Description

Title of the invention: COMPOSITION COMPRISING A PARTICULAR SILICONE EMULSION, A CATIONIC POLYSACCHARIDE, A POLYESTERAMINE AND A FATTY ALCOHOL

[0001] The present invention relates to a composition for treating keratinous fibers and, in particular, human keratinous fibers such as hair, which comprises a specific oil-in-water silicone emulsion, at least one cationic polysaccharide, at least one polyesteramine and at least one fatty alcohol.

[0002] The invention also relates to a method for treating keratinous fibers, preferably for washing and / or revitalizing keratinous fibers, comprising the application to the keratinous fibers of a composition according to the invention.

[0003] It is common to use detergent cosmetic compositions, such as shampoos and shower gels, essentially based on surfactants, to wash keratinous materials, such as hair and skin in particular. These compositions are applied to the keratinous materials, which are preferably wet, and the foam generated by massage or rubbing with the hands or a washcloth makes it possible, after rinsing with water, to eliminate the various types of dirt initially present on the hair or skin.

[0004] These compositions contain significant levels of “detergent” surfactants which, in order to be able to formulate cosmetic compositions with good washing power, must in particular give them good foaming power.

[0005] The surfactants useful for this purpose are generally of the anionic, non-ionic and / or amphoteric type, and in particular of the anionic type.

[0006] These compositions generally have good washing power, but the intrinsic cosmetic properties associated with them nevertheless remain quite poor, in particular because the relatively aggressive nature of such a cleaning treatment can, in the long term, lead to more or less pronounced damage caused to the hair fiber, this damage being associated in particular with the progressive elimination of the lipids or proteins contained in or on the surface of this fiber.

[0007] Thus, in order to improve the cosmetic properties of the above detergent compositions, and more particularly those which must be applied to sensitized hair (i.e. hair which has been damaged or weakened, in particular under the chemical action of atmospheric agents and / or hair treatments such as permanent waving, dyeing or bleaching), it is now common to introduce additional cosmetic agents called conditioners into these compositions. These conditioners are primarily intended to repair or limit the harmful or undesirable effects induced by the various treatments or attacks to which hair fibers are subjected more or less repeatedly. They can, of course, also improve the cosmetic behavior of natural hair.

[0008] The conditioners most commonly used in shampoos today include cationic polymers, silicones and / or silicone derivatives, which impart softness and smoothness that are significantly better than those obtainable with corresponding cleansing compositions that lack them.

[0009] The use of a mixture of silicone and cationic polymer is in particular known. However, the compositions which contain them still have numerous drawbacks, such as insufficient deposition of silicones on the hair and therefore a strong impact on their cosmetic properties, and more particularly with regard to the detangling of wet or dry hair.

[0010] There is therefore a real need to provide compositions, such as cosmetic and / or revitalizing compositions for keratinous fibers, and in particular for human keratinous fibers, which make it possible to overcome the drawbacks described above, namely which effectively remove dirt and excess sebum, particularly suitable for damaged hair, and improve the cosmetic properties of said fibers, such as softness, smoothness, ease of styling and, in particular, ease of detangling. These cosmetic properties can also be long-lasting.

[0011] These objectives are achieved with the present invention, a subject of which is a composition, preferably cosmetic, comprising: a. an oil-in-water emulsion having a D50 particle size of less than 350 nm and comprising: b. a silicone mixture comprising (i) a trialkylsilyl terminated dialkylpolysiloxane having a viscosity of 40,000 to less than 100,000 mPa.s at 25°C and (ii) an amino silicone having a viscosity of 1,000 to 15,000 mPa.s at 25°C and an amine number of 2 to 10 mg of KOH per gram of amino silicone, c. an emulsifier mixture comprising one or more non-ionic emulsifiers, wherein the emulsifier mixture has an HLB value of 10 to 16, and d. water; e. at least one cationic polysaccharide; f. at least one polyesteramine; and g. at least one fatty alcohol, preferably containing from 8 to 24 carbon atoms.

[0012] It has been noted that the composition according to the invention, when applied to keratinous fibers, particularly on human keratinous fibers such as hair, leads to an improvement in the condition and quality of the hair, in terms of hair feel (e.g., smooth feel, soft feel, revitalized feel, non-greasy, non-burdened) and manageability (e.g., combability, detangling, desirable volume, manageability, less frizz).

[0013] In particular, it has been observed that keratinous fibers, in particular hair (wet or dry), treated with the composition according to the invention are easier to detangle and easier to style. More particularly, the Applicant has discovered the existence of a synergistic effect on the detangling of hair thanks to the specific combination of a cationic polysaccharide with a polyesteramine.

[0014] Furthermore, the composition according to the invention has good detergent power and the keratinous fibers, in particular the hair, treated with the composition according to the invention are particularly clean and light.

[0015] The observed properties of the composition according to the invention are particularly durable.

[0016] The present invention also relates to a method for treating keratinous fibers, in particular human keratinous fibers such as hair, preferably for washing and / or conditioning the keratinous fibers, comprising the application to the keratinous fibers of a composition according to the invention.

[0110] The particle size of an emulsion could be measured using a ZetaSizer device from Malvern, UK, model Nano-ZS, based on the photon correlation spectroscopy (PCS) method. The D50 value of the particle size (average hydrodynamic diameter of the particles) is measured, the evaluation algorithm being "cumulant analysis".

[0111] For example, take 0.5 g of the emulsion sample into a 250 ml beaker, pour 100 ml of deionized water into it, and then mix them well to obtain the sample test solution. The sample test solution is poured into the cuvette cell and placed in the slot of the instrument to measure the particle size of the emulsion. D50 is defined as the value of the 50% particle diameter in the cumulative distribution. For example, if D50 = 170 nm, then 50% of the particles in the sample are larger than 170 nm and 50% smaller than 170 nm or about 50% by volume of all the droplets in said emulsion are 170 nm. - Viscosity measurement

[0112] The viscosity, in particular of silicones or of the emulsion, is measured at 25°C and at atmospheric pressure (1.013 x 105 Pa).

[0113] For viscosities between 1000 and 40,000 mPa.s at 25 °C: the viscosity could be measured using an Anton Paar rheometer; model MCR101, single-gap cylinder geometry: Spindle CC27 and shear rate of 1 s 1 for 2 minutes, at 25 °C.

[0114] For viscosities between 40,000 and 100,000 mPa.s at 25°C: the viscosity could be measured using an Anton Paar rheometer; model MCR101, cone 25-6 (cone-plate geometry: 25 mm dia. / cone 6°); the “zero air gap” setting being carried out and with a shear rate of 1 s 1 for minutes, at 25°C.

[0115] Three measurements are made for each sample and the viscosity value is taken at 60 seconds. The MCR Rheometer range of products operate in accordance with USP (US Pharmacopeia Convention) 912 - Rotational Rheometer Methods. - Measurement of the amine index

[0116] The amine value is determined by acid-base titration using a potentiometer [Brand: Veego; Model: VPT-MG]. 0.6 g of sample is taken into a 500 ml beaker and a 1:1 toluene-butanol mixture is added and stirred to mix the sample well; the sample solution is then titrated with a 0.1 (N) HCl solution. A blank value determination with the 1:1 toluene-butanol mixture is also performed. The calculation of the amine value is performed using the aforementioned potentiometer.

[0117] The amine index is calculated according to the formula:

[0118] 56.11 x (V - VBianc) x N / W mg KOH / g of sample,

[0119] in which

[0120] V = volume of HCl required in ml, Vbianc = volume of HCl for blank value (without sample) with the toluene-butanol mixture 1:1 in ml; N = Normality of HCl, i.e. 0.1 N, W = weight of the sample taken in grams. - HLB value

[0121] The term HLB is well known to those skilled in the art and designates the hydrophilic-lipophilic balance of a surfactant or emulsifier. In the present invention, the HLB values ​​refer to the values ​​at 25°C and at atmospheric pressure.

[0122] HLB can be measured by experimental determination or can be calculated.

[0123] The calculation of the HLB value of a nonionic surfactant is made according to the following equation: HLB = (E + P) / 5, E being the weight percentage of the oxyethylene content and P being the weight percentage of the polyhydric alcohol content, described in the publication Griffin, J. Soc. Cosm. Chem. 1954 (vol. 5, no. 4), pages 249-256.

[0124] It can also be determined experimentally according to the book by F. Puisieux and M. Seiller entitled “Galenica 5: Dispersed systems - Volume I - Surface agents and emulsions - Chapter IV - Concepts of HLB and critical HLB, pages 153-194 - paragraph 1.1.2. Determination of HLB by experimental means, pages 164-180”.

[0125] The calculated HLB corresponds to the preferred HLB values ​​that should be taken into account.

[0126] Said calculated HLB could be defined as follows:

[0127] “Calculated HLB = 20 x molar mass of the hydrophilic part / total molar mass.”

[0128] For an oxyethylenated fatty alcohol, the hydrophilic part corresponds to the oxyethylene units condensed on the fatty alcohol and the “calculated HLB” then corresponds to the “Griffin HLB” as defined above.

[0129] For an ester or an amide, the hydrophilic part is naturally defined as being located beyond the carbonyl group, starting with the fatty chain(s).

[0130] For ionic surfactants / emulsifiers, the HLB value of each individual surfactant / emulsifier can be calculated by applying the Davies formula as described in Davies JT (1957), “A quantitative kinetic theory of emulsion type, I. Physical chemistry of the emulsifying agent,” Gas / Liquid and Liquid / Liquid Interface (Proceedings of the International Congress on Surface Activity): 426-438.

[0131] According to the formula, HLB is derived by summing the hydrophilic / hydrophobic contribution offered by the structural components of the emulsifier:

[0132] HLB = (number of hydrophilic groups) - n(number of groups per CH2 group) + 7.

[0133] Approximate HLB values ​​for some cationic emulsifiers are given in Table IV, in "Cationic emulsifiers in cosmetics", GODFREY, J. Soc. Cosmetic Chemists (1966) 17, pages 17-27.

[0134] When two emulsifiers A and B of known HLB are mixed for use, the HLB Mix is ​​said to be the HLB required for the mixture. This is expressed by the equation (WAHLBA + WbHLBb) / (Wa + WB) = HLBMix, where WA = the amount (weight) of the first emulsifier (A) used and WB = the amount (weight) of the second emulsifier (B); HLBa, HLBb = the HLB values ​​assigned to emulsifiers A and B; HLBMix = the HLB of the mixture.

[0284] Example 1; Preparation of an oil-in-water emulsion

[0285] 450 g of liquid amino silicone (trimethylsilyl-terminated aminoethyl-aminopropylmethylsiloxane-dimethylsiloxane copolymer having an amine number of 7.2 mg KOH / g sample and a viscosity of 5,600 mPa.s at 25 °C) was introduced into an emulsion tank. Stirring was started and 1,800 g of liquid trimethylsilyl-terminated dimethylsiloxane polymer with a viscosity of 61,500 mPa.s at 25 °C was introduced under stirring into the same tank. The two liquids were mixed for 2 hours at room temperature.

[0286] In a separate tank, 49 g of steareth-6 and 62 g of PEG-100 stearate were introduced and heated to 60 °C. The temperature was maintained until both emulsifiers became liquid. 31 g of trideceth-3 and 350 g of trideceth-10 (80% active material) were then added. This mixture of non-ionic emulsifiers had an HLB value = 11.25.

[0287] 80 g of water and 6.2 g of glacial acetic acid were then added to the tank and mixing began. Mixing was continued until the entire mass became a creamy paste. The entire paste was added to the emulsion tank. Homogenization was ensured for 30 minutes at room temperature. 79.6 g of demineralized water was added and homogenization was ensured for 60 minutes. 72.7 g of demineralized water was added and homogenization was ensured for 50 minutes. 197.4 g of demineralized water was added and homogenization was ensured for 5 minutes. 294.3 g of demineralized water was added and homogenization was ensured for 5 minutes. 180 g of demineralized water was added and homogenization was ensured for 5 minutes. 180 g of demineralized water was added and homogenization was ensured for 5 minutes. 197.4 g of demineralized water was added and homogenization was ensured for 5 minutes.197.4 g of demineralized water was added and homogenization was carried out for 3 minutes. 228.5 g of demineralized water was added and homogenization was carried out for 3 minutes. Finally, 40.5 g of 2-phenoxyethanol was added as a biocide and homogenization was carried out for 3 minutes. A stable oil-in-water emulsion with a D50 particle size of 170 nm was obtained.

[0288] Example 2:

[0289] The following composition A according to the invention and comparative compositions B and C were prepared from the ingredients indicated in Table 1 below (% by weight of active material).

[0291] Protocol:

[0292] The hair strands were shampooed, rinsed with water and placed on a heating plate (30°C).

[0293] Then, 1.2 g of compositions A, B or C were applied respectively to a lock of hair (3 g, 20 cm, moderately bleached hair, from roots to ends). The locks were gently massaged by passing each lock approximately six times between two fingers for fifteen seconds, from roots to ends (without creating knots) so as to lather the compositions.

[0294] The strands were then rinsed with tap water and the fingers were run through the hair fifteen times for ten seconds.

[0295] Finally, each strand was passed between two fingers to remove excess water (2 passes).

[0296] Each strand of wet hair was placed on a combing machine (Diastron MTT 175 from Dia-Stron Limited UK) and a comb with a sensor was placed into the hair fibers.

[0297] Combing was performed by sweeping the strand from root to tip and recording the force required to move the comb along the strand.

[0298] 3 strands of hair were treated with each composition A, B or C, and the force measurements were carried out 5 times per strand of hair treated.

[0299] In total, measurements were carried out 15 times per test composition.

[0300] The average maximum force was calculated from the 15 measured data of the 3 strands of hair treated with each composition. The average maximum force in gram-force (gf) was calculated: 1 gf corresponds to approximately 0.0098 Newton.

[0301] The lower the force, the easier it is to comb / untangle the keratinous fibers.

[0302] The same protocol was repeated with the same strands, once completely dry.

[0303] Test conditions: 23°C, 54% humidity

[0304] Combing speed = 1500 mm / minute

[0305] The results are shown in Tables 2 (dry combing) and 3 (wet combing) below.

[0306] [Table 2]

[0307] Dry combing (average value of 15 measurements) Compositions Maximum forces (in gf) A (Invention) 32.7 ± 8.4 B (Comparative) 69.1 ±19.8 C (Comparative) 63.7 ± 19.4

[0308] [Table 3]

[0309] Wet combing (average value of 15 measurements) Compositions Maximum forces (in gf) A (Invention) 76.6 + 9.3 B 124.4 + 9.3 (Comparative) C (Comparative) 124.6 ± 9.5

[0310] It is observed that the locks of hair treated with composition A according to the invention comprising the combination of a cationic polysaccharide with a polyesteramine are much easier to comb (in wet and dry conditions), compared to the locks of hair treated with comparative compositions B and C which do not comprise the combination of a cationic polysaccharide with a polyesteramine.

[0311] These tests demonstrate the effect on hair detangling of the specific combination of a cationic polysaccharide with a polyesteramine.

[0312] Furthermore, it was noted that the locks of hair treated with composition A according to the invention are smoother, softer and easier to style than the locks of hair treated with comparative compositions B and C.
