Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of daily chemicals, and particularly relates to a preparation method of an oil-in-water or water-in-oil emulsifier based on titanium dioxide. Background Art

[0002] Sun protection has always been an important topic in the field of cosmetics, and the stability, safety, and use comfort of sun protection products are the most important contents in the research of sun protection products. Among them, sun protection products with an emulsifying system need to add a large amount of emulsifiers and thickening and suspending stabilizers to achieve the stability of the system. The role of conventional emulsifiers is to uniformly mix the oil phase and water phase of sun protection products to form an emulsion. However, after adding conventional emulsifiers to the formula, sun protection products often have a strong sticky feeling after application. At the same time, conventional emulsifiers themselves have strong irritation, which further increases the burden on the skin. In addition, with the addition of conventional emulsifiers, the formula cost increases significantly, making it more difficult to promote sun protection products. The prior art strives to find a more mild and better-use-experience formula system to improve the product value on the premise of ensuring sun protection and skin care.

[0003] Pickering emulsion uses solid particles to replace traditional chemical emulsifiers. The solid particles form a thin film on the surface of the dispersed-phase droplets, preventing the aggregation of droplets and preparing a stable oil / water dispersed phase. When using solid particles as emulsifiers, the stability of the emulsion depends on the particle size, surface wettability of the solid particles, and the interaction between the solid particles. It can form a relatively stable thin film at the oil / water interface and has better emulsifying performance.

[0004] CN109833214A discloses a mild oil-in-water Pickering sun protection skin care product, which uses zinc oxide and sodium polyacryloyldimethyl taurate to prepare a mild oil-in-water Pickering sun protection skin care product. However, the emulsifier prepared by this method still has very limited improvement performance on the emulsion stability and skin feel comfort.

[0005] Therefore, developing a new process and technology to prepare emulsifiers to reduce the sticky feeling and irritation of sun protection products and improve the emulsion stability and use comfort has become an urgent technical problem to be solved at present. Summary of the Invention

[0006] Aiming at the deficiencies of the prior art, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a preparation method of an oil-in-water or water-in-oil emulsifier based on titanium dioxide. The preparation method of the emulsifier uses titanium dioxide with a particle size of 100 - 1000 nm as a raw material and is modified by a special modifier to obtain the emulsifier. The oil-in-water / water-in-oil emulsifier prepared by this method can improve the stability of the emulsion, and at the same time reduce the sticky feeling and irritation of sun protection products, greatly improving the use comfort and safety.

[0007] To achieve the object of this invention, the following technical solutions are adopted in this invention:

[0008] In a first aspect, this invention provides a preparation method of an oil-in-water or water-in-oil emulsifier based on titanium dioxide, and the preparation method includes the following steps:

[0009] (1) Mix and disperse titanium dioxide with a modifier to obtain modified titanium dioxide.

[0010] (2) After drying the modified titanium dioxide, the emulsifier based on titanium dioxide is obtained.

[0011] The particle size of the titanium dioxide in step (1) is 100 - 1000 nm.

[0012] The modifier is sodium silicate, or a combination of silica, aluminum hydroxide, and triethoxyoctylsilane with a mass ratio of 10:(3 - 8):(3 - 8). The prepared emulsifiers are respectively an oil-in-water emulsifier or a water-in-oil emulsifier.

[0013] Among them, the specific point values in 3 - 8 can be selected as 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, etc., and the specific point values in 100 - 1000 nm can be selected as 100 nm, 300 nm, 500 nm, 700 nm, 900 nm, 1000 nm, etc.

[0014] Titanium dioxide is the most commonly used sunscreen raw material in sunscreen products. It has the functions of absorbing, reflecting, and converting ultraviolet rays in sunscreen products, and has good protection ability against both UVB and UVA. In this invention, appropriate modification and particle size adjustment are made to titanium dioxide particles, so that titanium dioxide has the effect of a surfactant, and while preventing ultraviolet rays, it plays a role in stabilizing the oil-water interface.

[0015] In this invention, controlling the particle size of titanium dioxide at 100 - 1000 nm can improve the dispersion stability of the prepared emulsifier in sunscreen products. At the same time, it can further improve the ultraviolet absorption effect.

[0200]

[0201] The test results are shown in Table 10:

[0202] Table 10

[0203]

[0204]

[0205] From the test data in Tables 5 - 10 above, it can be seen that the emulsifier prepared by the present invention has low irritation, and can improve the stability and skin feel comfort of the emulsion product while maintaining the sun protection effect.

[0206] From the data comparison between Application Example 1 and Comparative Application Examples 6 - 7, it can be seen that compared with traditional emulsifiers, the emulsifier prepared by the present invention can significantly improve the spreading property and freshness of the emulsion, reduce irritation, and greatly improve the use comfort of the product.

[0207] From the data comparison between Application Example 1 and Comparative Application Examples 1 - 2, it can be seen that during the preparation process of the emulsifier, when the particle size range of titanium dioxide particles is outside 100 - 1000 nm, the modification effect of the modifier on titanium dioxide is poor, thus affecting the emulsifying ability of the prepared emulsifier.

[0208] From the data comparison between Application Example 1 and Comparative Application Examples 3 - 5, it can be seen that during the preparation process of the water-in-oil emulsifier, when any one of silica, aluminum hydroxide, or triethoxyoctylsilane is missing from the modifier, the emulsifying ability of the prepared water-in-oil emulsifier decreases, thus affecting the stability and use comfort of the emulsion product.

[0209] From the data comparison between Application Example 1 and Application Examples 4 - 5, it can be seen that when the particle size of titanium dioxide particles is controlled within the range of 300 - 500 nm, the emulsifying ability of the prepared emulsifier is better, and the stability and use comfort of the emulsion can be further improved.

[0210] From the data comparison between Application Example 1 and Application Example 6, it can be seen that when the number of times of mixing and dispersing titanium dioxide particles with the modifier is controlled within 2 - 5 times, the modification effect of the modifier on titanium dioxide can be improved, and the emulsifying ability of the emulsifier can be improved, thereby further enhancing the stability and use comfort of the emulsion.

[0211] From the data comparison between Application Example 1 and Application Examples 7 - 8, it can be seen that when the mass ratio of titanium dioxide to the total mass of the modifier used for mixing and dispersing is controlled within the range of 100:(1 - 25), the modification effect of the modifier on titanium dioxide can be improved, and the emulsifying ability of the emulsifier can be improved, thereby further enhancing the stability and use comfort of the emulsion.
