Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of hair care technology, specifically to a natural Chinese herbal hair care composition and its preparation process. Background Technology
[0002] With the fast pace of life, changing environmental factors, and the impact of unhealthy lifestyle habits, scalp health problems are becoming increasingly prominent, making hair care a significant public concern. Traditional Chinese medicine has a long history of application in hair care, and its natural and gentle properties align with modern consumers' pursuit of safe hair care products. Compared to chemically synthesized ingredients, traditional Chinese medicine ingredients are more easily absorbed by the scalp and can regulate the scalp environment from the root. Therefore, natural traditional Chinese herbal hair care products have gradually become a hot topic in industry research and development and market consumption. External application of hair care products allows the effective ingredients to act directly on the scalp and hair roots, quickly exerting a conditioning effect, and has become the mainstream form of hair care products. The optimization and upgrading of related technologies are of great significance for improving hair care effects and ensuring safety of use, and also provide a broad technological space and market foundation for the research and development of natural traditional Chinese herbal hair care compositions.
[0003] Traditional Chinese herbal hair care products lack a scientific and systematic approach to formulation design. The combination of ingredients often relies on experience, failing to form a synergistic system of complementary functions. This results in insufficient utilization of the effective ingredients. In terms of extraction processes, the techniques are relatively simple, making it difficult to accurately preserve the active ingredients in Chinese herbs. Some processes may even damage the structure of the effective ingredients, affecting product efficacy. The lack of strict aseptic control and quality management standards during the preparation process makes it prone to problems such as excessive microorganisms and impurities, posing potential risks to users. At the same time, traditional products have poor scalp adaptability, and some products may irritate the scalp. Furthermore, the products lack stability and are prone to degradation and morphological changes of effective ingredients during storage. The convenience of use also fails to meet the needs of modern consumers, making it difficult to balance gentleness, effectiveness, and safety. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings of existing technologies and provide a natural herbal hair care composition and its preparation process. The core formula consists of a targeted inhibitory core herbal group, a scalp conditioning and synergistic group, and a pharmaceutical excipient adaptation system. It selects high-quality herbal raw materials from authentic producing areas and uses specialized extraction and purification techniques to retain the activity of effective components. The preparation process follows aseptic control, precise mixing, standardized drying and pulverization, and strict quality testing procedures to ensure that the product's physicochemical indicators, microbial limits, and safety meet standards. The product is in powder form, can be dissolved in water for external application, and combines gentleness and effectiveness. It can synergistically condition the scalp environment and meet hair care needs. This invention overcomes the shortcomings of traditional hair care products, such as unscientific formulations and non-standard processes, achieving a balance between the utilization of natural ingredients, product quality, and ease of use. It provides consumers with a safe and effective natural hair care option and promotes the standardized development of herbal hair care technology.

[0041] Performance testing methods: Retention rate of active ingredients: Detected using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). One gram of each of the three sample groups was accurately pipetted, added to 50 mL of methanol, and dissolved by sonication for 30 minutes. The solutions were then filtered through a 0.45 μm filter and injected into the HPLC instrument. Chromatographic conditions: C18 column, column temperature 30℃; mobile phase: methanol and water; flow rate 1.0 mL / min; detection wavelengths: EGCG 278 nm, rosmarinic acid 330 nm, total triterpenes 254 nm, matrine 220 nm. The content of each active ingredient was calculated based on the peak area, and the retention rate was calculated in conjunction with the feed amount.
[0042] Physicochemical and safety indicators: Powder particle size was measured using a laser particle size analyzer; moisture content was measured using a Karl Fischer moisture analyzer; 1 gram of powder was added to 50 ml of deionized water, stirred and dissolved, and the pH value was measured using a precision pH meter; the total bacterial count, mold and yeast counts were measured using the plate count method according to the standard method for microbiological testing, and pathogenic bacteria were detected using selective culture media; the total heavy metal content was measured using inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry.
[0043] Practical indicators: Add 1 gram of powder to 50 ml of deionized water, stir at room temperature, record the time required for complete dissolution, and observe whether there is precipitation or stratification after dissolution; use the fixed funnel method to determine the angle of repose of the powder and evaluate its flowability.
[0044] Results and Analysis: Retention rate of active ingredients: In the compliant group, the retention rates of all key active ingredients were above 90%, with EGCG retention rate at 91.8%, rosmarinic acid retention rate at 90.7%, total triterpenoid retention rate at 90.2%, and matrine retention rate at 91.3%. In the low-compliant group, the retention rates of all active ingredients were only between 67% and 71%, with EGCG retention rate at 67%, rosmarinic acid retention rate at 68%, total triterpenoid retention rate at 69%, and matrine retention rate at 71%. Furthermore, due to excessive levels of emodin in the Polygonum multiflorum alcohol extract, the emodin content in the finished product reached 0.86%. In the non-compliant group, the retention rates of all active ingredients were above 92%, with EGCG retention rate at 92.3%, rosmarinic acid retention rate at 93.1%, total triterpenoid retention rate at 92.5%, and matrine retention rate at 92.8%. However, due to excessive levels of emodin in the Polygonum multiflorum alcohol extract, the emodin content in the finished product reached 1.39%.
[0045] Physicochemical and safety indicators: The compliant group had a powder particle size of 88 micrometers, a moisture content of 3.3%, and a pH of 5.5 after dissolution; microbiological testing showed a total bacterial count of 75 CFU / g, a total mold and yeast count of 4 CFU / g, and no detectable pathogens; the total heavy metal content was 7 ppm. All indicators met the preset requirements. The low-standard group had a powder particle size of 95 micrometers, a moisture content of 4.9%, and a pH of 5.4 after dissolution; microbiological testing showed a total bacterial count of 130 CFU / g, exceeding the preset limit, a total mold and yeast count of 8 CFU / g, and no detectable pathogens; the total heavy metal content was 8 ppm, and other indicators were close to the preset upper limit. The exceeding group had a powder particle size of 85 micrometers, a moisture content of 3.1%, and a pH of 5.6 after dissolution; all microbiological testing indicators met the requirements; the total heavy metal content was 9.7 ppm, close to the preset upper limit, but it did not meet safety requirements due to excessive levels of emodin in Polygonum multiflorum.
[0046] Practical Indicators: The compliant group of powder dissolves quickly in water, completely within 30 seconds, producing a homogeneous solution without sedimentation or stratification; the angle of repose is 29 degrees, indicating excellent flowability and ease of application. The low-compliant group of powder dissolves more slowly, with a small amount of undissolved particles remaining after 45 seconds, and slight sedimentation at the bottom after 10 minutes of standing; the angle of repose is 36 degrees, indicating poor flowability and requiring repeated stirring during use. The excessive group of powder dissolves quickly, completely within 28 seconds, producing a homogeneous solution; the angle of repose is 28 degrees, indicating excellent flowability, but due to excessive components, it cannot be used as a qualified product.
[0047] Conclusion: The comparison of the three sets of experimental results shows that only by selecting extracts that meet the preset standards can the powder composition simultaneously meet the requirements of safe compliance in terms of active ingredient retention rate and ease of use. Extracts with low standards will result in low active ingredient retention rate, excessive microbial levels, and poor performance; while extracts with excessive standards may improve the retention rate of some active ingredients, they pose safety risks. Therefore, extracts that meet the specified standards must be selected for composition preparation.
[0048] Example 3: Optimization and verification of the effect of drying process on the properties of powder composition.
[0049] Experimental Design: Using the retention rate of active ingredients, physicochemical stability, and practicality as the core evaluation indicators, two groups of different drying methods were set up. 800 grams of powder composition were prepared in each group. Other raw material pretreatment and preceding processes remained consistent with Example 1. The focus was on investigating the effects of spray drying and freeze drying on product performance. Specific process parameters are shown in the table below:
[0050] Performance testing methods: Retention rate of active ingredients: The total triterpenoid content of EGCG rosmarinic acid was detected by high performance liquid chromatography for the two finished products and after 6 months of storage. The retention rate of each component was calculated as follows: retention rate = content after storage ÷ initial content × 100%.
[0051] Physicochemical properties: Powder particle size was measured using a laser particle size analyzer; moisture content was measured using a Karl Fischer moisture analyzer; 1 gram of powder was added to 50 ml of deionized water, and the time required for complete dissolution was recorded; the angle of repose was measured using the fixed funnel method to evaluate flowability.
[0052] Stability: After sealing the two components, store them in a constant temperature and humidity chamber at 25℃ and 65% relative humidity. Observe the appearance of the powder every 3 months and record whether clumping or discoloration occurs. Test the microbial limit after 6 months to determine whether it meets the requirements.
[0053] Results and Analysis: Retention rates of active ingredients: For the spray-dried product, the retention rates of EGCG (91.5%), rosmarinic acid (90.3%), and total triterpenes (89.8%) were as follows: After 6 months of storage, the retention rates of EGCG (88.1%), rosmarinic acid (87.2%), and total triterpenes (86.5%) were as follows. For the freeze-dried product, the retention rates of EGCG (93.2%), rosmarinic acid (92.5%), and total triterpenes (91.4%) were as follows: After 6 months of storage, the retention rates of EGCG (89.8%), rosmarinic acid (89.1%), and total triterpenes (88.0%) were as follows: The data show that the retention rates of active ingredients in the freeze-dried group are slightly higher than those in the spray-dried group, but the difference is not significant, and both groups effectively retain the active ingredients.
[0054] Physicochemical properties: Spray-dried powder: particle size 86 micrometers, moisture content 3.4%, complete dissolution time 26 seconds, angle of repose 28 degrees; powder is uniformly pale yellow, without lumps or impurities. Freeze-dried powder: particle size 93 micrometers, moisture content 2.7%, complete dissolution time 42 seconds, angle of repose 32 degrees; powder is also pale yellow, but the particles are slightly coarser. The comparison shows that the spray-dried product has better solubility and flowability, better meeting the needs of topical products for immediate dissolution and easy application.
[0055] Stability: After 6 months of storage, the spray-dried powder showed no clumping, no moisture absorption, and maintained a uniform pale yellow color, consistent with its initial state. Microbiological testing showed a total bacterial count of 72 CFU / g, a total mold and yeast count of 5 CFU / g, and no detectable pathogenic bacteria, meeting the requirements. The freeze-dried powder showed slight clumping, which could be dispersed into powder by gentle hand grinding, with no significant color change. Microbiological testing indicators also met the requirements, but the clumping affected ease of use.
[0056] In conclusion, considering the overall physicochemical properties and stability of the active ingredient retention rate, spray drying is more suitable for the large-scale production of the powder composition of this invention. Although the freeze-dried group has a slightly higher active ingredient retention rate, the spray-dried group's products have better solubility and flowability, better meeting the needs of immediate dissolution for external use. Furthermore, it offers higher production efficiency and lower cost, while achieving the designed standards for active ingredient retention rate and stability.
[0057] Example 4: Optimization of the effect of mixing parameters on the uniformity of powder composition.
[0058] Experimental Design: Using component uniformity and solubility as the core evaluation indicators, three different combinations of stirring parameters were set up for the raw material mixing and dispersion process. 600 grams of powder composition were prepared for each combination, with other process steps remaining consistent with Example 1. The focus was on investigating the impact of initial mixing speed and suspension stirring time on product performance. Specific parameters are shown in the table below:
[0059] Performance testing methods: Component uniformity: 10 samples were randomly selected from each group, each weighing 1 gram. The EGCG content in each sample was detected by high performance liquid chromatography. The relative standard deviation of the EGCG content of the 10 samples was calculated. A relative standard deviation ≤ 3% was considered to be of excellent uniformity.
[0060] Solubility: Take 1 gram of each sample and add 50 ml of deionized water. Stir at room temperature and observe the dispersion state after dissolution. Check for any precipitation or agglomeration. Score according to the following standards: 10 points: completely dissolved with no precipitation or agglomeration; 7 points: basically dissolved with a small amount of fine precipitation; 4 points: partially dissolved with obvious precipitation or agglomeration.
[0061] Results and Analysis: Component uniformity: The relative standard deviation of EGCG content in the 10 samples of Group 1 was 4.1%, exceeding the excellent standard of 3%, indicating that the initial mixing speed was too low and the stirring time of the suspension was too short, resulting in uneven mixing of the components, with some areas having higher EGCG content and others lower. The relative standard deviation of EGCG content in the 10 samples of Group 2 was 2.4%, meeting the excellent standard, indicating that the mixing parameters of this group can fully disperse the components and achieve good powder uniformity. The relative standard deviation of EGCG content in the 10 samples of Group 3 was 2.2%, with slightly better uniformity than Group 2, but the difference was minimal.
[0062] Solubility: After dissolving, the sample in Group 1 showed a small amount of fine precipitate, which increased slightly after standing for 10 minutes, resulting in a solubility score of 7.3. The sample in Group 2 dispersed completely after dissolving, with no precipitate or agglomeration, and the solution was a uniform pale yellow, resulting in a solubility score of 9.1. The solubility of the sample in Group 3 was similar to that of Group 2, with a score of 9.2. However, the stirring time for the suspension in Group 3 was 3 minutes longer than that in Group 2, leading to increased production time per batch, reduced production efficiency, and no significant improvement in uniformity or solubility.
[0063] In conclusion, considering the overall uniformity of components, solubility, and production efficiency, the optimal mixing parameters are an initial mixing speed of 500 rpm and an initial mixing time of 15 minutes, and a suspension stirring speed of 800 rpm and a suspension stirring time of 20 minutes. This combination of parameters ensures thorough mixing of all components and excellent powder uniformity while achieving good solubility, and avoids a decrease in production efficiency due to excessive stirring time, making it suitable for industrial production.
[0064] Example 5: Product storage condition stability verification.
[0065] Experimental Design: The qualified finished product prepared in Example 1 was selected and divided into three groups, with 20 bags per group and 20 grams per bag. These were placed in different storage environments for a period of 24 months. Various performance indicators of the product were periodically tested, and the effects of storage temperature and relative humidity on product stability were investigated. Specific storage parameters are shown in the table below.
[0066] Performance testing methods: Appearance observation: Observe the appearance of the powder every 3 months and record whether there is clumping, moisture absorption and discoloration. Use a standard colorimetric card to compare the color changes. A difference of ≤0.5 indicates no obvious color change, and a difference >1.0 indicates a significant darkening of the color.
[0067] Physicochemical indicators: The particle size, moisture content, and pH value after dissolution are tested every 6 months. The change in the initial value is compared with the change in the pH value. The change in the pH value is ≤5% and the indicator is considered stable.
[0068] Active ingredients and microorganisms: The content of EGCG matrine was detected by high performance liquid chromatography every 6 months, and the content change rate was calculated as follows: change rate = (initial content - content after storage) ÷ initial content × 100%; the total number of bacteria, molds and yeasts and pathogens were detected according to the standard method for microbial testing.
[0069] Results and Analysis: Appearance Changes: Group 1: During the 24-month storage period, the powder remained loose, without clumping or moisture absorption; the color remained a uniform pale yellow, with a color difference of 0.4 compared to the initial state, showing no significant change. Group 2: After 6 months of storage, the powder began to show slight moisture absorption, feeling sticky to the touch; after 12 months, moisture absorption worsened, with noticeable clumping, the clumps being quite hard and requiring vigorous grinding to disperse; after 24 months, the color deepened significantly, with a color difference of 1.4, and a slight odor appeared. Group 3: After 24 months of storage, the powder showed no clumping or discoloration, with a color difference of 0.3. However, after being removed from the refrigerated environment, due to the increase in temperature and changes in ambient humidity, moisture easily condensed on the powder surface, resulting in temporary moisture absorption. It must be opened and used immediately, otherwise moisture absorption will worsen.
[0070] Physicochemical indicators: Group 1, after 24 months of storage, had a particle size of 90 micrometers (initial particle size 88 micrometers), a change of 2.3%; a moisture content of 3.7% (initial moisture content 3.5%), a change of 5.7%; and a pH value of 5.5 (initial pH value 5.6), a change of 1.8%. All indicators showed minimal changes and good stability. Group 2, after 24 months of storage, had a particle size of 118 micrometers, a change of 34.1%; a moisture content of 5.6%, exceeding the initial moisture content of 3.5% and the standard of ≤5.0%; and a pH value of 5.2, a change of 7.1%. All physicochemical indicators showed significant abnormalities. Group 3, after 24 months of storage, had a particle size of 89 micrometers, a change of 1.1%; a moisture content of 3.5%, a change of 0%; and a pH value of 5.6, with no change. The stability of the physicochemical indicators was similar to Group 1, but the moisture absorption issue affected the user experience.
[0071] Active Ingredients and Microorganisms: In Group 1, after 24 months of storage, the EGCG content changed by 5.6%, and the matrine content changed by 5.1%, indicating good retention of active ingredients. Microbiological testing showed a total bacterial count of 70 CFU / g, a total mold and yeast count of 4 CFU / g, and no detectable pathogens, meeting the requirements. In Group 2, after 24 months of storage, the EGCG content changed by 13.2%, and the matrine content changed by 12.5%, indicating significant degradation of active ingredients. Microbiological testing showed a total bacterial count of 145 CFU / g, exceeding the standard of ≤100 CFU / g, a total mold and yeast count of 12 CFU / g, and no detectable pathogens, increasing the risk of microbial contamination. In Group 3, after 24 months of storage, the EGCG content changed by 5.0%, and the matrine content changed by 4.7%, with a slightly better retention rate of active ingredients than Group 1. Microbiological testing indicators met the requirements, but the moisture absorption problem limited its application scenarios, making it unsuitable for frequent opening after long-term storage.
[0072] In conclusion, considering the overall appearance, physicochemical properties, active ingredient retention rate, and microbial stability, the optimal storage conditions for the powder composition of this invention are a dry environment at room temperature with a relative humidity of ≤65% and a temperature of 15-25°C. Under these storage conditions, the product maintains stable performance within its 24-month shelf life, effectively preventing clumping, moisture absorption, and discoloration, reducing active ingredient degradation, controlling the risk of microbial contamination, and eliminating the need for pre-conditioning to adapt to the temperature before use, thus avoiding condensation and moisture absorption. This meets the storage and usage requirements for external use products. High temperature and high humidity environments accelerate product deterioration, while low temperature refrigeration, although better preserving active ingredients, carries the risk of moisture absorption; neither is recommended for long-term storage.
