Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of cosmetics, and particularly relates to a photocrosslinkable polymer with anti-ultraviolet efficacy, a preparation method thereof, and an application thereof. Background Art
[0002] Ultraviolet rays (UV) are divided into three categories according to wavelength: UVA (320 - 400 nm), UVB (280 - 320 nm), and UVC (100 - 280 nm). Among them, UVC is basically blocked by the ozone layer, while UVA and UVB can reach the earth's surface. Short-term exposure to these lights will cause skin erythema, edema, pigment deposition, etc., and long-term exposure will cause skin photoaging, skin cancer, pigment abnormalities, eye damage and other hazards. Therefore, it is particularly important to develop ultraviolet protection products.
[0003] Sunscreen is a protective cosmetic applied on the human body surface and is the last barrier against ultraviolet rays. Sunscreen mainly relies on various sunscreen agents to play a role. Sunscreen agents can be divided into physical sunscreen agents and chemical sunscreen agents. Physical sunscreen agents (such as zinc oxide, titanium dioxide, etc.) achieve the sunscreen effect by reflecting ultraviolet rays, while chemical sunscreen agents are a class of organic compounds that absorb ultraviolet rays and convert them into heat energy for release, used to protect the skin from UVA and UVB damage. Different from physical sunscreen, chemical sunscreen agents have a thinner texture, are easier to apply, and are more suitable for daily use.
[0004] However, current chemical sunscreen agents will undergo phenomena such as photodegradation and skin penetration, which will cause potential safety problems such as biological toxicity and endocrine disruption. In addition, sunscreen stays on the human skin surface through physical coating, and there is a problem of loss when encountering water or sweating, resulting in the loss of the function of resisting ultraviolet rays. Therefore, it is particularly necessary to develop long-lasting, water-resistant, and sweat-proof ultraviolet protection products. Summary of the Invention

The compressive modulus of the sunscreen hydrogel is shown in Table 2.
[0056] Uniformly coat 2 ml of the polymerized aqueous solution of A1 - A10 on a 5 cm × 5 cm transparent PMMA plate. Place the PMMA plate 2 cm above the TM - 223 (TENMARS) ultraviolet light meter. Use a 365 nm ultraviolet lamp to irradiate directly above the PMMA plate, and record the ultraviolet light intensity detected by the ultraviolet light meter. Take the blank PMMA plate as 100% as a reference, and record the data in Table 2. It can be seen from the data in Table 2 that the polymerized aqueous solutions of A1 - A10 all have good ultraviolet resistance effects.
[0057] Table 2 Sun protection hydrogel (component concentration) Compressive modulus (kPa) Ultraviolet transmittance A1: 2 wt%; Initiator: 0.5 wt% 42 9.7% A2: 2 wt%; Initiator: 0.5 wt% 45 10.1% A3: 10 wt%; Initiator: 0.5 wt% 62 14.3% A4: 10 wt%; Initiator: 0.5 wt% 54 14.7% A5: 2 wt%; Initiator: 0.5 wt% 39 17.2% A6: 2 wt%; Initiator: 0.5 wt% 35 13.5% A7: 2 wt%; Initiator: 0.5 wt% 39 15.4% A8: 2 wt%; Initiator: 0.5 wt% 45 13.2% A9: 2 wt%; Initiator: 0.5 wt% 43 16.1% A10: 2 wt%; Initiator: 0.5 wt% 40 17.3% A1: 2 wt%; Initiator: 0.05 wt% 20 9.6% A1: 2 wt%; Initiator: 0.2 wt% 31 9.7% A1: 3 wt%; Initiator: 0.5 wt% 50 9.7% The values of the compression modulus in Table 2 indicate that under the action of the photoinitiator, the cross - linking polymerization reaction of the (meth) acrylene double bonds in the photocrosslinkable polymer will be initiated, forming a non - flowing hydrogel. The mechanical strength of the gel network can resist the impact of running water and the penetration of sweat, prolong the residence time of the sunscreen molecules on the skin surface, and also reduce the safety risks brought by the penetration of small - molecule sunscreen agents into the skin. Test Example 2: Gel - forming property test of the sunscreen hydrogel According to the method of Example 11, prepare sunscreen hydrogels with different concentration components. Select any one of the components and irradiate it with light of 405 nm wavelength. The flowing sunscreen hydrogel solidifies to form a non - flowing sunscreen hydrogel in about 10 s, as Figure 1 shown (the components of the sunscreen hydrogel shown in the figure: A1: 2 wt%; photoinitiator: 0.5 wt%).
[0058] Test Example 3: Ultraviolet absorption property test of the sunscreen hydrogel According to the method of Example 11, prepare sunscreen hydrogels with different concentration components. Select any one group of sunscreen hydrogels: A1: 2 wt%; photoinitiator: 0.5 wt%, and drop it on the induction area of the ultraviolet sunscreen card. Irradiate it with ultraviolet light, as Figure 2 shown (the components of the sunscreen hydrogel shown in the figure: A1: 2 wt%; photoinitiator: 0.5 wt%). When performing ultraviolet light irradiation, the induction area absorbs ultraviolet light, and the color of the area other than the sunscreen hydrogel becomes significantly darker. After removing the sunscreen hydrogel, it can be clearly seen that the area coated with the sunscreen hydrogel has basically not changed color, proving that the hydrogel has absorbed ultraviolet light. This shows that the sunscreen hydrogel has a significant ultraviolet shielding effect on the ultraviolet induction card.
[0059] Test Example 4: Comparative test of the ultraviolet absorption properties of the sunscreen hydrogel According to the method of Example 11, prepare sunscreen hydrogels with different concentration components. Select any one group of sunscreen hydrogels and drop it on the right side of the induction area of the ultraviolet sunscreen card. Select Comparative Example 1 and drop it on the left side of the induction area of the ultraviolet sunscreen card. Irradiate it with ultraviolet light, and the polymer solution on the right side cross - links to form a non - flowing gel. AsFigure 3 As shown (in the figure, the components of the sunscreen hydrogel are: A1: 2 wt%; initiator: 0.5 wt%), when ultraviolet light irradiation is carried out, except for the areas other than the solution of Comparative Example 1 and the sunscreen hydrogel, the induction area changes color due to the absorption of ultraviolet light. After the ultraviolet sunscreen card is immersed in water for 10 minutes and then taken out, the solution of Comparative Example 1 is washed away by water, while the gel remains intact. When ultraviolet light irradiation is carried out again, the area coated with the gel on the ultraviolet sunscreen card does not change color. After removing the sunscreen hydrogel, the color contrast change can be clearly seen. It further shows that the sunscreen hydrogel has significant waterproof effect and long-lasting ultraviolet protection effect.
[0060] Example 12: Application of the photocrosslinkable polymer in ultraviolet protection products For the photocrosslinkable polymers prepared in Examples 1 - 10, through Ultraviolet Absorption Test 1, it can be seen that the photocrosslinkable polymers have the function of absorbing ultraviolet light in the range of 210 - 390 nm. The polymers A1 - A10 are respectively dissolved in water with a concentration range of 2 wt% - 10 wt%, and 0.05 wt% - 0.5 wt% of photoinitiator is added to obtain the sunscreen hydrogel, which can be used in ultraviolet protection products. Through Elastic Modulus and Ultraviolet Penetration Rate Test Example 2, Gel Formation Performance Test Example 3, and Ultraviolet Absorption Performance Test Example 4 of the sunscreen hydrogel, the effects of the ultraviolet protection products are evaluated.
[0061] Example 13: Application of the photocrosslinkable polymer in antioxidant products For the photocrosslinkable polymers obtained in Examples 1 and 2, small molecule compounds with anti-ultraviolet efficacy are connected to the hydrophilic natural polymer backbone by chemical bonding, and at the same time, photocrosslinkable (meth)acryloyl groups are introduced, which have the effects of scavenging free radicals and inhibiting lipid peroxidation, and have application value in antioxidant products.
[0062] Example 14: Application of the photocrosslinkable polymer in anti-corrosion and bactericidal products For the photocrosslinkable polymers obtained in Examples 1 and 2, small molecule compounds with anti-ultraviolet efficacy are connected to the hydrophilic natural polymer backbone by chemical bonding, and at the same time, photocrosslinkable (meth)acryloyl groups are introduced, which can damage cell membranes, inhibit enzyme activity, and interfere with DNA / RNA synthesis, so it has application value in anti-corrosion and bactericidal products.
