Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of daily chemical products technology, and more specifically, to a sugar-modified polyorganosiloxane emulsifier, its preparation method, and its application. Background Technology
[0002] Alkyl glycosides possess the characteristics of both anionic and nonionic surfactants. They are composed of a relatively rigid hydrophilic sugar moiety and a relatively flexible alkyl chain moiety with controllable chain length, linked by glycosidic bonds. They are easily soluble in water, have low surface tension, high activity, strong detergency, and are non-toxic, non-irritating, and have good biodegradability. They can be widely used as surfactants, emulsifiers, and humectants in detergents, cosmetics, and food.
[0003] Alkyl glycosides can be stored for extended periods over a wide temperature range and also possess humectant properties, fully meeting the performance requirements of active ingredients in cosmetics. Alkyl glycosides have been used as active ingredients in cosmetics both domestically and internationally, and these new cosmetics exhibit excellent skin moisturizing and skin-care properties. Currently, some quality problems still exist in personal cleansers, the most serious being the presence of excessive levels of toxic substances such as mercury (Hg), phosphorus (Pb), and astaxanthin (As), which not only severely damage the skin and hair but also pollute the environment. The new generation of shampoos and bath liquids made with alkyl glycosides as a base have strong foaming power, producing white, fine foam that softens the skin, is non-irritating to the eyes, does not pollute the environment, has good hard water resistance, and possesses excellent conditioning and care functions.
[0004] In shampoos, alkyl glycosides are essential ingredients in low-irritant and children's shampoos because they are non-irritating to human skin and eyes and can reduce the irritation of other surfactants they are formulated with. The mildness of alkyl glycosides protects damaged hair and they can be used as surfactants in hair dyeing and perming. When combined with protein hydrolysates, their styling properties are comparable to commonly used styling agents such as polyvinylpyrrolidone, but they are easier to rinse. Alkyl glycosides can be used to formulate a new generation of shampoos and bath gels with strong foaming power and fine lather.
[0005] In hair conditioners, alkyl glycosides have a softening effect on the skin, are non-irritating to the eyes, and provide excellent conditioning and nourishing effects on the hair. Their synergistic effect with quaternary ammonium salts helps improve wet combability, while dry combability remains largely unchanged. Adding oils, such as octyldodecyl alcohol, to the conditioner will further improve wet combability.
[0006] The use of alkyl glycosides as emulsifiers in cosmetics can reduce the irritation of the formula, increase its moisturizing effect, and improve the efficacy of functional products.
[0007] Currently, most industrial glycoside preparations utilize indirect glycosylation. Under an acidic catalyst, glucose reacts with short-chain fatty alcohols to generate short-chain alkyl glycosides. These short-chain fatty alcohols are then replaced with long-chain fatty alcohols through a glycoside exchange reaction to obtain long-chain alkyl glycosides. This method requires no complex raw materials and is relatively low-cost. However, the reaction between glucose and fatty alcohols is a condensation reaction, which produces water. To avoid affecting the reaction process and efficiency, this water must be removed promptly. Water removal must be carried out under reduced pressure, increasing the difficulty of process control. Patent US5831080 describes an acidic catalytic method for alkyl glycoside preparation. Water is produced as a byproduct during this process, requiring post-treatment in subsequent steps, making the process relatively complex. Furthermore, glucose, being a polyhydroxy compound, also undergoes side reactions during alkyl glycoside preparation. Residual glucose in the glycoside can transform into other impurities, altering the glycoside's odor and color. According to the literature published by China Academic Journals Electronic Press (1006-7264(2009)06-0021-04), under acidic conditions, the hydroxyl groups within glucose molecules undergo condensation to form furfural derivatives. These furfural derivatives then undergo dehydration condensation under acidic conditions, turning black and forming a black, tarnished substance. Patent CN112979720B indicates that the prepared alkyl glycosides require decolorization, which is achieved using a decolorizing agent. CN106831899B similarly states that alkyl glycosides also require decolorization. Therefore, side reactions during the preparation of alkyl glycosides should be avoided and minimized as much as possible.
[0008] Another method for preparing sugar-modified polyoxygen organosiloxane emulsifiers involves reacting amino silicone oil and glycolactones under heating conditions. This requires adding alcohols or esters as solvents during the reaction to promote its progress. After the reaction is complete, the solvent and odor are removed under reduced pressure, and the final product collected is the sugar-modified polyoxygen organosiloxane. Summary of the Invention
[0009] The primary objective of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings and deficiencies of existing alkyl glycoside emulsifier preparation processes, such as complex dehydration processes and glucose self-condensation, and to provide a method for preparing organosilicon-modified glycosides.

[0017] This invention employs an acetal reaction between ketone compounds and the hydroxyl groups on carbohydrate compounds to protect the hydroxyl groups and reduce self-condensation during the preparation of alkyl glycosides. Simultaneously, it utilizes glycidyl ether compounds containing carbon-carbon double bonds to react with carbohydrate compounds to prepare alkyl glycosides. These glycidyl ether compounds possess hydrolyzable epoxy groups; the hydrolysis of these epoxy groups produces hydroxyl groups, which react with the carbohydrate compounds to generate alkyl glycosides. The hydrolysis of these epoxy groups consumes the water generated during the alkyl glycoside reaction, promoting the normal progress of the reaction.

[0024] Preferably, the acid catalyst in step S1 is one of sulfuric acid, hydrochloric acid, trifluoromethanesulfonic acid, phosphoric acid, or acidic clay.
[0025] Preferably, the amount of acid catalyst added in step S1 is 0.5 to 1.5 wt% of the reaction system.
[0026] Preferably, the heating temperature in step S2 is 100–120°C.
[0027] Preferably, the heating reaction time in step S2 is 1 to 1.5 hours.
[0028] In this invention, step S2 is performed under normal pressure.
[0029] Preferably, in step S3, the hydrogen-containing siloxane is at least one of double-ended hydrogen-containing silicone oil, side-chain hydrogen-containing silicone oil, or single-ended hydrogen-containing silicone oil.
[0030] Preferably, in step S3, the molar ratio of the carbon-carbon double bond group of the alkyl glycoside to the hydrogen-containing group of the hydrogen-containing siloxane is 1:1.
[0031] A sugar-modified polyorganosiloxane emulsifier is obtained by dispersing the organosilicon-modified glycoside prepared by the above preparation method in cyclodimethylsiloxane, polydimethylsiloxane or isododecane.
[0032] Preferably, in the sugar-modified polyorganosiloxane emulsifier, the organosilicon-modified glycoside accounts for 17-22% by mass.
[0033] This invention also protects the application of the above-mentioned sugar-modified polyorganosiloxane emulsifier in daily chemical products.
[0034] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0090] Performance testing
[0091] Stability test: Emulsions were prepared by adding the emulsifiers from Examples 1-4 and Comparative Examples 1-2 to the formulations shown in Table 1. The preparation steps of the emulsions are as follows:
[0092] 1. Pre-disperse the oil phase and aqueous phase separately;
[0093] 2. Stir and disperse the oil phase with a blunt-tipped impeller at 150-200 rpm, and add the water phase in small batches (multiple times). Each time water is added, it must be emulsified and dispersed evenly.
[0094] 3. After the aqueous phase is completely added, accelerate stirring (1300 rpm) for 10 minutes;
[0095] 4. Add preservatives and flavorings, stir well and it is ready to be discharged.
[0096] The stability of the prepared emulsion was tracked and tested after standing at 60℃ for 24h, 48h, 72h and -15℃ for 24h. The test results are shown in Table 2.

[0101]
[0102] As shown in Table 2, the emulsions prepared by the emulsifiers in Examples 1 to 4 did not exhibit stratification and had good stability.
