[0099] Example 1: Oil-in-water sunscreen emulsion The total amount of the first raw material composition and the second raw material composition was taken as 100 wt%, and the following components were used: butyl methoxydibenzoylmethane 2 wt%, ethylhexyl methoxycinnamate 4 wt%, titanium dioxide 6 wt%, alkyl benzoate mixture (manufactured by PATECH FINE CHEMICALS CO., LTD., Taiwan, model number: Paester TM The ingredients were mixed at 80°C to obtain a first raw material composition containing 5 wt% isononyl isononanoate, 5 wt% caprylic / capric triglyceride, 4.2 wt% polyglyceryl-10 laurate having an HLB value of 15.8, and 2.8 wt% polyglyceryl-2 triisostearate having an HLB value of 3.2.

[0100] The materials were mixed at 80°C to obtain a second raw material composition containing 62.2 wt% water, 3 wt% glycerol, 0.3 wt% xanthan gum, and 0.5 wt% preservative (manufactured by ACTIVON CO., LTD., USA, model number: Activonol-PAFC, ingredients: phenoxyethanol, ethylhexylglycerin, chlorphenesin).

[0101] The first raw material composition was then gradually added to the second raw material composition and mixed by stirring. After homogenization for 5 minutes using a homogenizer set at a rotation speed of 5000 rpm, the mixture was cooled to 40°C with gentle stirring to obtain an oil-in-water sunscreen emulsion.

[0102] Example 2 and Comparative Examples 1 to 4 As shown in Table 1, Example 2 and Comparative Examples 1 to 4 are the same as Example 1 except for the types and amounts of each component used.

[0103] Evaluation items Calculation of Hydrophilic Lipophilic Balance (HLB) Value: The HLB value of the polyglycerol ester emulsifier in the first reaction composition is calculated as follows: [amount of polyglycerol having a degree of polymerization of 4 to 20 used / (sum of amount of polyglycerol having a degree of polymerization of 4 to 20 used and amount of fatty acid used)]×20.

[0104] The calculation of the HLB value of the polyglycerol ester co-emulsifier in the second reaction composition is as follows: [the amount of glycerol or polyglycerol having a degree of polymerization of 2 to 10 used / (the sum of the amount of glycerol or polyglycerol having a degree of polymerization of 2 to 10 used and the amount of fatty acid used)]×20.

[0105] Emulsification analysis: The oil-in-water sunscreen emulsions of Examples 1 and 2 and the sunscreen emulsions of Comparative Examples 1 to 4 were visually observed for the presence or absence of separation into layers or uneven floating oil. "Good" indicates that there was no separation into layers or uneven floating oil, and that the emulsion was completely emulsified. "Poor" indicates that there was separation into layers or uneven floating oil, and that the emulsion was incomplete or non-emulsified.

[0106] Emulsion morphology analysis: The oil-in-water sunscreen emulsions of Examples 1 and 2 and the sunscreen emulsions of Comparative Examples 1 to 4 are dropped into water, and observed with the naked eye to see whether they are uniformly dispersed in the water.

[0107] Oil-in-water (O / W) emulsions disperse uniformly in water.

[0108] Water-in-oil (W / O) emulsions aggregate and do not disperse in water, but float on the water surface or sink to the bottom.

[0109] Measurement of sun protection factor (SPF) and water resistance retention (WRR, unit: %): 39 mg to 40 mg of each of the oil-in-water sunscreen emulsions of Examples 1 and 2 and the sunscreen liquids of Comparative Examples 1 to 4 were applied to six polymethylacrylate plates (polymethacrylates, manufactured by Schonberg, Germany), and each polymethylacrylate plate was coated with a layer of paint over a unit area (cm 2 A coating having 0.7 mg to 1.3 mg of sunscreen per coating layer was formed, thereby obtaining a number of samples.

[0110] Each sample was left to stand in a dark environment for 15 minutes, and then measured using an ultraviolet-visible spectrophotometer (Shimadzu Corporation, model number: UV-2600i) according to the international standard method for measuring the content of in vitro ultraviolet A radiation (UVA) photodamage protection sunscreen creams described in ISO (International Organization for Standardization) 24443 (2012) to obtain a first sun protection factor.

[0111] Then, each sample was immersed in 3 liters of water and stirred for 15 minutes using a stirrer set at a rotation speed of 5000 rpm. After that, each sample was taken out of the water and the remaining water in the sample was removed. Then, each sample was measured using the UV-Visible spectrophotometer to obtain a second sun protection factor.

[0112] Calculate the Water Resistance Retention Rate (WRR) using the following formula: WRR(%)=[(second sun protection factor - 1) / (first sun protection factor - 1)]×100%

[0113] [Table 1]

[0115] In addition, since the polyglycerol and fatty acid in the polyglycerol ester emulsifier and the polyglycerol ester coemulsifier are of natural origin, the emulsion composition of the present invention meets the demand of the natural cosmetics market and is advantageous for the sustainable development of the cosmetics market.

[0116] Therefore, the object of the present invention can be achieved reliably.
