This invention relates generally to aerosols and to methods and devices for delivering aerosols to the skin and/or hair of a person, including to antiperspirant compositions and other personal care compositions for delivery via aerosols of the powder suspension type suitable for spraying from a pressurized container.
Antiperspirant compositions normally contain an antiperspirant active compound which chemically suppresses the production of perspiration by sweat glands. One example of such a compound is aluminum chlorohydrate, which acts as an astringent to inhibit perspiration of the user. Such antiperspirant formulations can be applied to the skin using several different modes of application, including roll-on and stick forms. However, those skilled in the art will appreciate that applying an antiperspirant formulation in the form of an aerosol spray can have several advantages when applied on the skin.
For aerosol antiperspirant sprays, the antiperspirant active compound is usually suspended as an insoluble powder in a liquid carrier together with a non-aqueous liquefied volatile propellant in a pressurized aerosol container. The aerosol spray is produced by rapid transition of the propellant from the liquid to the vapor phase as it dispenses from the atomizing valve of the aerosol container. As a result, application of antiperspirant using an aerosol spray has gained wide acceptance for a number of reasons. Aerosol application of an antiperspirant active compound in the form of a dry powder suspended in the propellant is cosmetically desirable because the antiperspirant can be smoothly and effectively applied to the skin in a manner that feels dry and comfortable. Furthermore, because the antiperspirant powder does not dissolve in the liquefied propellant medium, the antiperspirant salt does not corrode ordinary metal aerosol cans.
One difficulty associated with antiperspirant aerosol sprays is that the delivery of small particles of antiperspirant active compound can pose some technical difficulties. For example, a finely divided spray can create difficulties in ensuring that a large proportion of the active components travel to, remain on and are absorbed by the skin of the user. This problem arises because the dry powder spray in many cases tends to form a wide dispersion or cloud, resulting in many of the active particles not hitting the target area. Also, even when the particles hit the target area, the relatively high energy imparted to the particles by the propellant can cause many particles to bounce off the skin of the user. In order to address these problems, it has been common practice to utilize an anhydrous liquid carrier component to disperse and/or suspend the active powder, and then fine droplets of the anhydrous carrier are able to travel to the target area in a more well-formed spray pattern, and the problem of dry particles bouncing off the user is greatly reduced. Certain silicone liquids have been heretofor developed for use as carrier fluids for the active ingredients in several personal care compositions, including in antiperspirant aerosol sprays. However, a need has developed to reduce or eliminate the use of the frequently used volatile silicone fluids “D-4,” which is octamethylcyclo-tetrasiloxane [(CH3)2SiO]4 and “D-5,” which is decamethylcyclopentasiloxane [(CH3)2SiO]5, in products which result in those liquids escaping into the biosphere. For example, see the publication by the Danish Ministry of the Environment has published a paper entitled “Siloxanes (D3, D4, D5, D6, HMDS) Evaluation of health hazards and proposal of a health-based quality criterion for ambient air Environmental Project No. 1531, 2014), which is incorporated herein by reference. Developing a substitute carrier liquid for the silicone liquids used for the active ingredients in personal care products, including antiperspirant aerosol spray products, represents significant technical challenges. For example, the substitute fluid must be able to effectively disperse and/or suspend the active compounds without deteriorating the effectiveness of the particles for the intended purpose, such as to prevent perspiration. In addition, the carrier fluid must satisfy a difficult-to-achieve combination of features, including the ability to remain as a fine, well-targeted spray as it travels to the skin of the user and at the same time contact the skin without imparting either an overly wet/oily feel or an overly dry feel. It is a difficult technical challenge to develop a new carrier fluid that is able to at once achieve this combination of features at the same level as has been achieved by the previously used silicone liquids.
