Self-adhesive cationic or amphoteric free-radical polymers and cosmetic use thereof

Description

[0001] The present invention relates to novel particular self-adhesive cationic or amphoteric polymers, obtained by free-radical polymerization, to the cosmetic use of these self-adhesive polymers, and also to cosmetic compositions, and in particular styling compositions, containing them.

[0002] Water-soluble cationic polymers, such as polymers based on dimethyldiallylammonium chloride, have been used for a long time in cosmetics, and in particular in haircare. The reason for this is that their good affinity (substantivity) for keratin substrates, and in particular their capacity to form continuous films around hairs, make them excellent candidates for protecting, enhancing and strengthening the hair or alternatively to aid in depositing and fixing other substances to keratin fibres.

[0003] However, on account of their high viscosity and their incompatibility with the majority of propellants, the polymers of this family are difficult to use in aerosol products such as lacquers.

[0004] The cationic polymers commonly used in haircare moreover have low self-adhesion, i.e. hair fibres surrounded with a coat of these cationic polymers adhere very little or not at all to each other.

[0005] The Applicant has discovered a novel family of particular cationic or amphoteric free-radical polymers with a high level of self-adhesion, which have sufficient substantivity and very good styling power. This combination of properties makes them particularly suitable for use in rinse-out styling compositions such as styling shampoos.

[0006] Needless to say, their use in leave-in styling products is also advantageous since these self-adhesive cationic or amphoteric polymers may then be used in markedly smaller amounts than the known cationic or amphoteric polymers or anionic or neutral self-adhesive polymers. The possibility of using the polymers of the present invention in small amounts facilitates their formulation and reduces the viscosity of the compositions obtained.

[0007] The self-adhesive cationic or amphoteric free-radical polymers of the present invention may also be used in cosmetic fields other than that of styling. Thus, the introduction of small amounts of these polymers into the majority of makeup products ensures good adhesion of the cosmetic deposits to the skin and gives them good cohesiveness and suppleness. The makeup does not crack and does not make the users' skin taut.

[0008] One subject of the invention is, consequently, cationic or amphoteric free-radical polymers having a self-adhesion value—expressed by the maximum tensile force (Fmax (in N)) recorded during the detachment by traction of two circular surfaces of 0.95 cm2, coated with polymer—of greater than 2 N and comprising one or more units derived from monomers chosen from those of formulae (Ia), (Ib), (Ic), (Id) and (Ie)

[0009] in which

[0010] R1 represents a hydrogen atom or a methyl group,

[0011] R2 represents a linear, branched, cycloaliphatic or aromatic C1-30 divalent hydrocarbon-based group, which may contain one or more hetero atoms chosen from O, N and P,

[0012] R3, R4 and R5 each independently represent a linear, branched, cycloaliphatic or aromatic C1-30 hydrocarbon-based group, which may contain one or more hetero atoms chosen from O, N and P,

[0013] X represents an oxygen atom or an NH group,

[0014] A− represents the counterion of the quaternary amine, preferably chosen from halide, sulphate, phosphate and carboxylate ions such as acetate,

[0015] in which

[0016] X, R1 and R2 have the meaning given for formulae (Ia) and (Ib), and

[0017] Ring+ represents a monocyclic or fused bicyclic, cycloaliphatic or aromatic system, comprising a tertiary or quaternary amine function, and possibly containing one or more additional hetero atoms chosen from O, N and P;

[0018] in which

[0019] R6 represents a hydrogen atom or a linear or branched C1-4 alkyl group,

[0020] R8 and R9 each independently represent a hydrogen atom or a linear or branched C1-4 alkyl group optionally bearing a COO−, SO3− or PO3H− group,

[0021] R7 and R1 0 each independently represent a divalent hydrocarbon-based group, in particular a group —(CH2)n with n being between 1 and 4 inclusive, optionally interrupted with an oxygen atom,

[0022] X is an oxygen atom or an NH group,

[0023] p and q are 0 or 1

[0024] Z represents a COO−, SO3− or PO3H− group,

[0025] in which R7 may form with R8, R9 or X, when the latter represents an NH group, an aromatic or non-aromatic 5-, 6- or 7-membered heterocycle;

[0026] in which

[0027] R11 represents a hydrogen atom or a methyl group,

[0028] R12 represents a divalent C1-4 hydrocarbon-based group,

[0029] X represents an oxygen atom or an NH group,

[0030] r is 0 or 1,

[0031] Ring+ represents a monocyclic or fused bicyclic, cycloaliphatic or aromatic system, comprising a tertiary or quaternary amine function, and possibly containing one or more additional hetero atoms chosen from O, N and P, and

[0032] Z represents a COO−, SO331 or PO3H− group.

[0033] A subject of the invention is also a cosmetic composition, and in particular a styling composition, containing, in a cosmetically acceptable medium, at least one such self-adhesive cationic or amphoteric free-radical polymer.

[0034] Finally, a subject of the invention is the cosmetic use of the novel self-adhesive cationic or amphoteric free-radical polymers described above, and in particular a process for treating keratin materials and a styling process using these polymers.

[0035] The self-adhesive nature of the cationic or amphoteric polymers of the present invention is assessed according to the following protocol.

[0036] 40 μl of an aqueous solution or dispersion containing 10% by weight of test polymer are deposited on the surface of two circular frosted-glass plates, each having a surface area of 0.95 cm2 (11 mm diameter). The plates are left to dry for 48 hours at ambient pressure, at a relative humidity of 55% and at a temperature of 22° C.

[0037] The two plates are mounted in a machine for measuring tensile strength (Lloyd LR5K) and are pressed together for 20 seconds with a force of 3 N. The two plates are then separated, under the same temperature and relative humidity conditions, for 30 seconds by imposing a traction speed of 20 mm/minute, and the force required for this displacement, and more particularly the maximum force (Fmax) in newtons (N) measured at the time of the sudden separation of the two polymer-coated surfaces, is recorded. Obviously, the self-adhesion of the polymers of the present invention is proportionately greater the larger the maximum force recorded.

[0038] The cationic or amphoteric self-adhesive free-radical polymers of the present invention have a self-adhesion value such that Fmax is greater than or equal to 2 N, preferably between 2 and 100 and in particular between 5 N and 100 N.

[0039] The self-adhesive cationic or amphoteric free-radical polymers of the present invention preferably have a glass transition temperature (Tg) of less than room temperature (20° C.), i.e. at room temperature, they are in plastic form rather than in vitreous form. The self-adhesion characteristics of the polymers of the present invention are particularly advantageous when the glass transition temperature is less than 0° C. and in particular less than −20° C.

[0040] When the cationic or amphoteric free-radical polymers of the present invention have several glass transition temperatures, the lowest Tg is preferably less than 20° C., in particular less than 0° C. and ideally less than −20° C.

[0041] The glass transition temperature of the polymers of the present invention is measured by Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) under the following conditions:

[0042] To measure the glass transition temperature, a film about 150 mm thick of test polymer is prepared by depositing an aqueous solution or dispersion of the polymer in a circular Teflon die 40 mm in diameter and leaving the deposit to dry. The film is dried in an oven at a temperature of about 23° C. under a relative humidity of 45%, until the weight no longer changes. About 5 to 15 mg of the film are taken up and placed in a crucible, which is then introduced into the analyser. The thermal analyser is a DSC-2920 model from the company TA Instruments. The initial and final temperatures of the temperature sweep are chosen so as to surround the desired glass transition temperature. The temperature sweep is performed at a rate of 10° C./minute.

[0043] This analysis is performed according to ASTM standard D 3418-97 apart from the above changes.

[0044] Examples of cationic ethylenic monomers defined by formulae (Ia) to (Ic) above that may be mentioned include dimethylaminoethyl (meth)acrylate, diethylaminoethyl (meth)acrylate, dimethylaminopropyl (meth)acrylate, dimethylaminoethyl(meth)acrylamide, dimethylaminopropyl(meth)acrylamide, N-morpholinoethyl (meth)acrylate, trimethylammonioethyl (meth)acrylate chloride, trimethylammoniopropyl (meth)acrylate chloride, trimethylammonioethyl(meth)acrylamide chloride, trimethylammoniopropyl(meth)acrylamide chloride and dimethylbenzylammonioethyl (meth)acrylate chloride.

[0045] As examples of amphoteric monomers of formula (Id) or (Ie) that are particularly preferred, mention may be made of 1-vinyl-2-(3-sulphopropyl)imidazolium hydroxide, 1-vinyl-3-(3-sulphopropyl)imidazolium, 1-vinyl-3-(4-sulphobutyl)imidazolium hydr-oxide, 1-vinyl-2-methyl-3-(4-sulphobutyl)imidazolium hydroxide, 2-vinyl-1-(3-sulphopropyl)pyridinium hydr-oxide, 2-methyl-5-vinyl-1-(3-sulphopropyl)pyridinium hydroxide, 4-vinyl-1-(3-sulphopropyl)pyridinium hydr-oxide, dimethyl(2-methacryloxyethyl) (3-sulphopropyl)ammonium hydroxide, diethyl(2-methacryloxyethoxy)-2-ethyl(3-sulphopropyl)-ammonium hydroxide, 4-vinyl-4-(sulphobutyl)pyridinium, N-(3-sulphopropyl)-N-methacrylamidopropyl-N,N-dimethylammonium hydroxide, N,N-dimethyl-N-(3-(methacrylamido)propyl)(3-sulphopro-pyl)ammonium hydroxide, N,N-dimethyl-N-(3-methacrylamidopropyl)-N-(3-carboxypropyl)ammonium hydroxide and N,N-dimethyl-N-(2-methacryloxyethyl)-N-(3-carboxypropyl)ammonium hydroxide.

[0046] Cationic comonomers that are most particularly preferred according to the invention are dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate (DMAEMA) and dimethylaminopropylmethacrylamide (DMAPMA).

[0047] The self-adhesive cationic or amphoteric polymers of the present invention preferably comprise—besides the units derived from cationic and/or amphoteric monomers—units derived from nonionic ethylenic monomers.

[0048] The Applicant has found that the self-adhesion properties of the polymers of the present invention are particularly advantageous when these nonionic monomers are chosen from those that form, when they are homopolymerized, polymers with a glass transition temperature of less than 0° C.

[0049] These nonionic comonomers are known in the art and may be described by formula (IIa) or (IIb):

[0050] in which

[0051] R13 represents a hydrogen atom or a methyl group,

[0052] X represents an oxygen atom or an NH group, and

[0053] R14 represents a linear, branched, cycloaliphatic or aromatic C2-60 hydrocarbon-based group, which may contain one or more atoms chosen from O, S and P, and especially an alkoxy-polyethylene glycol chain.

[0054] Among these nonionic comonomers optionally giving homopolymers with a Tg<0° C., the ones that are particularly preferred are ethyl, n-butyl, n-hexyl, 2-ethylhexyl, n-nonyl, lauryl, n-octadecyl, isooctyl, isodecyl, hydroxyethyl, hydroxypropyl and methoxyethyl acrylate, n-hexyl, 2-ethylhexyl, ethoxyethyl, isodecyl, methoxyethyl or C1-30 alkoxy-PEG (with 5 to 30 ethylene oxide units) methacrylate, vinyl propionate, and vinyl neoalkanoates such as vinyl neononanoate and vinyl neododecanoate.

[0055] Comonomers of this group that are particularly preferred include n-butyl acrylate, ethoxyethyl methacrylate, 2-ethylhexyl acrylate and methoxy-PEG methacrylate (with 5 to 30 ethylene oxide units).

[0056] The self-adhesive polymers of the present invention may also contain a small amount of highly hydrophobic nonionic monomers such as vinyl monomers containing a silicone side chain, chlorotrifluoroethylene, tetrafluoroethylene, and vinyl, allylic or (meth)acrylic monomers containing a perhalohydrocarbon and in particular a perfluorohydrocarbon side chain, such as perfluorohexyl (meth)acrylate or perfluorooctyl (meth)acrylate.

[0057] When the self-adhesive cationic or amphoteric polymers of the present invention consist both of cationic or amphoteric monomers and of nonionic monomers giving homopolymers with a Tg<0° C., the units derived from cationic or amphoteric ethylenic monomers represent from 1% to 50% by weight of the polymer and preferably from 1% to 20% by weight of polymer, and the units derived from nonionic ethylenic monomers giving homopolymers with a Tg<0° C. represent from 50% to 99% by weight of the polymer and preferably from 80% to 99% by weight of the polymer.

[0058] The self-adhesive polymers of the present invention may comprise—in addition to units derived from cationic or amphoteric monomers and units derived from nonionic monomers giving homopolymers with a Tg<0° C.—a certain proportion of anionic ethylenic comonomers.

[0059] These comonomers are ethylenic monomers bearing at least one carboxylic acid, sulphonic acid or phosphonic acid function.

[0060] They are chosen, for example, from acrylic acid, methacrylic acid, itaconic acid, crotonic acid, fumaric acid, maleic acid, vinylbenzoic acid, vinylbenzenesulphonic acid, acrylamidopropanesulphonic acid and vinylphosphonic acid, or from the addition salts with mineral or organic bases of these acids.

[0061] Introducing these anionic comonomers makes it possible to adjust the equilibrium of the charges, to modify the hydrophilic nature and thus the solubility of the polymers obtained, or to modify the compatibility of the polymers with certain cosmetic substrates or supports.

[0062] To ensure good affinity of the self-adhesive polymers of the present invention with cosmetic substrates, and in particular keratin fibres, it is generally desirable that the overall charge of the amphoteric polymers should be positive, i.e. that the total number of positive charges borne by the polymers should be greater than the number of negative charges.

[0063] Among the cationic or amphoteric free-radical copolymers described above, the Applicant has obtained particularly advantageous results with the following polymers:

[0064] copolymers of butyl acrylate and of dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate,

[0065] copolymers of butyl acrylate and of dimethylaminopropylmethacrylamide,

[0066] terpolymers of methoxy-PEG methacrylate (with 5 to 30 EO units), of dimethylaminopropylmethacrylamide and of ethoxyethyl methacrylate, and

[0067] terpolymers of 2-ethylhexyl acrylate, of dimethylaminopropylmethacrylamide and of ethoxyethyl methacrylate.

[0068] Although the molecular mass of the self-adhesive cationic or amphoteric polymers of the present invention is not a deciding factor for the present invention, polymers with a number-average molar mass of between 5 000 and 5 000 000 and preferably between 50 000 and 5 000 000 are preferably used.

[0069] The self-adhesive cationic or amphoteric polymers of the present invention may be water-soluble or water-insoluble. When they are water-insoluble, they are usually in the form of latices, i.e. in the form of dispersions of fine particles, with a mean size of between 3 nm and 600 nm and preferably between 5 nm and 400 nm, in an aqueous phase.

[0070] The water-insoluble dispersed forms of the polymers of the present invention are preferred since they do not have the high-viscosity problems of solutions and are easier to handle than solutions.

[0071] The self-adhesive cationic or amphoteric polymers of the present invention may be prepared by free-radical solution, bulk, dispersion or emulsion polymerization, which are familiar to those skilled in the art.

[0072] The positive charges of the polymers may be introduced by copolymerization of monomers containing a protonated tertiary amine function or containing a quaternary amine function, but the protonation or quaternization of the amine functions may also take place after polymerization.

[0073] The agents for protonating the amine functions of the self-adhesive polymers of the present invention are chosen from cosmetically acceptable organic and mineral acids such as hydrochloric acid, acetic acid, glycolic acid and succinic acid.

[0074] Alkylating agents are known compounds containing one or more alkyl chains and a suitable leaving group such as a halogen atom or a sulphate group. Examples that may be mentioned include C1-C30 alkyl halides such as methyl chloride, and dialkyl sulphates, for instance diethyl sulphate.

[0075] As mentioned above, the self-adhesive cationic or amphoteric polymers of the present invention may be used in cosmetics in the form of care or makeup compositions for the skin or the integuments, in particular in the form of care, makeup or fixing compositions for human keratin materials such as the hair and the eyelashes.

[0076] These cosmetic compositions preferably contain, in a cosmetically acceptable aqueous medium, from 0.01% to 40%, in particular from 0.05% to 20% and ideally from 0.1% to 10% by weight, of at least one self-adhesive cationic or amphoteric polymer of the present invention.

[0077] In one preferred embodiment of the present invention, the cosmetic compositions are styling compositions, and in particular rinse-out styling compositions, i.e. styling shampoos.

[0078] The cosmetically acceptable aqueous medium may contain various adjuvants and solvents commonly used in cosmetics, such as surfactants, anionic, amphoteric, zwitterionic or nonionic polymers, cationic polymers other than the cationic self-adhesive polymers of the present invention, nacreous agents and/or opacifiers, organic solvents, fragrances, mineral, plant and/or synthetic oils, fatty acid esters, pigments and colorants, silicones, mineral or organic particles, pH stabilizers, preserving agents and UV absorbers.

[0079] Among the cationic polymers that may be used in the compositions of the present invention, the ones that are preferred are quaternary cellulose ether derivatives such as the products sold under the name “JR 400” by the company Union Carbide Corporation, cyclopolymers, in particular homopolymers of diallyldimethylammonium salt and copolymers of diallyldimethylammonium salt and of acrylamide, in particular the chlorides, sold under the names “Merquat 100”, “Merquat 550” and “Merquat S” by the company Merck, cationic polysaccharides and more particularly guar gums modified with 2,3-epoxypropyltrimethylammonium chloride, sold, for example, under the name “Jaguar C13S” by the company Meyhall, optionally crosslinked homopolymers and copolymers of (meth)acryloyloxyethyltrimethylammonium salt, sold by the company Allied Colloids as a 50% solution in mineral oil, under the trade names Salcare SC92 (crosslinked copolymer of methacryloyloxyethyltrimethylammonium chloride and of acrylamide) and Salcare SC95 (crosslinked homopolymer of methacryloyloxyethyltrimethylammonium chloride).

[0107] The silicones that may be used as additives in the cosmetic compositions of the present invention are volatile or non-volatile, cyclic, linear or branched silicones, optionally modified with organic groups, having a viscosity from 5×106 to 2.5 m2/s at 25° C. and preferably 1×105 to 1 m2/s.

[0108] The silicones that may be used in accordance with the invention may be soluble or insoluble in the composition and in particular may be polyorganosiloxanes that are insoluble in the composition of the invention. They may be in the form of oils, waxes, resins or gums.

[0109] The organopolysiloxanes are defined in greater detail in Walter Noll's “Chemistry and Technology of Silicones” (1968), Academic Press. They can be volatile or non-volatile.

[0110] When they are volatile, the silicones are more particularly chosen from those having a boiling point of between 60° C. and 260° C., and even more particularly from:

[0111] (i) cyclic silicones containing from 3 to 7 and preferably 4 to 5 silicon atoms. These are, for example, octamethylcyclotetrasiloxane sold in particular under the name Volatile Silicone® 7207 by Union Carbide or Silbione® 70045 V 2 by Rhodia, decamethylcyclopentasiloxane sold under the name Volatile Silicone® 7158 by Union Carbide, and Silbione® 70045 V 5 by Rhodia, and mixtures thereof.

[0114] (ii) linear volatile silicones containing 2 to 9 silicon atoms and having a viscosity of less than or equal to 5×10−6 m2/s at 25° C. An example is decamethyltetrasiloxane sold in particular under the name SH 200 by the company Toray Silicone. Silicones belonging to this category are also described in the article published in Cosmetics and Toiletries, Vol. 91, Jan. 76, pp. 27-32, Todd & Byers “Volatile Silicone Fluids for Cosmetics”.

[0115] Non-volatile silicones, and more particularly polyalkylsiloxanes, polyarylsiloxanes, polyalkylarylsiloxanes, silicone gums and resins, polyorganosiloxanes modified with organofunctional groups, and mixtures thereof, are preferably used.

[0116] These silicones are more particularly chosen from polyalkylsiloxanes, among which mention may be made mainly of polydimethylsiloxanes containing trimethylsilyl end groups. The viscosity of the silicones is measured at 25° C. according to ASTM standard 445 Appendix C.

EXAMPLE 1

[0165] 85 g of butyl acrylate and 15 g of dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate (DMAEMA) are introduced into a reactor equipped with a stirring system, a condenser and a thermometer. The mixture is diluted with 100 g of tetrahydrofuran and 1 g of initiator (Trigonox® 21, sold by the company Akzo) is added. The resulting mixture is heated at the reflux point of the solvent for 6 hours.

[0166] GC chromatographic analysis of the polymer thus obtained is carried out in tetrahydrofuran (polystyrene calibration) on a sample of polymer purified by precipitation from water. The mass at the maximum elution peak is equal to 80 000.

[0167] 200 g of THF are added to the above solution, followed by addition of 1.06 g of HCl dissolved in 100 g of water, while maintaining vigorous stirring using an Ultra-Turrax machine. This amount of hydrochloric acid corresponds to the amount required to neutralize one third of the units derived from dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate, i.e. 0.029 mol per 100 g of polymer. After this step of partial neutralization, the tetrahydrofuran is evaporated off so as to obtain an aqueous dispersion of the polymer having a concentration of 20%. The size of the particles obtained, determined by light scattering using a Coulter N4SD machine, is 213 nm.

[0168] The maximum tensile force (Fmax (in N)) recorded during detachment by traction of two circular surfaces of 0.95 cm2, coated with this copolymer of butyl acrylate and of dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate, is 6.0 N.

EXAMPLE 2

[0169] 90 g of butyl acrylate and 10 q of dimethylaminopropylmethacrylamide (DMAPMA) are introduced into a reactor equipped with a stirring system, a condenser and a thermometer. The mixture is diluted with 100 g of tetrahydrofuran and 1 g of initiator (Trigonox® 21, sold by the company Akzo) is added. The resulting mixture is heated at the reflux point of the solvent for 6 hours.

[0170] GC chromatographic analysis of the polymer thus obtained is carried out in tetrahydrofuran (polystyrene calibration) on a sample of polymer purified by precipitation from water. The mass at the maximum elution peak is equal to 80 000.

[0171] 200 g of THF are added to the above solution, followed by addition of 2.33 g of HCl dissolved in 100 g of water, while maintaining vigorous stirring using an Ultra-Turrax machine. This amount of hydrochloric acid corresponds to the amount required to neutralize 100% of the units derived from DMAPMA, i.e. 0.064 mol per 100 g of polymer. After this step of neutralization, the tetrahydrofuran is evaporated off so as to obtain an aqueous dispersion of the polymer having a concentration of 20%. The average size of the particles obtained, determined by light scattering using a Coulter N4SD machine, is 18.6 nm.

[0172] The maximum tensile force (Fmax (in N)) recorded during detachment by traction of two circular surfaces of 0.95 cm2, coated with this copolymer of butyl acrylate and dimethylaminopropylmethacrylamide is, 11.4 N.
