. The components can be combined in any suitable order. [0071] For example, a method for preparing a latex coating composition comprises the combination of aqueous latex polymer binder emulsion, acetal adducts (1), specifically (1a), and any optional additives, for example, a pigment to form a latex coating composition. The acetal adducts and additives can be added in any order suitable for the polymer latex, the additives or combinations thereof, to provide these additives in aqueous coating composition. In the case of latex paint compositions, the aqueous coating composition has a pH of about 7 to about 10. Alternatively, the acetal adducts (1), specifically (1a), may be present during the polymerization of the latex polymer. A method for preparing a latex paint composition comprises combining the aqueous dispersion of the Binder 28/135 latex polymer, the acetal adducts (1), specifically (1a), the pigment and any optional additives to form the latex paint composition. [0072] In another embodiment, a method of preparing a water-reducible coating or paint composition, coloring or clear-coating coating comprises combining the polymeric binder, the acetal adducts (1), such as, for example, (1a) , aqueous phase (e.g., water and any cosolvents if present), and any additives, if present, to form a water-reducible coating composition. Components can be added in any order to provide the water-reducible coating composition. The polymer binder can be combined with an acetal adduct after the polymer binder synthesis is complete. Thus, the acetal adduct can be added to the polymer binder or water before the binder is combined with water to form the coating composition. Adding the acetal adduct to the polymer for the polymer binder before adding the composition in water can improve processing due to a decrease in the viscosity of the polymer / acetal combination. Alternatively, the acetal adduct can be admixed after the binder is combined with water. Where the binder is neutralized, the acetal adduct can be combined with the binder before neutralization or after neutralization. For example, the acetal adduct and polymer binder can be combined after the binder is neutralized, to avoid the side reaction of the acetal adduct and the base used for neutralization. In the case of water-reducible ink compositions, the aqueous coating composition has a pH of about 5 to about 8.5. [0073] In another embodiment, the water-reducible coating composition components, for example, a paint, coloring or clear-coat composition, are provided in two parts that are immediately combined before use. For example, a first part 29/135 of a water-reducible coating composition includes an epoxy dispersion and a second part includes an amine crosslinker. The parts are mixed at a predetermined ratio to provide the epoxy system. Acetal esters and other additives are generally present in the epoxy dispersion. Similarly, a first part of the water-reducible alkyd composition includes an alkyd binder and a second part includes a melamine crosslinker. A first part of the water-reducible polyurethane coating composition includes hydroxyl functional polyurethane dispersion and a second part includes an isocyanate prepolymer. The parts are mixed at a predetermined ratio to provide the polyurethane system. Acetal esters and other additives are generally present in the polyurethane dispersion. [0074] A method of use, that is, coating a substrate with a waterborne coating composition is also described. The substrate can be a wide variety of materials, such as paper, wood, concrete, metal, glass, ceramics, plastics, plaster, ceiling substrates such as asphalt coatings, ceiling felts, foam polyurethane insulation, roofing membranes of polymers and masonry substrates such as brick, concrete block and cement layers, including external building cladding systems such as EIFS (External Insulation Finishing Systems). Substrates include painted, primed, coated, worn or weathered substrates. The method comprises contacting a substrate surface with a water-borne coating composition to form a film and drying the film to harden it. The water-borne coating composition can be applied to materials by a variety of techniques well known in the art such as curtain, sponge, brush, roller, broom, air-assisted or airless spray, electrostatic spray and the like. In a 30/135 modality, the ink composition does not significantly penetrate or impregnate the substrate. In one embodiment, the clear-coat composition does not significantly penetrate or impregnate the substrate. Stains are generally made to partially or completely impregnate the substrate after coating. In one embodiment, the substrate is completely impregnated by a coloring composition, so that the formed film fits inside the coated substrate and can be continuous or discontinuous. [0075] Hardening occurs through loss of water and solvent, by evaporation under atmospheric conditions at room temperature or with heating to assist in the drying rate. Curing can be carried out before drying, during drying or after drying or any combination thereof. Chemical curing through a crosslinking agent or an oxidative process can take place after the film is significantly cured by solvent evaporation mechanism. [0076] According to another embodiment, a substrate coated with a dry coating is provided, characterized by the fact that the coating comprises the polymer binder in the form of a film. Some amount of acetal adduct (1), specifically (1a) may be present. In one embodiment, the acetal adduct can be chemically combined with the polymer binder. For example, acetal adducts (1), specifically (1a), can be present in the coating in an amount of about 1 per million by weight (ppm) to about 15% by weight, specifically about 0.1 to about 15% by weight, each based on the total weight of the dry coating. For example, where the acetal adduct performs a plasticizer function, the adduct can be present in larger amounts, for example, about 0.25 to about 15% by weight, based on the total weight of the dry coating. [0077] The dry coating is arranged on a surface of the 31/135 substrate, in the form of a film that can partially or completely cover the surface. The coating may be disposed directly on the surface, or one or more intermediate layers (for example, a primer) may be present between the coating and the surface of the substrate. In a further embodiment, the dry coating can be a dry paint coating that comprises the polymer binder in the form of a film. The dry paint coating additionally contains one or more additional additives as discussed above, for example, a pigment. The dry coating or dry paint coating can be significantly free of one or more of water, other coalescing agents or other organic solvent. In addition, or alternatively, as described above, the coating can be partially or completely impregnated within the substrate and adapt to the internal surfaces of the substrate. In these embodiments, the acetal adducts (1), specifically (1a), can be present in the coating in an amount of about 1 part per million by weight in about 15% by weight, specifically about 0.1 to about 15% by weight, each based on the total weight of the dry coating. Again, where the acetal adduct performs a plasticizer function, the adduct can be present in larger amounts, for example, about 0.25 to about 15% by weight, based on the total weight of the dry coating. If any of the foregoing modalities, it is also possible to dry the coating and / or substrate sufficiently to remove the acetal adducts (1), specifically (1a) below the detectable limits on the films. [0078] The water-borne coating composition exhibits comparable or improved coalescence compared to similar compositions that do not have acetal adducts (1), specifically (1a). [0079] The waterborne coating composition has a minimum and low temperature of film formation (MFFT). 32/135 Specifically, the acetal adducts of formula 1, specifically of formula (1a), lower the minimum film formation temperature to below about 10 ° C (50 ° F), specifically, to below about 5 ° C ( 41 ° F) as measured using ASTM Method D2354. The minimum temperature of film formation is an indicator of coalescence efficiency. The minimum film-forming temperature is the minimum temperature at which water-borne synthetic latex will coalesce when applied to a substrate such as a thin film. At a temperature lower than the minimum film-forming temperature, a powdery cracked layer will form instead of a film. [0080] Additionally, the water-borne coating composition provides a coating of commercially acceptable properties, while significantly reducing or eliminating the need for VOCs within the coating composition. The water-borne coating composition, in particular the latex paint composition, advantageously comprises less than about 250 g / l of VOCs, and most advantageously does not comprise significant VOCs content. As such, the latex paint composition can be produced that has lower VOC levels than conventional latex paint compositions and is more environmentally desirable than conventional coatings. In one embodiment, the waterborne coating composition, especially the latex paint composition, has a VOC content of less than about 150 g / l, less than about 100 g / l, less than about 50 g / l, or still significantly zero, for example, less than about 10 g / l, as determined using the ASTM D3960 Method. Alternatively, a component of a composition can be defined as being a VOC if its initial boiling point is less than or equal to about 250 ° C, measured at a standard pressure of 101.3 kPa according to EU Directive 2004 / 442 / EC. The VOC content of a coating composition is the 33/135 mass of VOC compounds, expressed in g / l in the composition in its ready-to-use condition and can be measured by ISO 11890-2. [0081] Although Method ASTM D3960 is applicable to determine the VOC content expressed as the mass of VOC per volume of coating unit, Method ASTM D2369 is used to obtain a weight percentage of non-volatile matter by difference to determine volatiles emitted by coatings. In one embodiment, the acetal adduct of formula (1a) used in the latex paint composition retains more than about 50% by weight, specifically greater than about 55% by weight, and more specifically greater than about 60% by weight of the acetal adduct based on an initial amount of acetal adduct as determined by Method ASTM D2369. This indicates that a water-borne composition comprising an acetal adduct of formula (1a) according to the coalescing solvent has an extremely low contribution of VOC content due to the coalescing solvent [0082] Furthermore, the water-borne composition, for example, paint compositions such as latex paint composition has improved hydrolytic stability. Water-borne compositions, for example, ink compositions are usually stored at a relatively high alkaline pH, for example, at a pH of about 7.5 to about 10. In highly alkaline environments, hydrolysis of esters can occur in a significant rate and the coalescence efficiency of an ester functionalized coalescence solvent decreases. Without being bound by theory, it is believed that ester hydrolysis produces carboxylic acids that lower the pH of paint compositions, specifically latex paint compositions. In one embodiment, waterborne compositions, for example, latex paint compositions comprising an acetal (1), specifically adduct (1a), can maintain a pH for more than 1 week, specifically for more than 2 weeks, and more specifically more than about 4 weeks in 34/135 of a range of about 7.5 to about 10, or about 7.5 to about 9.0 or about 8.5 to about 9.5 or about 8.5 to about 9.5 at a temperature of 10 ° C to 25 ° C. In another embodiment, waterborne compositions, for example, ink compositions such as latex ink compositions comprising a ketal (1), specifically adduct (1a), can maintain a stable initial pH that is in the range of about 7, 5 to about 10, or about 7.5 to about 9.0, or about 8.5 to about 9.5, specifically about 9.0, for more than about 1 week, specifically more than about 2 weeks, and more specifically more than about 4 weeks at a temperature of 10 ° C to 25 ° C. For example, the initial pH of waterborne compositions, for example, latex paint compositions comprising an acetal (1), specifically adduct (1a), ranges from less than 0.5 pH units at 23 ° C, specifically less than 0.2 pH units at 23 ° C pH, above about 1 week, above about 2 weeks, or above about four weeks, or even more at a temperature of 10 ° C to 25 ° C . [0083] In addition, water-borne coating compositions, specifically paint compositions can have very good overall performance, in particular one or more of viscosity, drying times, drop resistance, flow and leveling, hardness, specular gloss , dry film adhesion, impact flexibility, dilute alkaline resistance, water resistance, stain resistance, solvent resistance, resistance to hydraulic fluid, resistance to weather conditions and good heat storage stability. [0084] In a specific embodiment, a latex paint composition comprises an acrylic vinyl emulsion, water, pigment and 2EH-LPK. Acrylic vinyl emulsions are especially suitable for indoor and outdoor architectural coatings. The composition can exhibit excellent pigment binding, scouring resistance, resistance to 35/135 coloring, external durability, resistance to scale and resistance to grain breakage. The composition can also have good gloss and gloss as well as excellent thickening performance. In addition, the composition may show low contribution to VOC content, high hydrolytic stability at a high level of alkaline pH and low minimum temperature of film formation. [0085] In a specific embodiment, a latex paint composition comprises an acrylic vinyl emulsion, water, pigment and 2EH-LPK. Acrylic emulsions are especially suitable for wall paints and paints with internal / external architectural finishes. The composition can exhibit excellent moisture and dry adhesion on a chalky surface and aged alkyd substrates, resistance to blistering, resistance to grain breakage and shade retention. The composition can have excellent exterior durability and very good flowering and alkaline resistance. In addition, the composition has excellent resistance to loss of gloss, corrosion, fading, chalk, chemicals and solvents. In addition, the composition shows no significant contribution to the VOC content, high hydrolytic stability at a high level of alkaline pH and low minimum temperature of film formation. [0086] The inventors also found that acetal adducts of long chain esters that ketocarbon (1) offer a combination of properties that make them useful in a wide variety of cleaning compositions. In particular, ketal adducts (1) have low volatility. Under normal conditions of manufacture, storage and use, they are not reactive with many of the other materials that are usually found in personal care or cleaning formulas. Another advantage is that ketal adducts (1) are stable under basic conditions. In addition, certain ketal adducts (1) can be derived from biological raw materials. [0087] Exemplary cleaning compositions include, but are not 36/135 are limited to laundry detergents, washing machine cleaning formula, hard surface cleaners, soft surface cleaners, glass cleaner compositions and stove cleaners. Exemplary cleaning compositions also include removal compositions such as paint removal formulas, graphite removal, dye cleaning and removal, adhesive removal, mastic removal, photoresist removal, wax removal, asphalt removal, concrete cleaning , shape cleaning, mold cleaning, hand cleaning, body cleaning, sap / tar removal, oil paint cleaning and removal, parts grease removal and engine grease removal. The acetal adducts of formula (1), specifically (1a) have an excellent combination of properties for use in these applications, including solubilization activity, low flammability, long working times, biodegradability, without corrosivity and low odor. The cleaning compositions can be in the form of a solid, a gel, a liquid, an emulsion. A single composition can have more than one in use, for example, a single composition can be used both as a paint and dye remover, as a paint, oil or grease remover. [0088] And one embodiment, the cleaning compositions contain only acetal adducts of the formula (1), specifically (1a), and 0 to 1% by weight of water, based on the total weight of the removal compositions. Such cleaning compositions can be removal compositions, for example, an paint remover, graphite remover, dye remover, adhesive remover, mastic remover, photoresist remover, wax remover, asphalt remover, concrete cleaner, cleaner shape, sap remover, oil remover or grease remover. [0089] In another embodiment, the cleaning compositions comprise the acetal adducts of the formula (1), specifically (1a); 0 to 1% by weight of water, based on the total weight of the 37/135 removal; and one or more additional components, for example, a cosolvent and / or other components such as a plurality of abrasive particles, an organic amine, antioxidant, biocide, colorant, corrosion inhibitor, foam remover, dye, enzyme, light stabilizer, odor masking agent, plasticizer, preservative, rust inhibitor, surfactant, thickener or a combination comprising at least one of the foregoing. [0090] In yet another embodiment, the cleaning compositions comprise 20 to 99% by weight, water, 0.1 to 40% by weight, the acetal adducts of formula (1), specifically (1a) and 0 , 1 to 20% by weight of at least one surfactant. In yet another embodiment, the cleaning compositions comprise from 20 to 99% by weight, of water, from 0.1 to 40% by weight of acetal adducts of formula (1), specifically (1a) and from 0.1 to 45 % by weight of at least one surfactant and one or more additional components, for example, a cosolvent and / or other components such as a plurality of abrasive particles, an organic amine, antioxidant, biocide, colorant, corrosion inhibitor, foam remover , dye, enzyme, light stabilizer, odor masking agent, plasticizer, preservative, rust inhibitor, surfactant, thickener, soil suspending agent, building or chelating agent, bleach, bleach activator, bleach stabilizer and control agent pH, hydrotope and tissue softening ingredient. [0091] Exemplary co-solvents include: aliphatic hydrocarbons, for example straight chain, branched, cyclic or aliphatic C6-30 hydrocarbons, which are specifically liquid at room temperatures and which have a boiling point of at least about 100 ° C, for example mineral oil (also called liquid petrolatum or liquid paraffin), mineral spirits (also called ligroin or petroleum spirits), and dot cuts 38/135 low glow distillate o and niorocarbon (for example, Conosol® ΟΙ 45 (mainly C10-13 cycloparaffinic and isoparaffinic hydrocarbons), Conosol® C-170 (composed mainly of C10-15 cycloparaffinic and isoparaffinic hydrocarbons), Conosol® C-200 (composed mainly of C12-16 and isoparaffinic cycloparaffinic hydrocarbons) and Conosol® 215 (composed mainly of C12-15 and isoparaffinic cycloparaffinic hydrocarbons) from Calumet Specialty partners);

A combination comprising one or more of the aforementioned cosolvents can be used. [0092] In one embodiment, the cosolvent is NMP. [0093] The ratio between ketal adducts of formula (1), specifically (1a) and the cosolvent can vary widely depending on the ketal adducts of formula (1), the cosolvent and the intended use and can be 1:99 42/135 to 99: 1, specifically from 10:90 to 90:10, more specifically from 20:80 to 80:20, from 30:70 to 70:30 or from 40:60 to 60:40, all in volume . [0094] It is understood that a single additive may have more than one function and that the characterization of an additive as having that function (for example, as a cosolvent) does not exclude the additive from performing another function. The concentrations of the individual additives in the cleaning compositions may vary depending on the components of the cleaning composition, the type of material to be removed and the rate at which the material removal is to be carried out. Optimal concentrations for a specific application can easily be determined by one skilled in the art using standard experimental methods and the guidelines set out below. [0095] Organic amine accelerators may include those listed above as cosolvents. Accelerators are believed to enhance the performance of the composition by chemically attacking the organic binder of a coating and thereby weakening the adhesion and cohesion of the coating. Exemplary amine accelerators include ethanolamine, diethanolamine, ethylene diaminetetraacetic acid, morpholine, triethanolamine, triethylamine and 2- (N, N'-diethylamine) ethanol). When used as an additive, the amine accelerator can be present in an amount of 0.1 to 20% by weight or from 1 to 10% by weight, although these amounts are merely illustrative. [0096] Exemplary organic acid accelerators include carboxylic acids 01-22 (eg, formic acid, acetic acid, propionic acid, oleic acid, oxalic acid and hydroxyacetic acid). When used as an additive, the organic acid accelerator can be present in an amount of 0.1 to 20% by weight or from 1 to 10% by weight, although these amounts are merely illustrative. [0097] Corrosion inhibitors may be present, particularly, where the composition is supplied in a metal container or when an acid accelerator is present. Inhibitors of 43/135 corrosion can be, for example, a molecule that has an oil-soluble part and a water-soluble part, such as an amphoteric surfactant that contains an amine functionality in an amount of about 0.05% to about 2 % by weight, specifically about 0.25% to about 1.0%, as disodium N-lauryl immunodipropionate esters available as DERIPHAT® amphoteric surfactants from Cognis Corporation. Other corrosion inhibitors include fatty acid amine soaps and fatty alkanolamides, such as C 8 to C 18 fatty alkanolamides, examples of which include STAND AMID® alkanolamides available from Cognis Corporation. These corrosion inhibitors can also be used for anti-corrosion effects after application on surfaces that will rust or corrode due to the presence of water in the cleaning compositions, such as metallic surfaces, such as iron, steel and the like. [0098] Cleaning compositions may also contain an effective amount of odor-masking agents, such as essential oils, aromatic chemicals, perfumes and the like, for example, gray amber, borneol and its esters, carvone, castoro, algalde, cinnamaldehyde , citrus, clove oil, galbanum, jasmine, limonene, linalool and its esters, pinenes (alphas, betas, etc.), rosemary oil, sandalwood, terpineols, terpinenes and the like, benzaldehyde, benzoin, isoamyl acetate (banana); isobutyl propionate (rum); methyl anthranilate (grape); benzyl acetate (peach), dipentene, methyl butyrate (apple); ethyl butyrate (pineapple); octyl acetate (orange); n-propyl acetate (pear); phenylethyl acetate (honey) and the like. An effective amount of such odor-masking agents will be readily determinable by those skilled in the art, for example, from about 0.25% to about 2.50% by weight, the removal composition specifically about 0.4% to about 1.0%. Exemplary plasticizers include phthalate esters, for example, dibutyl phthalate, diethylhexyl phthalate and diethyl phthalate; aliphatic diesters, for example dioctyl adipate; terephthalate esters, for 44/135 example, dioctyl terephthalate; citrate esters, for example, triethyl acetyl citrate and tri-n-butyl acetyl citrate; plasticizers based on ketal such as those described in PCT Application WO 2010/151558 or a combination comprising at least one of the aforementioned items. When used, the plasticizer is present in an amount of about 0.1 to about 10% by weight based on the total weight of the removal composition. [0100] A wide variety of surfactants can be used, depending on the application, and they can be amphoteric, anionic, cationic, non-ionic or zwitterionic. A surfactant or a combination of surfactants may be present in order to improve the wetting of the dirt or coating to be removed and to accelerate the penetration of the active components. In addition, a surfactant can facilitate washing with water and cleaning the substrate with water after removing dirt or coating. Exemplary amphoteric surfactants include amine oxide compounds with the formula RR'RN—> 0 where each R, R 'and R is independently an alkyl, aryl or arylalkyl group (C-iC24) which can optionally contain one or more heteroatoms P , O, S or N. Exemplary amphoteric surfactants also include betaine compounds of the formula ΡΡΉΝ + (ΟΗ 2 ) η Ο (Ο) Ο where each R, R 'and R is independently an alkyl, aryl or arylalkyl group 0) - 024) which can optionally contain one or more heteroatoms P, O, S or N and n is about 1 to 10. A combination comprising at least one of the above items can be used. [0101] Exemplary anionic surfactants include water-soluble salts of alkylbenzene sulfonates as the isopropylamine salt of a C 10 -4 alkyl alkyl sulfonic acid and / or a Ce-14 fatty alcohol sulfate> alkyl sulfates, sulfates of polyethylene alkyl ether, paraffin sulfonates, alpha-olefin sulfonates and sulfosuccinates, alpha-olefin sulfocarboxylates and their esters, alkyl glyceryl ether sulphonates, fatty acid monoglyceride sulphates, polyethoxy ether alkyl sulphates, salts 45/135 water soluble or esters of alpha-suifonated fatty acids that contain about 6 to 20 carbon atoms in the fatty acid group and about 1 to 10 carbon atoms in the ester group and the like. When present, the anionic surfactant may be present in the composition in an amount of about 0.1 to about 15% by weight, from about 3 to 12% by weight and more specifically from about 5 to about 10% by weight weight based on the weight of the composition. A combination comprising at least one of the previous items can be used. [0102] In addition, instead of an anionic surfactant, a short chain surfactant may be present, for example, alcohols, glycols and ethers of C 3 -C 6 glycol such as propylene glycol n-butyl ether, pyrrolidones, esters of glycolic ether and the like. A combination comprising at least one of the previous items can be used. [0103] Exemplary cationic surfactants include quaternary amine compounds with the formula RR'RR'N + X where R, R ', R and R' are independently a C-1-C24 alkyl, aryl or arylalkyl group) that may contain , optionally, one or more heteroatoms P, O, S or N, and X is F, Cl, Br, I or an alkyl sulfate. A combination comprising at least one of the previous items can be used. [0104] Exemplary non-ionic surfactants include alcohol ethoxylates (eg C 6 -C 24 or C 6 -C 16 alcohol ethoxylates) having 1 to about 20 ethylene oxide groups (for example, about 9 to about 20 ethylene oxide groups), alkylphenol ethoxylates (eg, C 6 -C 24 or C 8 -C 10 alkylphenol ethoxylates) with 1 to about 100 ethylene oxide groups (for example, about 12 to about 20 ethylene oxide groups), alkyl polyglycosides (for example, C 6 -C 24 alkyl or C 6 -C 20 alkyl polyglycosides ) with 1 to about 20 glycoside groups (for example, about 9 to about glycoside groups). A combination comprising at least one of the previous items can be used. 46/135 [0105] As a general guide, the amount of surfactant can be about 0.1 to about 20%, about 0.1 to about 15% or about 2 to about 15% of the total weight of the composition cleaning. [0106] In one embodiment, the disclosure includes a composition comprising a surfactant described above and the ketal adducts of formula (1), specifically (1a). In these modalities, the ratio between the surfactant and the ketal adducts of formula (1), specifically (1a), can vary from 50: 1 to 1:50, preferably 20: 1 to 1:10. These compositions can be prepared as intermediates for use in final formulations, such as for cleaning products. [0107] Thickeners may be present to adjust the rheological properties of the cleaning compositions. For example, the removal of partially dry paint from automotive paint booths is usually accomplished by spraying a cleaning composition as a paint remover in the paint booth. The coating remover should be thin enough to spray easily, but it should quickly build up in viscosity in low-shear conditions to effectively adhere to vertical surfaces. A higher viscosity formulation is generally desired if the coating remover is painted while a low viscosity formulation that does not contain any added thickeners can be used where the coated substrate is soaked in a tank. Thickeners can also serve to increase the effectiveness of coating removers by decreasing the rate of evaporation of volatile components after application to a coated substrate. The use of a thickener in the composition allows the composition to be applied to vertical surfaces without any dripping or inherent flow and also inhibits the dissipation of the composition on porous substrates such as brick or concrete. 47/135 [0108] Exemplary thickeners are natural or synthetic clays including bentonite, hectorite, smectite and other silicates such as available grades of BENTOLITE ™, CLAYTONE ™ and GELWHITE ™ bentonites, PERMON ™ smectites, CLOISITE ™ magnesium aluminum silicates, LAPONITE ™ silicates and GARAMITE ™ silicates (all available from Southern Clay Products, Inc.) and available grades of OPTIGEL ™ bentonites, hectorites, smectites and other clays (all from the Sued Chemie Group); stearates of clay compounds such as tetraalkyl ammonium bentonite; gums and other polysaccharides such as carrageenan gum (eg, GENUVISCO ™ X-906-02 (from CP Kelco)), cassia gum, diutane gum (eg, GEOVIS ™ XT, KELCO-CRETE ™ 80, KELCOCRETE 200 and KOC617 (all from CP Kelco)), gelano (for example, KELCOGEL ™, KELCOGEL F and KELCOGEL LT 100 (all from CP Kelco)), guar gum, arabic gum, tragacanth gum, locust bean gum, whelan gum and xanthan gum (by example, KELZAN ™, KELZAN AR, KELZAN ASX, KELZAN ASX T, KELZAN CC, KELZAN HP, KELZAN RD, KELZAN S, KELZAN ST, KELZAN T, KELTROL ™, KELTROL T and KELTROL TF (all from CP Kelco) and VANZAN ™ and VANZAN D (both from RT Vanderbilt co.)); hydrocolloids such as NOVEGUM ™ C865, NOVEGUM C866 and NOVEGUM G888 (all from Noveon, Inc); alginates such as agar; cellulose ethers such as ethylcellulose, hydroxyethylcellulose, hydroxyethyl ethylcellulose, methylcellulose, hydroxypropylcellulose, hydroxypropylmethylcellulose and other commercially available alkyl or hydroxyalkyl cellulose ethers, for example, as METHOCEL ™ K15MDGSE, METHOCEL K4MELGH, METHOCEL K4MELG from Dow), cellulose ether XDS 8898.5 (from Dow) and KLUCEL ™ H, KLUCEL M or KLUCEL G (all from Ashland Inc.); acrylic acid homopolymers or copolymers, for example, those that can be neutralized with a salt that includes associative or non-associative thickeners such as acrylate polymers ACUSOL ™ 801s, ACUSOL 810, ACUSOL 810A, ACUSOL 820, ACUSOL 48/135 823 and ACUSOL 830 (all from Rohm & Haas Co.) or those that can be cross-linked (for example, with a polyalkenyl polyether) including CARBOPOL ™ 674, CARBOPOL 676, CARBOPOL ETD 2691, CARBOPOL ETD 2623, CARBOPOL EZ-3, CARBOPOL EZ-3A, CARBOPOL EZ-4 and CARBOPOL ULTREZ ™ 21 (all from Noveon, Inc); PEMULEN ™ 1622 copolymer (from Noveon, Inc); polyethylene oxides (for example, high molecular weight polyethylene oxides) such as polyethylene glycols and methoxypolyethylene glycols; polyvinyl alcohols; polyvinylpyrrolidone; starches; polyurethanes including RHEOLATE ™ 266 (from Elementis Specialties, Inc.) and available grades of OPTIFLO ™ associative thickeners (all available from Sud-Chemie Group); and methyl vinyl ether / maleic anhydride copolymers. Other possible thickeners include hydrophobic modified ethoxy urethane thickeners (HEUR), hydrophobic modified alkaline soluble emulsion thickeners (HASE), hydrophobic modified hydroxyethylcellulose thickeners (HMHEC) and HEUR-ASE thickeners combined. A combination comprising at least one of the previous items can be used. [0109] The thickener can be used in an amount of about 0.1 to about 30% by weight, specifically from about 2 to about 20% by weight and more specifically from about 3 to about 10% by weight. weight based on the total weight of the cleaning composition.

[0111] The cleaning composition may contain a bleach such as sodium hypochlorite, sodium perborate, diperoxidodecanedioic acid, sodium dichloroisocyanurate, m-chloroperoxybenzoic acid and peroxide-based bleaches. An advantage of this disclosure is that alkyl ketal esters are stable in bleach solutions and, thus, can add good solvency to oily dirt in a bleach containing composition. A bleach-containing composition of the disclosure can also contain one or more bleach activators such as tetra acetyl ethylene diamine and sodium nonanoyloxybenzene sulfonate. [0112] The cleaning composition may also contain one or more agents that suspend subject such as sodium carboxymethyl cellulose; one or more bleach stabilizers such as sodium diethylenetriamine-pentamethylenophosphonate and sodium diethyl enetriaminopentaacetate; one or more hydrotropes such as sodium toluene sulfonate, cumene sodium sulfonate and potassium xylene sulfonate; one or more fabric softening ingredients such as smectite clay and tallow-dimethyl-ammonium chloride.

Any or all of the optional components can be omitted in any specific liquid clothing formulation. [0116] Here are some liquid formulations for exemplary clothing in accordance with the disclosure. The percentages indicated are percentages by weight based on the total weight of the formulation. The function of these ketal adducts of formula (1), specifically (1a), in liquid laundry formulations is similar to those described above with respect to the hard surface cleaners set out below.

[0118] In another specific embodiment, the cleaning composition is a hard surface cleaner with a general formulation known in the art and which can be formulated for industrial, institutional, office or domestic use. It can be formulated as, for example, general purpose hard surface cleaners, bathroom cleaners, disinfectant shower / bath / tile cleaners, soap foam removers, mold removers, glass / mirror cleaners or stain removers.

The components b) and d) -p) described above can be present in any combination of two or more. Any or all of the components e) - n) can be omitted in any particular hard surface cleaner formulation. Component d) is typically present in a spray cleaner formulation. It has been noted earlier that in some cases, a single material can perform several functions in a hard cleaner formulation. Component j) is often present to provide pH 3.5 or higher, specifically 6 to 10. [0121] A method of preparing a cleaning composition comprises a combination of the ketal adducts of formula (1), specifically (1a), and any cosolvent or other component to form the cleaning composition. The order of addition is not particularly limited. The ketal adducts of formula (1), specifically (1a), and additives 55/135 can be added in any order appropriate to the additional components present in the composition to provide the cleaning composition. [0122] When used with cosolvents or other components, cleaning compositions can be supplied as a concentrate. Concentrates are generally diluted with water for use as a functional water-based cleaning composition. In one embodiment, a two-part concentrate package can be provided, which normally comprises Part A and Part B, where each part contains a component susceptible to react with the other part, for example, the ketal and a amine in Part A and an inorganic base in Part B. [0123] The cleaning compositions can alternatively be formulated in other forms useful for removal or cleaning compositions, for example, gels, wipes, aerosols and the like. Removal compositions can be formulated as a gel by adding an effective amount of a gelling agent such as pyrogenic silica, organic gums, polymers, copolymers, paraffin wax, bentonite clay and commercially available cellulose ethers such as methylcellulose and hydroxypropylmethylcellulose such as METHOCEL® cellulose ethers, from Dow Chemical. The wipes are usually a piece of natural or synthetic fabric impregnated with the liquid or gel removal composition. When used as an aerosol, cleaning formulations are formulated under pressure with a propellant known in the art. [0124] A cleaning method, for example, that removes a material such as a coating, dirt and / or stain from a substrate comprises contacting the material with a composition comprising ketal adducts of formula (1), specifically (1a) , under conditions that effect removal, for example, for an effective time to dissolve and / or lift the material; and separating the dissolved and / or lifted material from the substrate. As used in this document, the term dissolved includes the 56/135 partial dissolution of a material, often referred to as softening, so that the material can still be removed from the substrate by washing or mechanical action. Of course, the cleaning composition can also be at least partially removed by separating the material. [0125] Cleaning compositions can be used to remove a wide variety of materials, usually those that are soluble or can be softened by organic solvents. Examples include materials such as dirt, stains, grease, dyes for all types of substrates, including paper, wood, plastic, metal, textiles, ceramics, stone, leather and for indoor or outdoor use; adhesives and sealants, for example, silicone, polyurethane, epoxy, polyvinyl acetate (including copolymers with ethylene), phenolic, amino resin, cyan acrylate, polyester, polyamide, rubber (styrene-butadiene and natural) or acrylic adhesives and sealants; mastics; photoresist; waxes, for example, floor wax, car wax or beeswax; asphalts; juices (those used in this document include tar, pitch, tar and natural resins such as tree sap); residual materials left in forms or molds, for example, polymers such as alkyds, polyacetals, polyacrylates, polyacrylics, polyamides, polycarbonates, polyesters, polyethers, polyethylenes, polyamides, polystyrenes, polyurethanes, polyvinyls, silicones, natural and synthetic rubbers and the like and additives polymer; greases, for example, silicone and petroleum-based greases; oils, including machine oil; and paints, finishes and other coatings, for example, alkyd enamels, acrylic enamels, polyesters, polyurethanes, epoxy resin coatings, latex paints, oil based paints, shellac, phenolic coatings, gum varnishes, silicone coatings, polyvinyls, polyvinyl cinnamates, polyamides, polyimides, polyalkyl acrylates, polyalkyl methacrylates, drying oils, polyvinyl acrylates and cellulosic resins. 57/135 [0126] The substrates that are treated with the cleaning compositions are reasonably resistant to the cleaning compositions, including natural and synthetic fabrics, wood, cardboard and coated paper, especially if treated with a wax or other protective material, glass, thermoset resins, thermoplastic resins, ceramics, stone, masonry substrates, cement or metals (eg aluminum alloys, zinc alloys, stainless steel or galvanized steel). The cleaning compositions can also be used for a part of the human body, for example, hands or hair, as well as in animals. [0127] Although methods of contacting the surface with the cleaning composition can be carried out in several ways, for example, in the form of an aerosol or other spray medium such as standard spray nozzles; brush application; diving; coating; gel application of a compress bottle or brush and the like, but dipping and spraying can be specifically mentioned. If the surface to be cleaned is readily accessible then spraying can be used. The spray pressure will generally be 1.3 bars to 8.0 bars of absolute pressure. The mechanical strength of the impact removal composition facilitates material removal. On the other hand, if the surface to be cleaned has recesses or other shapes that are not easily accessible, immersion can be used. Obviously, the two methods can be used in combination and / or varied in apparent ways to those skilled in the art. During or after contact, mechanical action, such as scraping, peeling, friction, cleaning and the like, can be used to increase contact and / or assist in dissolution and / or lifting. [0128] The contact time required to produce an effective degree of dissolution and / or lifting of the material from a surface will depend on the nature and thickness of the material, the composition of the cleaning composition, including ingredient concentrations, temperature of the 58/135 composition and other factors. With some materials and under some conditions, contact times from a few minutes (eg 2-3 minutes) to an hour may be sufficient. The operating temperature when using the removal compositions can be 0 to 180 ° C or higher, specifically 15 to 90 ° C or 21 to 55 ° C. The treatment is most conveniently carried out at room temperature, but the lifting time can be reduced as desired by heating the cleaning compositions and / or substrate. Heating can be achieved by applying local heat, such as with a heat gun, or a more general application of heat, such as with an electric heater, infrared heater and the like. It is understood, however, that those skilled in the art can determine ideal conditions for particular removal applications by minimal experimentation. Higher temperatures generally increase the rate at which material is removed from the surface. [0129] The separation of ketal adducts from formula (1), specifically (1a), and the dissolved material from the substrate may include mechanical action such as scraping, flaking, friction, cleaning and the like, or washing the substrate with removal composition additional or other solvent, including mixing water or aqueous water with an organic solvent. [0130] The ketal adducts of formula (1), specifically (1a), are also useful in perfume and flavoring formulations (hereinafter referred to together as fragrance compositions). Ketal adducts (1) offer a combination of properties that make them useful in a wide variety of fragrance compositions. In particular, ketal adducts (1) have low volatility. Under normal conditions of manufacture, storage and use, they are not reactive with many other materials that are commonly found in fragrance compositions or in formulations in which fragrance compositions are used. 59/135 Another advantage is that cetai (1) adducts are stable under basic conditions. In addition, certain adducts of cetai (1) can be derived from biological raw materials. Thus, ketone adducts (1) can be advantageously used both as solvents as well as fixatives in fragrance compositions. Efforts continue to be made to find improvements in the performance of fragrance compositions, including the life of the product, its delivery effectiveness and its longevity or substantivity on various substrates. For example, during use, a substantial amount of perfume in a cleaning product is lost with the rinse water or during drying. It is desirable to have the ability to overcome these process conditions and to ensure that the perfume material left on the substrate provides a maximum odor effect for the minimum amount of material. In one embodiment, cetai adducts (1) can effectively function as a fragrance fixative, prolonging the effect of the fragrance composition and thus extending the life of the fragrance. In another modality, adducts (1) can work effectively to make fragrance composition compatible with waxes. [0131] The fragrance composition comprises at least one fragrance compound (also referred to herein as a fragrance molecule). The fragrance molecule is also called an aromatic compound. The fragrance molecule can be a naturally occurring molecule or a synthetic molecule (for example, a molecule that is synthesized in a laboratory from ingredients that are not naturally occurring). Naturally occurring molecules are those that derive, directly or indirectly, from living beings (for example, animals, plants, fruits, flowers and the like). Naturally occurring molecules include products of naturally occurring molecules and synthetic molecules. Fragrance molecules can be found in food, wine, spices, perfumes, scented oils and essential oils. For example, 60/135 many are formed biochemically during the ripening of fruits and other crops. In wines, most form as by-products of fermentation. [0132] Naturally occurring molecules include essential oils derived from plants. Essential oils are concentrated hydrophobic liquids that contain volatile fragrance molecules from plants. Essential oils are also known as ethereal, volatile oils or simply as the oil from the plant from which it was extracted, such as clove oil. An oil is essential in the sense that it has a distinctive plant scent or essence. Essential oils do not have the specific chemical properties in common other than imparting characteristic fragrances. Some essential oils like lavender, mint and eucalyptus are distilled by steam. The vegetable raw material comprising flowers, leaves, wood, bark, roots, seeds or skin is placed in a distillation apparatus over water. As the water is heated, the steam passes through the plant material, vaporizing the volatile compounds. The vapors flow through a coil where they condense into the liquid, which is then collected in the receiving vessel. [0133] Essential oils are derived from berries, allspice, juniper, seeds, almond, anise, celery, cumin, nutmeg oil, bark, cassia, cinnamon, sassafras, wood, camphor, cedar, paurosa, sandalwood, agarwood , rhizome, galangal, ginger, leaves, basil, bay leaf, cinnamon, common sage, eucalyptus, lemongrass, melaleuca, oregano, patchouli, mint, pine, rosemary, mint, tea tree, thyme, wintergreen, resin, frankincense, myrrh, flowers, cannabis, chamomile, sage, cloves, fragrant geranium, hops, hyssop, jasmine, lavender, manuka, marjoram, rose, rosemary, basil, lemongrass, blood-brain, skin, bergamot, grapefruit, lemon , lime, orange, tangerine, root, valerian, mango or similar 61/135 or a combination comprising at least one of the items previously exposed. [0134] Examples of fragrance molecules are alcohols (eg furaneol (strawberry), 1-hexanol (herbaceous, woody), cis-3hexen-1-ol (fresh cut grass), menthol (mint), or the like or a combination comprising at least one of the aforementioned alcohols); aldehydes (eg, acetaldehyde (pungent), hexanal (grassy, green), cis-3-hexenal (green tomatoes), furfural (burnt oats) or the like or a combination comprising at least one of the above aldehydes); esters (eg fructon (fruit, similar to apple), hexyl acetate (apple, floral, fruity), methylphenylglycidate (strawberry) methyl formate, methyl acetate, methyl butyrate, methyl butanoate, ethyl acetate, butyrate ethyl, ethyl butanoate, isoamyl acetate, pentyl butyrate, pentyl butanoate, pentyl pentanoate, benzoin (extracted from benjoeiro resin); black pepper (from the piper nigrum plant of the piperaceae family), cajepute oil (from the cajuputi melaleuca) , caraway, carrot seeds, coriander, cypress, dill, fennel, helichyrsum, lavandin, lemon verena, lemon balm (essential oil extracted from lemongrass extracted from melissa officinalis of the labiatae family), niaouli, palmarosa, petitgrain, tagetes, vetiver or the like or a combination comprising at least one of the preceding esters); ketones (eg, dihydrojasmone (floral woody fruity), oct-1-in-3-one (similar to bloody metallic mushroom), 2-acetyl-1-pyrroline (fresh bread, jasmine rice), 6-acetyl2,3 , 4,5-tetrahydropyridine (fresh bread, tortillas, popcorn), or the like or a combination comprising at least one of the preceding ketones); lactones (γ-decalactone (intense peach flavor), γ-nonalactone (coconut odor, popular in tanning products), δ-octalactone (creamy note, jasmine lactone peach and fruity, greasy and potent apricot) massoia lactona (powerful creamy coconut, lactona wine sweet coconut odor) sotolon (maple syrup, curry, fenugreek), or similar or a combination that 62/135 comprises at least one of the preceding lactones); thiols (etanetiol (commonly called ethyl mercaptan) mercaptan from grapefruit (grapefruit), methanethiol (commonly called methyl mercaptan), 2-methyl-2-propanethiol (commonly called tertiary butyl mercaptan)); linear terpenes (for example, mircene (woody, complex), geraniol (pink, flowery) nerol (sweet, flowery), citral, limonal, geranial, neral (lemon, lemon myrtle, lemongrass), citronellal (lemon, herb) lemongrass), citronelol (lemon, lemongrass, rose, pelargonium), linalool (floral, sweet, woody, lavender), nerolidol (woody, fresh bark), or similar or a combination comprising at least one of the previous linear terpenes; cyclic terpenes (for example, limonene, camphor, terpineol, ionone, thujuon or the like, or a combination comprising at least one of the preceding cyclic terpenes); aromatic species (for example, benzaldehyde, eugenol, cinnamaldehyde, ethyl maltol, vanillin, anisol , anethole, estragol, thymol or the like or a combination comprising at least one of the preceding aromatic species); amines (for example, thiethylamine, trimethylamine, cadaverine, pyridine, indole, eschatol or similar or a combination comprising at least one of the a preceding mines) or the like, or a combination comprising at least one of the preceding fragrance molecules.

[0137] In one embodiment, an additional solvent can be used in the fragrance composition in addition to the ketal adducts of formula (1), specifically (1a). Polar solvents such as water, propylene carbonate, ethylene carbonate, butyrolactone, acetonitrile, benzonitrile, nitromethane, nitrobenzene, sulfolane, dimethylformamide, N-methylpyrrolidone, glycolic ethers, methyl acetate, ethyl acetate, methanol, acetonitrile, nitromethane, nitromethane, propanol, isopropanol, butanol, benzyl alcohol, butoxyglycol, 1,2-propanediol (propylene glycol), 1,3-propanediol, ethoxyiglycol, hexylene glycol and dipropylene glycol, triethylene glycol, hexylene glycol, 64/135 diethylene glycol, ethylene glycol, propylene glycol, 1,2-butylene glycol or the like or combinations comprising at least one of the foregoing solvents mentioned are generally desirable. Non-polar solvents such as benzene, toluene, methylene chloride, carbon tetrachloride, hexane, diethyl ether, hexane, tetrahydrofuran or the like, or combinations comprising at least one of the preceding non-polar solvents can also be used. Co-solvents comprising at least one polar solvent and at least one non-polar solvent can also be used to modify the compatibility capabilities of the solvent and thereby adjust the clarity and opacity characteristics of the fragrance composition. Exemplary solvents are methyl acetate, ethyl acetate, glycolic ethers and water. Glycolic ethers and alcohols can also be used to make the ketal adducts of formula (1), specifically (1a), compatible with water, if desired. Exemplary solvents are water and ethyl alcohol. [0138] In one embodiment, the fragrance composition may optionally comprise a radical scavenger or a source of a radical scavenger. As used in this document, the term radical scavenger refers to a species that can react with a carbonate radical to convert the carbonate radical, through a series of rapid reactions, into a less reactive species, that is, a carbonate radical scavenger . [0139] Radical scavengers can be selected from the classes of alkanolamines, amino sugars, amino acid esters and mixtures thereof. For example, the following compounds can be used as radical scavengers: ethylamine, monoethanolamine, 2-methoxyethylamine, 3-amino-1-propanol, 4-amino-1-butanol, 5-amino-1pentanol, 1-amino-2- propanol, 1-amino-2-butanol, 1-amino-2-pentanol, 1 amino-3- pentanol, 1-amino-4-pentanol, 3-amino-2-methylpropan-1-ol, 1 amino-2- methylpropan- 2-ol, 3-aminopropane-1,2-diol, glucosamine, N 65/135 acetiigiucosamine, glycine, arginine, lysine, proline, glutamine, histidine, sarcosine, serine, glutamic acid, tryptophan, morpholine, piperidine, or the like, or a combination comprising at least one of the previous radical scavengers. [0140] The fragrance composition can optionally comprise a polymer. It is generally desirable that the polymer be soluble in the ketal adducts of formula (1), specifically (1a) and / or in the co-solvent used with the ketal adducts of formula (1), specifically (1a). In one embodiment, the polymer is soluble in water. In another embodiment, the polymer is not soluble in water and exists as a dispersion in the fragrance composition. [0141] It is desirable that the polymer be an organic polymer. The polymer can be a thermoplastic polymer, thermoset, or a combination of a thermoset polymer with a thermoplastic polymer. In one embodiment, the polymer can be an oligomer, a homopolymer or a copolymer. The copolymer can be a block copolymer, a star block copolymer, a random copolymer, an alternative block copolymer, a dendrimer, an ion block copolymer, a polyelectrolyte, or the like, or a combination comprising at least one of the foregoing polymers . [0142] Examples of polymers that are soluble in water are polyvinyl alcohol, polyacrylamides, polyvinylpyrrolidone, polyamides, hydroxyalkyl celluloses, such as hydroxyethylcellulose and hydroxypropylcellulose, polyacrylic acid, or the like, or a combination comprising at least one of the water-soluble polymers above. [0143] Examples of polymers that are not soluble in water are polymethyl methacrylates, polyacrylates, polyesters, polyimides, polyethers, polyolefins, polyethercetones, polyether ether ketones, polyether ketone ketones, polycarbonates, polyether ethyl ethers, epoxides, polyoxyethersides, polyoxides, polyoxides , polynorbornylene, polysiloxanes, polyvinyl chlorides, 66/135 fluoropolymers, liquid crystalline polymers, ionomers, or the like, or combinations comprising at least one of the foregoing water-soluble polymers. [0144] Polymers can be used as rheology modifiers, dispersants, stabilizers, promoters, or antimicrobials, and the like; in industrial product applications, such as textiles (processing, finishing, printing and coloring aids, washable protective surface coatings, manufacture of synthetic leather by saturation of non-woven fabrics, and the like; manufacture of fabrics, non-woven fabrics, fibers natural and synthetic and similar); water treatments (waste water, cooling water, drinking water purification, and the like); chemical spill arrestors (acid spill absorber, and the like); leather and skin processing (processing aids, finishing, coating, embossing, and the like); paper and papermaking (surface coatings, such as pigmented coatings, antistatic coatings, and the like, pulp binders, surface sizing, dry and wet strength enhancers, wet layer felting, and the like); printing (inks, jet printer inks with anti-capillary dye, thickeners for dye formulations containing cationic dyes to print acrylic fabrics, and the like); dyes (pigment and wear additive, crosslinking agent for epoxy latex emulsions, particulate suspension aid for clays, pigments, and the like); industrial plant effluent treatment (flocculants for phenolics in paper mill effluent, and the like); metal work (acid caustic cleaners, low pH metal coatings, pickling agents in cold rolled steel processing, and the like); adhesives (clear adhesives, adhesion promoters for metal, plastic, wood, and the like, non-woven float adhesive bond coatings, bonding, and the like); forest preservation; and 67/135 industrial construction products for buildings and roads (cement plasticizers, low pH asphalt emulsion stabilizers, acid caustic products for cement, concrete consistency modifiers, mortar, almond, and the like). [0145] The polymer has an average molecular weight number of less than or equal to about 1,000,000 grams per mole, specifically less than or equal to 500,000 grams per mole, specifically less than or equal to about 50,000 grams per mole, and more specifically less than or equal to about 5,000 grams per mole. [0146] Other additives can also be added to the fragrance composition to form a fragrance composition. These additives are optional. Suitable additives are antioxidants, antiozonants, antibacterial agents, humectants, colorants, dyes, pigments, food additives, pheromones, musks, a carbonate ion source, an alkalizing agent, a pH buffer, a conditioning agent, a chelator, an agent auxiliary, solvents (for example, a co-solvent), surfactants (such as cleaning agents, emulsifying agents, foam enhancers, hydrotropes, solubilizing agents and suspending agents), non-surfactant suspending agents, emulsifiers, hair conditioning agents ( emollients, humectants, moisturizers, and the like), hair conditioning agents, hair fixers, film-forming agents, skin protectors, binders, chelating agents, antimicrobial agents, antifungal agents, anti-dandruff agents, abrasives, adhesives, absorbents, dyes, deodorant agents , before antiperspirants, opacifying and pearlescent agents, preservatives, propellants, aids dispersing agents, sunscreen agents, skin tanning accelerators, ultraviolet light absorbers, pH adjusting agents, botanical products, hair dyes, oxidizing agents, reducing agents, skin lightening agents, pigments, agents 68/135 physiologically active, anti-inflammatory agents, topical anesthetics, fragrance and fragrance solubilizers, a polymer, and the like, in addition to the previously discussed ingredients that may not appear in this document. Oral care products, for example, may contain anti-caries, anti-tartar and / or anti-plaque agents, in addition to surfactants, abrasives, humectants, flavorings, or the like, or a combination comprising at least one of the above additives. [0147] In one embodiment, in a method of manufacturing the fragrance composition, a fragrance composition, the ketal adducts of formula (1), especially (1a), as described above, an optional solvent, an optional active agent, an optional surfactant, an optional thickening agent, an optional compatibilizer and desired additives are mixed in the desired amounts in a reactor. The reactor can be a batch or continuous reactor. It is desirable for the reactor to be equipped with a mechanism for stirring the fragrance composition. The fragrance composition can be heated if desired to evaporate some of the solvent or to further guide the compatibility between the fragrance compositions, the ketal adducts of formula (1), specifically (1a) and the optional solvent. [0148] In another embodiment, in another method of manufacturing the fragrance composition, the ketal adducts of formula (1), specifically (1a) can be used as an extraction solvent to extract a fragrance composition, such as essential oils of naturally occurring substances. The ketal adducts of formula (1), specifically (1a) can be maintained with the essential oil and further processed to form a desired fragrance composition. Essential oils can be extracted through steam extraction, supercritical extraction or solvent extraction. The ketal adducts of formula (1), specifically (1a) can be used in conjunction with steam, supercritical solvents, or normal solvents (solvents that do not 69/135 are in a supercritical state) to perform the extraction of essential oils. The ketal adducts of formula (1), specifically (1a) can also be used, in themselves, to extract essential oils. [0149] Steam extraction is normally environment friendly and uses only water to perform the extraction. Water, however, is not a good solvent for all essential oils. The ketal adducts of formula (1), specifically (1a) can be used in conjunction with water to extract additional essential oil from a naturally occurring substance than would be extracted using only steam for extraction. The use of the ketal adducts of formula (1), specifically (1a) in steam extraction, would continue to produce the environment-friendly process, while at the same time it would be effective in extracting additional oil from the naturally occurring substance. [0150] Supercritical extraction is usually carried out with carbon dioxide, but it can also be carried out with other solvents. A mixture of supercritical carbon dioxide and the ketal adducts of formula (1), specifically (1a), can be used to extract essential oils for the fragrance composition. Liquid carbon dioxide (which is not in a supercritical state) mixed with the ketal adducts of formula (1), specifically (1a), can also be used for extraction. Other supercritical fluids can also be mixed with the ketal adducts of formula (1), specifically (1a), to extract essential oils. [0151] Hexane extraction is generally used to extract a variety of essential oils. The ketal adducts of formula (1), specifically (1a), can be mixed with hexane (or other solvents) to facilitate improved extraction. Ethanol is often used to direct the secretion of a target hexane molecule after extraction. In one embodiment, although the ketal adducts of formula (1), specifically (1a), are used to facilitate the extraction of an essential oil together with hexane, they can also be used to 70/135 facilitate a segregation of a moiécuia aivo from hexane. By changing the ratio of the quantity of ketal adducts of formula (1), specifically (1a), the mixture of the target molecule and hexane and / or temperature, the target molecule can be secreted after extraction. Other solvents can be used in conjunction with the ketal adducts of formula (1), especially (1a), to facilitate the segregation of the target molecule. [0152] In yet another embodiment, the ketal adducts of formula (1), specifically (1a) itself, can be used to facilitate the extraction of various essential oils from naturally occurring substances. The ketal adducts of formula (1), specifically (1a), can be mixed with the naturally occurring substance and, under suitable combinations of temperature and pressure, can facilitate the extraction of an essential oil from the naturally occurring substance. The resulting product can then be subjected to purification processes, such as filtration, decantation, distillation, and the like, to obtain a purified mixture of the essential oil and the ketal adducts of formula (1), specifically (1a). The mixture of essential oil and ketal adducts of formula (1), specifically (1a), can then be mixed with other suitable ingredients to produce the desired fragrance composition. Thus, the ketal adducts of formula (1), specifically (1a), can be used not only to extract the essential oil, but can serve as a solubilizing solvent and / or a fixative in the fragrance composition. [0153] The mixture to form the fragrance composition or the fragrance composition can be carried out by dry mixing, melting mixing, mixing in solution, or a combination comprising at least one of the above forms of mixing. The dry mix encompasses the mixture without the use of solvents and is generally conducted to mix two or more fragrance compositions. Fusion mixing occurs when the mixing temperature is conducted 71/135 above the melting point of some of the ingredients and the wet mixing is generally conducted in the presence of solvents. [0154] Mixing the formulation involves the use of shear form, stretching force, compressive force, ultrasonic energy, electromagnetic energy, thermal energy or combinations comprising at least one of the previous forces or energy forms and is conducted in the processing equipment , where the forces mentioned above are exerted by a single screw, multiple screws, co-rotating or counter-rotating coupling screws, co-rotating or counter-rotating non-coupling screws, reciprocal screws, bolt with pins, cylinders with pins, rollers, battering rams, helical rotors, or combinations comprising at least one of the above. [0155] Mixtures involving the aforementioned forces can be conducted on machines, such as single screw or multi-screw extruders, Buss kneader, Henschel, helicones, Ross mixer, Banbury, roller mills, molding machines, such as machines injection molding machines, vacuum forming machines, blow molding machines, boilers, boilers with distillation and / or condensation columns, or the like, or combinations comprising at least one of the previous machines. [0156] The fragrance composition can be used in a variety of articles and applications. It can be used in body lotions, shampoos, massage oils, as a chemical identifier (for example, odorless chemicals or toxic or dangerous chemicals), to mask odor, in perfume sticks and tubes, air fresheners, candles, paints , varnishes, furniture, insect repellents, in polymers, cleaning products, detergents, cosmetics, personal care products, cosmetic and beauty products, personal care and cleaning products applied to the skin, hair, scalp and nails of humans and animals. Fragrance compositions are used in a variety of 72/135 air purifiers, such as, for example, spray, gel, (for example, an electric air purifier or spheres), a paper substrate (for example, car air purifiers suspended in rear view mirrors) or liquid (for example, air diffusers or with electric air purifiers). [0157] The term personal care products, as used in this document, includes pharmaceuticals, pharmaceuticals, oral care products (mouth, teeth), eye care products, optical care products and over-the-counter products and applications, such as bandages , plasters, dressings and the like, and medical devices externally applied or applied within humans and animals to improve a medical or health-related condition, to maintain, in general, hygiene or well-being, and the like. The term body includes the keratinous (hair, nails) and non-keratinous areas of the entire body (face, trunk, limbs, hands and feet), the tissues of the body and eye openings, and the term skin includes the scalp and mucous membranes. The term household care products, as used in this document, includes products used in a household to clean surfaces, control or mask odor, or biocidal cleaning products to maintain sanitary conditions, such as in the kitchen and bathroom, household laundry for cleaning and care of fabrics, air purifiers, air disinfectants, air deodorants / odor removers, candles, and the like. These products can be used at home, in the workplace or in institutional settings. [0158] The fragrance composition or fragrance composition is generally added as a concentrate to an article to produce a desired sensory effect on the article. The ratio of the fragrance composition to the ketal adducts of formula (1), specifically (1a), used in the fragrance composition can vary from article to article, depending on the composition of the article. In addition, the amount of the 73/135 fragrance can also vary from article to article, depending on the usefulness of the article. [0159] In one embodiment, the fragrance composition can be added to organic polymer formulations to give the organic polymer a specific odor or to mask an undesirable odor. Examples of polymers to which the fragrance composition can be added are polyolefins, polyvinyl acetates, cellulose polystyrene acetates, acrylonitrile butadiene styrene, polyacrylics, polycarbonates, polyamides, polyurethanes, epoxies, and polyesters. i [0160] The ketal adducts of formula (1), specifically (1a), are also useful in personal care compositions. As used in this document, personal care compositions have a wide scope and include cosmetic compositions (ie, makeup). Exemplary personal care compositions include bath or bathroom products, including various hair and body cleansers; eye care products; ~ cosmetics; a fragrance; treatment formulation, including hair coloring formulation; a capillary straightening or permanent waving formulation; a nail care formulation; an oral hygiene formulation, including toothpaste and mouthwashes; a hair removal cream; a skin care formulation; a formulation of care against the sun; a lip care formulation; an antiperspirant; or a foot care formulation. Personal care compositions are used interchangeably with personal care formulations. It is contemplated that some personal care compositions, such as hand cleaning and body cleaning formulations, are also within the scope of the cleaning compositions disclosed in this document. [0161] The ketal adducts of formula (1), specifically (1a), can be used to increase the solubility of an active agent in a personal care formulation. Depending on the native solubility of 74/135 active agent in the formulation and the type of formulation, the ketal adducts of formula (1), specifically (1a), can be used as a co-solvent with water, as a compatibilizer with water and an organic solvent, as a co-solvent with an organic solvent, such as an emulsifier, or a combination comprising any one or more of the above. As is known to those skilled in the art of formulating personal care products, an individual ingredient may have more than one type of function, for example, the ketal adducts of formula (1), specifically (1a), would function as a co-ingredient. solvent and as a compatibilizer. [0162] The presence of such a ketal adduct can allow the concentration of the active agent to be increased, often without the presence of volatile organic compounds (VOCs), such as ethanol, isopropanol, acetone, ethyl acetate, and the like in the formulation, or with reduced amounts of these VOCs. The result in some cases may be a low, more concentrated VOC formulation. The ketal adducts of formula (1), specifically (1a), can also perform additional functions, such as compatibilization, or solubilization of certain organic materials in an oil phase, and emulsification of an oil phase in an aqueous phase. [0163] The ketal adducts of formula (1), specifically (1a), can act as emulsifiers, compatibilizers, or solubilizers for ingredients other than the active agent, or as a coemulsifier, co-compatibilizer, or co-solubilizer for those ingredients other than the active agent. In addition, the incorporation of the ketal adducts of formula (1), specifically (1a), can lead to a less fatty formulation with a lighter or heavier feeling, especially compared to many other naturally derived ingredients. [0164] In cases where the active agent is slightly soluble or highly soluble in an alcohol or an alcohol-water mixture, the adducts 75/135 cetai of formula (1), specifically (la), may, in some cases, function as a co-solvent, both with alcohol and with an alcohol-water mixture. Cetai adducts of formula (1), specifically (1a), may, in some cases, allow an increase in the concentration of the active agent in an alcoholic or alcohol-water phase. In other cases, this may allow the proportion of alcohol in the co-solvent mixture to be decreased, which has the benefit of reducing VOCs in the formulation and, in some cases, lessening the drying effect that the formulation has on the skin. . In some cases, the keto adducts of formula (1), specifically (1a), can lead to a less fatty formulation with a lighter or heavier feeling. [0165] In formulations containing active agents that are oily or oil-soluble and sparingly soluble (if not insoluble) in water, the cetai adducts of formula (1), specifically (1a), may, in some cases, allow the active agent becomes dissolved in an aqueous phase and, in other cases, together with one or more other co-solvents. In some cases, a mixture of keto adducts having different solubility / solubilization characteristics may be present in order to effect the dissolution of the active agent. Alternatively (or in addition), the cetai adducts of formula (1), specifically (1a), can assist in the dissolution or compatibilization of such active agent in an organic phase, or to help to compatibilize or emulsify an organic phase containing the agent active with an aqueous phase, forming, in this case, an emulsified formulation that can be, for example, a cream or lotion. As before, cetai adducts of formula (1), specifically (1a), in some cases, may allow the level of emollient materials to be reduced or improve the sensation characteristics of the formulation. [0166] Whether an active agent is present or not, cetai adducts of formula (1), specifically (1a), may, in some cases, mutually assist incompatible materials to be formulated in 76/135 a stable formulation. Thus, the ketal adducts of formula (1), specifically (1a), are a valuable ingredient in many emulsified formulations, such as lotions and creams, which include water-in-oil or oil-in-water emulsion. In many cases, this can be achieved while reducing or eliminating other ingredients in the formulation. For example, volatile organic compounds or emulsifiers can be eliminated or used in small quantities. The presence of the ketal adducts of formula (1), specifically (1a), can improve the feeling of a personal care product, giving the formulated formulation a less oily, lighter feel, while preserving its function and performance . In many cases, the formulation's viscosity is reduced, which can contribute to a lighter and less greasy feeling. [0167] Due to the fact that the ketal adducts of formula (1), specifically (1a), are a good solvent for a wide range of materials, they are very useful for making concentrates, which can be left as an oil , an alcohol or other thinner to provide a personal care composition. [0168] In one aspect, the personal care composition contains the ketal adducts of formula (1), specifically (1a), and one or more active agents selected from organic anti-aging agents, organic anti-acne agents, organic skin lightening, organic ultraviolet light absorbing agents, organic tanning agents, organic anti-alopecia agents, antifungal agents and / or anti-dandruff agents, antimicrobial agents, organic medicines, depilatory compounds, hair dyes, or organic insect repellents. In some embodiments, the ketal adducts of formula (1), specifically (1a), form part of a mixture of co-solvent with water, oils, or with another organic solvent miscible with the ketal adducts of formula (1) , specifically (1a), in proportions relative to those that are 77/135 present in the formulated personal care formulation, and the active agent is dissolved in the co-solvent mixture. The active agents are present in amounts effective to achieve the desired activity, which can vary widely, depending on the active agent and the product. Thus, an active agent can be present in the formulation in amounts as low as 0.001% by weight, 0.01% by weight, or 0.1% by weight, up to 30% by weight. The amount of water used in the formulation can also vary widely based on the active agent and the product, from anhydrous products as described above, for the products to have 2 to 90%, 80%, 70%, 60%, 50%, 40 %, 30%, 20%, or 10% by weight of water, based on the total weight of the formulation. [0169] Thus, in some embodiments, the formulated personal care formulation includes a compound selected from alpha hydroxy acids, such as lactic acid, 2-hydroxydecanoic acid, 2-hydroxyoctanoic acid and glycolic acid, beta hydroxy acids, such as beta-hydroxy salicylic acid, avobenzone, coenzyme Q10, benzoate-4-methylbenzylidene, cinoxate, dioxibenzone, homosalate, menthyl anthranylate, mexoril SX, drometrizole trisiloxane, octocrylene, octyl methoxy benzine, amine oxide; PABA), phenylbenzimidazole sulfonic acid, sulisobenzone, titanium trolamine salicylate, salicylic acid, retinoic acid (including the fully trans isomer known as tretinoin), benzoyl peroxide, hydroquinone, arbutin (including plant extracts containing it), kojic acid, azelaic acid, glycyrrhetic acid, levulinic acid, 2-cyano-3,3-diphenylacrylic acid, sodium benzotriazolyl butylphenol sulfonate, ethyl-2-cyan-3,3-diphenyl lacrylate, 2-tbutyl-6- (5-chloro-2H-benzotriazol-2-yl) -p-cresol, 2- (2-H-benzotriazol-2-yl) -4methylphenol, benzophenone-12, bornelone, or 2 -benzotriazolyl-4-tert-octylphenol.

[0172] In some embodiments, a personal care formulation includes a compound selected from zinc pyrithione, selenium sulfide, clotrimazole, tea tree oil, or pyroctone olamine. These compounds function as antifungal agents, and the personal care formulations that contain them in sufficient quantities are effective topical antifungal treatments (such as Tinea pedis or Tinea cruris) and / or as anti-dandruff formulations. [0173] In some embodiments, a personal care formulation includes a compound selected from an amphetamine, an antihistamine, methylphenidate, oxymetazoline, tetrahydrolizoline hydrochloride, or psilocybin. These compounds work as vasoconstrictors in some cases and the personal care formulations that contain them in sufficient quantities are effective as redness reducers (such as eye drops and anti-redness or anti-puffiness creams).

These compounds work to modify hair fibers, breaking the S-S bonds in keratin; the personal care formulations that contain them in sufficient quantities are used in depilatory formulations, permanent waxes, relaxers, hair straighteners and hair stylers. [0175] In some embodiments, a personal care formulation includes a selected compound of aluminum tetrachlorohydrex glycine and zirconium, aluminum hydrochloride, or aluminum chloride. These agents are antiperspirants and the personal care formulations that contain them are often effective as deodorants and antiperspirants.

In some embodiments, the personal care formulation is essentially anhydrous, containing no more than 3% by weight of water, no more than 2% by weight of water, more specifically no more than 1% by weight of water. In essentially anhydrous personal care formulations, the amount of water can be 0%, as low as 0.001%, or 0.01%, or 0.1% by weight, each based on the total weight of the personal care formulation . [0179] In another aspect, for use in a wax formulation, for example, a lipstick, lip gloss, lip balm formulation, or a cuticle cream, which contains a wax, an emollient, and ketal adducts are provided of formula (1), specifically (1a). In specific interest modalities, the lipstick, lip gloss, lip balm, or cuticle cream formulation contains 0.1 to 10% by weight of water, specifically 0.5 to 5% by weight of water, each based on total weight of the personal care formulation. These formulations are in stick form or in another solid form. In another aspect, a personal care formulation formulated in the form of an emulsion is provided. The emulsion can have a continuous phase and a dispersed phase, one of which is an aqueous phase, and the other of which is an oil phase. Alternatively, the emulsion can have at least two co-continuous phases, again where at least one of the co-continuous phase is an aqueous phase and at least one of the co-continuous phases is an oil phase. The oil phase contains at least one of (a) a paraffinic, naphthenic or aromatic mineral oil, or seed oil (b) a nonionic organic compound having a melting temperature of less than 45 ° C, a molecular weight of at least 190 Daltons, a starch or ester group, an alkyl chain containing at least 8 carbon atoms, and a water solubility of not more than 1 part in 99 parts of water by weight; (c) in non-ionic organosilicone compound having 81/135 a melting temperature of less than 45 ° C and a solubility in water of not more than 1 part in 99 parts of water by weight; (d) a long chain alcohol; and (e) a wax. The emulsion further comprises the ketal adducts of formula (1), specifically (1a). The ketal adducts of formula (1), specifically (1a) can be present in a continuous phase, a dispersed phase, a continuous phase and a dispersed phase, or at the interface between a continuous and a dispersed phase. Additional ingredients may also include emollients, such as vegetable oils and animal fats and derivatives thereof; non-ionic organosilicone compounds, such as dimethicone and cyclopentasiloxane; co-solvents, as described in this document above; natural, synthetic or modified organic polymers; surfactants, as described in this document above; natural or synthetic fragrances; botanical extracts; natural or synthetic dyes; pigments or pearls; pH adjusters / buffers and chelating agents; inorganic particles; nonhydrocarbon propellants; preservatives, and a combination comprising at least one of the above. [0180] Formulations and personal care products can take the physical form of solids (sticks, bars, powders, etc.), solutions (including solutions containing enough showy or thickening compounds to provide a gel-like consistency), ointments, dispersions (including pastes or scrubs), or emulsions (including gels, ointments, lotions, creams or the like). They can be sprayable, in particular, solutions, dispersions and powders. [0181] Many personal care formulations are combinations of two or more of the formulation forms. For example, some personal care formulations contain an aqueous phase that contains a dissolved active agent, and also include an oil phase that may be present, for example, to provide emollients and / or humectants, or to produce a specific formulation. (cream, lotion and the like). 82/135 In such cases, it is possible to include two or more ketal adducts within the formulation to perform different functions. Thus, for example, a completely water-miscible ketal adduct may be present in the aqueous phase to help dissolve the active agent, and a partially or moderately water-miscible ketal adduct may be present within the oil phase to reduce its viscosity. or make its components compatible. Any of these ketal adducts can also perform some emulsifying or compatibilizing function between the aqueous and oil phases. [0182] In addition, the ketal adducts of formula (1), specifically (1a), can perform multiple functions within a personal care formulation, such as dissolving an active agent in an aqueous or oil phase, compatibilization, or emulsifying an aqueous phase with an oil phase. [0183] The ketal adducts of formula (1), specifically (1a), can reside in an aqueous phase, an alcoholic or alcohol-water phase, or an oil phase of a personal care formulation, depending on the specific formulation and of the specific ketal adduct. In many cases, the ketal adducts of formula (1), specifically (1a), can be distributed between the aqueous and oil phases of a personal care formulation, due to their solubility in both phases. In some cases, the ketal adducts of formula (1), specifically (1a), may reside at the limit of the aqueous and oil phases. [0184] The amount of ketal adducts of formula (1), specifically (1a), present in a personal care formulation depends on the function of the ketal adducts of formula (1), specifically (1a), of the other ingredients in the formulation of personal care, the specific form of personal care formulation, and similar considerations. In general, the formulation comprises 0.001 to 90% by weight, 0.01 to 80% by weight, 0.1 to 70% by weight, or 0.1 to 50% by weight of the 83/135 ketal adducts of formula (1), specifically (1a), based on the total weight of the formulation, although a more typical amount is 0.5 to 25% by weight, and in many cases, from 1 to 10 % by weight of the total weight of the formulation. [0185] Anti-aging, anti-acne, skin lightening and sun protection formulations may contain 0.001 to 50% by weight of the active agent, specifically 0.01 to 40% by weight, based on the total weight of the formulation . Anti-aging and anti-acne formulations can be formulated in aqueous and / or ethanolic solutions, or in lotions or creams. Sun protection formulations can take the form of clear, low-viscosity liquids (as is typical for spray formulations, which are often ethanolic or ethanol-based), or are lotions or creams. Spray sunscreen formulations can be aqueous and / or ethanolic solutions or diluted emulsions. Many of the active anti-aging, anti-acne, skin lightening and sun protection agents are soluble in the measure of at least 5 parts per 95 parts of the ketal adducts of formula (1), specifically (1a), in the formulation. These include, for example, avobenzone, coenzyme Q10, hydroquinone, oxybenzone, and salicylic acid, all of which are soluble to the extent of at least 5 parts per 95 parts of the ketal adducts of formula (1), specifically (1a). In these cases, the presence of the ketal adducts of formula (1), specifically (1a), often allows the amount of ethanol to be reduced, and / or the amount of the active agent to be increased in a constant ethanol content, leading to a formulation that is less dry for the skin. In some cases, the ketal adducts of formula (1), specifically (1a), can be used to replace a heavy-feeling material that solubilizes the asset. [0186] An anti-aging, anti-acne, skin whitening, or sun protection formulation may contain additional UV-absorbing agents, particularly inorganic compounds, such as titanium dioxide or 84/135 zinc dioxide. These materials are solid particles that are normally dispersed in a lotion or cream formulation. [0187] Sun protection formulations, such as sunscreens, often contain a mixture of organic UV absorbing agents, often to expand the range of UV light wavelengths that are absorbed. Such a mixture of organic UV agents can include two or more of avobenzone, octylmethoxy cinnamate, oxybenzone and ethylhexyl salicylate. These can, in aggregate, make up from 0.1 to 50% of the weight of the sunscreen formulation and more specifically make up from 2 to 25% by weight. [0188] The tanning formulation can contain from 1 to 25% by weight, for example, from 2 to 10% by weight of one or more tanning agents as previously described. Tanning formulations are often formulated in a cream or lotion. Spray tanning formulations can be aqueous and / or ethanolic solutions. [0189] Tanning formulations may contain organic UV active agents, as described above, as well as inorganic UV agents, such as titanium dioxide or zinc oxide. As is the case with sunscreen formulations, organic UV active agents can constitute 0.1 to 50% by weight, specifically 0.1 to 30% by weight of a tanning formulation and more specifically 2 to 25% by weight. A mixture of organic UV additives may be present, including a mixture of two or more among avobenzone, octylmethoxy cinnamate, oxybenzone and ethylhexyl salicylate. [0190] Anti-dandruff formulations can contain from 0.1 to 25% by weight, specifically from 0.5 to 10% by weight of one or more of an anti-fungal agent, as previously described. The formulation form can be an aqueous solution, aqueous gel or diluted emulsion containing mainly the aqueous phase. An anti-dandruff formulation can 85/135 contain one or more surfactants, particularly one or more anionic surfactants. Sulfosuccinate, lauryl sulfate and lauride sulfate surfactants and the various fatty acid betaines or fatty acid amide propyl betaines are preferred types, although others, particularly other anionic surfactants, can be used. Surfactants can make up 0.1 to 10% by weight of an anti-dandruff formulation. Surfactants can function as cleaning agents and / or emulsifiers in the formulation. An anti-dandruff agent can contain hair conditioners and other materials as well. [0191] Anti-alopecia formulations can contain 0.1 to 25% by weight, for example 1 to 10% by weight of one or more of the anti-alopecia agents. Formulations of these types are generally formulated in fluids with a low to medium viscosity, which can contain a propellant and be sprayable, which can be clear solutions in the case of anti-alopecia formulations or opaque emulsions in the case of anti-dandruff formulations. These formulations can contain propylene glycol, ethanol and / or water as a cosolvent mixture, although it is an advantage of this invention that the levels of propylene glycol and / or ethanol can in some cases be reduced due to the presence of the ketal adducts of the formula (1 ), specifically (1a). [0192] Chemical treatment formulations for hair include formulations for hair straighteners, relaxers, and perms, which may contain one or more materials that smooth the hair, possibly breaking the sulfur-sulfur bonds in keratin or some other hair component; among these are the depilatory agents described above. They can constitute up to 10% by weight of an active agent for chemical hair treatment. Chemical treatment formulations for hair can take the form of fluids, lotions, creams or gels with low viscosity. [0193] A hair styling formulation can contain one or 86/135 plus hair fixers, which kill hair in a restyled position. Some of these fixatives can also function as thickeners in a formulation to smooth and shape hair strands. The hair fixative can be from 0.25 to 25% by weight, for example from 0.5 to 15% by weight of the formulation. The hair styling formulation can take the form of an aqueous and / or ethanolic solution, a gel or a lotion. [0194] Antiperspirant formulations contain one or more antiperspirants as described above. Antiperspirant formulations can take the form of a gel, a viscous liquid (for roll-on applications) or a bar. [0195] A bar or roll-on antiperspirant may contain a little water, which may make up 2 to 60% of the formulation's weight and at least 5%, up to 30% by weight of the antiperspirant. [0196] Topical pharmaceutical formulations may contain one or more medicinal agents such as amphetamine, antihistamine, methylphenidate, oxymetazoline, tetrahydrolzoline hydrochloride, psilocybin, clotrimazole, tea tree oil, pyroctone olamine, chlorhexidine, octenidine, triclosine, triclosine, triclosine , Sodium 5-dibromo-4-hydroxybenzenesulfonate (Dibromol), quaternary ammonium salts such as benzalkonium chloride, cetyl trimethylammonium bromide, cetylpyridinium chloride and benzethonium chloride and the like. These formulations can be formulated in low viscosity fluids (which can be sprayed), gels, lotions, ointments, creams or ointments. Low viscosity fluid formulations can be aqueous and / or ethanolic; lotions and creams can be emulsions containing a continuous aqueous phase and a dispersed or co-continuous phase containing an emollient. [0197] Hair dye formulations can include hair dyes like those described above. Hair whitening formulations may contain a peroxide bleaching agent such as peroxide 87/135 of hydrogen, in an effective amount, for example, 0.1 to 5% by weight of the total weight of the formulation in the case of dyes; and 1 to 20% by weight in the case of bleaches. A bleaching formulation may, in addition, contain an inorganic oxidant such as a persulfate salt, in an amount between 0.1 to 5% by weight of the formulation. Hair dye and bleach formulations can take the form of low viscosity fluids, lotions, creams or gels. They can also be prepared in the form of a water-dilutable concentrate. A hair dye or bleach formulation may contain one or more agents that can function as emulsion stabilizers, or as a detergent. [0198] Depilatory formulations can contain one or more depilatory agents as described above, for example an amount of 1 to 20% by weight, based on the weight of the formulation. Depilatory formulations can be in the form of lotions, creams or gels.

Such formulations include formulations for the lips as a Lipstick, briiho iabiai or lip balm; cuticle creams; and the like. [0200] Several waxy formulations, including lip care formulations, include a mixture of one or more waxes with one or more oils and, in the case of lipsticks, one or more pigments. Lipstick and lip balm formulations, as well as cuticle creams, tend to be malleable solids at 25 ° C, while lip gloss tends to be a viscous or pasty liquid. A lip care formulation can contain, for example, 1 to 30% by weight of a wax; between 30-95% by weight of one or more different hydrophobic materials, among which castor oil is usually an important component; and from 1 to 30% by weight of one or more pigments. In some embodiments, the lipstick or lip balm formulation contains a ketal adduct of formula (1). In addition to the personal care formulations containing the active agents, a significant number of personal care formulations do not contain any of the active agents mentioned above, but exist in the form of emulsions. Emulsions can be of the water-in-oil type, of the '<t oil-in-water type, or of the type containing co-continuous aqueous and oily phases. These formulations generally take the form of low viscosity fluids (where the dispersion phase, which is generally an oil phase, constitutes a small proportion, typically 35% or less, or 10% or less, by weight of the formulation), lotions or creams. These formulations include, for example, hair conditioners, aftershave lotions, various body cleansing products, various hand and skin lotions, creams and the like, which do not contain specific active agents as described above.

[0202] Formulations containing ketal adduct of formula (1) have been identified as excellent cosmetic (makeup) removers, particularly if the formulation contains at least 5% by weight and more specifically at least 8% of ketal adduct. The ketal adduct can constitute up to 75% by weight, up to 60% by weight or up to 50% by weight of a cosmetic remover formulation. A cosmetic remover can include, in addition to the ketal adduct, water, an alcohol such as ethanol, isopropanol or 1,2 or 1,3-propane diol; one or more of the above components. This cosmetic remover can also be free of surfactants, or contain a low concentration (less than 2% by weight) of surfactants. [0203] The ketal adducts of formula (1), especially (1a), X x 90/135 are also efficient solvents for polymers that are generally present in nail polishes, such as nitrocellulose, cellulose acetate propionate, cellulose acetate butyrate, styrene / acrylates copolymers, acrylates copolymers, polyethylene terephthalate and resin resins tosylamide / formaldehyde, and thus find benefit as a solvent in nail polish removers, nail strengthening formulations, and / or nail polish. [0204] The personal care formulations described in this document satisfy certain continuing needs in the art for form ingredients. The ketal adducts of formula (1), especially (1a) can be used in a wide range of formulation forms and in a wide variety of specialized applications. Although these various types of formulations differ enormously, as do the conditions under which they are used, the ketal adducts of formula (1), especially (1a), can be used in the formulation of many of them, which greatly simplifies the process of formulation. [0205] In addition, formulating personal care formulations often addresses simultaneously the needs of formulations that are often competing and are sometimes even contradictory. For example, many personal care formulations contain an active agent that lends a particular functional attribute to the formulation. It may be desirable to increase the concentration of the active agent in a given formulation, or to produce a formulation that contains the active agent in a specific formulation form (such as a solution, dispersion, lotion, cream, bar, gel or the like), but the formulator is limited by the solubility of the active agent in the other ingredients in the formulation. Approaches to address solubility include the use of various types of emulsifiers, oils, co-solvents and the like, but it often occurs that other requirements, such as the specific formulation, are incompatible with the presence of such materials in 91/135 quantities needed for effectiveness. Use of the ketal adducts of formula (1), especially (1a) allows a greater concentration of active agent in a wide variety of forms of formulation specific to personal care. The ketal adducts of formula (1), especially (1a) are additionally compatible with many other ingredients in personal care formulations. [0206] In other cases, the presence or absence of a specific ingredient that can be an aid to solubility is important. For example, it may be desirable to reduce or eliminate volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from a personal care formulation. Some ingredients, such as ethanol, can dry out the skin and, in some cases, should be avoided for this reason, or for other reasons, such as VOC regulations in some jurisdictions. On the other hand, there are other cases where ethanol and / or other relatively volatile material is desired, so the formulation dries quickly when applied, for example. In some modalities, use of the ketal adducts of formula (1), especially (1a) results in formulations with reduced levels of VOCs and, in some cases, there are no volatile organic compounds. In one embodiment, the formulations and products described in this document may have a low VOC as defined below. [0207] The use of ketal adducts of formula (1), especially (1a) in personal care formulations can increase compatibility between the various ingredients in the formulations. Many personal care formulations contain hydrophilic and hydrophobic components. These ingredients tend not to mix with each other. To create a formulation that does not quickly separate into oil-rich and water-rich layers, thickeners, emulsifiers or cosolvents can be included to make it kinetically stable. These emulsifiers, thickeners and cosolvents often play a small role in the formulation's function or performance (that is, they are not 92/135 active agents), although they can affect the spread and sensation characteristics of the skin. Mostly, they are present to allow the various functional ingredients to coexist in a stable formulation form or to provide a desired feel or consistency to the formulation. The inclusion of certain compatibilizing ingredients (such as volatile or drying organic solvents, for example), as described above, can be more specifically omitted from some formulations. The need to include these compatibilizers can increase the complexity of the formulation. Formulations that require compatibility can be very sensitive to small formulational changes. Small changes to a formulation often destabilize, requiring a new balance of ingredients. [0208] The ketal adducts of formula (1), especially (1a) can act as emulsifiers, oils, co-solvents, compatibilizers and similar materials. In an additional advantage, the ketal adducts of formula (1), especially (1a) improve the spread of the formulation, and / or do not become dense or greasy. Use of ketal adducts of formula (1) especially (1a) can provide simplified formulations for personal care formulations that still have the necessary functions and attributes of formulations. In other cases, the use of ketal adducts of formula (1), especially (1a) can reduce the quantities of the various components of the form and thus reduce costs and simplify the formulation. This can allow a formulator to maintain a simplified inventory of the raw material and thereby reduce associated costs. Use of the ketal adducts of formula (1), especially (1a) can also result in personal care formulations that are more resistant to formulation changes. [0209] The following non-limiting examples serve to further illustrate various embodiments of the present invention. 93/135 EXAMPLES Example 1 [0210] 2-ethylhexyl levulinate propylene glycol cetai (2EH-LPK) was prepared by combining 708.0 grams of EtLPK with 729.2 grams of 2-ethylhexanol (99%) in a two-liter, four-necked round bottom flask, equipped with Dean Stark condenser, with stirring shaft and heating cover.

A nitrogen blanket was applied and 0.33 grams of tin octoate catalyst was added to the reaction mixture with a syringe. The stirred reaction mixture was heated to 190 ° C for 6.5 hours; displaced ethanol was collected in the trap. The remaining reaction mixture was transferred to a round bottom flask equipped with a stir bar, fractionation column (Vigreaux), distillation head and oil bath. The reaction mixture underwent fractional distillation under reduced pressure, producing 605.9 grams of 99.2% purity 2-ethylhexyl levulinate propylene glycol (by GC-FID). [0211] 1-nonanyl levulinate propylene glycol keta (1N-LPK) was prepared by combining 166.0 grams of EtLPK with 189.9 grams of 1nonanol (98%) in a one-liter, round, three-necked flask, equipped with a Dean-Stark condenser with a stirring shaft, thermoelectric and heating cover. The mixture was stirred at 100 ° C, 60 torr until the water content was below 100 ppm by Karl Fischer titration. A nitrogen blanket was applied and 0.065 ml of tin octoate catalyst was added to the reaction mixture with a syringe. The stirred reaction mixture was heated to 190 ° C for 3.5 hours; displaced ethanol was collected in the trap. The same deep, round liter liter flask was equipped with a stir bar, distillation head and oil bath. The reaction mixture underwent fractional distillation under reduced pressure, producing 146.2 grams of 1-nonanil levulinate keti -saw 94/135 propiienogiicol with 97.1% purity (by GC FID). [0212] 3,5,5-trimethylhexyl levulinate propiienogiicol cetal (355TMHLPK) was prepared by combining 166.1 grams of EtLPK with 190.4 grams of 3,5,5-trimethylhexanol (> 85%) in a flask with three bottlenecks of one liter, deep and round, equipped with a DeanStark condensing device with agitation axis, thermoelectric and heating cover. The mixture was stirred at 100 ° C, 60 torr until the water content was below 100 ppm by Karl Fischer titration. A nitrogen blanket was applied and 0.065 ml of tin octoate catalyst was added to the reaction mixture with a syringe. The stirred reaction mixture was heated to 190 ° C for 4 hours; displaced ethanol was collected in the trap. The same deep, round liter liter flask was equipped with a stir bar, distillation head and oil bath. The reaction mixture underwent fractional distillation under reduced pressure, producing 188.1 grams of ketal 3,5,5-trimethylhexyl levulinate propylene glycol with 88.1% purity (by GC-FID). Example 2 [0213] Latex coating formulations were prepared using three different latexes: vinyl-acrylic latex (UCAR ™ 379G commercially available from Arkema, Inc.), acrylic latex (UCAR ™ 625 commercially available from Arkema, Inc.) and another acrylic latex (MAINCOTE ™ 54D commercially available from The Dow Chemical Company). Acrylic latex UCAR ™ 625 has an acrylic copolymer content of 30% to 60% by weight and water content from 30% to 60% by weight, based on the weight of the latex and pH 9; and MAINCOTE ™ 54D acrylic latex has an acrylic copolymer content of 41% to 42% by weight and water content from 58% to 59% by weight based on the weight of the latex and pH of 7.2 to 7.8. [0214] Latex coating formulations for minimum film forming temperature tests 95/135 temperature, MFFT) were prepared by adding 20 grams of latex-binding polymer (UCAR 379G, LICAR 625 and Maincote HG - 54D), 0.04 grams of Rhodoline 643 defoamer (commercially available from Rhodia) and 0 , 2 or 0.4 grams of coalescent in a small bottle. The resulting mixture was stirred vigorously by hand to produce a stable latex coating composition. [0215] Formulations are shown in Table A. Table A.

The minimum film-forming temperature of the 2-ethylhexyl levulinate propylene glycol (2EH-LPK) adduct was compared to the coalescent solvents of cetyl ethyl levulinate propylene glycol (EtLPK) and isopropyl levulinate propylene glycol (iPrLK 2) , 2,4-trimethyl-1,3-pentanedial monoisobutyrate (reference mark TPM, available as TEXANOL ™ from Eastman Chemical Company). THE 96/135 minimum film-forming temperature of a pure latex control formulation with no coalescent was also measured. [0217] Table 1 shows the minimum film-forming temperature for formulations with different latex fillers (the percentage weight of coalescing solvent based on the weight of the latex formulation) as measured using ASTM Method D2359.

[0218] The data in Table 1 shows that 2EH-LPK decreases the 97/135 minimum film formation temperature compared to control. In addition, 2EH-LPK produces a minimum film-forming temperature that compares favorably with the TPM benchmark. Example 3. [0219] The relative contents of the volatile organic compound (VOC) of the coalescent solvents 2-ethylhexyl levulinate propylene glycol (2EH-LPK), 1-nonyl levulinate propylene glycol (1N-LPK) ketal, 3.5 ketal 5-trimethylhexyl levulinate propylene glycol (355TMH-LPK), propylene glycol ethyl levulinate kettle (EtLPK), isopropyl levulinate ketylene propylene glycol (iPrLPK) and 2,2,4-trimethyl-1,3-pentanediol monoisobutyrate (TPM) were determined by TPM emulation of the D2369 ASTM Method. Here, 15 milligrams (mg) of each coalescing solvent was maintained at 110 ° C for one hour with a nitrogen purge in a thermal gravimetric analyzer (thermo gravimetric analyzer - TGA). Table 2 shows the percentage of the remaining mass of each sample at various times. Table 2. í % of mass remaining I Component 0 min 5 min 10 min 15 min 20 min 30 min 60 min j EtLPK 100% 51% 7% 0% 0% 0% 0% ; iPrLPK 100% 60% 23% 0% 0% 0% 0% í TPM 100% 74% 49% 26% 4% 0% 0% ; 2EH-LPK 100% 97% 93% 90% 87% 80% 61% 1N-LPK 100% 99% 98% 97% 96% 93% 87% í 355TMH-LPK 100% 97% 95% 92% 90% 85% 71% [0220] The results in Table 2 show that 2EH-LPK, 1N-LPK and 355TMH-LPK have low volatility compared to other coalescent solvents. Surprisingly, most 2EH-LPK, 1NLPK and 355TMH-LPK (80%, 93% and 85%, respectively) last after 30 minutes, whereas TPM, EtLPK and iPrLPK are completely volatile in less than 30 minutes (min) . [0221] These data demonstrate that 2EH-LPK is a low VOC, efficient coalescing solvent. Example 3. 98/135 [0222] Hydrolytic stability of coalescent solvents at room temperature was determined by 2-ethylhexyl levulinate propylene glycol ketal (2EH-LPK), ethyl levulinate propylene glycol kettle (EtLPK) and isopropyl levulinate propylene glycol (iPrPK). The pH of latex formulations containing ether-functional coalescent solvents was monitored over time to assess the hydrolytic stability of the coalescent solvents. Not wanting to be limited by theory, ester hydrolysis can occur at a high alkaline pH (for example a pH greater than 9) during the storage of latex compositions. The products resulting from hydrolysis lower the pH of the latex composition and could decrease the coalescing efficiency of the coalescing solvent in relation to the initial amount of the coalescing solvent. [0223] Latex formulations were prepared by adding 1.0 grams of each coalescing solvent to 10 grams of an acrylic latex (Rhoplex SG - 10M commercially available from Dow Chemical Company) and adjusting the pH of each sample to a pH of 9 using ammonia. A latex control formulation was prepared without adding a coalescing solvent. Table 3 shows the pH of each formulation measured weekly for four weeks, whereas latex formulations were stored at room temperature. Table 3. Coalescent initial pH 1 week 2 weeks 3 weeks 4 weeks Control (without coalescent) 9.02 8.98 9.00 9.06 9.05 EtLPK 9.00 8.69 8.53 8.41 8.24 iPrLPK 8.93 8.79 8.73 8.71 8.64 2EH-LPK 8.97 8.99 8.94 9.03 9.00 [0224] The data in Table 3 shows that 2EH-LPK maintains the pH at a value that is close to the initial pH, over at least four weeks. In addition, since the pH remains almost constant for 2EH-LPK, it is likely that the hydrolysis of the ester will not occur appreciably since carboxylic acids would form and subsequently decrease the 99/135 pH of the composition. The results for 2EH-LPK are quite similar to those for the control that have no coalescing solvent. Consequently, 2EH-LPK-containing latex formulations have hydrolytically stable storage properties under alkaline pH conditions. Example 4. [0225] Hydrolytic stability of coalescing solvents at elevated temperature (45 ° C) was determined by 1-nonyl levulinate propylene glycol ketal (1N-LPK), 3,5,5-trimethylhexyl ketal propylene glycol (355TMH-LPK) and cetal of ethyl levulinate propylene glycol (EtLPK). Latex formulations were prepared by adding 1.0 grams of each coalescing solvent to 10 grams of an acrylic latex (Rhoplex SG - 10M commercially available from Dow Chemical Company) and by adjusting the pH of each sample to a pH of 9 using ammonia. A latex control formulation was prepared without adding a coalescing solvent. Table 4 shows the pH of each formulation measured weekly for two weeks, while the latex formulations were stored at 45 ° C. Table 4. Coalescent initial pH 1 week 2 weeks Control (without coalescent) 8.94 9.01 8.87 EtLPK 8.95 8.06 7.53 1N-LPK 8.92 8.75 8.63 355TMH-LPK 8.92 8.78 8.64 [0226] The data in Table 4 shows that formulations containing 1N-LPK and 355TMH-LPK kept the pH close to the initial pH over two weeks at 45 ° C, suggesting that ester hydrolysis does not occur appreciably, since since carboxylic acids could form and subsequently decrease the composition's pH composition. The results for 1N-LPK and 355TMH-LPK are quite similar to those for control, which has no coalescing solvent. Per 100/135 therefore, 1N-LPK and 355TMH-LPK-containing latex formations have hydrolytically stable storage properties under alkaline pH conditions. PROPHETIC EXAMPLES [0227] The following examples are prophetic. As used throughout the examples, 2EH-LK refers to 2-ethylhexyl levulinate propylene glycol ketal, 1N-LPK refers to 1-nonyl levulinate propylene glycol ketal and 355TMH-LPK refers to 3, 5,5-trimethylhexyl levulonate propylene glycol. Example 5. [0228] This is a prophetic example that aims to demonstrate the composition of a temporary hair dye and a method of making a temporary hair dye. Temporary dye compositions are based on textile and hair dyes containing molecules that are too large to penetrate the fiber axis. After rinsing, the color comes off after a single wash with shampoo. Temporary inks are also called direct inks. Temporary dyes add color to the hair, but they cannot lighten the hair color. Table 5 below details temporary hair dye compositions. All weights in table 5 are given in grams.

Example C: ketal is 355TMH-LPK. [0229] The method for making the compositions in Table 5 is as follows: [0230] Slowly add Carbopol in DI (deionized) water (part A). In a separate container, dissolve the EDTA in Dl water at about 50 ° C and then add the remaining Part B ingredients individually, and stirring. Part B is added slowly to Part A, stirring moderately. Add the ingredients of Part C individually to Parts A / B combined to form a main batch, which comprises Part A and Part B and Part C, adjusting the amount of sodium hydroxide so that the pH of the batch is 7. In one container separately, dissolve the inks in Dl water, keeping the temperature below 102/135 at 60 ° C and then add PEG-12 dimethicone. Add Part D to the main batch, which now comprises Part A, Part B, Part C and Part D. In a separate container, prepare Part E by spreading the pigments on the other ingredients in Part E. Add Part E to the main batch to form the temporary hair dye. Example 6. [0231] This is a prophetic example that aims to demonstrate the composition of a semi-permanent hair dye composition and the manufacture of a semi-permanent hair dye composition. As temporary dyes, these formulations depend on direct dyes. However, semi-permanent dyes comprise smaller molecules, based on nitro-phenylene diamine and due to their small size, direct inks in semi-permanent formulations can penetrate the fiber axis. As a result, semi-permanent hair dyes can last for about 6 to 8 shampoo applications. Table 6 below details temporary hair dye compositions. All weights in Table 6 are given in grams. Table 6.

[0232] The manufacturing process for the composition of Table 6 is ο following. The carbomer is placed in the water slowly while the solution is mixed quickly and the mixture is heated to 65 ° C. When evenly spread, add the remaining ingredients from Part A one at a time, while mixing at a moderate speed. Mix Part B ingredients (Part B1, Part B2 or Part B3) by mixing, while heating to a temperature of 65 ° C. Add Part B to Part A, mixing well. Continue mixing and cool to 40 ° C. Add Part C ingredients individually to the Part A and Part B mixture, mixing well after each addition. Example 7. [0233] This is a prophetic example that aims to demonstrate the composition for a semi permanent hair dye gel composition with a dark brown color. This example also details a method of making the composition in Table 7.

[0234] The composition is manufactured as follows. With moderate stirring, heat Part A to between 50 ° C and 60 ° C and mix the paints well. Cool to 40 ° C. Add Part B and Part C to Part A and mix well. Add Part D to the ink solution and mix well. Add Part E to the ink solution and mix well. Finally, add Part F to the ink solution and mix well. Example 8. [0235] This is a prophetic example that aims to demonstrate a composition used in the manufacture of a permanent hair dye composition. A method of making permanent hair dye is also described. Permanent hair dyes are based on oxidative dye chemistry and are formulated in two packages that are mixed at the time of sham. One package contains colored ink intermediates in an alkaline solution, while the other 105/135 package contains the peroxide activator that lightens the hair and converts the intermediate dye to its color format. Because permanent hair dye formulations can dye as well as a hair bleach, hair can be dyed a shade lighter than its natural color. Table 8 demonstrates the composition of a permanent hair dye.

[258] The following Table 13 details formulations for different candles containing the waxes detailed above and alkyl ester of cetai. The formulations are manufactured by combining three parts (Part A, Part B and Part C). Candle formulations 116-120 (Examples 116-120) are manufactured by weighing Part A ingredients in a container and heating at 80 ° C until the mixture is in liquid form. The container is removed from the heat and Part C is added to the container. While the mixture is still in liquid form, the mixture is poured into a container and a wick with a base metal guide is introduced into the center of the mixture. The completed candle is cooled to room temperature. [259] Candle formulations 67-72 are manufactured by weighing Part A ingredients in a container and heating to 80 ° C until the mixture is in liquid form.

Example 73. [261] This example is performed to demonstrate the use of a fragrance composition comprising vanillin in a perfume formulation (a candle). The ingredients of the composition are shown in Table 14 below. The ingredients of the composition are divided into two parts - Part A and Part B, which are then processed as follows: The Part B ingredients are mixed at room temperature until the vanillin is completely dissolved. In a separate container, the Part A ingredients are heated to 80 ° C until they form a uniform melted mixture. Part B is then added to part A (when at 80 ° C) and mixed until uniform. The container containing Parts A and B is poured into a candle mold. A wick can be added to the candle. Table 14 Ingredient % by weight Part A 114/135 Paraffin 37.5% Beeswax 37.5% Part B Cetal * 22.5% vanillin 2.5% 'Example A: ketal is 2EH-LPK; Example B: ketal is 1N-LPK. Example C: ketal is 355TMH-LPK. [262] A uniform solid candle is formed after cooling, with no signs of separation. Example 74 - Model solutions of ethanolic avobenzone sunscreen. [263] Mixtures with three components of ketal, ethanol and avobenzone are prepared by mixing the materials in different proportions at room temperature in a flask and stirring. Avobenzone, alone, is immiscible in 5% ethanol by weight level. The acetals used are as follows: A: ketal is 2EH-LPK; Example B: ketal is 1N-LPK. Example C: Cetal is 355TMH-LPK. [264] These data will show that avobenzone concentrations greater than 5% can be achieved in an ethanolic solution by adding ketal as a cosolvent. Thus, high concentrations of this UV agent can be provided in a formulation that is suitable for use in a spray sunscreen formulation. Example 75 - Ethanolic and aqueous oxybenzone sunscreen solutions. [265] Mixtures with three components of ketal, ethanol and oxybenzone are prepared by mixing the materials in different proportions at room temperature in a flask and stirring. The acetals used are as follows: A: ketal is 2EH-LPK; Example B: ketal is 1N-LPK. Example C: ketal is 355TMH-LPK. Transparent mixtures are considered miscible in this test, while cloudy mixtures or with separate phases are considered immiscible. Oxybenzone alone is immiscible in 10% ethanol by weight level. [266] These data will show that oxybenzone concentrations 115/135 greater than 10% by weight can be achieved in an ethanolic solution by adding ketal as a cosolvent. Thus, high concentrations of this UV agent can be provided in a formulation that is suitable as a spray sunscreen formulation. Example 76 - Spray solution of ethanolic sunscreen. [267] A model formulation of spray sunscreen contains 64.4 parts of ethanol, 3 parts of an acrylate / octylacrylamide copolymer, 3 parts of octyldodecanol, 7.5 parts of octinoxate, 4 parts of oxybenzone, 5 parts of octysalate, 3 parts of avobenzone, 2.5 parts of POLYCRYLENE® (CAS No. 862993-96-2), 2.5 parts of octocrylene and 5.1 parts of water. [268] Because the ethanol is drying, it is desirable to reduce the concentration of ethanol in the formulation. When 10 parts of ethanol are replaced by 10 parts of 2EH-LPK, 1N-LPK or 355TMH-LPK, a stable solution is obtained that dries out the skin less due to the decrease in the ethanol content. Examples of 77-78 - Sunscreen lotion. [269] Model sunscreen lotions are made from the ingredients shown in Table 15. Table 15.

Example C: ketal is 355TMH-LPK. [270] To prepare the sunscreen lotion formulations, Part B is first prepared by adding the carbomer slowly to the water with the mixture and heated to 80 ° C. Triethanolamine is added to complete Part B. In a separate container, the Part A ingredients are combined, except the acrylates / octylacrylamide copolymer. These components are heated to 80 ° C with mixing. The acrylates / octylacrylamide copolymer is then slowly sieved in Part A under constant stirring until dissolved. Part A is then added to Part B and mixed for 15 minutes at 80 ° C. The mixture is then slowly cooled to room temperature. Example 78 is less viscous and remains stable for at least four weeks. The modified product should feel less greasy and lighter. Example 79. Active Medicinal or Personal Care Agents. Salicylic acid [271] Salicylic acid (U.S.P. classification available from J.T.
