There is still a need for superior emulsifier systems, especially for stabilizing solid particles in formulations.
Surprisingly, it has been found that mixture compositions described in claim 1 are high-performance emulsifiers, particularly for cosmetic, dermatological or pharmaceutical formulations, which are able to achieve this object.
The invention therefore provides to mixture compositions comprising A) crosslinked organopolysiloxanes having organopolysiloxane units linked by a building block containing polyether groups and B) crosslinked organopolysiloxanes having organopolysiloxane units bridged by a bridging siloxane as described in claim 1.
A particular advantage of the mixture compositions according to the instant invention is its outstanding ability to stabilize pigment and particle containing systems e.g. in decorative cosmetics or in sun protection. Moreover, the invention enables the stabilization of a broad range of further W/O-formulations with different textures or containing versatile compounds challenging to formulate such as organic UV-filters. A special feature is the light and pleasant skin feeling in comparison to other emulsifiers of similar kind.
The mixture composition according to the instant invention comprises
—CH2—CH2-(G)nO(EO)x(PO)y(XO)z— formula (I),
where
where
The component A) comprised in the mixture composition according to the instant invention is present in the form of a mixture with a distribution controlled essentially by laws of statistics. The values for the indices x, y and z are therefore average values. The units characterized with the indices x, y and z can be present in the compounds of the formula I in random distribution, blockwise or arranged in any other desired order.
Preferably, each linked organopolysiloxane unit in component A) has, on average, more than 1, preferably from 1 to 10, preferably from 1.1 to 5 and particularly preferably from 1.5 to 4, linkage points to a building block of the formula I.
The organopolysiloxane units in component A) comprised in the mixture composition according to the instant invention are preferably identical or different units of formula (IB)
M2+c+2d Da D′b Tc Qd formula (IB),
where
—CH2—CH2-(G)nO(EO)x(PO)y(XO)z R4b formula (IC),
where
Preferably, radical R2b is a bond V only in the units M and D. The radical R2b is preferably not a hydrogen atom.
The average number of linkage points V per unit of formula (IB) is preferably more than or equal to 1, preferably 1 to 5 and more preferably 1 to 3.
It may be advantageous if, on average, at least one building block (1) is attached via an SiOC bond in the crosslinked organopolysiloxane in component A) of the instant invention per organopolysiloxane unit of the formula (IB). It may also be advantageous if, on average, at least one building block (1) is attached via an SiC bond in the crosslinked organopolysiloxane in component A) of the instant invention per organopolysiloxane unit of the formula (IB). It may be particularly advantageous if on average at least one building block (1) is attached via an SiOC bond and at least one building block (1) is attached via an SiC bond in the crosslinked organopolysiloxane in component A) of the instant invention per organopolysiloxane unit of the formula (IB), where the building block (1) is preferably not identical, i.e. a building block (1) is not bonded with an SiOC and an SiC bond at only one organopolysiloxane unit of the formula (IB).
A detailed process on how the crosslinked organopolysiloxane in component A) of the instant invention can be prepared is described in EP2301987A1.
The crosslinked organopolysiloxanes in component B) of the instant invention are preferably prepared by a method comprising the steps of
The radicals R1c are preferably identical or different aliphatic or aromatic hydrocarbon radicals having 1 to 20 carbon atoms, further preferably identical or different unbranched, aliphatic or aromatic hydrocarbon radicals having 1 to 9 carbon atoms and particularly preferably methyl, ethyl or phenyl, most preferably methyl.
The proviso that the SiH-group-carrying organopolysiloxane of formula (ID) is present in at least 6-fold molar excess, based on the double bond-containing siloxane of the formula (IID), prevents the formation of a network and the formation of highly viscous products resulting. As a rule, the organosiloxanes prepared by one of the two aforementioned processes have viscosities up to 10 000 mPas. A certain fraction of the organosiloxane may be present in the product in the form of a comb-like modified siloxane.
On account of the selected reaction conditions, the double-bond-containing siloxane and the Si-functional siloxane form, in the first stage, a siloxane of the following idealized “H structure” shown in formula (III) (c=0, R1c=Me, R2c=R=Me or H):
where m, n, o, p and q are positive integers.
This siloxane backbone is retained during subsequent process steps 2) and/or 3). The synthesis of the siloxane polymers can take place with or without solvents. Foaming which may possibly arise can be suppressed through the use of solvents. Suitable solvents are, for example, toluene and cyclohexane.
A detailed process on how the crosslinked organopolysiloxane in component A) of the instant invention can be prepared is described in WO2009138306.

The dispersive air pressure is adjusted to be 3 bar. Each measurement is accompanied by a measurement of the background (10 seconds/10,000 single measurements). The measurement time of the sample is 5 seconds (5,000 single measurements). The refraction index as well as the blue light value are fixed to be 1.52. The evaluation is done using the Mie-theory.

In a multineck flask rendered inert with argon and equipped with precision-ground glass stirrer, dropping funnel and reflux condenser, 1675 g of a siloxane carrying pendant SiH groups and of the average composition MD75(DH)25M (SiH content: 3.6 mol/kg) were admixed at 21° C. with 5.025 ml of the catalyst solution described in EP-B-1 520 870 (12 wppm Pt).
Over the course of 40 minutes, 586.7 g of 1-hexadecene were added dropwise such that the heat of reaction increased the starting temperature to 66° C. Over the course of 30 minutes, 993.6 g of a polyether of average composition CH2═CH—CH2O—(C2H4O)8—H were then quickly added dropwise, during which the reaction temperature was kept at a maximum of 56° C. When the addition was complete, a further 304.8 g of 1-hexadecene were added over the course of 20 minutes. The mixture was immediately cooled to 20° C. after the metered addition. The conversion of the SiH-groups was 92.7%. The viscosity was 1165 mPas.
The product from the above reaction (1.8 kg) was heated to 110° C., admixed with 125 ppm of trispentafluorophenylborane (dissolved in allyl polyether solution) and stirred for 1 h. The resulting reaction product was then diluted (1:1) with the starting material (product from the above reaction) and cooled. Following the addition of 50 ppm of triisopropanolamine, the mixture was stirred for a further 30 min and then the high-viscosity product was drawn off. The viscosity was 3636 mPas.
Firstly, 183 g of an SiH-functional siloxane of the general formula MesSiO(SiMe2O)28(SiMeHO)10SiMe3 were mixed with 143 g of a vinylsiloxane of the general formula CH2═CH—SiMe2O—(SiMe2O)348—SiMe2-CH═CH2, heated to 90° C. and treated with 5 ppm of an Pt catalyst. After 30 min, 1322 g of an allyl polyether of the general formula CH2═CH—CH2—O—(CH2CH2O)25(CH2CH(CH3)O)4Me were then added, the mixture was heated to 100° C. The mixture was then further stirred for 3 h at 100° C. until a complete reaction of all SiH groups was reached.
Component A) and B) from above were mixed in a weight ratio of 60:40, respectively, by stirring for 30 minutes at 22° C.
See example 1.
Firstly, 224 g of an SiH-functional siloxane of the general formula Me3SiO(SiMe2O)43(SiMeHO)5SiMe3 were mixed with 143 g of a vinylsiloxane of the general formula CH2═CH—SiMe2O—(SiMe2O)148—SiMe2-CH═CH2, heated to 90° C. and treated with 5 ppm of an Pt catalyst. After 30 min, 609 g of an allyl polyether of the general formula CH2═CH—CH2—O—(CH2CH2O)13(CH2CH(CH3)O)14Me were then added, the mixture was heated to 100° C. The mixture was then further stirred for 3 h at 100° C. until a complete reaction of all SiH groups was reached.
Component A) and B) from above were mixed in a weight ratio of 80:20, respectively, by stirring for 30 minutes at 22° C.
