The present invention relates to a cosmetic. In particular, the present invention relates to a powder treatment agent comprising a sugar alcohol-modified organopolysiloxane, a powder surface-treated with the aforementioned powder treatment agent, and a cosmetic raw material and cosmetic comprising the same.
Various types of powders represented by white and colored pigments such as titanium oxide, zinc oxide, red iron oxide and the like, as well as those represented by extender pigments such as mica, sericite and the like have been widely used in the field of various cosmetics such as a sunscreen, a nail color, a nail coating, a foundation, a mascara, an eye liner and the like, as well as skin care cosmetics. However, in untreated powders, clumping easily occurs due to caused by charges and polarities of the surface of the powders, trace amounts of impurities, and the like. For this reason, in order to improve a dispersing property and stability of powders in a cosmetic, and in order to improve feeling on touch, water resistance, sebum resistance of a cosmetic containing powders, and the like, use of powders which are subjected to various surface treatments has been carried out.
As the aforementioned surface treatments, a lipophilic treatment using an oil agent, a metal soap or the like, a hydrophilic treatment using a surfactant, a water-soluble polymer or the like, a hydrophobic treatment using a silicone compound, a silica treatment, an alumina treatment and the like have been known. In particular, recently, a surface treatment with a silicone compound having a reactive moiety in a molecule is carried out in many cases. The aforementioned reactive moiety forms a chemical bond with the surface of powders, and for this reason, the surface treatment with the aforementioned silicone compound is effective in view of modification of the surface of powders and at the same time, blocking a surface activity of the powders. In addition, the surface treatment can be reliably carried out, and for this reason, even in the case of blending the surface-treated powders in a cosmetic containing a solvent, the surface treatment agent is not removed from the surface of the powders. In addition, changes in the properties of powders caused by the surface treatment, can be minimized. As examples of the aforementioned surface treatments, mention may be made of, for example, a method in which a surface treatment of powders is carried out with a methylhydrogenpolysiloxane (JP-B-2719303). However, in the aforementioned methods, an unreacted Si—H group remains in powders even after the surface treatment is carried out. Therefore, in the case of blending the surface-treated powders in a cosmetic, there may be a problem such as generation of a hydrogen gas caused by a specific component blended in the cosmetic in some cases.
On the other hand, a method for producing a dispersion of powders using an organopolysiloxane modified with a hydrophilic group which is compatible with the surface of the powders has been proposed. For example, a method in which a polyether-modified silicone is used as a dispersion auxiliary agent of powders has been proposed (JP-A-H10-167946). However, the effects of dispersing the powders are not sufficient. For this reason, there is a problem in that the viscosity of a dispersion of powders obtained by dispersing powders in an oil agent such as a silicone oil generally increases over time, and fluidity is impaired.
In addition, a method in which an organopolysiloxane modified with a polyhydric alcohol such as a (poly)glycerol is used as a hydrophilic group has been proposed (JP-A-2002-38013). However, the dispersing property of the powders in the dispersion is not sufficient, and there is a problem in fluidity of the dispersion obtained as a result.
In addition, an organopolysiloxane modified with a sugar as a hydrophilic group, and an application thereof to a cosmetic have been proposed (JP-A-H05-186596, JP-A-2002-119840 and JP-A-2008-274241). However, an application thereof to a powder treatment has not been disclosed at all therein.
The present invention has been made in view of the circumstances of the aforementioned prior art. The objective of the present invention is to provide a surface treatment agent which is safe with no generation of hydrogen, can be suitably used in a surface treatment of powders, can exhibit good compatibility with other raw materials of cosmetics, and therefore, can improve dispersing properties and stability of powders contained in a cosmetic, and in addition, can provide good water resistance, good sebum resistance, good glossiness, good feeling on touch, good adhesive properties, and the like to a cosmetic, as well as to provide a powder which has been subjected to a surface treatment with the aforementioned powder treatment agent, and a cosmetic raw material and a cosmetic which can be produced by blending them, can exhibit superior storage stability, can have a superior outer appearance, and can exhibit a superior sensation during use.

The unsaturated organic group is not particularly restricted as long as the organic group has an unsaturated group. A substituted or non-substituted, and linear or branched, unsaturated hydrocarbon group having 3 to 5 carbon atoms is preferred. As examples of unsaturated hydrocarbon groups having 3 to 5 carbon atoms, mention may be made of alkenyl groups such as a vinyl group, an allyl group, a butenyl group and the like. An allyl group is preferred.

In addition, in order to obtain the aforementioned sugar alcohol-modified organopolysiloxane, a derivative of a sugar alcohol compound (a ketal compound), in which a hydroxyl group of the sugar alcohol compound corresponding to a sugar alcohol-modified group to be introduced is protected by a ketalizing agent such as 2,2-dimethoxypropane or the like in the presence of an acid catalyst, can also be used as a raw material. More particularly, a ketal derivative of the sugar alcohol having a carbon-carbon double bond in the molecule, which is obtained by purifying a reaction product between the aforementioned ketal compound and an alkenyl halide, is subjected to an addition reaction with an organopolysiloxane having silicon-hydrogen bonds. After the addition reaction, a de-ketalization reaction can be carried out by means of an acid hydrolysis treatment to deprotect the hydroxyl group. Thereby, the aforementioned sugar alcohol-modified organopolysiloxane according to the present invention can also be produced. Even by the aforementioned method using the aforementioned ketal derivative, after deprotection, the sugar alcohol-modified organopolysiloxane can be obtained. For this reason, any one of the preparation methods may be selected in accordance with the desirable yield or the conditions such as production facilities, purification of raw materials and the like. In addition, in order to improve a quality such as purity or a desirable property of the sugar alcohol-modified organopolysiloxane according to the present invention, any one of the preparation methods may be selected.
In order to improve the miscibility of the components in a cosmetic and improve feeling on touch thereof, during, before or after the aforementioned reaction, a different type of functional group may be introduced in an organopolysiloxane having a silicon-hydrogen bond by means of an addition reaction, and thereby, co-modification can be carried out. This is preferred. For example, the aforementioned co-modified product can be suitably produced by reacting together with an organohydrogensiloxane having silicon-binding hydrogen atoms at the side chain(s) and/or at the terminal(s) under the condition in at least which a sugar alcohol monoallyl ether having a carbon-carbon double bond in a molecule and a precursor compound of a functional group having one reactive unsaturated group in one molecule are co-present.
The hydrosilylation reaction is preferably carried out in the presence of a catalyst. As examples of the catalyst, mention may be made of a compound such as platinum, ruthenium, rhodium, palladium, osmium, iridium or the like. A platinum compound is, in particular, effective since the catalytic activity thereof is high. As examples of platinum compounds, mention may be made of chloroplatinic acid; platinum metal; a platinum metal-supported carrier such as platinum-supported alumina, platinum-supported silica, platinum-supported carbon black or the like; and a platinum complex such as platinum-vinylsiloxane complex, platinum phosphine complex, platinum-phosphite complex, platinum alcholate catalyst or the like. The usage amount of the catalyst may range from 0.5 to 1,000 ppm as a platinum metal in the case of using a platinum catalyst.
In addition, the aforementioned sugar alcohol-modified organopolysiloxane may be subjected to a hydrogenation treatment in order to ameliorate odor after the reaction due to the residual unsaturated compound. For the hydrogenation treatment, there are a method using a pressurized hydrogen gas and a method using a hydrogen adding agent such as a metal hydride or the like. In addition, in the aforementioned hydrogenation treatment, there are a homogeneous reaction and a heterogeneous reaction. One of these reactions can also be carried out, or the reactions can also be carried out in combination. Considering an advantage in that the used catalyst does not remain in a product, a heterogeneous catalytic hydrogenation reaction using a solid catalyst is most preferable.
As the solid catalyst (hydrogenation catalyst), a common noble metal-based catalyst such as a platinum-based catalyst, a palladium-based catalyst or the like, and a nickel-based catalyst can be used. More particular, as examples thereof, mention may be made of an elemental substance such as nickel, palladium, platinum, rhodium, cobalt or the like, and a catalyst of a combination of plural metals such as platinum-palladium, nickel-copper-chromium, nickel-copper-zinc, nickel-tungsten, nickel-molybdenum or the like. As examples of a catalyst carrier optionally used, mention may be made of activated carbon, silica, silica alumina, alumina, zeolite and the like. In addition, a copper-containing hydrogenation catalyst such as Cu—Cr, Cu—Zn, Cu—Si, Cu—Fe—Al, Cu—Zn—Ti and the like may be mentioned. The form of the aforementioned hydrogenation catalyst cannot be completely determined since the form may vary depending on the type of reactor, and can be appropriately selected from powders, granules, tablets and the like. In addition, the platinum catalyst used in the synthesis step (hydrosilylation reaction) can also be used as it is. The aforementioned hydrogenation catalyst can be used alone or in combination with two or more types thereof.
The hydrogenation treatment can also be used in order to purify a crude product of the sugar alcohol-modified organopolysiloxane obtained by the aforementioned addition reaction. More particularly, the aforementioned purification can be carried out by deodoration due to the hydrogenation treatment in a solvent or without a solvent in the presence of a hydrogenation catalyst. The aforementioned purified product can preferably be used in a cosmetic in which reduction of odor and miscibility with other cosmetic components are desired. In addition, as the pre-step or post-step of the aforementioned deodoration, a stripping treatment in which light products are removed by distillation by contacting a nitrogen gas with respect to a crude product or a hydrogenated product of a sugar alcohol-modified organopolysiloxane can preferably be carried out.
Alternatively, the odor of the crude product of the sugar alcohol-modified organopolysiloxane obtained by the aforementioned addition reaction can also be easily reduced by carrying out a stripping step in which light products are removed by distillation by contacting a nitrogen gas after an unreacted unsaturated product is hydrolyzed by adding an acid substance.
In the aforementioned hydrogenation treatment, acid treatment, and stripping treatment, solvents, reaction conditions, pressure-reduction conditions and the like used in purification of conventional organopolysiloxane copolymers or polyether-modified silicones can be applied and selected without any restrictions.
In order to adjust the dispersing properties and viscosity as a powder treatment agent and/or a powder-surface treatment agent, two or more types of the aforementioned sugar alcohol-modified organopolysiloxanes having different modification indexes, having different lengths of the polysiloxane chain, or having different binding sites (side chain/terminal) can be used in different rates together therewith.

As the powders, silicone elastomer powders can be used. The silicone elastomer powder is a crosslinked product of a linear diorganopolysiloxane mainly formed from a diorganosiloxane unit (D unit). The silicone elastomer powder can be preferably produced by crosslink-reacting an organohydrogenpolysiloxane having a silicon-binding hydrogen atom at the side chain or the terminal and a diorganopolysiloxane having an unsaturated hydrocarbon group such as an alkenyl group or the like at the side chain or the terminal, in the presence of a catalyst for a hydrosilylation reaction. The silicone elastomer powder has an increased flexibility and elasticity, and exhibits a superior oil-absorbing property, as compared with a silicone resin powder formed from T units and Q units. For this reason, the silicone elastomer powder absorbs sebum on the skin and can prevent makeup running. In addition, when a surface treatment is carried out by the aforementioned sugar alcohol-modified organopolysiloxane, a moisturized feeling on touch can be imparted without reducing a suede-like feeling on touch of the silicone elastomer powder.

As one example, the aforementioned crosslinking organopolysiloxane can be obtained by addition-reacting an organohydrogenpolysiloxane which is formed from a structure unit selected from the group consisting of a SiO2 unit, a HSiO1.5 unit, a RbSiO1.5 unit, a RbHSiO unit, a Rb2SiO unit, a Rb3SiO0.5 unit and a Rb2HSiO0.5 unit, wherein Rb is a substituted or non-substituted monovalent hydrocarbon group having 1 to 30 carbon atoms, excluding an aliphatic unsaturated group, and a part of Rb is a monovalent hydrocarbon group having 8 to 30 carbon atoms, and at the same time, includes 1.5 or more, on average, of hydrogen atoms binding to the silicon atom in the molecule, with a crosslinking component selected from the group consisting of a polyoxyalkylene compound having unsaturated hydrocarbon groups at both terminals of the molecular chain, a polyether compound such as a polyglycerol compound, a polyglycidyl ether compound or the like, an unsaturated hydrocarbon which is an α,ω-diene represented by the following general formula: CH2═CH—CrH2r—CH═CH2, wherein r is an integer ranging from 0 to 26, and an organopolysiloxane which is formed from a SiO2 unit, a (CH2═CH)SiO1.5 unit, a RcSiO1.5 unit, a Rc(CH2═CH)SiO unit, a Rc2SiO unit, a Rc3SiO0.5, and a Rc2(CH2═CH)SiO0.5, wherein Rc is a substituted or non-substituted monovalent hydrocarbon group having 1 to 30 carbon atoms, excluding an aliphatic unsaturated group, and includes 1.5 or more, on average, of vinyl groups binding to the silicon atom in a molecule. The aforementioned modifying functional group can be introduced by carrying out an addition reaction with respect to the unreacted hydrogen atoms binding to the silicon atom. For example, 1-hexene is reacted with a crosslinking organopolysiloxane having an unreacted hydrogen atom binding to the silicon atom, and thereby, a hexyl group which is an alkyl group having 6 carbon atoms can be introduced thereinto.
The aforementioned crosslinking organopolysiloxanes can be used without restrictions of physical modes and preparation methods such as dilution, properties and the like. As particularly preferable examples thereof, mention may be made of α,ω-diene crosslinking silicone elastomers (as commercially available products, DC 9040 Silicone Elastomer Blend, DC 9041 Silicone Elastomer Blend, DC 9045 Silicone Elastomer Blend, and DC 9046 Silicone Elastomer Blend, manufactured by Dow Corning Corporation in the USA) described in U.S. Pat.

For this reason, there is an advantage in that a uniform emulsification system can be formed.
On the other hand, in the case of blending a non-emulsifiable crosslinking organopolysiloxane formed by crosslinking by means of an unsaturated hydrocarbon group such as a diene or an organopolysiloxane in a cosmetic as a component, an adhesive sensation to the skin can be improved. In addition, there is an advantage in that good compatibility with other oil agents can be exhibited, and the whole oil system can be uniformly and stably blended in the cosmetic.

The silicone gum is a linear diorganopolysiloxane having an ultra-high degree of polymerization, and is also referred to as a silicone raw rubber or an organopolysiloxane gum. The silicone raw rubber possesses a high degree of polymerization, and for this reason, it has a measurable degree of plasticity. In view of this, the silicone gum is different from the aforementioned oil silicones. The aforementioned silicone gum can be blended in the cosmetic according to the present invention as it is, or as a liquid gum dispersion (an oil dispersion of the silicone gum) in which the silicone gum is dispersed in an oil silicone.

In addition, in the present invention, the silicone gum can be used alone or in combination with two or more types thereof, as necessary.
The silicone gum has an ultra-high degree of polymerization. For this reason, the silicone gum can exhibit a superior retention property on hair or skin, and can form a protective film with a superior aeration property. For this reason, the silicone gum is a component which can particularly provide glossiness and luster on hair and can impart a texture with tension on the entire hair during use and after use.
The blending amount of the silicone gum may range from 0.05 to 30% by weight (mass) and may preferably range from 1 to 15% by weight (mass), with respect to the total amount of the cosmetic. When the silicone gum is used as an emulsion composition prepared via a step of preliminarily emulsifying (including emulsion polymerization), the silicone gum can be easily blended, and can stably be blended in the cosmetic of the present invention. If the blending amount of the silicone gum is below the aforementioned lower limit, an effect of imparting specific feeling on touch or glossiness with respect to hair may be insufficient.
