Description
BACKGROUND OF THE PRESENT INVENTION
Field of the Invention

The invention provides a stable selenium disulfide lotion composition for treating skin fungus and a micronized preparation method thereof. The product is used as an external lotion for dandruff removal and hair care, and is used in the field of medicine or cosmetics.


Description of Related Arts

Selenium disulfide has anti-fungal and anti-seborrhea effects. It is often used as 1% or 2.5% selenium disulfide external lotion for anti-dandruff, anti-fungal and anti-scalp seborrheic dermatitis.


Selenium disulfide is almost insoluble in water or organic solvents, which affects the development and application of its products such as lotions. The development and application of new micronized technology has improved the development of selenium disulfide lotion products. CN105326672A and CN105456287A disclose superfine powder of selenium disulfides with a particle size of 1-50 m and their preparation and application in lotion products, which overcome the defects of the existing selenium disulfide lotion products with too large or too small particle size of the selenium disulfide. For example, if the particle size of selenium disulfide in the lotion products is too large (such as greater than 50 m), the selenium disulfide lotion is easily delaminated and other unstable phenomena. If the particle size of selenium disulfide is too small (such as less than 1 m), the probability of its passing through the skin barrier is increased which results in risk of skin toxic side-effect of selenium disulfide lotion. However, in order to make the superfine powder of selenium disulfide disperse evenly, the content of glycerol in the superfine powder of selenium disulfide prepared in the aforementioned patent exceeds 40%. A large amount of glycerin affects or limits the selenium disulfide superfine powder and excipient matrix to be formulated into lotion products. For example, it is difficult to formulate with a water-in-oil emulsion matrix into a uniformly dispersed and stable selenium disulfide lotion. In addition, the prepared superfine powder of selenium disulfide has a large particle range and its D90 exceeds 30 μm. The particle distribution uniformity is not good enough, which is unfavorable to the stability of the selenium disulfide lotion product, making it difficult for the content of selenium disulfide in the lotion to reach 2% or more, otherwise the lotion product is prone to delamination and other unstable phenomena.


Since selenium disulfide itself is insoluble in the lotion matrix, the dispersion uniformity and suspension stability of selenium disulfide in the lotion matrix directly affect the product quality of the selenium disulfide lotion. Selenium disulfide lotion products need to be further improved in terms of dispersion uniformity, suspension stability and use safety, so as to improve the safety, effectiveness and compliance of product use.


SUMMARY OF THE PRESENT INVENTION

In order to overcome the above-mentioned defects in the prior art, the present invention provides a new superfine powder of selenium disulfide with a particle size in the range of 1-50 μm and its application in lotion products. Compared with the prior art, it not only greatly reduces the glycerol content in the superfine powder of selenium disulfide, but also has a smaller range of product particles and better distribution uniformity, which is conducive to the preparation of selenium disulfide lotion products and is conducive to improving the quality, safety and effectiveness of selenium disulfide lotion products.
