Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The present invention provides siloxane resin compositions obtained by mixing a MQ siloxane resin with a propyl silsesquioxane resin. The siloxane resin compositions of the present invention are useful in a variety of personal, household, automotive and medical care applications, and in particular, as a resin additive in pigmented cosmetic formulations.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Siloxane resins of the general formula R_nSiO_(4-n)/2, where R is an alkyl group and n is generally less than 1.8, are an important family of silicone polymers because of their utility in many commercial applications such as adhesive compositions and coatings applications. One particular subclass of siloxane resins, known as MQ resins (since they comprise primarily of “M” units of the general formula R₃SiO_1/2 and “Q” units of the general formula SiO₂), have found utility in cosmetic formulations. In particular MQ resins are commonly used in “extended wear” or “transfer resistant” cosmetic formulations. In these formulations, MQ resins enhance the substantivity of the pigments or other formulation actives to skin after application creating a longer lasting, and hence extended wear product.

Representative examples of transfer resistant cosmetic compositions using MQ resins are found in U.S. Pat. Nos. 6,071,503, 6,074,654, 6,139,823, 6,340,466, WO 97/17058, and WO 97/17059 which disclose compositions comprising the combination of organosiloxane resins and fluid diorganosiloxane resins with a volatile carrier.

U.S. Pat. No. 5,330,747 teaches cosmetics with enhanced durability using a film forming agent from a pressure sensitive adhesive composition comprising a trimethylsilyl endblocked resinous copolymer, a silanol endblocked polydiorganosiloxane fluid, and a phenyl containing polysiloxane fluid.

U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,075,103 and 5,733,537 teach a hair treating method for imparting curl retention to hair in which at least one film-forming ingredient is applied to the hair. The improvement utilizes as the film-forming ingredient an organosilicon compound which is a nonpolar silsesquioxane.

U.S. Pat. No. 5,800,816 discloses cosmetic compositions having improved transfer resistance comprising: a) from about 0.1-60% by weight of trimethylated silica, b) from about 0.1-60% by weight of a volatile solvent having a viscosity of 0.5 to 100 centipoise at 25° C., c) 0.1-60% by weight of a nonvolatile oil having a viscosity of 200 to 1,000,000 centipoise at 25° C., d) 0.1-80% of a cosmetically acceptable carrier.

U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,837,223 and 6,036,947 teach transfer resistant high luster cosmetic stick compositions comprising, by weight of the total composition: a) 10-70% of a volatile solvent having a viscosity of 0.5 to 20 centipoise at 25.degree. C., b) 0.5-40% of a guerbet ester, and c) 0.1-20% of a siloxysilicate polymer.

GB 2,319,527 discloses fragrance releasing non-volatile polysiloxanes based on a high molecular weight polydiorganosiloxane compounds where at least one or more of the organic substituents of the polymer is a radical derived from a fragrant alcohol.

Japanese examined patent publication 1994-72085 teaches makeup cosmetic compositions having improved water resistance and durability containing an organic silicone resin, a volatile silicone oil, and a make up powder.

While the use of MQ resins in cosmetics have led to formulations having extended wear or transfer resistance, a need exists to alter the properties of the siloxane resins used in such formulations. In particular, films of MQ resins used in these formulations can have a matte finish and are brittle. Thus, there is a need for improved siloxane resins that offer at least comparable extended wear and transfer resistance properties of the MQ resins presently used in cosmetic formulations, but having improved gloss (i.e. non-matte), are still non-tacky, and are more flexible. Furthermore, there is a need for resins in hair care formulations that improve the curl retention properties of hair following treatment.

The present inventors have discovered improved siloxane resin compositions by forming compatible blends of propyl silsesquioxane resins with MQ resins. The resulting siloxane resin compositions have improved physical properties. In particular, cosmetic formulations containing the present siloxane resin compositions have improved gloss and are more flexible than MQ resins alone, while maintaining their long lasting or wear characteristics.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

This invention provides a siloxane resin composition obtained by mixing:

• • A) a MQ resin comprising at least 80 mole % of siloxy units selected from
    • (R¹₃SiO_1/2)_a and (SiO_4/2)_b units, where R¹ is independently an alkyl group having from 1 to 8 carbon atoms, an aryl group, a carbinol group, or an amino group, with the proviso that at least 95 mole % of the R¹ groups are alkyl groups, a and b has a value greater than zero, and the ratio of alb is 0.5 to 1.5;
  • B) a propyl silsesquioxane resin comprising at least 80 mole % R³SiO_3/2 units,
    • where R³ is independently an alkyl group having from 1 to 8 carbon atoms, an aryl group, a carbinol group, or an amino group,
      • with the proviso that at least 40 mole % of the R³ groups are propyl,
  • and optionally;
  • C) a volatile siloxane or organic solvent,
  • wherein the weight ratio of component A to B is from 1:99 to 99:1.

The siloxane resins are useful in a variety of personal, household, or medical care compositions. In particular, the siloxane resin compositions provide glossy, non-tacky films that can be used to enhance the substantivity of color cosmetic formulations. The siloxane resin compositions can also be used in hair care formulations to enhance curl retention properties. The siloxane resin compositions can also enhance the feel of treated hair, providing a softer feel compared to other siloxane resin. Thus, the present invention provides personal, household, automotive, or medical care compositions comprising the siloxane resin compositions described herein.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

Component A) is a MQ resin comprising at least 80 mole % of siloxy units selected from (R¹₃SiO_1/2)_a and (SiO_4/2)_b units, where R¹ is an alkyl group having from 1 to 8 carbon atoms, an aryl group, a carbinol group, or an amino group, with the proviso that at least 95 mole % of the R¹ groups are alkyl groups, a and b has a value greater than zero, and the ratio of a/b is 0.5 to 1.5.

The R¹ units of the MQ resin are independently an alkyl group having from 1 to 8 carbon atoms, an aryl group, a carbinol group, or an amino group. The alkyl groups are illustrated by methyl, ethyl, propyl, butyl, pentyl, hexyl, and octyl. The aryl groups are illustrated by phenyl, naphthyl, benzyl, tolyl, xylyl, xenyl, methylphenyl, 2-phenylethyl, 2-phenyl-2-methylethyl, chlorophenyl, bromophenyl and fluorophenyl with the aryl group typically being phenyl.

For the purposes of this invention a “carbinol group” is defined as any group containing at least one carbon-bonded hydroxyl (COH) radical. Thus the carbinol groups may contain more than one COH radical such as for example

The carbinol group if free of aryl groups has at least 3 carbon atoms, or an aryl-containing carbinol group having at least 6 carbon atoms, The carbinol group free of aryl groups having at least 3 carbon atoms is illustrated by groups having the formula R⁴OH wherein R⁴ is a divalent hydrocarbon radical having at least 3 carbon atoms or divalent hydrocarbonoxy radical having at least 3 carbon atoms. The group R⁴ is illustrated by alkylene radicals such as —(CH₂)_x— where x has a value of 3 to 10, —CH₂CH(CH₃)—, —CH₂CH(CH₃)CH₂—, —CH₂CH₂CH(CH₂CH₃)CH₂CH₂CH₂—, and —OCH(CH₃)(CH₂)_x— wherein x has a value of 1 to 10.

The aryl-containing carbinol group having at least 6 carbon atoms is illustrated by groups having the formula R⁵OH wherein R⁵ is an arylene radical such as —(CH₂)_xC₆H₄— wherein x has a value of 0 to 10, —CH₂CH(CH₃)(CH₂)_xC₆H₄— wherein x has a value of 0 to 10, —(CH₂)_xC₆H₄(CH₂)_x— wherein x has a value of 1 to 10. The aryl-containing carbinol groups typically have from 6 to 14 atoms.

The amino group is illustrated by groups having the formula —R⁶NH₂ or —R⁶NHR⁷NH₂ wherein R⁶ is a divalent hydrocarbon radical having at least 2 carbon atoms and R⁷ is a divalent hydrocarbon radical having at least 2 carbon atoms. The group R⁶ is typically an alkylene radical having from 2 to 20 carbon atoms. R⁶ is illustrated by ethylene, propylene, —CH₂CHCH₃—, butylene, —CH₂CH(CH₃)CH₂—, pentamethylene, hexamethylene, 3-ethyl-hexamethylene, octamethylene, and decamethylene.

R⁷ is typically an alkylene radical having from 2 to 20 carbon atoms. R⁷ is illustrated by ethylene, propylene, —CH₂CHCH₃—, butylene, —CH₂CH(CH₃)CH₂—, pentamethylene, hexamethylene, 3-ethyl-hexarnethylene, octamethylene, and decamethylene.

Typical amino groups are —CH₂CH₂CH₂NH₂ and —CH₂(CH₃)CHCH₂(H)NCH₃, —CH₂CH₂NHCH₂CH₂NH₂, —CH₂CH₂NH₂, —CH₂CH₂NHCH₃, —CH₂CH₂CH₂CH₂NH₂, —(CH₂CH₂NH)₃H, and —CH₂CH₂NHCH₂CH₂NHC₄H₉.

Typically, R¹ is a methyl group.

MQ resins suitable for use as component (A), and methods for their preparation, are known in the art. For example, U.S. Pat. No. 2,814,601 to Currie et al., Nov. 26, 1957, which is hereby incorporated by reference, discloses that MQ resins can be prepared by converting a water-soluble silicate into a silicic acid monomer or silicic acid oligomer using an acid. When adequate polymerization has been achieved, the resin is end-capped with trimethylchlorosilane to yield the MQ resin. Another method for preparing MQ resins is disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 2,857,356 to Goodwin, Oct. 21, 1958, which is hereby incorporated by reference. Goodwin discloses a method for the preparation of an MQ resin by the cohydrolysis of a mixture of an alkyl silicate and a hydrolyzable trialkylsilane organopolysiloxane with water.

The MQ resins suitable as component A) in the present invention may contain D and T units, providing that at least 80 mole %, alternatively 90 mole % of the total siloxane units are M and Q units. The MQ resins may also contain hydroxy groups. Typically, the MQ resins have a total weight % hydroxy content of 2-10 weight %, alternatively 2-5 weight %. The MQ resins can also be further “capped” wherein residual hydroxy groups are reacted with additional M groups.

Component B) is a propyl silsesquioxane resin comprising at least 80 mole % of R³SiO_3/2 units, where R³ is independently an alkyl group having from 1 to 8 carbon atoms an aryl group, a carbinol group, or an amino group, and with the proviso that at least 40 mole % of the R³ groups are propyl. The propyl silsesquioxane resins are referred herein as T-propyl resins, since the majority of the siloxane units are T units of the general formula R³SiO_3/2 where at least 40 mole %, alternatively 50 mole %, or alternatively 90 mole % of the R³ groups are propyl. The R³ groups are illustrated by the same structures as described above for R¹ groups.

Silsesquioxane resins are well known in the art and are typically prepared by hydrolyzing an organosilane having three hydrolyzable groups on the silicon atom, such as a halogen or alkoxy group. Thus, component (B) can be obtained by hydrolyzing propyltrimethoxysilane, propyltriethoxysilane, propyltripropoxysilane, or by co-hydrolyzing the aforementioned propylalkoxysilanes with various alkoxysilanes. Examples of these alkoxysilanes include methyltrimethoxysilane, methyltriethoxysilane, methyltriisopropoxysilane, dimethyldimethoxysilane, and phenyltrimethoxysilane. Propyltrichlorosilane can also be hydrolyzed alone, or in the presence of alcohol. In this case, co-hydrolyzation can be carried out by adding methyltrichlorosilane, dimethyldichlorosilane, phenyltrichlorosilane, or similar chlorosilanes and methyltrimethoxysilane, methyltriethoxysilane, methyltriisopropoxysilane, or similar methylalkoxysilane. Alcohols suitable for these purposes include methanol, ethanol, n-propyl alcohol, isopropyl alcohol, butanol, methoxy ethanol, ethoxy ethanol, or similar alcohols. Examples of hydrocarbon-type solvents which can also be concurrently used include toluene, xylene, or similar aromatic hydrocarbons; hexane, heptane, isooctane, or similar linear or partially branched saturated hydrocarbons; and cyclohexane, or similar aliphatic hydrocarbons.

The T-propyl resins suitable as component B) in the present invention may contain M, D, and Q units, providing that at least 80 mole %, alternatively 90 mole % of the total siloxane units are T units. The T-propyl resins may also contain hydroxy and/or alkoxy groups. Typically, the T-propyl resins have a total weight % hydroxy content of 2-10 weight % and a total weight % alkoxy content of up to 20 weight %, alternatively 6-8 weight % hydroxy content and up to 10 weight % alkoxy content.

A volatile siloxane or organic solvent can be included as optional component C) when mixing components A) and B). Any volatile siloxane or organic solvent can be selected providing components A) and B) are miscible with the solvent.

The volatile siloxane solvent can be a cyclic polysiloxane, a linear polysiloxane, or mixtures thereof. Some representative volatile linear polysiloxanes are hexamethyldisiloxane, octamethyltrisiloxane, decamethyltetrasiloxane, tetradecamethylhexasiloxane, and hexadecamethylheptasiloxane. Some representative volatile cyclic polysiloxanes are hexamethylcyclotrisiloxane, octamethylcyclotetrasiloxane, decamethylcyclopentasiloxane, and dodecamethylcyclohexasiloxane. The organic solvent can be an alcohol such as methanol, ethanol, isopropanol, butanol, or n-propanol, a ketone such as acetone, methylethyl ketone, or methyl isobutyl ketone; an aromatic hydrocarbon such as benzene, toluene, or xylene; an aliphatic hydrocarbon such as heptane, hexane, octane, or isododecane; a glycol ether such as propylene glycol methyl ether, dipropylene glycol methyl ether, propylene glycol n-butyl ether, propylene glycol n-propyl ether, or ethylene glycol n-butyl ether, a halogenated hydrocarbon such as dichloromethane, 1,1,1-trichloroethane or methylene chloride, chloroform, dimethyl sulfoxide, dimethyl formamide, acetonitrile, tetrahydrofuran, white spirits, mineral spirits, or naphtha, or an ester.

There are no special requirements or conditions needed for effecting the mixing of components A) and B). Thus, any method in the art known to effect mixing of such compositions can be used. Components A) and B) can be optionally contained in a solvent, as described supra as component C). The mixing can be conducted in a batch, semi-continuous, or continuous process.

The weight ratio of component A) to component B) (i.e. A/B) in the mixture can vary from 99:1 to 1:99, alternatively 85:15 to 15:85.

The siloxane resin compositions of the present invention are useful in a variety of personal, household, automotive, or medical care applications. In particular, the siloxane resin compositions of the present invention provide glossy, non-tacky films that can be used to enhance the substantivity of color cosmetic formulations. The siloxane resin compositions can also be used as additives in hair care formulations to enhance curl retention properties. Thus, the present invention provides personal, household, automotive, or medical care compositions comprising the siloxane resins described herein.

• 3) Detangle the tress completely
• 4) Roll the tress on rod spiral curler,
• 5) Leave the swatches to dry overnight in an oven at 40° C.Test—Curl Retention Measurements:
• 1. Start the humidity chamber 2 hours before the test set at 70% humidity and 25 C.
• 2. Carefully remove the roller from hair by twisting it slightly, 10 minutes before the start of the test. Cut the ends of the tress in order to make it even (cut as few as possible).
• 3. Ensure each tress is correctly curled.
• 4. Hang the tresses in the humidity chamber: the bottom of the wax sealing on the tress should be on the line “0” of the millimeter paper sheet in the back of the chamber.
• 5. Measure hair tress length at predetermined intervals of time, the length is measured as the distance between the bottom of the wax sealing and the bottom of the tress—be aware that the bottom of the tress is going down, so the view angle is perpendicular to the glass.
• 6. After the 5 hours, remove the tresses from the humidity chamber and measure the tress length at its maximum, by unrolling it completely. Calculate curl retention as described below.

Percent curl retention is calculated as follows:

$\%\mathrm{Curl}\mathrm{Retention}=\frac{\max \mathrm{length}-\mathrm{length}\mathrm{at}T=x}{\max \mathrm{length}-\mathrm{length}\mathrm{at}T=0}\times 100$ Foundation FormulationPigment Premix:

• 1) Cut collagen into 3.5″×3″ pieces, place one on each of the 3″×2.5″ polycarbonate blocks and put in the humidity chamber overnight. This chamber must be at a constant 98% relative humidity level.
• 2) Remove collagen and block from chamber. Secure collagen to block with Scotch tape taking care not to place any tape on the top of the block's surface.
• 3) Add approximately 1 gram of foundation to the collagen, beading it across the top of the block. Using a #8 Meyer rod, coat the collagen with the foundation by placing the rod on the bead of foundation and spreading it downward to the bottom of the block. The final coating weight should be approximately 0.2 grams. This operation may need to be repeated to obtain the proper coating weight. Remove any material from the sides of the block.
• 4) Allow sample on collagen to dry. Drying times vary with different samples. Entire sample must be free from any wetness before testing. Measure color of sample on collagen for the initial baseline color using a spectrophometer or calorimeter. L*, a*, and b* designate the place of the colored object in a tri-dimensional space.
• 5) Place block with collagen face-up on the Gardner Abrasion Tester making sure that the block is in the tester. The soft side of Velcro is attached to the insult block to abrade or insult the foundation sample on the collagen. The insult block rubs back and forth across the foundation sample. One insult consists of one back and forth motion. Insult the foundation sample on the collagen 20 times. The machine can be stopped at certain intervals to measure the color.
• 6) After the foundation sample is insulted 20 times, the color is read as L*, a*, b* and the change in color, ΔE, is calculated (see equation below). The number of insults, coating weight, and repetitions can be changed to fit the needs of the material being tested. This is up to the discretion of the operator.

$\Delta L^{*},\Delta a^{*}\mathrm{and}\Delta b^{*}=\begin{array}{c}\mathrm{value}\mathrm{after}\mathrm{abrasion}-\\ \mathrm{value}\mathrm{at}\mathrm{initial}\mathrm{baseline}\mathrm{before}\mathrm{abrasion}.\end{array}$ $\Delta E={\left(\Delta L^2+\Delta a^{{*}^2}+\Delta b^{{*}^2}\right)}^{1/2}$

With larger ΔE's, more foundation was removed and therefore the foundation is less durable.

Claims

1. A siloxane resin composition obtained by mixing: A) a MQ resin comprising at least 80 mole % of siloxy units selected from (R13SiO1/2)a and (SiO4/2)b units, where R1 is independently an alkyl group having from 1 to 8 carbon atoms, an aryl group, a carbinol group, or an amino group, with the proviso that at least 95 mole % of the R1 groups are alkyl groups, a and b has a value greater than zero, and the ratio of a/b is 0.5 to 1.5;B) a propyl silsesquioxane resin comprising at least 80 mole % R3SiO3/2 units, where R3 is independently an alkyl group having from 1 to 8 carbon atoms, an aryl group, a carbinol group, or an amino group, with the proviso that at least 40 mole % of the R3 groups are propyl,and optionally;C) a volatile siloxane or organic solvent,wherein the weight ratio of component A to B is from 90:10 to 10:90.

2. A personal care product comprising the siloxane resin composition of claim 1.

3. The personal care product of claim 2, where the personal care product is a cosmetic product.

4. The personal care product of claim 2, where the personal care product is a hair care product.
