Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of daily chemical products, specifically relating to a method for preparing hydrogenated castor seed oil and its application in shower gel. Background Technology
[0002] As a daily cleaning product, shower gel has evolved beyond basic cleansing to meet higher demands in the market, encompassing post-wash skin feel, moisturizing, and gentleness. Currently, most mainstream shower gels utilize a combination of anionic and amphoteric surfactants such as sodium lauryl ether sulfate (AES) and cocamidopropyl betaine (CAB). While these systems offer strong cleansing power and rich lather, they can easily lead to over-cleansing. Over-cleansing strips away the skin's natural sebum, damaging the skin barrier and causing post-wash skin tightness, dryness, and itching.
[0003] To improve the skin feel after washing, a common approach is to add small amounts of oils, such as jojoba oil, almond oil, or silicone oil. However, these hydrophobic components are difficult to stabilize in aqueous systems dominated by anionic surfactants, easily leading to precipitation and layering. Therefore, it's necessary to increase the amount of emulsifier, which exacerbates skin irritation. Furthermore, traditional oils lack sufficient moisturizing properties and cannot effectively repair the skin barrier. Regarding oil modification, hydrogenated castor oil possesses excellent stability and emulsifying properties, but the traditional hydrogenated castor oil preparation process has flaws. It easily leads to the destruction of natural moisturizing components such as ricinoleic acid, and there is also a risk of heavy metal nickel residue, which does not meet product safety standards. In addition, traditional hydrogenated castor oil has a large molecular weight, resulting in poor dispersibility and stability in high-surfactant shower gel systems. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The technical problem to be solved by this invention is to provide a method for preparing hydrogenated castor seed oil and its application in shower gel, which effectively preserves the natural triglyceride structure and trace moisturizing components of castor seed oil. At the same time, it avoids the formation of nickel residue and trans fatty acids, greatly enhancing the safety of the product.
[0005] The technical solution adopted by the present invention to solve the above problems is as follows: A method for preparing hydrogenated castor seed oil includes the following steps: S1. Dehull and wash the castor seeds, dry them at 45-50℃ until the moisture content is less than 5%, then grind them and pass them through a 50-200 mesh sieve to obtain castor seed powder; S2. Adjust the field strength of the low-frequency pulsed electric field to 3-5 kV / cm, the frequency to 20-50 kHz, the pulse width to 8-15 μs, and the duration to 30-60 s; adjust the power of the intermittent microwave to 300-500 W, the frequency to 2000-3000 MHz, and the duration to 30-60 s; treat the castor seed powder first in the low-frequency pulsed electric field, and then in the intermittent microwave, alternating the treatment several times to obtain pretreated castor seed powder; S3. Mix the pretreated castor seed powder with a compound enzyme preparation, which includes cellulase, pectinase, and hemicellulase. The amount of the compound enzyme preparation added is 4-6% of the mass of the pretreated castor seed powder. After mixing, add the extraction solvent and an entrainer of 3-5% of the volume of the extraction solvent. Perform subcritical extraction at a temperature of 35-40℃ for 1.5-2 hours. First, adjust the extraction pressure to 0.8-1.2 MPa and maintain it for 5-8 minutes. Then, within 2-3 minutes, increase the extraction pressure to 1.2-1.5 MPa at a constant rate and maintain it for 3-5 minutes. Finally, within 2-3 minutes, decrease the extraction pressure to 0.5 MPa at a constant rate and maintain it for 8-10 minutes. Repeat the above extraction process three times. During the extraction, stir at a low speed of 60 r / min and adjust the flow rate of the extraction solvent to 1.0-1.5 L / min. Collect the extract. S4. The extract is vacuum filtered through a 5–20 μm microporous membrane at a vacuum level of -0.06 to -0.09 MPa to obtain crude oil. The crude oil is then subjected to primary molecular distillation at a temperature of 80–85 °C and a pressure of 0.1–0.5 mbar to obtain the primary distillate. The primary distillate is then subjected to secondary molecular distillation at a temperature of 120–125 °C and a pressure of 0.01–0.05 mbar to obtain the secondary distillate. The secondary distillate is then subjected to tertiary molecular distillation at a temperature of 160–165 °C and a pressure of 0.001–0.005 mbar to obtain the tertiary distillate. The tertiary distillate is then filtered through a 0.1–0.2 μm microporous membrane to obtain the fine filtrate. S5. Transfer the filtrate to a reactor in a hydrogen atmosphere, and then mix it with a palladium-on-carbon catalyst. The amount of palladium-on-carbon catalyst added is 0.5-1% of the mass of the filtrate. Continuously introduce hydrogen gas and maintain the hydrogen pressure at 2-3 MPa. React at a temperature of 80-100℃ for 3-4 hours, and control the iodine value to 80-85 gI2 / 100g to obtain a semi-finished product. S6. After cooling the semi-finished product to room temperature, it is passed through a fixed bed of activated carbon containing palladium on carbon catalyst. The flow rate of the semi-finished product is adjusted to 1.0-2.0 BV / h, the height-to-diameter ratio of the activated carbon bed is 3-5:1, and the mesh size of the activated carbon is 20-40 mesh to obtain a primary filtrate. The primary filtrate is then pressure filtered using a 0.2-0.5 μm filter element at a pressure of 0.1-0.3 MPa. The filtrate is collected to obtain hydrogenated castor seed oil.
[0006] Further, in step S3, the mass ratio of cellulase, pectinase, and hemicellulase is 3:1:2.
[0007] Further, in step S3, the extraction solvent is dimethyl ether, and the entrainer is anhydrous ethanol.
[0008] Through the above technical solution, firstly, the alternating synergistic treatment of pulsed electric field and intermittent microwave achieves efficient cell wall disruption of castor seeds, creating favorable conditions for subsequent extraction; secondly, the established compound enzyme-assisted subcritical fluid extraction system achieves efficient and selective extraction of target components under low-temperature conditions. The combination of pulsed-microwave pretreatment and compound enzyme-assisted subcritical extraction achieves efficient cell wall disruption and extraction under low-temperature conditions (<50℃), maximizing the retention of natural active ingredients. Compared with traditional high-temperature and high-pressure processes (>150℃), this invention effectively retains the natural active ingredients in castor seed oil, such as heat-sensitive components like tocopherols and phytosterols. The multi-stage molecular distillation-membrane separation coupled purification process used in the preparation process enables precise separation of fatty acid components and efficient removal of impurities, improving the purity of effective substances. The use of a noble metal catalyst to complete the hydrogenation reaction under mild conditions avoids heavy metal residues and the formation of trans fatty acids. The preparation process uses green solvents such as subcritical dimethyl ether to replace traditional organic solvents such as n-hexane, achieving solvent-free residue. It meets the requirements of green chemistry and sustainable development, while avoiding the formation of nickel residue and trans fatty acids, greatly enhancing the safety of the product.

[0028] Specifically, the method for preparing hydrogenated castor seed oil according to the present invention in the above embodiments and comparative examples includes the following steps: S1. Dehull and wash the castor seeds, dry them at 45-50℃ until the moisture content is less than 5%, then grind them and pass them through a 100-mesh sieve to obtain castor seed powder; S2. Adjust the field strength of the low-frequency pulsed electric field to 4kV / cm, the frequency to 30kHz, the pulse width to 10μs, and the duration to 30s; adjust the power of the intermittent microwave to 400W, the frequency to 2450MHz, and the duration to 30s; treat the castor seed powder first in the low-frequency pulsed electric field, and then in the intermittent microwave, alternating the treatment three times to obtain pretreated castor seed powder; S3.

[0031] The preparation method for the comparative example can be obtained in the same way. If there are substances that are not added or replaced, they can be deleted or replaced in the corresponding preparation steps.
[0032] Testing and Inspection Volunteer grouping and process: 70 volunteers aged 20-50 (with dry skin) were recruited and randomly divided into 7 groups of 10 people each. The volunteers were tested on half-body (left / right arm or left / right leg) for 4 weeks using the compositions of Examples 1-3 and Comparative Examples 1-4.
[0033] Environmental requirements: All tests were conducted in a temperature and humidity controlled room at 21.0±1.0℃ and 50%±5%RH. Volunteers were required to sit quietly in this environment for at least 30 minutes to acclimatize and expose the areas to be tested.
[0034] Test area marking: Mark test areas of equal size on the inside of the volunteer's arms or the front of the volunteers' legs.
[0035] General Pre-Test Preparation: No skincare products should be used on the test area for 24 hours prior to the test. Before each test, volunteers cleanse the test area with a uniform, mild, non-moisturizing cleanser, rinse thoroughly with water, and gently pat dry with a lint-free tissue before sitting quietly. During the formal test, a trained operator applies the product uniformly: 1.0 gram (accurately weighed) of the test example or comparative sample is taken, foamed with a foaming net, and evenly applied to the marked test area. The area is massaged in circular motions with fingertips for 30 seconds, then rinsed with running water at a flow rate of 5 L / min and a temperature of 38 ± 1 °C for 30 seconds. Finally, the surface moisture is gently patted dry with a lint-free tissue. This procedure simulates a daily bathing process, ensuring that the dosage, application time, and rinsing conditions are completely consistent for each test.
[0036] 1. Change rate of cuticle water content 1 hour after sample application Testing instrument: Corneometer CM825 moisture test probe Test principle: The degree of hydration of the stratum corneum is measured based on the principle of capacitance.
[0037] Test Method: After completing the product application and drying process as described in the "General Pre-Test Preparation and Sample Use Method" above (T0), immediately measure the stratum corneum moisture content at three different points within the test area and take the average value as the initial value. After cleaning and drying, allow the product to stand for 1 hour (T1h), and measure the moisture content at the same three points within the same test area again, taking the average value. Calculate the increase in moisture content at T1h relative to T0.
[0038] Data calculation: Change rate of cuticle water content = (T1h value - T0 value) / T0 value × 100% 2. Transdermal water loss value 2 hours after sample application Testing instrument: Tewameter TM300 moisture loss probe Test principle: Based on Fick's law of diffusion to reflect the transdermal water loss rate.
[0039] Test Method: Follow the "General Preparation and Sample Use Method" above to use the product. After washing and drying, allow the product to stand for 2 hours (T2h). Place the probe vertically against the test area of skin and record the transepidermal water loss value after the reading stabilizes. The lower the value, the better the skin barrier function and the longer the moisturizing effect.
[0040] 3. Rate of change in skin roughness (Ra value) Testing instrument: Visioscan VC98 + silicone replication method Test principle: The smoothness of skin surface texture is evaluated through image analysis.
[0041] Test method: On the first day of the test (Day 0, D0) and 2 hours after washing (T2h) 4 weeks after using the product (Day 28, D28), silicone replicas were made in the same marked area and the Ra value was measured. The lower the Ra value, the smoother the skin.
[0042] Data calculation: Skin roughness (Ra value) change rate (%) = (Ra value of D0 - Ra value of D28) / Ra value of D0 × 100% 4. Lactic acid sting test Test method: After using the product for 4 weeks, 0.1 mL of 5% lactic acid solution was applied to the nasolabial folds of volunteers, and the stinging sensation scores of volunteers at 0, 2.5 and 5 minutes were recorded.
[0043] Stinging sensation rating scale: 0 points: No stinging sensation; 1 point: Mild tingling, weak and brief sensation; 2 points: Moderate stinging pain, noticeable but tolerable; 3 points: Severe stinging pain, intense sensation, burning sensation; 4 points: Extremely severe stinging pain, unbearable, requires immediate cleaning.
[0044] Data recording: Calculate the sum of stinging scores at all time points (0, 2.5, 5 minutes). The lower the total score, the gentler the product and the better its repair and protection of the skin barrier.
[0045] 5. Subjective Moisturizing Level Rating (0-10 points) Test principle: Visual Analog Scale (VAS) Testing Method: Two hours after each product application (T2h) following the "General Pre-Test Preparation and Sample Use Method" outlined above, volunteers provided a comprehensive score based on skin dryness, tightness, and smoothness. A score of 0 indicated "extreme dryness and tightness," while a score of 10 indicated "continuous hydration and no tightness." The average score for the entire group was recorded over four weeks.
[0046] 6. Subjective skin feel preference rating (0-10 points) Test principle: Visual Analog Scale (VAS) Testing Method: After each use of the product according to the "General Pre-Test Preparation and Sample Usage Method" described above, volunteers comprehensively evaluated the product's foaming properties, rinsing properties, slippery feel, and residue. A score of 0 indicates "strongly dislike," and a score of 10 indicates "strongly like." The average score over four weeks was recorded.
[0047] The specific test results for the above test items are shown in Table 2.
[0048] Table 2
[0049] The test results of Examples 1 to 3 show that the composition of the present invention can increase the moisture content of the stratum corneum, the skin's hydration and smoothness, and also has long-lasting moisturizing effect, improves skin roughness, strengthens the skin barrier function, solves the problem of dry and tight skin after washing, and can reduce the direct irritation of surfactants to the skin. It is suitable for use on sensitive skin, and the effect of Example 2 is better.
[0050] A comparison of the test results of Example 2 with those of Comparative Examples 1 and 3 shows that, compared to replacing an equal amount of the hydrogenated castor seed oil prepared in this invention with ordinary hydrogenated castor seed oil or not adding hydrogenated castor seed oil at all, adding the hydrogenated castor seed oil prepared in this invention provides better long-lasting moisturizing, skin roughness improvement, and skin barrier function enhancement effects, and can reduce the irritation of the composition to the skin. This indicates that the hydrogenated castor seed oil prepared in this invention retains more effective ingredients and reduces nickel residue and trans fatty acids, thereby enhancing the safety of the composition.
[0051] A comparison of the test results of Example 2 with those of Comparative Examples 1, 2, and 4 shows that, compared to replacing PEG-7 glyceryl cocoate with an equal amount of jojoba oil or not adding PEG-7 glyceryl cocoate, the addition of hydrogenated castor seed oil prepared in this invention and the synergistic stabilizer PEG-7 glyceryl cocoate provides better long-lasting moisturizing, skin roughness improvement, and user experience. This indicates that the synergistic stabilizer of this invention can enhance the stability of the hydrogenated castor seed oil prepared in this invention, and the two have a synergistic effect, jointly improving the performance of the composition of this invention.
