The present invention relates to a novel complex having emulsifying properties, and to a water-in-oil emulsified composition, and an oil-in-water emulsified composition.
As an emulsified composition for cosmetic materials, conventionally, cream, milky lotion, beauty essence, etc. in which various oily materials and aqueous materials are emulsified are widely used. In producing such an emulsified composition, in addition to processing materials under strictly set various conditions, it has been necessary to use a surfactant in order to ensure temporal stability of the emulsified composition. In recent years, however, even higher safety is expected for cosmetic materials, and from this viewpoint, presence of a surfactant may be a problem.
To solve such a problem, as a water-in-oil emulsified composition without using a surfactant, a water-in-oil emulsified composition which is characterized by comprising, for example, one or more kinds of oils selected from the group consisting of fatty acids and higher alcohols, one or more kinds of polymers soluble to said oils, and one or more kinds of compounds selected from the group consisting of inorganic salts, organic acid salts, amino acids and salts thereof, and not comprising a surfactant, has been proposed (Patent Document 1). However, PVP (polyvinylpyrrolidone) used as one of more kinds of oil-soluble polymers tends to exhibit stickiness, and there is a problem in feeling of use.
An emulsifier capable of providing a water-in-oil emulsion without using a surfactant, and having good feeling of use, has not yet been obtained.
Incidentally, a secondary amide including an amide alcohol has been studied as an agent imparting moisture resistance, and in a composition using this, formulation wherein a secondary amide is used together with a hydrophilic acrylic polymer (a carboxy group-containing polymer) as a thickener has been prepared (Patent Document 2). However, the secondary amide used in the emulsion prepared in this document does not contain an amide alcohol, and in the preparation method described in this document, no complex is formed, and the use of a common emulsifier (surfactant) is required in order to prepare an emulsified composition.
In view of the above-described problems in the prior art, an object of the present invention is to provide an agent and a complex exhibiting a water-in-oil type or oil-in-water type emulsifying power, without using a general emulsifier (surfactant). It is a further object of the present invention to provide a water-in-oil or oil-in-water emulsion utilizing such a water-in-oil type or oil-in-water type emulsifying power. Another object of the present invention is to provide an emulsifier capable of obtaining a water-in-oil or oil-in-water emulsion excellent in stability, and a stable water-in-oil or oil-in-water emulsion. Moreover, a further object of the present invention is to provide an emulsifier capable of obtaining a water-in-oil or oil-in-water emulsion excellent in feeling of use on the skin and hair, and a water-in-oil or oil-in-water emulsion having excellent feeling of use.
During extensive research to solve the above problems, the present inventors have discovered that emulsification is possible by using an amide alcohol and a polymer containing a carboxy group, and that emulsifying properties are enhanced by using a polyhydric alcohol; and as a result of further research, the inventors have completed the present invention.

In addition, in the present invention, “substantially free of surfactant” means that it comprises no surfactant at all or comprises a surfactant in an amount that is not emulsified. The amount that is not emulsified can be appropriately determined by a person skilled in the art according to the compositional ratio, for example, in one embodiment it is less than 2.0 mass %, in another embodiment it is less than 0.2 mass %, or less than 0.02 mass %.
In a particular embodiment of the invention, the conditioning composition is an emulsified composition substantially free of surfactant such as cationic surfactant.

In one embodiment of the present invention, in order to improve stability, the outer oil layer is oil-gelled with an oil gelling agent in the W/O emulsion, or the inner oil layer is oil-gelled with an oil gelling agent in the O/W emulsion.
As an ingredient used for oil-gelling, an organically modified clay mineral and/or a polymer ester of sugar and fatty acid can be used.
The organically modified clay mineral and the polymer ester of sugar and fatty acid used in the preparation of emulsions of the present invention are not particularly limited as long as they are ingredients generally used in cosmetics and the like.

The blending amount of the organically modified clay mineral in the W/O type emulsion can be appropriately adjusted depending on the kind and amount of the oily ingredient and the viscosity required for the emulsion, and is not particularly limited; it may be 0.5 to 8.0 mass %, preferably 0.7 to 6.0 mass %, more preferably 1.0 to 5.0 mass %.
The blending amount of the organically modified clay mineral in the O/W emulsion can be appropriately adjusted depending on the kind and amount of the oily ingredient and the viscosity required for the emulsion, and is not particularly limited; however, it may be 0.1 to 3.0 mass %, preferably 0.1 to 2.0 mass %, more preferably 0.1 to 1.0 mass %.

The blending amount of the polymer ester with sugar and fatty acid in the W/O emulsion can be appropriately adjusted depending on the kind and amount of the oily ingredient and the viscosity required for the emulsion, and is not particularly limited; it may be 0.5 to 8.0 mass %, preferably 0.7 to 6.0 mass %, more preferably 1.0 to 5.0 mass %.
The blending amount of the polymer ester with sugar and fatty acid in the O/W emulsion can be appropriately adjusted depending on the kind and amount of the oily ingredient and the viscosity required for the emulsion, and is not particularly limited; it may be 0.1 to 3.0 mass %, preferably 0.1 to 2.0 mass %, more preferably 0.1 to 1.0 mass %.
In addition, in one embodiment of the present invention, by blending a polyhydric alcohol such as pentylene glycol, octylene glycol etc., emulsifying properties as an emulsion can be further improved.
Without being bound by any theory, it is considered that improvement of emulsifying properties by blending a polyhydric alcohol is achieved by the formation of a complex by hydrogen bonding of a hydroxyl group in the molecule of the polyhydric alcohol and a carbonyl group of the amide bond in the amide alcohol molecule.
Accordingly, the present invention also provides a complex formed from an amide alcohol, a carboxy group-containing polymer, a higher fatty acid and a polyhydric alcohol.
It is to be noted that pentylene glycol has a moisturizing action and an antibacterial action, and it is a preferable ingredient for using emulsion as an external preparation such as cosmetics.
Specifically, pentylene glycol is commercially available under the following trade names: Diol PD (Kokyu Alcohol Kogyo Co., Ltd.) and Diol PD-V (Kokyu Alcohol Kogyo Co., Ltd.).
Specifically, octylene glycol is commercially available under the following trade name:
The blending amount of the ingredient (A) in the emulsion can be appropriately selected depending on the type and amount of the oil agent to be used and the viscosity required, etc., and it is typically 0.1 to 15.0 mass %, preferably 0.5 to 10.0% mass %, more preferably 1.0 to 8.0 mass %.
The blending amount of the ingredient (B) in the emulsion can be appropriately selected depending on the type and amount of the oil agent to be used, the viscosity required for the emulsified composition, etc. Typically, it is 0.01 to 5.0 mass %, preferably 0.05 to 3.0 mass %, more preferably 0.1 to 2.0 mass %.
By using the above blending amounts, an amount sufficient to obtain an emulsified composition having good usability and stability of the complex consisting of ingredient A and ingredient B in the present invention is realized.
In an emulsified composition, the ratio of wt % of amide alcohol (ingredient (A)) and carboxy group-containing polymer (ingredient (B)) in the emulsified composition is preferably amide alcohol/carboxy group-containing polymer=10 to 110, more preferably 15 to 100, still more preferably 20 to 80.
By using these ratios, the balance of hydrophilicity/hydrophobicity becomes suitable for emulsions, and it is possible to provide an emulsion with high stability having fine emulsion particles.
Furthermore, a higher fatty acid may be added to the emulsion. The blending amount of the higher fatty acid can be appropriately selected depending on the type and amount of the oil agent to be used, the viscosity required, etc., and it is typically 0.1 to 7.0 mass %, and more preferably 0.5 to 5.0 mass % in W/O type emulsions, and it is typically 0.1 to 3.0 mass %, and more preferably 0.1 to 2.0 mass % in O/W type emulsions.
By using the above blending amounts, the amounts suitable for obtaining an emulsified composition having good usability and stability of the water-in-oil type of complex consisting of the amide alcohol, carboxy group-containing polymer and higher fatty acid in the present invention are realized.
The pH of the emulsion of the present invention can be appropriately selected, and in the W/O type emulsion, it is preferably about pH 5.0 to 10.0, more preferably about pH 5.0 to 8.0; and in the O/W type emulsion, it is preferably about pH 5.0 to 8.0, more preferably about pH 5.0 to 7.0. Without being bound by any theory, it is considered that, by setting the pH within this range, the ingredient A and the ingredient B (and the higher fatty acid) are moderately hydrogen bonded to forma complex, and the dissociation of the carboxy group becomes moderate, leading to excellent emulsifying ability.
Viscosity of the emulsion of the present invention can be appropriately selected depending on the characteristics of objective products.
In one embodiment of the present invention, from the viewpoint of obtaining a creamy emulsion, it is preferable to have a viscosity higher than 10,000 mPa·s, and from the viewpoint of obtaining an emulsion in the form of milky lotion, it is preferable to have a viscosity of about 300 to 100,000 mPa·s.
In one embodiment of the present invention, from the viewpoint of using emulsion as a cosmetic material, the viscosity of the emulsion can be appropriately selected within the range of 300 to 1,000,000 mPa·s.
The present invention also provides an agent used for emulsification, containing an amide alcohol, a carboxy group-containing polymer, or a higher fatty acid. Such an agent can be used in the production of emulsions.
Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in more detail based on examples; however, the present invention is not limited to these examples, and various modifications can be made without departing from the technical idea of the present invention. In the present specification, unless otherwise specified, % means mass %.
Regarding the expression of emulsion particle size, “˜30(50)” means that it is on average 30 μm or less, but there are particles with a diameter of about 50 μm scattered in some places. Hereinafter, it is expressed in the same meaning.
As the ingredient A, an amide alcohol of formula (I) wherein R1 is unsaturated C18 alkyl (oleyl), R2 is H, R3 is C5, which has the following structure (1-4) is used.
In the present specification, the above amide alcohol is also referred to as “amide alcohol OLH”.
As the ingredient B, PEMULEN TR-2 ((acrylates/alkyl acrylate (C10-30)) crosspolymer) was used.
(1) to (4) were uniformly stirred and dissolved at 80° C. to obtain an aqueous phase. Meanwhile, (5) and (6) were uniformly stirred and dissolved at 80° C. to obtain an oil phase. The obtained aqueous phase and oil phase were mixed and uniformly dissolved, and the mixture was stirred at 80° C. with a disperser to prepare a mixture. While stirring the mixture, (7) was added to obtain a water-in-oil emulsified composition.
Observation was carried out using “BX-51” manufactured by Olympus Corporation at 400 times magnification, and the emulsion particle size of the emulsion after neutralization was respectively evaluated. The results are shown in
Viscosity was measured with Brookfield viscometer, using two types of SPINDLE S63 and S64 depending on the viscosity at a rotation speed of 12 rpm. The viscosity was 942,000 mPa·s. It can be said that an emulsion having a viscosity suitable for a creamy cosmetic composition, etc. can be provided.
In order to observe the emulsion of the basic formulation, the formulation (AMO-54) shown in the following Table 2 was prepared.
Amide alcohol, carboxy group-containing polymer and isostearic acid were measured with a Fourier transform infrared spectrometer (hereinafter referred to as FT-IR) using an infrared spectroscopic analyzer (Nicolet IS 10, manufactured by Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc.). Measurement results of the amide alcohol (OLH), carboxy group-containing polymer (trade name: PEMULEN TR-2 Polymer, Lubrizol Advanced Materials, Inc.), isostearic acid (trade name: Isostearic acid EX, Kokyu Alcohol Kogyo Co., Ltd.) and the WO emulsified composition according to the present invention (Example 2 (AMO-54, product dried for 2 weeks at normal temperature)) are shown in
Since O—H stretching (3300 to 2500 cm−1) and O—H bending (1000 to 850 cm−1), etc. by a water molecule mask the absorption of complex formation, natural drying of the WO emulsified composition was a treatment performed to eliminate the absorption by water molecules as much as possible.
From these results, it can be understood that the absorption spectrum of the complex is different from superimposed absorption spectra of the amide alcohol alone, carboxy group-containing polymer (trade name: PEMULEN TR-2 Polymer, Lubrizol Advanced Materials, Inc.), and isostearic acid (trade name: Isostearic acid EX, Kokyu Alcohol Kogyo Co., Ltd.).
In particular, in
Without being bound by any theory, it is believed that in both non-neutralized and neutralized states, nitrogen of the amide bond portion of the amide alcohol and the carboxy group of the carbomer forma hydrogen bond and exerts emulsifying ability.
Without being bound by any theory, it is considered as follows: in a non-neutralized state, the carboxy group of alkyl-modified carbomer and of isostearic acid becomes —COOH, forming a hydrogen bond with the carbonyl group of the amide bond of amide alcohol, and the complex is hydrophobic; when this complex is gradually neutralized, a part of the carboxy group is dissociated into COO− to regain hydrophilicity, and the complex becomes to have a hydrophobic part and a hydrophilic part and exerts a higher emulsifying ability.
Incidentally, Example 2 comprising isostearic acid provided a more stable W/O emulsion as compared with Example 1 not comprising isostearic acid. The emulsified state is shown in
It can be understood that even when isostearic acid is not used, a complex is formed with an amide alcohol and a carboxylic acid-containing polymer; however, by also using isostearic acid, a complex with higher hydrophilicity and higher W/O emulsifying ability is considered to be formed.
Emulsions of different formulations described in each table were prepared.
Example 3 and comparative formulation 3 were respectively prepared in the same manner as in Example 1, and the emulsion particle size and viscosity were measured. The emulsified state is shown in
In Comparative example 3 lacking an amide alcohol, although emulsifying properties immediately after production were observed, separation advanced soon and an emulsion could not be obtained. On the other hand, in Example 3 comprising an amide alcohol, an emulsion that is stable for a long term was obtained.
Example 4 was prepared in the same manner as in Example 1, and the emulsion particle size and viscosity were measured. The emulsified states before neutralization and after neutralization are shown in
Emulsifying properties were observed even before addition of a neutralizing agent, and more homogeneous emulsifying properties were obtained by adding a neutralizing agent.
In the same manner as in Example 1, Example 5A and Example 5B in which blending ratios of amide alcohol and carboxy group-containing polymer were different were respectively prepared, and the emulsion particle size and viscosity were measured. The emulsified state is shown in
In Example 4B having a high ratio of amide alcohol, an emulsion with larger emulsion particle size was obtained as compared with Example 4A. From this, it can be understood that the hydrophobicity becomes stronger by increasing the ratio of the amide alcohol, and the hydrophilicity becomes stronger as the proportion of the carboxy group-containing polymer becomes higher.
Example 6A (pentylene glycol blended) and Example 6B (without pentylene glycol) were respectively prepared in the same manner as in Example 1, and the emulsion particle size and viscosity were measured. The emulsified state is shown in
It can be understood that by blending pentylene glycol, an emulsion showing better emulsifying properties can be obtained.
Example 7A (nonpolar oil only), Example 7B (nonpolar oil+polar oil), and Example 7C (nonpolar oil+polar oil) were respectively prepared in the same manner as in Example 1, and the emulsion particle size and viscosity were measured. The emulsified state is shown in
It can be understood that as the ratio of the polar oil increases, the emulsion particle size increases, that is, as the proportion of the nonpolar oil increases, a more stable emulsion can be obtained.
In each of the above examples, the final emulsified composition was prepared by stirring and emulsifying the aqueous phase and the oil phase, then neutralizing by adding a neutralizing agent, and further stirring; here, differences in the emulsified states were examined between the following two processes: a process same as above in which a neutralizing agent is added after emulsification (hereinafter referred to as post-addition), and a process in which an aqueous phase containing a carboxyl-containing polymer is neutralized with an alkali, an oil phase is added thereto, then it is stirred and emulsified to prepare an emulsion (hereinafter referred to as pre-addition).
The emulsion particle size and viscosity were measured in the same manner as in Example 1. The emulsified state is shown in
Although slight differences were observed in the emulsified states due to the difference in the timing of addition of a neutralizing agent, it is understood that a favorable W/O emulsion can be prepared by any of the methods of pre-addition and post-addition.
