AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Essential oils have a high freezing point due to the intermolecular forces of their oil components, making them easy to solidify, affecting their spreadability and efficacy.

Method used

Plant sterol/octyldodecanol lauroyl glutamate is slowly dripped into jojoba seed oil and sorbitan oleate is added to form tiny microspheres. The structure of sorbitan oleate is used to separate the microspheres, and supercritical CO2 is combined to extract ginseng root extract to lower the freezing point of the oil.

Abstract

The present invention relates to the field of cosmetics technology, specifically to a repairing composition for lowering the freezing point of essential oils and a preparation method thereof. The composition comprises slowly dripping phytosterol / octyldodecanol lauroyl glutamate into jojoba seed oil stirred at 200 rpm. The stirring speed is then reduced, sorbitan oleate is added, and the mixture is stirred until uniform. A ginseng root extract extracted with supercritical CO2 is then added to produce the repairing composition. In the present invention, the phytosterol / octyldodecanol lauroyl glutamate is slowly dripped into the stirred jojoba seed oil to form fine microspheres. The sorbitan oleate's opening-like structure then separates the microspheres, reducing the interaction between them and lowering the freezing point of wax and ester components in the oil. The ginseng root is then extracted with supercritical CO2 to extract more volatile oils and lower the freezing point of the ginseng root extract. The repairing composition not only has a lower freezing point but also simultaneously helps lower the freezing point of the essential oil to which it is added.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of cosmetics, and in particular to a repairing composition for lowering the freezing point of essence oil and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Essential oils contain different oils, such as esters and waxes. When these oils mix, the intermolecular forces between them raise their freezing point, causing the essential oil to solidify easily. Essential oils typically coagulate or even crystallize at temperatures between 7-10°C, causing the active ingredients to precipitate, leading to poor spreadability and reduced efficacy. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The object of the present invention is to provide a method for preparing a repair composition for lowering the freezing point of essential oil.

[0004] To achieve the above object, the present invention provides the following technical solutions:

[0005] A method for preparing a repair composition for lowering the freezing point of an essential oil comprises dripping phytosterol / octyldodecanol lauroyl glutamate at a rate of 0.5 drops / s into jojoba seed oil stirred at 200 rpm, reducing the stirring speed, adding sorbitan oleate, stirring evenly, and adding a ginseng root extract extracted by supercritical CO2 to obtain the repair composition.

[0006] Furthermore, the stirring speed is reduced to 50 rpm before adding sorbitan oleate.

[0007] Furthermore, by weight, the jojoba seed oil comprises 30-75 parts, the phytosterol / octyldodecanol lauroyl glutamate comprises 1-10 parts, the ginseng root extract comprises 1-10 parts, and the sorbitan oleate comprises 1-10 parts.

[0008] Furthermore, the ginseng root extract is prepared by freeze-drying the ginseng root at 1-20°C for 1 hour, placing the dried ginseng root in a supercritical extraction kettle, adding CO2 into the supercritical extraction kettle, then pressurizing the supercritical extraction kettle to 15-35MPa, heating it to 20-40°C, and extracting for 2-5 hours, collecting the fractions in a distillation column at 40-60°C and 5-20MPa, to obtain the ginseng root extract.

[0009] The present invention also includes a repair composition prepared by any of the above preparation methods.

[0010] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: the phytosterol / octyldodecanol lauroyl glutamate in the present invention is slowly dripped into jojoba seed oil under stirring at 200 rpm to form fine microspheres, and then the similar opening structure of sorbitan oleate (such as Figure 5The ginseng root extract (shown in Figure 1) separates the microspheres, reducing the interaction between them and lowering the freezing point of waxes and esters in oils. Supercritical CO2 extraction of ginseng root extract can extract more volatile oils and lower their freezing point. The repair composition of the present invention not only has a lower freezing point but also helps lower the freezing point of the essential oil to which it is added.
