Description
TECHNICAL FIELD

The present invention relates to solid hair detergent compositions. More specifically, the present invention relates to a solid hair detergent composition that achieves both the handleability of the agent when used and the crack suppression property during storage.


BACKGROUND ART

A hair detergent composition generally contains a surfactant such as an anionic surfactant and an amphoteric surfactant that exhibit detergency and lathering power, and a thickener that increases the viscosity of the composition. According to Non-Patent Document 1, by blending a cationic polymer in a hair detergent composition, the anionic surfactant and the cationic polymer form a coacervate, and the coacervate improves the feeling of use in shampoo rinsing.


The coacervate technology has been applied to a variety of hair detergent compositions. For example, Patent Document 1 discloses an aqueous hair detergent containing an anionic surfactant, a predetermined cationized hydroxypropyl cellulose, and a predetermined monoalkyl glyceryl ether or monoalkenyl glyceryl ether. Patent Document 2 discloses a hair detergent composition containing an anionic surfactant, an amphoteric surfactant, a cationic polymer, and a predetermined polyoxyalkylene alkylamine. Further, Patent Document 3 discloses a shampoo composition containing an N-long chain acyl glutamate, an amphoteric surfactant, a water-soluble polymer having cationic dissociation, and polyoxyalkylene fatty acid monoisopropanolamide, and having a pH of 4.0 to 6.0 at 25° C.


Meanwhile, solid hair detergent compositions (shampoo bar, solid shampoo) have been drawing attention recently from the viewpoint of environmental problems of plastics and the like. Solid hair detergent compositions are marketed as commercial products in Non-Patent Document 2, Non-Patent Document 3, etc., and are designed using surfactants such as sodium cocoyl isethionate, sodium cocoalkyl sulfate, and sodium sulfosuccinate.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
Problems to be Solved by the Invention

As for solid skin detergent compositions for cleansing faces and whole bodies which are generally widespread, an appropriate small amount of agent can be easily taken by rolling the solid agent on a hand when a relatively narrow surface area such as a face is washed, and an appropriate relatively large amount of agent can be easily taken by rubbing the solid agent against a tool having surface irregularities such as a sponge or a towel when a wide surface area such as a body is washed. Such usages are widespread.


On the other hand, as for solid hair detergent compositions, it is difficult to take an appropriate amount of agent for a large surface area to be washed due to its properties. For example, when the solid agent is rolled on a hand to take the agent, it takes time to collect the required amount of the agent. A method of directly rubbing the solid agent against hair is conceivable. However, it is difficult to see the adhered agent and to control the amount of the agent to be taken. If the rubbing force is too strong, the detergent may remain on the hair in a solid state even after rinsing. For the conventional solid hair detergent compositions, no consideration has been given regarding the handleability of the agent (the property that a sufficient amount of the agent necessary for hair cleansing can be efficiently taken out of the solid detergent by hand).


The inventor of the present invention has studied compositions for improving the handleability of the agent from solid hair detergent compositions. When the handleability of the agent when used is improved, a problem arises in that the solid agent itself easily cracks during storage, and its storage stability is deteriorated.


An object of the present invention is to provide a solid hair detergent composition that achieves both the handleability of the agent when used and the crack suppression property during storage.


Means for Solving the Problem

As a result of intensive studies, the inventor of the present invention has found that both the handleability of the agent when used and the crack suppression property during storage can be achieved by blending cationized guar gum in a solid hair detergent composition containing an alkali metal cocoyl isethionate salt and water. The present invention has been completed by further conducting studies based on this finding.

    • Sodium lauroyl glutamate: Aminosurfact ALMS-P1 (Asahi Kasei Finechem Co., Ltd.)
    • Sodium lauroyl aspartate: AminoFoamer FLMS-P1 (Asahi Kasei Finechem Co., Ltd.)
    • Guar hydroxypropyltrimonium chloride: CATINAL CG-100LD (TOHO Chemical Industry Co., Ltd.)
    • Polyquatemium-10: POIZ C-150L (Kao Corporation)
    • Polyquatemium-22: Merquat 295 (Lubrizol Japan Limited), cation density 6.0 meq/g, weight average molecular weight 190,000
    • Coconut oil fatty acid: component in PUREACT I-78
    • Sodium Isethionate: component in PUREACT I-78


The obtained solid hair detergent compositions were evaluated as follows for the handleability when used, crack suppression property during storage, moldability, lathering, and smoothness in rinsing. The results are shown in Table 1.


Handleability of Agent When Used

Each solid hair detergent composition was thoroughly wetted with 100 g of water, and after cutting off water droplets, the solid hair detergent composition was rubbed back and forth for 5 times on a palm, and the amount of the agent transferred to the hand was evaluated on a scale of 1 to 10, in which 10 points were given to the amount of the agent in the case of the solid hair detergent composition of Example 4, and 1 point was given to the amount of the agent in the case of the solid hair detergent composition of Comparative Example 1. It is determined that the higher the score is, the more excellent the handleability of the agent when used is. When the score was 6 points or more, it was determined that the desired handleability was achieved.


Crack Suppression Property During Storage

Each solid hair detergent composition was immersed in water having a temperature of 5° C. for 2 hours, then taken out from the water, and allowed to stand in an environment having a temperature of 5° C. and a humidity of 30% RH for 1 day. Thereafter, the crack density (ratio of the area of cracks to the surface area of the solid hair detergent composition) in the solid hair detergent composition was evaluated on a scale of 1 to 10, in which 10 points were given to the case where there was no crack, and 1 point was given to the case where the composition had cracks to the degree of the crack density of the solid hair detergent composition of Comparative Example 2 (many large cracks occurred). It is determined that the larger the score is, the better the crack suppression property during storage is. When the score was 5 points or more, it was determined that there was no problem as an actual product with respect to the crack suppression property during storage.


Moldability

The difference between the shape of each solid hair detergent composition and the shape of the mold and the degree of the difference were evaluated. Specifically, the degree of divergence from the mold shape was evaluated on a scale of 1 to 5, in which 5 points were given to the case where the shape of the solid hair detergent composition was molded according to the shape of the mold and there was no divergence from the mold shape (neither indentation nor chipping was observed), and 1 point was given to the case where the composition had a divergence from the mold shape due to indentation and/or chipping to the degree of the divergence found in the solid hair detergent composition of Comparative Example 1. It is determined that the larger the score is, the more excellent the moldability is, and the more excellent the beauty of the appearance of the solid hair detergent composition is.


Lathering

A lathering operation was performed on 0.5 g of each solid hair detergent composition in the palm of a hand for 10 seconds using 100 g of water. The amount of the lather produced by the lathering operation was evaluated on a scale of 1 to 10, in which 10 points were given to the amount of the lather produced by the solid hair detergent composition of Example 13, and 1 point was given to the case where lather was not produced. It is determined that the higher the score is, the more excellent in lathering the solid hair detergent composition is.


Smoothness in Rinsing

Hair was washed with 1.0 g of each solid hair detergent composition and rinsed with hot water (38° C.). Smoothness of the hair in rinsing was evaluated on a scale of 1 to 10, in which 10 points (very smooth) were given to the solid hair detergent composition of Example 4, and 1 point (coarse) was given to the solid hair detergent composition of Comparative Example 2. It is determined that the higher the score is, the better the smoothness of the solid hair detergent composition in rinsing is.
