Procedure

Zamora, U.S. Pat. No. 5,233,367, Example 1 (which used decanoyl peroxide as the polymerization initiator) was repeated to provide the ethyl half-ester copolymer of maleic anhydride and methyl vinyl ether as a 50% solution in ethanol. A hair spray composition was prepared at 55% VOC using this copolymer solution, and its properties were determined in comparative testing with similar hair spray compositions containing the copolymer solution of the invention.
