Patent Application
20120093896
The present invention relates to the use of a nanodispersion which comprises (a) a membrane-forming molecule, (b) a coemulsifier, (c) a lipophilic component, and (d) a water-soluble ingredient sensitive to oxidation, like for example ascorbic acid, in cosmetic end formulations such as for example sticks, gels, creams, lotions, milks, sprays, aerosols, foams, pastes, powders, lacquers pellets or make-ups.
Cosmetic preparations comprise, in addition to the basic substances responsible for forming the cosmetic formulations, other functional active agents. These are added to the cosmetic base formulations and are used, for example, for treatment, protection, colouring, cleansing, disinfection, for moisturising skin and for regenerating and activating skin or hair.
It is an object of the present invention to improve the stability of water-soluble ingredients against its own degradation/decomposition which is induced by oxygenous environment and also by water.
A preferred embodiment of this invention is based on ascorbic acid. Numerous patents and publications teach various ways of stabilizing ascorbic acid.
For example, EP-A-0 729 746 discloses an ascorbic acid delivery system comprising a two compartment kit. The first compartment is an anhydrous solution of ascorbic acid dissolved in a nonaqueous polar solvent such as a polyol. The second compartment is an alkaline aqueous solution. The contents of the two compartments are mixed immediately prior to use. The more alkaline aqueous solution increases the pH of the anhydrous ascorbic acid containing solution to provide a composition which does not tingle the skin.
U.S. Pat. No. 5,350,773 discloses stable liquid products used for liquid human and animal food. The compositions are in the form of anhydrous emulsions containing a nonpolar fatty material as the dispersed phase and a polar non aqueous solvent as the continuous phase.
U.S. Pat. No. 5,427,814 discloses a method for protecting a fat against oxidation by mixing ascorbic acid into apolar solvent, and adding the mixture to a heated mixture of tocopherol and lecithin.
U.S. Pat. No. 5,308,621 discloses a method for transdermal administration of ascorbic acid. Fine particulate ascorbic acid is suspended in a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier such as a polyol.
EP-A-0 755 674 discloses a stabilized ascorbic acid composition which contains a minimum level of water, in addition to a polyol and oil.
U.S. Pat. No. 5,587,149 discloses an ascorbic acid emulsion composition comprising ascorbic acid solubilised in a polyol as the dispersed phase and oil as the continuous phase.
However, none of the above patents teach a stable anhydrous ascorbic acid containing composition suitable for cosmetic application where high levels of ascorbic acid are solubilised in the composition and remain stable over a long period of time.
The present invention therefore provides the use a nanodispersion, which comprises
Preferably, component (d) is ascorbic acid or vitamin C.
Of interest is the use of a nanodispersion wherein the non-aqueous polar organic solvents are polyols, homopolymeric or block copolymeric liquid ethers.
Preferably, step (α) is carried out in anhydrous medium; and step (β) is carried out without homogenisation.
Most preferably, the particles in the nanodispersion have an average diameter of <100 nm.
A preferred embodiment of this invention is the combination of the water-solube active ingredient, for example ascorbic acid, with another antioxidant [component (e)].
Preferably, component (e) is selected from the group consisting of carbon bridged hindered phenols, ester bridged hindered phenols, amide bridged hindered phenols, lactones of hindered phenoles, sterically hindered oxylamines and sterically hindered hydroxylamines.
Preferred antioxidants [component (e)] are compounds of formulae (1), (2) and/or (3)
and acid addition salts thereof,
wherein in formulae (1), (2) and (3)
—CmH2m—NH; a radical of formula
or a radical of
formula (1c)
or G3 is propyl substituted by OH and/or by C2-C22alkanoyloxy;
or —S—; or G3 is propyl substituted by OH or C2-C22alkanoyloxy;
if
if
Most preferably, component (e) is a compound of the formula A or B
wherein M is hydrogen or sodium.
These two compounds of the formula A and B are commercially available by Ciba Specialty Chemicals Inc. Tinogard AO6® is the compound of the formula A. Tinogard TT® is the compound of the formula B.
Optionally, further hydrophilic or lipophilic antioxants can be used.
Examples of such further hydrophilic or lipophilic antioxidants are:
H(CH2)n(CHR)COOH (1)
CH3(CH2)mCH═CH(CH2)nCOOH (2)
H(CH2)n(CHR)COOH (3)
CH3(CH2)mCH═CH(CH2)nCOOH (4)
Preferably, the further hydrophylic or lipophilic antioxidants are selected from the group consisting of tocopherols and its ester of acids, tocotrienol and its ester of acids, ascorbic acid esters, retinoids, carotenoids, glutathione peroxidise, catalase, superoxide dismutase, ubiquinone and idebenone, lipoic acid and its derivatives, rutinic acid and its derivatives, phenolic acids, flavonoids and polyphenols, chlorogenic acid and ferulic acid.
Preferably, the weight ratio between component (e) [further hydrophylic or lipophilic antioxidant] and component (d) [water-soluble ingredient such as for example ascorbic acid] is from 1:100 to 10:1.
In order for these substances to have an effect at the desired site, they must be transported to the respective site, for example to the skin surface, mucosae, nails, dental enamel or hair, but also to the epidermal and dermal areas of the skin, by means of so-called carrier and transport vehicles (carrier systems). For this purpose, many cosmetic active agents, for example water-soluble vitamins, the amino acid group or the water-soluble melanines, are encapsulated in liposomes. Owing to the physical and chemical properties of the membranes and the membrane-forming molecules, the use of said carrier systems in conventional cosmetic formulations is severely limited.
Conventionally structured membranes are highly susceptible to amphiphilic substances, such as ionogenic or non-ionogenic emulsifiers, fatty amines, amphoteric emulsifiers, detergent surfactants, thickeners or preservatives which form the basis for many cosmetic preparations or which are present as so-called active agents or excipients in cosmetic end formulations. The structure of the membranes changes in the presence of such substances, which may result in the destruction of the added carrier system during preparation.
Customary membranes are also exposed to the attack of acids and bases. Thus, it is required, for example, that carrier systems containing phospholipids can only be used in the range of the so-called pH optimum of about pH 6.5. Lowering or raising of the pH results in the hydrolysis of the membrane-forming molecules.
Surprisingly, it has now been found that nanodispersions of suitable composition can, in the presence of amphiphilic substances, be incorporated into cosmetic end formulations over a wide pH range in very simple manner while retaining their morphological and physicochemical properties.
An alternative process is to mix component (a) to the discontinuous phase which contains only a non aqueous polar organic solvent to fasten and improve the hydration rate of component (a). In this case, heating period of 20 to 30 minutes is required under optimum temperature between 70 and 80° C. and then cooling down to room temperature before adding the water-soluble active. Then, under moderate stirring, gradually the discontinuous phase to the continuous phase [components (b) and (c)] is added.
The nanodispersions characterised by the process contain particles having an average diameter of <300 nm, typically of less than 100 nm and most preferably from the range of 10 nm to 80 nm. The distribution is monodisperse and correspons to a Gaussian distribution.
A preferred use of a nanodispersion which comprises components (a), (b), (c) and (d) and optionally further components such as for example component (e) is wherein component (a) is a substance which is suitable for forming so-called bilayers, component (b) is a substance which preferably forms W/O structures, and component (c) is a functional lipophilic active agent customarily used in cosmetics.

Component (b), present in the nanodispersion according to this invention, may be used in an amount, for example, of 0.1 to 50% by weight, especially from 0.5 to 20% by weight and preferably from 1 to 10% by weight, based on the total weight of the components (a), (b), (c) and (d).
Component (c) is preferably a natural or synthetic or a partially synthetic di- or triglyceride, a mineral oil, silicone oil, wax, fatty alcohol, guerbet alcohol or the ester thereof, or a mixture of these substances.
The main categories of lipophilic emollients are represented as follows:
Esters which include only esters not otherwise classified as alkoxylated carboxylic acids, glyceryl esters, isethionates, lanolin derivatives, phosphorus compounds, sulfosuccinates or sulfuric acid esters.
Chemically, esters are the covalent compounds formed between acids and alcohols. Esters can be formed from almost all acids (inorganic and carboxylic) and any alcohol.
Thus, the number of naturally occurring and synthetically prepared esters used in cosmetics is very large. In order to subdivide the list of esters, most have been assigned to other chemical classes on the basis of some additional chemical features: alkoxylated fatty acids, alkyl ether sulfates, alkyl sulfates, fats and oils, glyceryl esters, phosphorus compounds, isothionates, sorbitan derivatives, sulfosuccinates, sulfuric acid derivatives and waxes.
The esters that belong to this specific class are derived from carboxylic acids and have the class RCO—OR′ where RCO— represents the carboxylic acid radical and where —OR′ is the alcohol residue. Included are low and medium molecular weight compounds, e.g., butyl acetate or isopropyl myristate; some polymers, e.g., polyvinyl acetate. They are subject to hydrolysis into alcohols and acids at extreme pHs and at elevated temperatures.
Esters in this group find diverse uses in cosmetics as emollients and conditioners (isopropyl myristate), as solvents (ethyl acetate), as fragrance components (methyl salicylate), and as preservatives (propylparaben).

Glyceryl esters and derivatives (excluding fats and oils) such as glyceryl esters comprise a subgroup of esters that are primarily fatty acid mono- and diglycerides or triglycerides modified by reaction with other alcohols and the like. Also included are the fatty acid esters of polyglycerin, the complex dehydration product of glycerin, e.g., polyglyceryl-4 Isostearate.
Like natural fats and oils, these glyceryl esters are subject to hydrolysis. They are used in cosmetics as emollients, lubricants, vehicles, and thickening agents. In addition, the mono-glycerides (e.g., glyceryl stearate) are important emulsifiers. Examples are:

Fats and oils, for example, fats and oils, as a group, are the glyceryl esters of fatty acids (triglycerides) normally found in animal and plant tissues, including those which have been hydrogenated to reduce or eliminate unsaturation. Also included are synthetically-prepared esters of glycerin and fatty acids. They possess the class:
in which —COR, —COR′, —COR″ may be the same or different fatty acid radicals.
Naturally occurring fats and oils in this group are esters and can be hydrolyzed to yield glycerin and mixtures of fatty acids. These fatty acids may serve as raw materials for a variety of other chemicals useful in cosmetics. Alternately, isolated and purified fatty acids can be esterified with glycerin to yield mono-, di-, and triglycerides. Fats and oils are used directly in cosmetics as emollient vehicles and lubricants. Volatile oils obtained by the distillation of plant material are classified as essential oils.
Fats and oils with occlusive properties: Occlusive are cosmetic ingredients that slow down the evaporation of water from the skin surface. This function is different from antiperspirant agents that interfere with the delivery of liquid water to the skin surface.

Fats and oils with emollient properties: Emollient are cosmetic ingredients that help to maintain the soft, smooth, and pliable appearance of skin. Emollients function, via their ability to remain on the skin surface or in the stratum corneum, and act as lubricants to reduce flaking, and improve the skin's appearance. Examples of fats and oils with emollient properties are:

Further preferred lipophilic emollients are fatty alcohols. Fatty alcohols are higher molecular weight nonvolatile alcohols. They are produced from natural fats and oils by reduction of the fatty acid —COOH grouping to the hydroxyl function. Alternately, several completely synthetic routes yield fatty alcohols that may be structurally identical or similar to the nature-derived alcohols. Fatty alcohols generally are primary alcohols conforming to the class RCH2OH; those fatty alcohols prepared from naturally occurring fatty acids normally contain an even number of carbon atoms. Fatty alcohols are used as emollients in numerous types of cosmetics. They are valuable as co-emulsifiers and are employed to increase the viscosity of emulsions, shampoos, and other products. In addition, these alcohols are used for the synthesis of some widely used cosmetic ingredients (e.g., alkoxylated alcohols, alkyl sulfates, alkyl ether sulfates, and phosphorus compounds). Further examples are: Arachidyl Alcohol, Behenyl Alcohol, C9-11 Alcohols, C12-13 Alcohols, C12-15 Alcohols, C12-16 Alcohols, C14-15 Alcohols, C14-22 Alcohols, C20-22 Alcohols, Caprylic Alcohol, Cetearyl Alcohol, Cetyl Alcohol, Coconut Alcohol, C6-12 Perfluoroalkylethanol, Decyl Alcohol, Hydrogenated Jojoba Alcohol, Hydrogenated Rapeseed Alcohol, Hydrogenated Tallow Alcohol, Jojoba Alcohol, Lauryl Alcohol, Myristyl Alcohol, Oleyl Alcohol, Olive Alcohol, Palm Alcohol, Palm Kernel Alcohol, Stearyl Alcohol, Tallow Alcohol, Tridecyl Alcohol.
Further preferred lipophilic emollients are ethers. Ethers are the organic compounds possessing a C—O—C system of bonds. If this C—O—C system is part of a ring, the corresponding compound is classified with the heterocyclics, e.g., tocopherol. Sorbitan derivatives are also heterocyclic ethers. Most ethers used in cosmetics are prepared synthetically. Alkoxylated derivatives are ethers, but are herein classed as alkoxylated alcohols, alkoxylated amides, alkoxylated amines, alkoxylated carboxylic acids, and polymeric ethers. The esterified polyglyceryl ethers resulting from the dehydration of glycerin are included in the group of glyceryl esters.
Ethers with emollient properties are cosmetic ingredients that help to maintain the soft, smooth, and pliable appearance of skin. Emollients function, via their ability to remain on the skin surface or in the stratum corneum, and act as lubricants to reduce flaking, and improve the skin's appearance. Examples of such compounds are: Butoxyethyl Stearate, C12-14 Hydroxyalkyl Hydroxydimerdilinoleyl Ether, C12-14 Hydroxyalkyl Maltitol Ether, C16-18 Hydrooxyalkyl Hydroxydimerdilinoleyl Ether, Cetyl Glyceryl Ether, Cetyloxypropyl Glyceryl Methoxypropyl Myristamide, Chimyl Alcohol, Chimyl Isostearate, Chimyl Stearate, Dicaprylyl Ether, Diretinyl Ether, Ethoxydiglycol Behenate, Ethoxydiglycol Isostearate, Ethoxydiglycol Oleate, Ethylhexyloxyglyceryl Palmitate, Eugenyl Glucoside, Hydrolyzed Proanthocyanidin, Hydroxyethyl Palmityl Oxyhydroxypropyl Palmitamide, lsopolyglycerin-3 Dimethicone, Isopropyl Hydroxycetyl Ether, Isostearyl Ferulate, Isostearyl Glyceryl Ether, Isostearyl Glyceryl Pentaerythrityl Ether, Lauryl Polyglyceryl-6 Cetearyl Glycol Ether, Oleyl Glyceryl Ether, Polyglyceryl-2 Lanolin Alcohol Ether, Polyglyceryl-2 Oleyl Ether, Polyglyceryl-3 Decyltetradecyl Ether, Polyglyceryl-3 Hydroxylauryl Ether, Polyglyceryl-4 Lauryl Ether, Polyglyceryl-4 Oleyl Ether, PPG-9 Diglyceryl Ether, Propylene Glycol Myristyl Ether.
Ethers with solvent properties are, for exmaple, Butoxyethyl Acetate, Diethoxydiglycol, Dimethoxydiglycol, Dimethyl Ether, Dimethyl Isosorbide, Dioxolane, Dipropylene Glycol, Dipropylene Glycol Dimethyl Ether, Ethoxydiglycol Acetate, Ethoxyethanol Acetate, Ethyl Ether, Ethyl Perfluorobutyl Ether, Ethyl Perfluoroisobutyl Ether, Methoxydiglycol, Methoxyethanol Acetate, Methoxyisopropyl Acetate, Methyl Hexyl Ether, Methyl Perfluorobutyl Ether, Methyl Perfluoroisobutyl Ether, Methylal, Propylene Glycol t-Butyl Ether.
Further preferred lipophilic emollients are hydrocarbons. Hydrocarbons are the group of compounds containing only carbon and hydrogen. Hydrocarbons are generally derived from petrochemicals, but some of them are found in the plant and animal kingdom (e.g., azulene or squalene). Their class can vary widely, and include aliphatic, alicyclic, and aromatic compounds. This category also includes some materials of complex composition which can be a source of a variety of hydrocarbons.
As a rule these compounds are chemically inert. Typical are petrolatum, paraffin, and mineral oil, all of which are widely used as emollients and vehicles in cosmetics because of their nonvolatility and unctuous character. Lower molecular weight volatile hydrocarbons are used as solvents (e.g., mineral spirits). The hydrocarbons which are normally gases at room temperature (e.g., butane or propane) are used as aerosol propellants. Finally, it should be noted that many synthetic polymers are hydrocarbons (e.g., polyethylene).
Hydrocarbons with emollient properties are cosmetic ingredients that help to maintain the soft, smooth, and pliable appearance of skin. Emollients function, via their ability to remain on the skin surface or in the stratum corneum, and act as lubricants to reduce flaking, and improve the skin's appearance. Examples of such compounds are: C12-20 Isoparaffin, C20-40 Isoparaffin, C9-16 Isoparaffin, Eicosane, Hydrogenated Polydecene, Hydrogenated Polydodecene, Hydrogenated Polyisobutene, lsoeicosane, Isohexadecane, Mineral Oil, Octadecane, Squalene.
Hydrocarbons with occlusive properties are cosmetic ingredients that slow down the evaporation of water from the skin surface. This function is different from antiperspirant agents that interfere with the delivery of liquid water to the skin surface. By blocking the evaporative loss of water, occlusive materials increase the water content of skin. Occlusive agents are generally lipids that tend to remain on the skin surface. Examples of such compounds are: C18-26 Olefin, C18-70 Isoparaffin, C20-24 Olefin, C24-28 Olefin, C24-30 Olefin, C26-54 Olefin, C28-36 Olefin, C30-45 Olefin, C4-12 Polyolefin, Didecene, Diethylhexylcyclohexane, Mineral Oil, Paraffin, Pentahydrosqualene, Petrolatum, Pristane, Squalane.
Hydrocarbons with solvent properties are, for example, C10-11 Isoparaffin, C10-12 Isoparaffin, C11-12 Isoparaffin, C11-13 Isoparaffin, C11-14 Isoparaffin, C12-14 Isoparaffin, C13-14 Isoparaffin, C13-16 Isoparaffin, Decane, Decene, Dodecene, Heptane, Hexadecene, Hexane, Isododecane, Limonene, Octadecene, Octene, Petroleum Distillates, Tetradecene.
Further preferred lipophilic emollients are silicones. As generally accepted by “silicones” is intended any organosilicon polymers or oligomers having a linear or cyclic, branched or crosslinked structure, of variable molecular weight, and essentially based of recurring structural units in which the silicone atoms are linked to each other by oxygen atoms (siloxane bond SiOSi), optionally substituted hydrocarbon radicals being directly linked via a carbon atom to the silicone atoms. Examples are:
The INCI names for labeling specific cyclic dimethyl polysiloxane compounds are: Cyclotrisiloxane (q.v.) when n is equal to 3, Cyclotetrasiloxane (q.v.) when n is equal to 4, Cyclopentasiloxane (q.v.) when n is equal to 5, Cyclohexasiloxane (q.v.) when n is equal to 6, and Cycloheptasiloxane when n is equal to 7 (q.v.).
