Description
FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The invention relates to aqueous compositions comprising ω-aminocarboxylic acid ester and fatty alcohol.


PRIOR ART

The use of compounds that contain amino groups as conditioners for skin and hair in cosmetics has been widespread for a long time.


WO2011002746, for example, describes α-amino acid esters as conditioners.


It was an object of the invention to provide new compositions with exceptional conditioning properties.







DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

Surprisingly, it has been found that the compositions described below have excellent application properties.


The present invention therefore provides aqueous compositions comprising, as component A), ω-aminocarboxylic acid ester and, as component B), fatty alcohol.


The present invention further provides the use of ω-aminocarboxylic acid esters for conditioning skin and keratin fibers, in particular hair.


The present invention further provides the use of ω-aminocarboxylic acid esters as emulsifier, in particular a cationic emulsifier, in preferably cosmetic formulations.


An advantage of the present invention is that the composition according to the invention can be provided completely on the basis of natural raw materials.


A further advantage of the present invention is that the conditioning effect can be brought about without using permanent quat structures.


A further advantage is that the ω-aminocarboxylic acid esters used have improved hydrolysis stability.


A further advantage of the present invention is that a good conditioning performance can be achieved without a negative influence on the formulation viscosity.


A further advantage is that the ω-aminocarboxylic acid esters used can also be used in shampoos and thereby have a conditioning action.


A further advantage is that the ω-aminocarboxylic acid esters used have good biodegradability. A further advantage of the present invention is that the shine of the treated keratin fibers is increased.


A further advantage of the present invention is that the ω-aminocarboxylic acid esters used develop a good effect even when used in small amounts.


A further advantage is that the ω-aminocarboxylic acid esters used have little impact from an ecological point of view.


A further advantage is that the ω-aminocarboxylic acid esters used exhibit an easier ability to be washed out on keratin fibers than quaternary ester compounds known hitherto.


A further advantage of the present invention is that the ω-aminocarboxylic acid esters used do not crystallize out.


A further advantage of the present invention is that it protects hair colorant from washing out.


A further advantage of the present invention is that the ω-aminocarboxylic acid esters can be formulated more easily.


A further advantage of the present invention is that the ω-aminocarboxylic acid esters reduce combing forces on wet and dry hair.


A further advantage is that the ω-aminocarboxylic acid esters used can be used in high active substance contents.


A further advantage of the present invention is that the ω-aminocarboxylic acid esters used produce, as emulsifiers in O/W emulsions, an exceptional skin feel.


A further advantage of the present invention is that it is particularly economical.


In connection with the present invention, the term “aqueous” is to be understood as meaning a composition which comprises at least 5% by weight, preferably at least 30% by weight, in particular at least 70% by weight, of water, based on the total composition under consideration. In connection with the present invention, the “pH” is defined as the value which is measured for the corresponding substance at 25° C. after stirring for five minutes using a pH electrode calibrated in accordance with ISO 4319 (1977).


The term “ω-aminocarboxylic acid esters” is to be understood as meaning both the esters and also their salts. The salts are present under aqueous conditions in particular protonated at the w-amino group.

If polyols have been esterified with the ω-aminocarboxylic acid, then further carboxylic acids, e.g. fatty acids, can be esterified in with the ω-aminocarboxylic acid ester which is present in the compositions according to the invention.


Preferably present ω-aminocarboxylic acid esters are selected from the group comprising, preferably consisting of, ω-aminocarboxylic acid esters of the general formula 1, the general formula 2 and the general formula 3,

The hair rinses were produced here as is generally customary by heating the oil phase of fatty alcohol (Cetyl Alcohol), emulsifier (Ceteareth-25) and the organic conditioners according to the invention or not according to the invention until melting (˜75° C.), and then adding this oil phase to the water phase (water) at 75° C. with stirring. The mixture was homogenized for 30 seconds and then slowly cooled with gentle stirring.


The pH was then adjusted with sodium hydroxide solution.


However, for comparison product 2.2, in a different and very involved method, only the water phase had to be adjusted to pH˜12 before homogenization (either with NaOH solution or, as described in WO2011002746, with L-arginine), since otherwise an inhomogeneous emulsion was formed later during the pH adjustment. That is to say, depending on the composition of the formulation, in most cases the pH thus has to be adjusted twice for comparison product 2.2, or it has to be tested at length what pH has to be established for the water phase in order to ultimately arrive at the intended pH. Despite the high cationic active ingredient content of 100%, the products according to the invention can thus be processed considerably better than the amino acid ester example 2.2 of the prior art since this laborious pH adjustment is not necessary for the products according to the invention and no inhomogeneous emulsions are formed.


For the performance assessment, hair tresses which are used for sensory tests were subjected to standardized predamaging by means of a bleaching treatment. For this, customary hairstyling products were used. The test procedure, the base materials used and the details of the assessment criteria are described in DE 103 27 871.


The hair was pretreated using a shampoo which contained no conditioners.


Standardized treatment of predamaged hair tresses with conditioning formulations:


The hair tresses predamaged as described above were treated as follows with the above-described conditioning rinse:


The hair tresses were wetted under running warm water. The excess water was gently squeezed out by hand, then the non-conditioning shampoo is applied and gently worked into the hair (1 ml/hair tress (2 g)). After a contact time of 1 min, the hair was rinsed for 1 min. Directly afterwards, the rinse to be tested was applied and gently worked into the hair (1 ml/hair tress (2 g)). After a contact time of 1 min, the hair was rinsed for 1 min with water.


Assessment Criteria:

The sensory evaluations of the hair tresses were carried out by means of grades awarded on a scale from 1 to 5, with 1 being the worst evaluation and 5 being the best evaluation. The individual test criteria were each given their own evaluation.


The test criteria are as follows: Wet combability, wet feel, rinsability, dry combability, dry feel, appearance/shine.


The table below compares the results of the sensory assessment of the treatment of the hair tresses carried out as described above with the formulations 1a, 2a and 3a according to the invention, the comparison formulations C4a and C5a, and the control formulation 0a (placebo without test substance).

The formulations 1a, 2a and 3a according to the invention with the compounds according to the invention from synthesis examples 1.1, 1.4 and 1.5 exhibited good cosmetic evaluations in the sensory assessment. The control formulation 0a without cationic active ingredient was significantly improved by the addition of 1.0% active substance. In this connection, the already very good properties of the comparison formulations C4a and C5a particularly as regards wet feel were yet further increased by the formulations according to the invention. The wet and dry combability, and the dry feel are at a similarly high level for all products. The significantly better assessment of the formulations 1a, 2a and 3a according to the invention for shine of the hair and particularly also for the rinsability is striking. The ease of rinsability of the conditioner formulations with the compounds according to the invention is particularly surprising compared to the comparison formulations C4a and C5a. During use, this may be a major advantage (in terms of time and ecologically) since the consumer has the feeling after just a short rinsing time with water that the product has been washed out.
