Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] Cross-reference of related applications This application claims priority to U.S. Patent Application No. 18 / 795,174, filed on August 5, 2024, which in turn claims priority to U.S. Patent Provisional Application No. 63 / 531,194, filed on August 7, 2023, and the full disclosure thereof is incorporated by reference in its entirety.

[0002] This disclosure relates to surfactants used in personal care and cosmetic products. Such surfactants may include siloxane derivatives of amino acids having surface-active properties and methods for their synthesis. [Background technology]

[0003] Surfactants (molecules with surface-active properties) are widely used in commercial applications in a variety of formulations, from detergents to hair care products and cosmetics. Among other uses are soaps, detergents, lubricants, wetting agents, foaming agents, and spreading agents. In personal care cleansing products (e.g., shampoos, body washes, facial cleansers, liquid hand soaps), surfactants or surfactant mixtures can often serve as one of the most important ingredients, providing much of the composition's cleansing properties.

[0004] Surfactants can be uncharged, zwitterionic, cationic, or anionic. In principle, any class of surfactant (e.g., cationic, anionic, nonionic, amphoteric) is suitable for cleansing or washing applications, but in practice, many personal care cleansers and household cleaning products are formulated using a combination of two or more surfactants from two or more surfactant classes.

[0005] In many cases, these surfactants are amphiphilic molecules with a relatively water-insoluble hydrophobic "tail" group and a relatively water-soluble hydrophilic "head" group. These compounds can be adsorbed at interfaces such as between two liquids, between gas and liquid, or between solid and liquid. In systems containing relatively polar and relatively nonpolar components, the hydrophobic tail preferentially interacts with the relatively nonpolar component, while the hydrophilic head preferentially interacts with the relatively polar component. At the interface between water and oil, the hydrophilic head preferentially extends into the water, while the hydrophobic tail preferentially extends into the oil. When added to a gas-water interface, the hydrophilic head preferentially extends into the water, while the hydrophobic tail preferentially extends into the gas. In the presence of a surfactant, at least some of the intermolecular interactions between water molecules may be disrupted, and at least some of the interactions between water molecules may be replaced by generally weaker interactions between at least some of the water molecules and the surfactant. This can result in a decrease in surface tension, which may stabilize or otherwise alter the interface between materials of different physical forms.

[0006] At sufficiently high concentrations, surfactants can form aggregates that act to limit the exposure of their hydrophobic tails to polar solvents. One such aggregate is a micelle. In a typical micelle, the molecules are arranged spherically, with the hydrophobic tail of the surfactant preferentially located inside the sphere and the hydrophilic head preferentially located outside the micelle, which preferentially interacts with more polar solvents. The effect a given compound has on surface tension, as well as the concentration at which the compound forms micelles, can serve as definitions of the surfactant's properties. [Overview of the project]

[0007] This disclosure provides personal care products such as shampoos, conditioners, hair dyes, hair removal products, cleansers, cosmetics, mascaras, dental appliance cleansers, and toothpastes. These products may be formulated to contain one or more surfactants from one or more classes of surfactants disclosed herein.

[0008] This disclosure provides surfactants for personal care products in the form of siloxane derivatives of amino acids having surface-active properties. The amino acids may be natural or synthetic amino acids, or may be obtained via ring-opening reactions of molecules such as lactams, e.g., caprolactam. The amino acids may be functionalized with different types of siloxane groups to form compounds having surface-active properties. Characteristically, these compounds may have the ability to reduce the critical micelle concentration (CMC) and / or the surface tension of a liquid.

[0031] As used herein, the phrase "within any range using these endpoints" means literally that any range may be selected from any two of the values ​​listed before the phrase, regardless of whether the values ​​are at the lower or higher end of the enumeration. For example, a pair of values ​​may be selected from the two lower values, the two higher values, or the lower value and the higher value.

[0032] As used herein, the term "alkyl" means any saturated carbon chain, which may be linear or branched, and which may be substituted at any point along the carbon chain. The carbon chain may have 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, or 12 carbons.

[0033] As used herein, the term “surface-active” means that the compound in question can reduce the surface tension and / or interfacial tension with a medium in which it is at least partially dissolved, thereby allowing it to adsorb to a gas-liquid interface and / or other interfaces. The term “surfactant” may be applied to such compounds.

[0034] With regard to the terminology of inaccuracy, the terms “about” and “approximately” may be used interchangeably and mean a measurement that includes the stated measurement and any measurement that is reasonably close to the stated measurement. A measurement that is reasonably close to the stated measurement deviates from the stated measurement by a reasonably small amount that is understood and readily verifiable by a person skilled in the art. Such deviations may result, for example, from measurement errors or small adjustments made to optimize performance. Where a person skilled in the art would determine that the value relating to such a reasonably small difference is not readily verifiable, the terms “about” and “approximately” may be understood to mean plus or minus 15% of the stated value, for example plus or minus 15%, plus or minus 12%, plus or minus 10%, plus or minus 9%, plus or minus 8%, plus or minus 8%, plus or minus 7%, plus or minus 6%, plus or minus 5%, plus or minus 4%, plus or minus 3%, plus or minus 2%, and further plus or minus 1%, etc.

[0035] This disclosure provides formulations for personal care products such as shampoos, conditioners, hair dyes, hair removal products, cleansers, cosmetics, mascaras, and toothpaste. I. Shampoo ingredients The shampoo composition may contain a combination of surfactants and conditioning agents. Such a product may contain one or more surfactants in combination with conditioning agents such as silicones, hydrocarbon oils, fatty esters, or combinations thereof. In a shampoo combination containing conditioning agents, the deposition of the conditioning agents may be improved by including certain cationic deposition polymers. These cationic deposition polymers may be cellulose polymers modified with cationic substituents or natural polymers such as guar polymers. The shampoo composition may be used as a shampoo for hair.

[0036] For example, a shampoo formulation may comprise a) a cosmetically acceptable medium; b) at least one of the surfactants of the Disclosure in about 1% to about 60% by weight; and c) about 0.01% to about 10% by weight of a water-soluble cationic modified starch polymer, the water-soluble cationic modified starch polymer having a molecular weight of about 1,000 to about 200,000 and a charge density of about 0.7 meq / g to about 7 meq / g.

[0037] In addition, the shampoo formulation may further contain one or more oily conditioning agents in an amount of approximately 0.01% to approximately 10% by weight. This disclosure also relates to a method for treating hair or skin, comprising the steps of applying the shampoo formulation described above to the hair or skin, and rinsing the hair or skin.

[0038] By combining a cationically modified starch polymer with one or more surfactants of this disclosure in a personal care composition, the deposition of conditioning agents on hair and / or skin is enhanced without reducing cleansing performance.

[0039] 1. Cosmetically acceptable media The shampoo formulations of this disclosure contain a cosmetically acceptable medium. The level and type of medium are selected depending on their compatibility with other ingredients and other desired properties of the product. Generally, the cosmetically acceptable medium is present in small amounts of the composition, such as about 15% by weight, about 20% by weight, about 25% by weight, about 30% by weight, about 35% by weight, about 40% by weight, about 45% by weight, about 50% by weight, about 55% by weight, about 60% by weight, about 65% by weight, about 70% by weight, about 75% by weight, about 80% by weight, or about 85% by weight, about 90% by weight, about 95% by weight, or about 99% by weight, or within any range of 15% to 99% by weight, or 20% to 90% by weight, or 30% to 80% by weight, or 40% to 70% by weight, or 50% to 60% by weight, or within any range using any two of the aforementioned values. Cosmetically acceptable media may be selected such that the composition of the present invention may be in the form of, for example, a pourable liquid, gel, paste, dry powder, or dry film.

[0040] Cosmetically acceptable media useful for the shampoo formulations of this disclosure include water and aqueous solutions of lower alkyl alcohols. The lower alkyl alcohols useful herein may be monohydric alcohols having 1 to 6 carbon atoms and may be selected from ethanol and isopropanol.

[0041] 2. Surfactants The shampoo formulations for hair of the present invention comprise one or more surfactants, and such mixtures of one or more surfactants are also referred to as a “surfactant system.” Surfactant systems may be included to provide a particular level of cleansing performance to the composition. A surfactant system comprises at least one surfactant, which may be an amphoteric surfactant, a zwitterionic surfactant, a cationic surfactant, or a nonionic surfactant, and optionally, at least one other surfactant, which may be an amphoteric surfactant, a zwitterionic surfactant, a cationic surfactant, a nonionic surfactant, or a combination thereof. In a surfactant system or alone, such surfactants should be physically and chemically compatible with the essential components of the shampoos described herein and should not unduely impair the stability, aesthetics, or performance of the product.

[0042] Suitable surfactants used in the shampoo formulations of this disclosure are those of formula I or II.

[0043] [ka]

[0044] [In the formula, R 1 and R 2 The groups may be the same or different, and each group comprises at least one group selected from the group consisting of C1-C6 alkyl groups, optionally comprising one or more oxygen, nitrogen, or sulfur atoms, or a group containing at least one of these atoms, and the alkyl chain may be optionally substituted with one or more substituents selected from the group consisting of hydroxyl, amino, amide, sulfonyl, sulfonate, carbonyl, carboxyl, and carboxylate; R 3 Alkenyl, alkynyl, ester, alcohol, arylalkyl, alkoxyalkyl ether, alkyl phosphate, alkyl phosphonate, C3-C8 carboxylic acid, C1-C 10 Alkylbenzoic acid and additional surfactant molecules having the structure represented by formula I are bonded to C1-C12. 12The additional surfactant molecules of formula I may be selected from the group consisting of linkers, and the additional surfactant molecules of formula I may be the same as or different from the surfactant molecules of formula I; n and z may be independently chosen from any integer between 1 and 12; m can be any integer between 1 and 12; X may be selected from the group consisting of chloride, bromide, and iodide.

[0046] More specifically, R 3 The following set of formulas may be selected.

[0047] [ka]

[0048] In particular, a suitable surfactant or co-surfactant may include one or more of the surfactants 1 to 12 described herein. The concentration of surfactants in the shampoo formulation should be sufficient to obtain the desired cleansing and lathering performance, and is generally within the range of about 5% by weight or more, about 10% by weight or more, about 15% by weight or more, about 20% by weight or more, or about 25% by weight or less, about 30% by weight or less, about 40% by weight or less, about 45% by weight or less, or about 50% by weight or less, or within the range of about 5% by weight to about 50% by weight, or about 10% by weight to about 40% by weight, or 15% by weight to 30% by weight, or 10% by weight to 20% by weight, or any two of the aforementioned values.

[0049] 3. Conditioning agent The shampoo formulations of this disclosure may include oily conditioning agents. Such conditioning agents include materials used to provide specific conditioning effects to hair and / or skin. In a hair treatment composition, a suitable conditioning agent is one or more effects relating to shine, softness, combability, antistatic properties, wet handling, damage, manageability, body, and stickiness. Oily conditioning agents useful in the shampoo formulations of this disclosure may include non-volatile liquids that are water-insoluble or water-dispersible, forming emulsified liquid particles. Suitable oily conditioning agents are conditioning agents generally characterized by silicones (e.g., silicone oils, cationic silicones, silicone gums, high refractive index silicones, and silicone resins), organic conditioning oils (e.g., hydrocarbon oils, polyolefins, and fatty esters), or combinations thereof, or otherwise conditioning agents that form liquid dispersion particles in the aqueous surfactant matrix as defined herein.

[0050] One or more oily conditioning agents may be present in concentrations ranging from approximately 0.01% by weight or more, approximately 1% by weight or more, approximately 5% by weight or more, or approximately 6% by weight or less, approximately 8% by weight or less, or approximately 10% by weight or less, or within any of the ranges of approximately 0.01% by weight to approximately 10% by weight, or 1% by weight to 8% by weight, or 5% by weight to 6% by weight, or within any range using any two of the aforementioned values.

[0051] The ratio of oily conditioning agent to cationic hydrolyzed starch polymer can be at least about 2:1. Other conditioning agents, such as quaternary ammonium compounds, may also be included in the shampoo formulation. Suitable quaternary ammonium compounds used as conditioning agents in the personal care composition of the present invention include, but are not limited to, hydrophilic quaternary ammonium compounds having long-chain substituents with a carbonyl moiety such as an amide moiety, a phosphate ester moiety, or a similar hydrophilic moiety.

[0052] Examples of useful hydrophilic quaternary ammonium compounds include, but are not limited to, compounds designated as ricinolamidopropyltrimonium chloride, ricinolamidopropyltrimonium ethyl sulfate, hydroxystearamidopropyltrimonium methyl sulfate, and hydroxystearamidopropyltrimonium chloride in the CTFA Cosmetic Dictionary, or combinations thereof.

[0053] Further examples of useful quaternary ammonium surfactants include, but are not limited to, quaternium-16, quaternium-27, quaternium-30, quaternium-52, quaternium-53, quaternium-56, quaternium-60, quaternium-61, quaternium-62, quaternium-63, quaternium-71, quaternium-33, quaternium-43, isostearamidopropyl ethyldimonium ethosulfate, 1-quaternium-22 and quaternium-26, or combinations thereof, as specified in the CTFA Dictionary.

[0054] 4. Cationic Modified Polymers The shampoo formulations of this disclosure include water-soluble cationic modified starch polymers. As used herein, the term “cationically modified starch” means starch to which a cationic group has been added before the starch is broken down to a small molecular weight, or starch to which a cationic group has been added after the starch has been modified to a desired molecular weight. The definition of the term “cationically modified starch” also includes amphoteric modified starch. The term “amphoteric modified starch” means starch hydrolysates to which cationic and anionic groups have been added.

[0055] The shampoo formulations of this disclosure contain cationically modified starch polymer in an amount of about 0.01% by weight or more, about 1% by weight or more, about 5% by weight or more, or about 6% by weight or less, about 8% by weight or less, or about 10% by weight or less of the composition, or within any range of 0.01% to 10% by weight, or 1% to 8% by weight, or 5% to 6% by weight, or within any range using any two of the aforementioned values.

[0056] The cationically modified starch polymers used in the shampoo formulations of this disclosure have a molecular weight of about 1,000 to about 200,000. In one example, the cationically modified starch polymer has a molecular weight of about 5,000 to about 100,000. As used herein, the term "molecular weight" means weight-average molecular weight. Weight-average molecular weight can be measured using gel permeation chromatography ("GPC") with an Alliance HPLC (Waters 2695 Separation Module) equipped with two series-connected hydrogel columns (Waters Ultrahydrogel Linear 6-13um, 7.8×300nm GPC columns, part number 011545) at a column temperature of 30°C and a flow rate of 0.9 ml / min. A Viscotek Model 300 TDA (triple detector array), a light scattering detector (single angle, 90°), a viscosity detector, and a refractive index detector are all used at a detector temperature of 30°C. The method was prepared using pullulan narrow-distribution standard P-800 (Mw=788,000) from American Polymer Standards Corporation, and yielded a dn / dc of 0.147 with an injection volume of 25–100 μl. Further details regarding the weight-average molecular weight measurement method by GPC are described in U.S. Patent Application Publication No. 2003 / 0154883(A1), entitled "Non-Thermoplastic Starch Fibers and Starch Composition for Making Same".

[0057] The shampoo formulations of this disclosure contain a cationically modified starch polymer having a charge density of about 0.7 meq / g or more and about 7 meq / g or less. Chemical modifications to obtain such a charge density include, but are not limited to, the addition of amino groups and / or ammonium groups to the starch molecule. These ammonium groups may include substituents such as hydroxypropyltrimonium chloride, trimethylhydroxypropylammonium chloride, dimethylstearylhydroxypropylammonium chloride, and dimethyldodecylhydroxypropylammonium chloride. The cationic groups may be added to the starch before it is broken down into small molecular weights, or they may be added after such modifications.

[0058] The cationically modified starch polymer used in the shampoo formulations of this disclosure may also contain maltodextrin. Therefore, in one example, the cationically modified starch polymer may further be characterized by a dextrose equivalent ("DE") value of less than about 35, or between about 1 and about 20. The DE value is an index of the reducing equivalent of hydrolyzed starch relative to dextrose, and is expressed as a percentage (on a dry basis). Starch completely hydrolyzed to dextrose has a DE value of 100, while unhydrolyzed starch has a DE value of 0.

[0078] 7. Hair Treatment Methods The shampoo formulations of this disclosure are used in conventional methods for cleansing and conditioning hair. Generally, a method of treating hair involves applying the shampoo formulations of this disclosure to the hair. More specifically, an effective amount of the shampoo formulation is applied to hair that may be wet, and then the shampoo formulation is rinsed off. Such an effective amount is generally in the range of about 1 g to about 50 g, or about 1 g to about 20 g. Application to hair typically involves spreading the shampoo formulation throughout the hair so that most or all of the hair comes into contact with the shampoo formulation.

[0079] This method of treating hair comprises (a) applying an effective amount of shampoo formulation to the hair, and (b) rinsing the applied area of ​​hair with water. These steps may be repeated a desired number of times to achieve the desired cleansing and conditioning effect.

[0080] In some forms of the shampoo formulations of this disclosure, the shampoo formulations may be packaged in pump dispenser bottles or aerosol containers. In other useful forms, the shampoo formulations may be dried to form a film or powder, or applied to a substrate to be used for application to hair.

[0081] II. Conditioner formulations This disclosure provides hair conditioner formulations. The conditioner formulations of this disclosure can provide long-lasting styling and conditioning effects, can suppress frizz and impart defined curls, and can improve hair health and manageability. After the hair has optionally been cleansed, for example with shampoo, the conditioner may be applied to the hair to impart multiple effects to the hair. For example, the hair may first be treated with a rinse-off conditioner (after optionally being cleansed) to impart conditioning and detangler properties to the hair.

[0083] 1. Fatty compounds Rinse-off conditioners may contain both natural solid or semi-solid fatty compounds (e.g., waxes or butters) and natural liquid oils. For example, a combination of shea butter and sunflower seed oil may be particularly useful. Alternatively, a suitable viscosity for the rinse-off conditioner may be achieved using natural fatty components, surfactants, and nonionic thickeners. For example, nonionic polysaccharide thickeners (e.g., sclerotium gum) may be particularly useful.

[0084] Rinse-off conditioning masks contain a large amount (typically at least 4 or 5% by weight) of natural fatty components. These natural fatty components may include both natural solid or semi-solid fatty compounds (e.g., waxes or butters) and natural liquid oils. For the purposes of this disclosure, solid or semi-solid fatty compounds are fatty substances with a melting point of 31°C or higher. Oils, on the other hand, are fatty substances with a melting point of less than 31°C. Therefore, oils are liquid at room temperature. The mention of a total amount of natural fatty components does not necessarily indicate that the rinse-off conditioner contains no non-natural fatty components. In other words, in some cases, the rinse-off conditioner may contain one or more non-natural fatty compounds in addition to the natural fatty compounds. Nevertheless, it may be desirable to omit non-natural fatty compounds to obtain a natural product.

[0085] As used in this disclosure, the term “natural” means a natural raw material component, such as a raw material component derived from a plant or vegetable, for example, a natural fatty component or a solid or semi-solid natural fatty compound or natural oil as used in this disclosure. As used in this disclosure, the term “non-natural” means a raw material component that is not natural and may contain alkanes or hydrocarbons or synthetic oils, such as mineral oil or silicone oil.

[0086] The total amount of natural fatty components may be approximately 4% by weight or more, approximately 5% by weight or more, approximately 10% by weight or more, or approximately 15% by weight or less, approximately 20% by weight or less, or approximately 25% by weight or less, or any combination of these endpoints, based on the total weight of the rinse-off conditioner.

[0251] [ka]

[0252] These compounds can be synthesized by various methods. One such method involves reacting an amino acid, such as an N-alkylated or N-acylated amino acid, with a siloxane to convert the C-terminus of the amino acid into a desired siloxane derivative. The N-terminus of the amino acid may be further alkylated to obtain, for example, a quaternary amine.

[0253] The amino acids may be natural or synthetic, or they may be derived from the ring-opening reaction of lactams such as caprolactam. The ring-opening reaction may be acid-catalyzed or alkali-catalyzed, and an example of an acid-catalyzed reaction is shown in Scheme 1 below.

[0254] [ka]

[0255] An amino acid may have at least one or as many as twelve carbon atoms between its N-terminus and C-terminus, such as 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, or 12 carbon atoms. The alkyl chain may be branched or linear. The alkyl chain may contain nitrogen, oxygen, or sulfur atoms. The alkyl chain may further be substituted with one or more substituents selected from the group consisting of hydroxyl, amino, amide, sulfonyl, sulfonate, carboxyl, and carboxylate. The N-terminal nitrogen may be acylated or alkylated with one or more alkyl groups. For example, the amino acid may be 6-(dimethylamino)hexanoic acid.

[0256] The siloxane may be substituted with one or more alkoxy groups such as methoxy, ethoxy, isopropoxy, or tert-butoxy. The siloxane may be further substituted with one or more alkyl groups such as propyl, in which case the alkyl group may be further substituted with a suitable functional group that enables coupling of the siloxane to an amino acid, such as nitrogen. For example, the siloxane may be 3-aminopropyltris(trimethylsiloxy)silane.

[0257] The siloxane derivatives of amino acids may be synthesized as shown in Scheme 2 below. As shown therein, 6-aminohexanoic acid is alkylated at its N-terminus by treatment with formaldehyde in formic acid under reflux to obtain 6-(dimethylamino)hexanoic acid. This free carboxylic acid is then coupled to 3-aminopropyl(trismethylsiloxy)silane in refluxed toluene to obtain the desired siloxane derivative.

[0258] [ka]

[0259] The N-terminal nitrogen may be further derivatized to modify or improve water solubility and surface activity properties. A sample synthesis scheme is shown in Scheme 3 below, in which case the N-terminal nitrogen is alkylated to obtain a quaternary amine.

[0260] [ka]

[0261] Suitable alkylating agents may include, for example, benzyl bromide, ethyl bromo, allyl iodide, propargyl bromide, 1-bromo-2-(2-methoxyethoxy)ethane, bromophosphonate, 3-iodopropanol, 3-bromopropanol, 2-iodoethanol, 2-bromoethanol, 6-bromohexanoic acid, 4-(4-bromobutyl)benzoic acid, and 4-(bromomethyl)benzoic acid. Two molecules of formula I may be linked by treating the N-terminal nitrogen with a bifunctional alkylating agent such as 1,3-dibromopropane.

[0262] The compounds disclosed herein exhibit surface-active properties. These properties can be measured and described by various methods. One way to describe surfactants is by the critical micelle concentration (CMC) of the molecule. CMC may be defined as the concentration of surfactant that forms micelles, at concentrations higher than this, all additional surfactant is incorporated into the micelles.

[0263] As the surfactant concentration increases, the surface tension decreases. When the surface is completely covered with surfactant molecules, micelles begin to form. This point represents the CMC, and thus the minimum surface tension. Adding more surfactant does not further affect the surface tension. Therefore, the CMC can be measured by observing the change in surface tension as a function of surfactant concentration. One such method for measuring this value is the Wilhelmie plate method. A Wilhelmie plate is typically a thin iridium-platinum plate attached to a balance by wire and positioned perpendicular to the air-liquid interface. Using the balance, the force acting on the plate due to wetting is measured. Then, using this value, the surface tension (γ) is calculated according to Equation 1: Equation 1: γ = F / l cosθ In the formula, l is equal to the wet perimeter (2w + 2d, where w and d are the thickness and width of the plate, respectively), and the contact angle cosθ between the liquid and the plate is assumed to be 0 if there are no existing literature values.

[0264] Another parameter used to evaluate the performance of surfactants is dynamic surface tension. Dynamic surface tension is the value of surface tension over time at a particular surface or interface. In the case of a liquid to which a surfactant has been added, this can differ from the equilibrium value. Immediately after the surface is formed, the surface tension is equal to that of the pure liquid. As mentioned above, surfactants decrease the surface tension, so the surface tension decreases until it reaches the equilibrium value. The time required to reach equilibrium depends on the diffusion rate and adsorption rate of the surfactant.

[0265] One method for measuring dynamic surface tension is using a bubble-type tension meter. This device measures the maximum internal pressure of bubbles formed in a liquid by a capillary. The measured value corresponds to the surface tension at a specific surface elapsed time, which is the time from the start of bubble formation until the maximum pressure is reached. The dependence of surface tension on surface elapsed time can be measured by varying the rate at which bubbles are formed.

[0266] Surface-active compounds can also be evaluated by their wetting ability on solid substrates, measured by the contact angle. When a droplet comes into contact with a solid surface in a third medium such as air, a three-phase line is formed between the liquid, gas, and solid. The contact angle is described as the angle between the surface and the unit vector of surface tension, which plays a role in the three-phase line and is tangent to the droplet. The contact angle (also known as the wetting angle) is a measure of how well a liquid wets a solid. In the case of complete wetting, the liquid spreads completely over the solid, and the contact angle is 0°. Wetting properties are typically measured at concentrations of 1 to 100 × CMC for a given compound, but they are not concentration-dependent. Therefore, wetting properties may be measured at higher or lower concentrations. One method involves using an optical contact angle goniometer to measure the contact angle. This device uses a digital camera and software to analyze the contour shape of a stationary liquid droplet on a surface to determine the contact angle.

[0267] Possible applications of the surface-active compounds disclosed herein include formulations for use in shampoos, hair conditioners, detergents, spot-free rinse solutions, floor and carpet cleaners, graffiti removers, crop protection wetting agents, crop protection auxiliaries, and aerosol spray coatings.

[0268] Those skilled in the art will understand that even slight differences between compounds can lead to significantly different surfactant properties, and therefore different compounds may be used for different substrates and different applications. Those skilled in the art will also understand that surfactant properties are not always predictable based on chemical structure, as will be further demonstrated below. For example, surfactant 9 and the comparative surfactant differ only in the number of methylene groups at R3, but they demonstrate different surfactant properties. Surprisingly, surfactant 9 exhibits superior activity, as further described below, while the comparative surfactant exhibits inferior surfactant properties.

[0269] The following non-limiting embodiments are given to demonstrate the different properties of different surfactants. In Table 1 below, the abbreviations of the surfactants are associated with their corresponding chemical structures.

[0279] Surfactants with antibacterial properties Cells are the basic units of all living organisms, and all have a group of organelles responsible for the ability of each cell to perform various kinds of functions and store genetic information about the growth and function of the organism. The outer boundary of the cell is called the cell membrane, and it functions as a barrier, controlling the transport of substances between the inside and outside of the cell. The cell membrane is destroyed by a process called lysis, which causes cell death, and this is the root cause of all antimicrobial processes. The use of surfactants with inherent biocidal activity in shampoos, conditioners, cleansers, and various other applications can be very important, especially in situations where the application cannot tolerate the use of chemical biocides.

[0280] Traditionally, cationic surfactants have been used as antimicrobial agents in industries such as the food industry and hospitals. Unlike conventional antimicrobial chemicals that rely on a "lock and key" mechanism, cationic surfactants are known to exert their antimicrobial activity by degrading bacterial membranes through electrostatic and hydrophobic interactions. (Zhou & Wang, Structure-activity relationship of cationic surfactants as antimicrobial agents., Current Opinion in Colloids & Interface Science, 45:28~43 (2020)). To function as an effective antimicrobial agent, surfactants must effectively kill bacteria or other undesirable pathogenic microorganisms without adversely affecting mammalian cells. Today, with increasing awareness of the potential cytotoxicity and environmental risks of certain chemicals, conventional quaternary ammonium surfactants are known to indiscriminately disrupt biological membranes regardless of cell type, and efforts are being made to develop surfactants that mitigate concerns about potential cytotoxicity arising from their lack of selectivity.

[0281] To evaluate the antimicrobial activity known as the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) test, the surfactants of this disclosure are shown in the standard protocol. The following table shows the MIC results for examples of the surfactants of this disclosure.

[0345] Example 19: Antimicrobial MIC Survey The antimicrobial properties of surfactants were tested using known methods and standard protocols, targeting various types of microorganisms. More specifically, a minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) test protocol using serial dilution was applied to obtain concentration-dependent microbial growth inhibition measurements against Gram-positive bacteria (e.g., the anaerobic Streptococcus mutans, and Staphylococcus aureus, which is normally aerobic but can also grow anaerobically) and Gram-negative bacteria (e.g., the anaerobic Escherichia coli, or the aerobic Psudomonas aeruginosa).

[0346] The bacteria were grown overnight in appropriate growth medium, tripty soy broth. Prior to testing, the concentration of the organisms to be tested was measured using a spectrophotometer capable of measuring optical density. These bacterial samples were then diluted to approximately 1E3–1E4 CFU / mL. Subsequently, 10 mL of the prepared bacterial culture was inoculated into the test wells of a 96-well plate, each containing appropriate growth medium (tripty soy agar). After inoculation with the bacterial culture, these wells were treated with serially diluted test samples and incubated for approximately 24±1 hours at a temperature of 37±1°C and a relative humidity of 90% or higher.

[0347] The surfactants to be tested were prepared in a dilution series. All dilutions were performed stepwise in 96-well microtiter plates using a multichannel pipette. The dilution series was pre-established by a range exploration test to determine the upper limit of high concentrations, and by a low-concentration dilution series to ensure that the test substance was effective without completely inhibiting bacterial growth.

[0348] Next, the approximate concentration of the test surfactant that inhibits bacterial growth was determined using an MIC (Micro-Intensity Monitor). In this antimicrobial testing protocol, a reference substance is typically used as a positive control. In this case, ADBAC, a quaternary amine with CAS number 139-08-2, was used as the appropriate test reference substance.

[0349] Test measurements were repeatedly performed in 96-well plates, and the measured MICs were reported as the integer mean. Repeated data were averaged by calculating the arithmetic mean of the selected measurements using the following formula: Arithmetic mean = Sum of values ​​in the set / Number of terms. Measurement variability was reported in the form of MIC+ / - based on the calculated mean.
