Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of cosmetic raw materials, and in particular to a preparation method and application of hyaluronic acid and its salt. Background Art

[0002] Hyaluronic acid, also known as hyaluronic acid, has a molecular formula of (C 14 H 21 NO 11 )n, is a disaccharide unit glycosaminoglycan composed of D-glucuronic acid and N-acetylglucosamine, referred to as HA. Hyaluronic acid salts such as sodium hyaluronate and potassium hyaluronate are widely used in different fields, especially in health care, food manufacturing and cosmetics.

[0003] Hyaluronic acid and hyaluronate are both moisturizing ingredients in the cosmetics industry, but they have the following differences: 1. Hyaluronic acid exists in the form of acid, while hyaluronate exists in the form of salt; 2. Hyaluronic acid salts, such as sodium hyaluronate, are more stable, and the addition of sodium will turn them into non-Newtonian fluids, which are very good for exfoliation, while hyaluronic acid is not good for exfoliation; 3. The hyaluronic acid on the market is a long-chain macromolecule that cannot penetrate the skin to reach the dermis, so hyaluronic acid cannot achieve the effect of wrinkle removal and plumping. Through special extraction methods, sodium hyaluronate can penetrate into the dermis as a small molecule of hyaluronic acid.

[0004] Ordinary hyaluronic acid has a large molecular weight and high production cost, which affects the skin absorption effect and its application is also subject to certain restrictions. Therefore, a new preparation method of hyaluronic acid and its salt is developed to improve the yield and purity, and at the same time has better water solubility, absorbability, wrinkle removal and exfoliation effects, and has broad application prospects.

The moisturizing rates of the test samples hyaluronic acid, sodium hyaluronate and potassium hyaluronate at each test time point (30min / 1h / 2h / 4h) are higher than those of the blank control and the positive. The relative moisturizing rates of the test samples at the test time points (30min / 1h / 2h / 4h) are all above 150%, with good moisturizing performance; and there are significant differences at the test points of 30min / 1h / 2h / 4h (p<0.05).

[0130] The applicant declares that the above is only a specific implementation mode of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Those skilled in the art should understand that any changes or substitutions that can be easily thought of by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention shall fall within the protection scope and disclosure scope of the present invention.
