Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a pet cleaning composition that is mild to the skin, has little effect on the body when orally ingested, and is excellent in preventing a decrease in skin barrier function during cleaning and improving the condition and luster of the fur after drying. [Background technology]

[0002] In recent years, with the trend toward nuclear families and smaller families, the number of people keeping pets such as dogs and cats has increased. In particular, many pets are kept indoors, resulting in increased contact with pets during daily life. Therefore, maintaining cleanliness by using pet cleansers is important for preventing illness and leading a comfortable life. However, pets have delicate skin and are prone to skin diseases, so repeated washing can lead to dry skin. Furthermore, due to grooming habits, pets have sometimes accidentally licked cleanser ingredients from their fur or skin. In addition, with an increasing number of pet owners seeking to maintain a beautiful appearance, the goal of washing has become not only to maintain cleanliness but also to ensure a clean, dry finish. However, some pets dislike getting wet and become restless during washing. In response to pet owners' desire to shorten washing times, rinse-in cleansers that simultaneously cleanse and provide a treatment have become mainstream. Therefore, there is a need for safe additives that can provide a rinsing effect in all use scenarios, from washing to drying.

[0003] Numerous proposals have been made to solve these problems, and Patent Document 1 reports that the incorporation of ceramide improves the skin's barrier function after washing. However, sufficient effects may not be obtained in terms of coat texture and shine, leaving room for improvement. Patent Document 2 reports that a coat treatment composition containing a quaternary ammonium salt improves the finish, but does not report on skin irritation or effects on the body when orally ingested. Furthermore, the formulation is one in which the cleanser is applied, leaving room for improvement in reducing the burden on the owner who washes the pet. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0004] [Patent Document 1] Patent 4691001 [Patent Document 2] Patent 2541299 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0005] To provide a pet washing composition which is mild to the skin, has little effect on the body when orally ingested, prevents a decrease in the skin barrier function during washing, and has excellent effects of improving the condition and luster of the fur after drying. [Means for solving the problem]

[0006] The present inventors conducted extensive research to solve the above problems and discovered that the use of succinylarginine or a salt thereof prevents the deterioration of skin barrier function that occurs when washing pets, has an unprecedented effect of improving the coat condition and luster after drying, is mild to the skin, and has little effect on the body when orally ingested, and has thus completed the present invention.

[0007] That is, the present invention is (1) A pet cleaning composition containing succinylarginine represented by general formula (a) or a salt thereof as component (A). [ka]

[0008] (2) A pet cleaning composition according to (1), which further comprises 1.0 to 15.0% by weight of an N-acylamino acid as component (B).

[0009] (3) A pet cleaning composition comprising the pet cleaning composition according to (1) and (2) above, and containing, as component (C), 1.0 to 10.0% by weight of an amphoteric surfactant.

[0010] (4) A pet cleaning composition according to any one of (1) to (3) above, which further comprises, as component (D), 0.5 to 10.0% by weight of a polyol having 1 to 15 carbon atoms and 2 to 11 oxygen atoms. [Effects of the Invention]

[0011] The present invention uses succinylarginine or a salt thereof to provide a novel pet cleaning composition that is mild to the skin, has little effect on the body when orally ingested, prevents a decrease in skin barrier function during cleaning, and is excellent in improving the condition and luster of the fur after drying. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0012] The present invention will be explained in more detail below with reference to specific examples, but the present invention is not limited to these examples in any way.

[0013] The pet washing composition of the present invention is a composition containing succinylarginine represented by general formula (a) or a salt thereof as component (A). [ka]

[0014] Succinylarginine or its salts, which are represented by general formula (a) and are component (A), are mild to the skin, and even if accidentally ingested orally, they are hydrolyzed in the stomach into arginine and succinic acid, which are used as food additives in supplements and seasonings, and are therefore unlikely to have any adverse effects on the body.

[0015] Succinylarginine or a salt thereof can be produced by known methods (e.g., JP 2016-064994 A). As the salt, a metal salt such as potassium, calcium, sodium, magnesium, or lithium can be used, and sodium, potassium, and magnesium, which are generally readily available, can be used.

[0016] By incorporating succinylarginine or a salt thereof represented by general formula (a), component (A), into a cleaning composition, the effects of preventing a decline in skin barrier function after cleaning and improving the coat condition and luster after drying are exhibited. While there are no particular limitations on the amount incorporated, when used as a pet cleaning composition, incorporating 0.1 to 5.0% by weight can simultaneously prevent a decline in skin barrier function and improve the coat condition and luster after drying. At concentrations below 0.1% by weight, the effects of the present invention may not be realized, while at concentrations exceeding 5.0% by weight, stiffness may occur after drying.

[0017] The surfactant used in the pet cleaning composition of the present invention is not particularly limited, but a surfactant that is mild to the skin and has little effect on the body when orally ingested is preferred. For example, N-acyl amino acids can be used as component (B) and amphoteric surfactants can be used as component (C), and these can be used alone or in combination.

[0018] The N-acyl amino acids of component (B) include N-lauroyl-β-alanine, N-lauroyl-N-methyl-β-alanine, N-lauroylsarcosine, N-lauroylglycine, N-lauroylglutamic acid, N-lauroylaspartic acid, N-myristoyl-β-alanine, N-myristoyl-N-methyl-β-alanine, N-myristoylsarcosine, N-myristoylglycine, N-myristoylglutamic acid, N-myristoylaspartic acid, N-coconut fatty acid-β-alanine, and N-coconut fatty acid-N-methyl-β-alanine. Examples include various acids such as N-coconut fatty acid sarcosine, N-coconut fatty acid glycine, N-coconut fatty acid glutamic acid, and N-coconut fatty acid aspartic acid, and salts thereof, with N-lauroyl-N-methyl-β-alanine sodium, N-coconut fatty acid-N-methyl-β-alanine sodium, N-lauroyl sarcosine sodium, N-coconut fatty acid sarcosine sodium, N-coconut fatty acid glutamic acid, and N-coconut fatty acid potassium glutamate being particularly preferred due to their foaming power, low skin irritation, and reportedly low risk when orally ingested. These N-acyl amino acids may be used alone or in combination of two or more.

[0019] The content of N-acylamino acid (component (B)) in the pet cleaning composition of the present invention is preferably 1.0 to 15.0 wt%. If it is less than 1.0 wt%, the proportion in the composition will be low, which may cause significant skin irritation from other active agents. If it is incorporated in an amount exceeding 15.0 wt%, moisture evaporation from the skin may occur more easily, which may reduce the barrier function. From the viewpoint of ease of handling when used in a pet cleaning composition, a more preferred content is 3.0 to 13.0 wt%.

[0020] Examples of amphoteric surfactants that are component (C) include amphoteric surfactants of the amine oxide type, such as the amidoamine oxide type, amidopropyl betaine type, sulfobetaine type, imidazoline type, and alkyl betaine type, and imidazoline type is particularly preferred because it is said to be less irritating to the skin and less dangerous when ingested orally.

[0021] Specific examples of imidazoline-type amphoteric surfactants include sodium cocoamphoacetate (commercially available products include Softazoline (registered trademark) CH, CH-R, CL, and CL-R manufactured by Kawaken Fine Chemicals Co., Ltd.), sodium argan amphoacetate, sodium isostearoamphoacetate, sodium olive amphoacetate, sodium cacao butter amphoacetate, sodium caproamphoacetate, sodium sesame amphoacetate, sodium rice bran amphoacetate, sodium shea butter amphoacetate, sodium sweet almond amphoacetate, sodium palm amphoacetate, sodium babassu amphoacetate, and sodium peanut amphoacetate. Examples of the imidazoline-type amphoteric surfactant include sodium acetate, sunflower seed sodium amphoacetate, grape seed sodium amphoacetate, mango sodium amphoacetate, cottonseed sodium amphoacetate, sodium lauroamphoacetate (commercially available products include Softazoline LHL and LHL-SF manufactured by Kawaken Fine Chemicals Co., Ltd.), disodium cocoamphodiacetate, disodium soybean oil fatty acid amphodiacetate, disodium lauroamphodiacetate, sodium cocoamphopropionate (commercially available products include Softazoline NS, SF, and SFD manufactured by Kawaken Fine Chemicals Co., Ltd.), and disodium cocoamphodipropionate. Because of their ease of availability and excellent foaming power, preferred imidazoline-type amphoteric surfactants include sodium cocoamphoacetate and sodium lauroamphoacetate.

[0022] Specific examples of amidoamine oxide type amphoteric surfactants include lauramidopropylamine oxide (a commercially available product is Softazoline LAO-C manufactured by Kawaken Fine Chemicals Co., Ltd.), cocamidopropylamine oxide, wheat germ oil fatty acid amidopropylamine oxide, soyamidopropylamine oxide, myristamidopropylamine oxide, milk fat fatty acid amidopropylamine oxide, etc. Specific examples of amine oxide type amphoteric surfactants include oleamine oxide, cocoamine oxide, dihydroxyethyl cocamine oxide, dihydroxyethyl lauramine oxide, stearamine oxide, decylamine oxide, decyltetradecylamine oxide, behenamine oxide, myristamine oxide, lauramine oxide, etc.

[0023] Specific examples of amidopropyl betaine-type amphoteric surfactants include cocamidopropyl betaine (commercially available products include Softazoline CPB and CPB-R manufactured by Kawaken Fine Chemicals Co., Ltd.), (capryl / capramido)propyl betaine, isostearamidopropyl betaine, undecylenamidopropyl betaine, oliamidopropyl betaine, oleamidopropyl betaine, shea butter amidopropyl betaine, soyamidopropyl betaine, palm kernel fatty acid amidopropyl betaine (commercially available product includes Softazoline PKPB manufactured by Kawaken Fine Chemicals Co., Ltd.), babassuamidopropyl betaine, myristamidopropyl betaine, meadowfoam amidopropyl betaine, lauramidopropyl betaine (commercially available products include Softazoline LPB and LPB-R manufactured by Kawaken Fine Chemicals Co., Ltd.), ricinoleic acid amidopropyl betaine, milk fat fatty acid amidopropyl betaine, and horse oil fatty acid amidopropyl betaine. Preferred amidopropyl betaine type amphoteric surfactants include cocamidopropyl betaine and lauramidopropyl betaine because they are easily available and have excellent foaming power.

[0024] Specific examples of sulfobetaine-type amphoteric surfactants include lauryl hydroxysulfobetaine (lauryl hydroxysultaine), lauramidopropyl hydroxysultaine, cocamidopropyl hydroxysultaine, erucamidopropyl hydroxysultaine, methoxycinnamidopropyl hydroxysultaine, etc. Preferred sulfobetaine-type amphoteric surfactants are lauryl hydroxysulfobetaine (lauryl hydroxysultaine) and lauramidopropyl hydroxysultaine, because they are easily available and have excellent foaming power.

[0025] These amphoteric surfactants as component (C) may be used alone or in combination of two or more. Furthermore, when improving the stability over time and the transparency of the appearance of the pet cleaning composition, it is preferable to use a desalted purified product as the amphoteric surfactant as component (C).

[0026] The content of the amphoteric surfactant (component (C)) in the pet cleaning composition of the present invention is preferably 1.0 to 10.0% by weight. If it is less than 1.0% by weight, the proportion in the composition will be reduced, which may cause significant skin irritation from other active agents. If it is incorporated in an amount exceeding 10.0% by weight, the problem of reduced foaming may occur. From the viewpoint of ease of handling when used as a pet cleaning composition, a more preferred content is 2.0 to 8.0% by weight.

[0027] Although the N-acyl amino acid (component (B)) and the amphoteric surfactant (component (C)) are sufficiently low in irritation to the skin when used alone and have satisfactory surfactant performance, their combined use further reduces skin irritation and improves ease of handling when used as a pet cleaning composition. For this reason, the pet cleaning composition of the present invention more preferably uses the N-acyl amino acid (component (B)) and the amphoteric surfactant (component (C)) in combination.

[0028] The polyol that is component (D) is at least one selected from polyols having 1 to 15 carbon atoms and 2 to 11 oxygen atoms. Specific examples include glycerin derivatives such as glycerin and diglycerin, glycols such as 1,3-butylene glycol, methylene glycol, glycol, diethylene glycol, triethylene glycol, propylene glycol, dipropylene glycol, tripropylene glycol, pentylene glycol, neopentyl glycol, hexylene glycol, caprylyl glycol, decylene glycol, lauryl glycol, and lauryl glycol hydroxypropyl ether, diols such as propanediol, 1,2-butanediol, 1,4-butanediol, 2,3-butanediol, 1,5-pentanediol, isopentyldiol, hexanediol, 1,2-hexanediol, 1,10-decanediol, ethylhexanediol, octanediol, butylethylpropanediol, and methylpropanediol, sugars such as pentaerythritol, fructose, sorbitol, mannitol, inositol, glucose, lactose, maltitol, and sucrose, and sugar alcohols. In view of their availability and ease of handling, preferred are glycerin, 1,3-butylene glycol, and dipropylene glycol. These components may be used alone or in combination of two or more. Component (D) is preferably blended in the pet cleansing composition at 0.5 to 10.0 wt %, more preferably 2.0 to 8.0 wt %. If it is blended at 0.5 wt % or less, moisture evaporation from the skin may occur more easily, which may reduce the barrier function. If it is blended at more than 10.0 wt %, the problem of reduced foaming may occur.

[0029] Water is an optional component that can be added to the pet cleaning compositions of the present invention, and may be incorporated by adding water-soluble ingredients.

[0030] In addition, other components than those described above can be added to the pet cleaning composition of the present invention as needed, within qualitative and quantitative ranges that do not substantially impair the effects of the present invention. However, it may be necessary to control the amount of components that may adsorb to the surface of hair and inhibit the effects of succinylarginine or its salt (A), which is component (A). Furthermore, depending on the type of pet to which the detergent of the present invention is to be used, it is not preferable to add components or amounts that may have adverse effects on the pet when they adhere to the pet's hair or skin or when they are ingested orally.

[0031] Other surfactant components that can be blended are not particularly limited, and examples of anionic surfactants include laurate, myristate, palmitate, stearate, oleate, coconut oil fatty acid salts, palm kernel oil fatty acid salts, palm oil fatty acid salts, N-lauroyl-N-methyl taurate, N-coconut oil fatty acid-N-methyl taurate, poly(1-10)oxyethylene lauryl ether acetate, poly(1-10)oxyethylene coconut oil alkyl ether acetate, poly(1-10)oxyethylene tridecyl ether acetate, poly(1-10)oxyethylene lauroylethanolamide ether acetate, poly(1-10)oxyethylene coconut oil fatty acid ethanolamide ether acetate, poly(1-10)N-methyl-lauroylethanolamide ether acetate, poly(1-10)N-ethyl-lauroylethanolamide ether acetate, poly(1-10)oxyethylene N-methyl-coconut oil fatty acid ethanolamide Poly(1-10)oxyethylene N-ethyl-coconut oil fatty acid ethanolamide ether acetate, poly(0-10)oxyethylene lauryl sulfosuccinate, poly(0-10)oxyethylene coconut oil fatty acid sulfosuccinate, poly(0-10)oxyethylene lauroylethanolamide sulfosuccinate, poly(0-10)oxyethylene coconut oil fatty acid ethanolamide sulfosuccinate, poly(0-10)oxyethylene N-methyl-lauroylethanolamide sulfosuccinate, poly(0-10)oxyethylene N-methyl-coconut oil fatty acid ethanolamide sulfosuccinate, poly(0-10)oxyethylene N-ethyl-lauroylethanolamide sulfosuccinate, poly(0-10)oxyethylene N-ethyl-coconut oil fatty acid ethanolamide sulfosuccinate, and mixtures thereof may also be used, and examples of the salts thereof include sodium salts, potassium salts, and triethanolamine salts.

[0034] It is generally known that there is a correlation between pH and viscosity for some cleaning compositions. The pet cleaning composition of the present invention can also be adjusted to a desired viscosity by adjusting the pH using a pH adjuster using known techniques, and can be adjusted to a desired viscosity, from a low-viscosity solution to a high-viscosity gel. Examples of pH adjusters that can be used include citric acid, succinic acid, malic acid, lactic acid, tartaric acid, glycolic acid, glucuronic acid, and sodium hydroxide. While there are no particular limitations on the pH of the pet cleaning composition of the present invention, a pH of 5.0 to 8.0 at 25°C is desirable for the undiluted solution from the viewpoints of foaming during cleaning, low-temperature stability, and skin irritation. At a pH below 5.0, the anionic surfactant falls below the pKa, reducing surface activity and resulting in reduced foaming and poor low-temperature stability. At a pH above 8.0, alkali-induced skin damage may occur. [Example]

[0035] The effects of the present invention will be explained in more detail with reference to the following examples, but the present invention is not limited to these examples.

[0036] Test Method Cleaning compositions having the compositions shown in Tables 1 and 2 were prepared according to known methods to obtain cleaning compositions of Examples 1 to 13 and Comparative Examples 1 and 2. The resulting cleaning compositions were evaluated as follows, and the results are shown in Tables 1 and 2.

[0037] Evaluation method Five healthy, long-haired dogs (Maltese) and five long-haired cats (Persian) with no skin abnormalities were washed twice a week for four weeks using 30 to 50 g of the pet cleaning composition (Products 1 to 13 of the present invention, and Comparative Products 1 and 2). The results were then evaluated according to the following criteria. The average score for the 10 dogs was calculated, and the average score was evaluated as follows: 5 to 4.6 = ★, less than 4.6 to 4.1 = ☆, less than 4.1 to 3.6 = ◎, less than 3.6 to 3.1 = ○, less than 3.1 to 2.5 = △, and less than 2.5 to 1 = ×.

[0038] <Method for assessing the effectiveness of preventing the decline of skin barrier function> The skin condition of the long-haired dogs and cats that were the subjects of this evaluation after hair removal was visually observed once a day during the evaluation period by five expert panelists and evaluated based on the following evaluation criteria. The lowest score during the evaluation period was recorded as the score for that subject. 5: No erythema or dryness observed 4: Almost no erythema or dryness is observed 3: Neither 2: Slight erythema and dryness are observed 1: Erythema and dryness are observed

[0039] <How to judge coat condition> Immediately after 4 weeks of repeated use, the coat was towel-dried and then dried with a hairdryer, and the coat was visually inspected by five expert panelists and rated according to the following evaluation criteria. 5: Excellent coat quality 4: Fairly good coat 3: Neither 2: Slightly inferior fur 1: Poor coat quality

[0040] <How to judge coat gloss> Immediately after 4 weeks of repeated use, the coat gloss after towel drying and drying with a hairdryer was visually observed by five expert panelists and evaluated according to the following evaluation criteria. 5: Excellent coat gloss 4: Slightly glossy coat 3: Neither 2: Slightly less shiny coat 1: Poor coat luster

[0042] Pet Cleaning Composition Examples and Comparative Examples [Table 2]

[0043] Evaluation results Examples 1 to 13, which were prepared within the scope of the pet cleaning composition of the present invention, were all rated as good or better, confirming that they were mild to the skin, prevented a decline in skin barrier function due to cleaning, and at the same time improved the coat's texture and luster after drying. On the other hand, in Comparative Examples 1 and 2, which did not contain component (A), the effects of preventing a decrease in skin barrier function, and the evaluations of coat condition and coat gloss were rated as fair or below, and the characteristic effects of the present invention were not fully achieved. [Industrial Applicability]

[0044] The pet cleaning composition of the present invention is mild to the skin, has little effect on the body when orally ingested, prevents a decrease in skin barrier function due to cleansing, and improves the coat condition and luster of the coat simply by cleansing, thereby increasing the commercial value of pet care products such as pet cleansers.
