Recently W. M. Singer has introduced the notion of algebra with coproducts (and the dual notion of coalgebra with products) by somehow weakening the notion of Hopf algebra (see [6]). In this paper we consider certain algebras of invariants and show that they are, in fact, further examples of algebras with coproducts and coalgebras with products. Moreover, we discuss the close relation between such algebras and the structures considered in Singer's paper.
