The present invention relates to a monomer composition, a method for manufacturing the same, and a cosmetic material or a cosmetic raw material containing the monomer composition.
Use of a polymer prepared from a monomer composition containing a radical polymerizable group as a film-forming agent is known, in order to improve the water resistance and sebum resistance of cosmetic materials, in particular make-up cosmetic materials, thereby improving the cosmetic durability. In particular, an organopolysiloxane containing a radical polymerizable organic group can impart water repellency and slipperiness to a cosmetic material. However, there are cases where there is a problem with the compatibility of cosmetic raw materials to be blended and the like.
In order to solve such problems, copolymers having a carbosiloxane dendrimer structure or a siloxane macromonomer structure have been proposed. For example, Patent Document 1 proposes a copolymer based on an unsaturated monomer having a specific carbosiloxane dendrimer structure, and shows that the copolymer can be used as a film-forming agent which is excellent in blending stability with cosmetic raw materials such as an ultraviolet absorber or the like, and also excellent in water resistance and sebum resistance.
On the other hand, in order to manufacture a monomer having a complex structure such as a carbosiloxane dendrimer structure, a siloxane macromonomer structure, and the like, it is necessary to go through a plurality of steps. In particular, some raw materials in the upstream process have high reactivity, so measures are generally taken to prevent the raw materials from reacting and gelling during storage of the raw materials and during the process by adding a polymerization inhibitor, and the like.
For example, Patent Document 2 describes a silicone monomer composition including a silicone monomer containing a polymerizable group and 5 to 400 ppm of a polymerization inhibitor having a specific structure with respect to the silicone monomer. Furthermore, Patent Document 3 describes that the cosmetic composition contains a 10 ppm to 20 mass % of a polymerization inhibitor with respect to the total mass of the composition in order to increase the storage stability of the cosmetic composition.
However, it has been pointed out that some polymerization inhibitors are suspected to be mutagenic, and when used in direct contact with the human body as with cosmetic materials, the content is preferably reduced as much as possible from the viewpoint of safety. Therefore, it is desirable to separate the polymerization inhibitor from the monomer composition, but it is difficult to remove the polymerization inhibitor by means such as distillation, particularly when the raw material is an organopolysiloxane containing a radical polymerizable organic group, or the like. Specifically, although it is necessary to heat the monomer composition for distillation, there is a problem in that unintended polymerization and gelation may occur and the amount of the polymerization inhibitor cannot be reduced below a certain amount.
An object of the present invention is to solve the aforementioned problems of the conventional technology, and provide a monomer composition which has no concern about safety when used as a raw material of a cosmetic material or the like and that does not cause deterioration of quality such as gelation, and to provide a method for manufacturing the monomer composition.
As a result of conducting diligent research on the problem described above, the present inventors arrived at the present invention. In other words, an object of the present invention is achieved by a monomer composition containing a radical polymerizable monomer having a radical polymerizable organic group and an organosilicon-containing organic group in a molecule, wherein the total concentration of a polymerization inhibitor based on a total mass of the radical polymerizable monomer and the polymerization inhibitor is 130 ppm by mass or less. Furthermore, the present invention also relates to a method for manufacturing the monomer composition of the present invention, including: a step of bringing a liquid containing a radical polymerizable monomer into contact with an adsorbent material selected from the group consisting of activated carbon and alumina. The invention also relates to a cosmetic material or cosmetic raw material containing the monomer composition of the present invention.
With the monomer composition of the present invention, the amount of the polymerization inhibitor is reduced to an extremely low level, so there is no concern about safety even when the monomer composition is used as a raw material for applications in direct contact with the human body, such as cosmetic materials and the like.
In addition, the method for manufacturing a monomer composition of the present invention does not include a heating step by distillation or the like. Therefore, even though the amount of the polymerization inhibitor is low, gelation or the like due to an unintended reaction will not occur, and thus a high-quality monomer composition can be provided.
Examples of the organosilicon-containing organic group contained in the radical polymerizable monomer include a carbosiloxane dendrimer structure and a branched or linear siloxane structure. A carbosiloxane dendrimer structure is preferred.
The carbosiloxane dendrimer structure is a chemical structure that is highly branched radially from one silicon atom, and the radical polymerizable monomer having the carbosiloxane dendrimer structure is preferably a monomer expressed by the following general formula (1):

Herein, Ra is an alkyl group, an aryl group, an aralkyl group, or a group in which some or all of the hydrogen atoms of these groups are replaced with halogen atoms, and Rb is a radical polymerizable organic group. Radical polymerizable monomers with branched or linear siloxane structures are preferably macromonomers with a relatively large weight average molecular weight.

In other words, examples include (meth)acryloxy group-containing organic groups, (meth)acrylamide group-containing organic groups, styryl group-containing organic groups, and alkenyl groups with 2 to 10 carbon atoms.
Radical polymerizable monomers having such a branched or linear siloxane structure can be synthesized using raw materials and methods well known to a person skilled in the art. Examples include those monomers obtained by reacting an organosiloxane having a silanol group in the molecule with an organochlorosilane compound in the presence of a base. The organochlorosilane compound is not particularly limited so long as it has a radical polymerizable organic group, and examples include 3-methacryloxypropyl dimethylchlorosilane and 3-methacryloxypropyl dichloromethylsilane.

In particular, the monomer composition of the present invention includes one or more types selected from dibutylhydroxytoluene (BHT), methyl hydroquinone (MEHQ), and 4-tert-butylcatechol (TBC). These hindered phenol-based phenol polymerization inhibitors, hydroquinone-based polymerization inhibitors, and catechol-based polymerization inhibitors have been reported to be suspected to be mutagenic in some cases, and it is desirable to reduce the amount in order to reduce the potential risk.
The activated carbon used in the manufacturing method of the monomer composition of the present invention is not particularly limited, and is manufactured by activating carbon substances by reacting them with a gas or chemical substance at high temperatures. The adsorbent material can be used alone or in combination with adsorbent materials other than alumina and activated carbon, such as zeolite, silica, aluminum silicate, and the like. Activated carbon is preferred as the adsorbent material.
Contact between the adsorbent material and the liquid containing the radical polymerizable monomer can be made without solvent or in the presence of a solvent. The temperature and pressure at which the process of contacting the adsorbent material with the liquid containing the radical polymerizable monomer is performed are not particularly limited, but can be performed at 0° C. to 200° C., preferably 5° C. to 150° C., more preferably 10° C. to 100° C., at atmospheric pressure.
The method of bringing the adsorbent material into contact with the liquid containing the radical polymerizable monomer is not particularly limited, but can be performed by a fixed bed method in which the adsorbent material is packed in a container and the liquid containing the radical polymerizable monomer is continuously supplied, a batch method in which stirring and mixing and solid-liquid separation are each performed in batch operations, a moving layer method in which the adsorbent material is a moving layer and passed through the liquid containing the radical polymerizable monomer, or a fluidized bed method, in which a solid layer of adsorbent material is fluidized by the liquid containing the radical polymerizable monomer. The process of bringing the adsorbent material into contact with the liquid containing the radical polymerizable monomer is particularly preferably performed in a fixed bed system, and continuously supplying the liquid containing the radical polymerizable monomer to the fixed bed of activated carbon is more preferable.
In the case of the fixed bed method, the liquid containing the radical polymerizable monomer can be passed through the fixed bed of adsorbent material only once, or the liquid containing the radical polymerizable monomer can be circulated by supplying the outlet liquid of the fixed bed of adsorbent material back into the inlet. The circulating method is preferred because this method makes it easier to ensure the contact time between the liquid and the adsorbent material.
In a fixed bed system, the feed flow rate of the liquid containing the radical polymerizable monomer can be appropriately determined according to the type and concentration of the polymerization inhibitor and adsorbent material. The feed flow rate of the liquid containing the radical polymerizable monomer is not particularly limited, but can be calculated as the feed flow rate of the liquid divided by the mass of the adsorbent material (g−AD), and the flow rate can be 0.1 g/(min·g−AD) to 100 g/(min·g−AD), preferably 0.5 g/(min·g−AD) to 50 g/(min·g−AD), and more preferably 1.0 g/(min·g−AD) to 10 g/(min·g−AD). The feed flow rate is preferably within an appropriate range to ensure sufficient contact time with the adsorbent material and proper removal of the polymerization inhibitor.
In a fixed bed system, if the liquid containing the radical polymerizable monomer is circulated, the circulation frequency can also be appropriately determined according to the type and concentration of the polymerization inhibitor and adsorbent material. The circulation frequency is not particularly limited, but can be 0.1 to 20 times/hour, preferably 0.5 to 15 times/hour, and more preferably 1 to 10 times/hour. By setting the circulation frequency within the range above, the concentration of the polymerization inhibitor in the liquid becomes more uniform, which is preferable for proper removal of the polymerization inhibitor.
In a batch-type system, the stirring and mixing time of the liquid containing the radical polymerizable monomer can be appropriately determined according to the type and concentration of the polymerization inhibitor and adsorbent material. The time for stirring and mixing the liquid containing the radical polymerizable monomer is not particularly limited, but can be 0.5 to 30 hours, preferably 1 to 20 hours, and more preferably 3 to 10 hours.
The method of manufacturing the monomer composition or the present invention may include a step of bringing the adsorbent material into contact with the liquid containing the radical polymerizable monomer and then adding a polymerization inhibitor that does not have a risk of mutagenicity, or the like, preferably a polymerization inhibitor other than BHT, MEHQ and TBC, such as tetra(di-t-butyl hydroxyhydrosilicate) pentaerythryl and other silicic acid derivatives, alpha-tocopherol, propyl gallate, and the like.
The cosmetic material or the cosmetic raw material containing the monomer composition of the present invention or a copolymer obtained therefrom may contain (C) a surfactant as an optional component. The surfactant (C) can be one or more types of surfactants, used in combination according to the objective, selected from the group consisting of (C1) silicone-based surfactants, (C2) anionic surfactants, (C3) cationic surfactants, (C4) nonionic surfactants, (C5) amphoteric surfactants, and (C6) semipolar surfactants.
Note that examples of (C1) silicone-based surfactants include polyglyceryl modified silicones, diglyceryl modified silicones, glyceryl modified silicones, sugar modified silicones, fluoropolyether modified silicones, polyether modified silicones, carboxylic acid modified silicones, linear silicone polyether block copolymers (such as polysilicone-13 and the like), long-chain alkyl-polyether co modified silicones, polyglyceryl modified silicone elastomers, diglyceryl modified elastomers, glyceryl modified elastomers, and polyether modified elastomers, and the like. Furthermore, a silicone-based surfactant having an alkyl branch, linear silicone branch, or siloxane dendrimer branch, or the like can be appropriately used in the silicone or elastomer as necessary, at the same time as a hydrophilic group. Commercially available products include SH 3771 M, SH 3772 M, SH 3773 M, SH 3775 M, BY 22-008M, BY 11-030, ES-5373 FORMULATION AID, ES-5612 FORMULATION AID, ES-5300 FORMULATION AID, and ES-5600 SILICONE GLYCEROL EMULSIFIER (all are available from Dow Toray Co., Ltd.).
The amount of the surfactant (C) that is added to the cosmetic material or the cosmetic raw material containing the monomer composition of the present invention or a copolymer obtained therefrom is not particularly limited. However, in order to stabilize the emulsion or dispersion, the surfactant (F) can be added to the emulsion composition or dispersion composition in a range of 0.05 to 90 mass %, preferably from 0.1 to 50 mass %, and even more preferably from 0.5 to 25 mass %, based on the weight of the composition.
Specific examples of the powder or colorant include inorganic powders, organic powders, surfactant metal salt powders (metal soaps), colored pigments, pearl pigments, metal powder pigments, silicone elastomer powders, and the like. Composites of these can also be used. Note that these powders or colorants include those which function as ultraviolet light blocking components.
Furthermore, it is particularly preferable that some or all of these powders or colorants are subjected to a water-repellent treatment. Such a treatment allows for stable compounding into the oil phase. Furthermore, these powders or colorants may be combined together, and powders and colorants that have been subjected to a surface treatment using a general oil, silicone compounds other than the organopolysiloxane copolymer of the present invention, or fluorine compounds or surfactants, or the like can also be used.
Furthermore, some or all of these powders or colorants can be subjected to a hydrophilizing treatment. Thereby, the powder or colorant can be added in an aqueous phase.
Furthermore, some or all of these powders or colorants can be subjected to a hydrophobizing treatment or hydrophilizing treatment. Through such treatments, emulsification characteristics can be imparted to the powder itself. Examples of commercially available products include MZY-500SHE available from Tayca Corporation and the like.
One type or two or more types of the powder or colorant (D) in the cosmetic material or the cosmetic raw material containing the monomer composition of the present invention or a copolymer obtained therefrom may be used as necessary, and the added amount is not particularly limited. Furthermore, the amount of the powder or colorant can be added within a range of 0.1 to 99.5 mass %, and preferably 1 to 99 mass %, of the total composition or cosmetic material. In particular, the compounded amount for a powdered solid cosmetic material is preferably within the range of 80 to 99 mass % of the entire cosmetic material.
The silicone resin forms a uniform film when applied to skin, hair, or the like, and provides a protective effect against drying and low temperature. Furthermore, the silicone resin having these branching units tightly adheres to the skin, hair, and the like, and can impart luster and a transparent feel to skin, hair, and the like.
Silicone gums have an ultra-high degree of polymerization, and therefore form a protective film having excellent residual properties on skin and hair and excellent air permeability. Thus, silicone gum is a component that can impart luster and gloss to particularly skin and hair, and can impart tension and a resilient texture to the entire skin and hair both during and after use.
The added amount of the silicone gum is, for example, in a range of 0.05 to 30 mass %, and preferably from 1 to 15 mass %, based on the total amount of cosmetic material. Note that the silicone gum is easy to compound if used as an emulsion composition prepared in a pre-emulsification step (also including emulsion polymerization), and can be stably added to the cosmetic material or the cosmetic raw material containing the monomer composition of the present invention or a copolymer obtained therefrom. If the compounded amount of the silicone gum is less than the abovementioned lower limit, the effect of imparting gloss to the skin and hair may be insufficient.
Examples of the crosslinkable organopolysiloxane include non-emulsifying organopolysiloxanes having a structure in which an organopolysiloxane chain is three-dimensionally crosslinked by a reaction with a crosslinkable component or the like, but not having a hydrophilic moiety such as a polyoxyalkylene unit or the like is preferable. Such crosslinkable organopolysiloxanes can be used without limitation irrespective of physical morphologies such as dilutions and properties, and of the preparation method, and the like, and α,ω-diene crosslinked silicone elastomers described in U.S. Pat. No. 5,654,362 (commercially available products include DOWSIL 9040 Silicone Elastomer Blend, DOWSIL 9041 Silicone Elastomer Blend, DOWSIL 9045 Silicone Elastomer Blend, and DOWSIL 9046 Silicone Elastomer Blend, available from The Dow Chemical Company, USA) are particularly preferred. Crosslinkable organopolysiloxanes that are fluid at room temperature can also be suitably used, and examples include DOWSIL 3901 LIQUID SATIN BLEND (The Dow Chemical Company, USA) and the like.
Other components ordinarily used in cosmetic materials can be added to the cosmetic material or the cosmetic raw material containing the monomer composition of the present invention or a copolymer obtained therefrom, within a range that does not hinder the effect of the present invention, and examples of other such components include: organic resins, moisturizing agents, antiseptic agents, antimicrobial agents, perfumes, salts, antioxidants, pH adjusting agents, chelating agents, refreshing agents, anti-inflammatory agents, skin beautifying components (skin lightening agents, cell activating agents, rough skin improving agents, circulation promoters, skin astringents, anti-seborrheic agents, and the like), vitamins, amino acids, nucleic acids, hormones, inclusion compounds, and the like. These specific examples are common with, but not limited to, those examples specifically disclosed in paragraphs to and the like of Japanese Unexamined Patent Application 2011-149017 A.
The cosmetic material or the cosmetic raw material containing the monomer composition of the present invention or a copolymer obtained therefrom can contain a natural plant extract component, a seaweed extract component, or an herbal medicine component, in accordance with the purpose thereof. Two or more types of these components may be compounded. These specific examples are common with, but not limited to, those examples specifically disclosed in paragraph and the like of Japanese Unexamined Patent Application 2011-149017 A.
Depending on the purposes thereof, the cosmetic material or the cosmetic raw material containing the monomer composition of the present invention or a copolymer obtained therefrom may contain a solvent such as a light isoparaffin, ether, LPG, N-methylpyrrolidone, alternative chlorofluorocarbon, or the like, in addition to water such as purified water, mineral water, or the like.
Furthermore, at least one type of component selected from the group consisting of acrylic silicone dendrimer copolymers and alkyl modified silicone resin waxes may be used in the cosmetic material or the cosmetic raw material containing the monomer composition of the present invention or a copolymer obtained therefrom. These components are film-forming components similar to the copolymer obtained from the monomer composition of the present invention, but these components are not components having washability. Therefore, these components are preferably compounded within a range that does not impair the technical effects of the present invention.
As acrylic silicone dendrimer copolymers, for example, vinyl polymers having a carbosiloxane dendrimer structure at a side chain as described in Japanese Unexamined Patent Application 4009382 B (Japanese Unexamined Patent Application 2000-063225 A) are particularly preferred. Examples of commercially available products include FA 4001 CM Silicone Acrylate and FA 4002 ID Silicone Acrylate available from Dow Toray Co., Ltd. and the like.
As the alkyl modified silicone resin wax, for example, silsesquioxane resin wax described in Japanese PCT Application 2007-532754 T is preferable.
The cosmetic material or the cosmetic raw material containing the monomer composition of the present invention or a copolymer obtained therefrom may be in any form, such as liquid, emulsion, cream, solid, paste, gel, powder, multilayer, mousse, or spray.
The copolymer obtained from the monomer composition of the present invention can form a film that excels in washing performance while also having water resistance and sebum resistance, on the skin or hair, and thus a cosmetic material that provides these functional films can be designed.
The cosmetic material containing the monomer composition of the present invention or a copolymer obtained thereby can be used in specific products, including skin cleansing products, skin care products, make-up products, antiperspirant products, ultraviolet light blocking products, and other skin cosmetic products; hair washing agent products, hair dressing products, hair coloring products, hair grower products, hair-rinse products, hair conditioner products, hair treatment products, and other hair cosmetic products; bath cosmetic products; hair growth agents, hair tonics, and analgesics, fungicides, anti-inflammatory agents, refreshers, and skin aging inhibitors, but there is no limitation thereto. The monomer composition of the present invention or copolymers obtained therefrom come into direct contact with the human body, particularly when used as cosmetic products for skin and hair. Therefore, components with health risks, such as polymerization inhibitors that may be mutagenic, or the like were required to be removed as much as possible. The monomer composition of the present invention satisfies these requirements, and the amount of polymerization inhibitor has been greatly reduced compared to conventional products. Note that specific examples of cosmetic products for skin and hair are common to the various cosmetic products disclosed in the aforementioned Patent Document 1 (Japanese Unexamined Patent Application 2014-40512) and the like. Furthermore, the monomer composition according to the present invention or a copolymer obtained therefrom can also be used to replace some or all of the components in a composition of cosmetic materials containing acrylic copolymers with organosilicon-containing organic groups selected from known carbosiloxane dendrimer structures and branched or linear siloxane structures.
The present invention will be described in detail below based on examples, but the present invention is not limited to the following examples.
688 g of 1,1,1,5,5,5-hexamethyl-3-[(trimethylsilypoxy]-3-vinyltrisiloxane and 0.12 g of a toluene solution containing 5 mass % of a 1,3-diethenyl-1,1,3,3-tetramethyldisiloxane platinum complex (hereinafter referred to as platinum catalyst) were placed in a flask. After heating the liquid to 70° C., 136 g of methacryloxypropyl tris(dimethylsiloxy)silane solution containing 500 ppm by mass BHT was added dropwise over 2 hours while maintaining the liquid temperature at 70° C. The liquid temperature was maintained at 70° C. for 2 hours and then at 120° C. for 2 hours. Next, after performing a single distillation at 120° C. and 1 kPa for 5 hours, the liquid in the flask was collected. The BHT concentration in the resulting solution was measured to be 160 ppm by mass.
An end 17 of a first plastic tube was placed in a beaker 18 containing a magnetic stirrer, and another end 16 was connected to a suction port of a diaphragm pump 14. An end 15 of a second plastic tube was connected to an outlet of the diaphragm pump, and another end 13 was connected to an inlet of an activated charcoal immobilized filter 11 (SC050X AKJ from Osaka Gas Chemicals Co., Ltd.: activated carbon loading capacity: 1.45 g). An end 12 of a third plastic tube was connected to an outlet of the filter, and another end 19 was placed above the beaker 18.
As can be seen from Tables 1 through 3, which summarize the results of each example, the method of the present invention makes it possible to obtain a monomer composition in which the total concentration of the polymerization inhibitor relative to the total mass of the radical polymerizable monomer and polymerization inhibitor is 130 ppm by mass or less. On the other hand, the single distillation method used in the comparative examples resulted in BHT concentrations exceeding 130 ppm by mass, even after prolonged treatment.
