Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of daily cosmetics technology, and in particular to a polypeptide-like Maya blue pigment for use in color cosmetics with anti-inflammatory, anti-aging and self-repairing effects, and its preparation method. Background Technology
[0002] Makeup pigments are substances that can alter the color of cosmetics or skin, primarily by absorbing or reflecting visible light to provide color. Based on their chemical composition, makeup pigments can be categorized into organic pigments, inorganic pigments, and metallic pigments. Organic pigments offer vibrant colors and a wide range of applications, but are easily affected by heat, light, oxygen, and chemicals, resulting in poor stability. Inorganic pigments offer good stability and a long lifespan, but their colors tend to be darker. Metallic pigments offer vibrant colors, but contain heavy metals such as lead and chromium, posing safety risks. Furthermore, long-term use of makeup can lead to dry, sensitive, and prematurely aging skin.
[0003] Peptides are compounds composed of multiple amino acids linked by peptide bonds. They possess various biological activities, including stimulating skin cells to produce collagen and elastin, thus having anti-aging effects; accelerating skin repair by promoting skin cell metabolism; preventing skin oxidation by scavenging free radicals; and whitening, moisturizing, and anti-inflammatory effects. In short, peptides can improve skin problems such as aging, damage, dryness, oxidation, inflammation, and pigmentation, keeping the skin healthy and beautiful. However, current peptide products are mainly freeze-dried powders, masks, and serums, with limited application in makeup.
[0004] To address the above problems, this invention provides a polypeptide-like Maya blue pigment with anti-inflammatory, anti-aging, and self-repairing effects for use in cosmetics, and its preparation method. Summary of the Invention
[0005] Objective of the Invention: To address the problems existing in the prior art, this invention provides a polypeptide-Maya blue-like pigment for cosmetics and its preparation method. The polypeptide-Maya blue-like pigment prepared by this invention is a safe, environmentally friendly, anti-inflammatory, and color-matchable attapulgite-based pigment. The introduction of polypeptide molecules improves the surface properties of the pigment, enhances its skin compatibility, and endows it with anti-inflammatory, self-repairing, and anti-aging properties; it is suitable for use in cosmetics such as lipsticks, foundation creams, eyeshadows, and blushes.
[0006] Technical solution: The present invention provides a method for preparing a polypeptide-Maya blue pigment for color cosmetics, comprising the following steps: S1: After mixing organic pigment molecules with purified nano-attapulgite evenly, baking them in an oven at 100-220℃ for 12-48 h, then soaking them in an ethanol solution for 6-12 h, centrifuging, drying, and grinding until no particles are present, to obtain a Maya blue organic / inorganic hybrid pigment.
[0007] S2: Take the Maya Blue organic / inorganic hybrid pigment into acetone, stir evenly, add isocyanate silane, stir at 50-85℃ for 2-3 h, centrifuge, dry, grind until no particles are present, and obtain silane-modified Maya Blue pigment.
[0008] S3: Disperse the polypeptide in ultrapure water, add silane-modified Maya blue pigment, mix evenly, stir at room temperature for 7-10 days under sealed conditions, centrifuge, dry at room temperature, and grind until no particles are present to obtain polypeptide-based Maya blue composite pigment.
[0009] Further, in S1, the mass ratio of the organic pigment molecules to the purified nano-attapulgite is 1 to 15: 100.
[0010] Furthermore, in S1, the organic pigment molecule is any one of indigo, indigo blue, methyl violet, methylene blue, Congo red, or alizarin yellow.
[0011] Furthermore, in S2, the mass ratio of the Maya Blue organic / inorganic hybrid pigment to the acetone is 1:10-20.
[0012] Further, in S2, the mass ratio of the isocyanate silane to the Maya blue-like organic / inorganic hybrid pigment is 2 to 5:100.
[0013] Furthermore, the isocyanate silane is isocyanate-propyltrimethoxysilane or isocyanate-propyltriethoxysilane.
[0014] Furthermore, in S3, the mass ratio of the polypeptide, silane-modified Mayan blue pigment, and ultrapure water is 2-10:100:500-1000.
[0015] Furthermore, the polypeptide is a commercially available cosmetic polypeptide.
[0016] Preferably, the commercially available cosmetic peptide is any one or more of collagen peptides, elastin peptides, ceramide peptides, oligopeptides, acetyl hexapeptide-8, hexapeptide, palmitoyl pentapeptide-4, carnosine, and hyaluronic acid peptides.
[0017] Preferably, in S1, the specific drying conditions are: drying temperature 60-100 ℃, drying time 6-24 h;
[0018] In S2, the specific drying conditions are: drying temperature 60-100 ℃, drying time 6-24 h.
[0019] Beneficial Effects: This invention prepares a Maya blue-like organic / inorganic hybrid pigment using high-temperature baking technology; subsequently, the Maya blue-like pigment is modified with isocyanate silane using surface modification technology to obtain a silane-modified Maya blue-like pigment; finally, peptides are grafted onto the surface of the Maya blue-like pigment through the coupling effect of isocyanate silane to prepare a peptide-Maya blue-like pigment. The peptide-Maya blue-like pigment prepared by this invention has safe and environmentally friendly, anti-inflammatory, anti-aging, and self-repairing effects, and good skin compatibility, making it suitable for use in cosmetics such as lipsticks, foundation creams, eyeshadows, and blushes.
[0020] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages:
[0021] (1) The pigment used in this invention is a Mayan blue organic / inorganic hybrid pigment. The organic pigment molecules enter the pores (large inside and small outside) of the attapulgite-like gourd-shaped mouth through molecular thermal motion at high temperature. The free organic pigment molecules are washed away by soaking in ethanol. The attapulgite carrier is harmless to the human body, safe and healthy and has anti-inflammatory effects.
[0022] (2) The isocyanate group in the isocyanate silane used in this invention reacts with the hydroxyl group on the surface of the attapulgite to generate urethane, which is fixed on the surface of the Maya blue pigment through chemical bonds to obtain silane-modified Maya blue pigment; the isocyanate silane plays a role in sealing the attapulgite pores containing pigment molecules, preventing pigment molecules from escaping from the attapulgite pores, thereby improving the color stability of the Maya blue pigment.
[0023] (3) In this invention, the silanoxy groups on the surface of the silane-modified Maya blue pigment are further hydrolyzed to produce silanols (also called silanols), which undergo esterification with the carboxyl groups in the polypeptide at room temperature, fixing the polypeptide molecular chain on the surface of the Maya blue pigment in the form of ester groups. Therefore, through the coupling effect of isocyanate silane, the polypeptide is grafted onto the surface of the Maya blue pigment, which further improves the color stability of the pigment, and the polypeptide endows the Maya blue pigment with anti-aging, anti-oxidation, self-repairing and anti-inflammatory effects.
