Abstract
Description
[Technical Field]
[0001] This invention relates to zinc oxide coated powder, a method for producing zinc oxide coated powder, sebum-solidifying powder, and cosmetics. [Background technology]
[0002] Zinc oxide reacts with fatty acids (e.g., oleic acid) contained in sebum secreted on the skin's surface to produce metallic soaps (e.g., zinc oleate), which solidify the sebum, thus having a sebum-solidifying effect. For this reason, zinc oxide is used as an agent to prevent shine and makeup breakdown caused by sebum secretion. The sebum-solidifying effect of zinc oxide increases with smaller particle size and larger specific surface area of zinc oxide particles. However, when zinc oxide comes into direct contact with the skin in the form of small-diameter particles, it can worsen the feel of the product and cause a squeaky sensation.
[0003] Therefore, zinc oxide coated powders have been proposed, in which zinc oxide is coated onto a substrate (see, for example, Patent Document 1), and a plate-shaped iron oxide coated titanium mica with a smooth surface is used as the substrate. Furthermore, the applicant already manufactures and sells zinc oxide-coated talc powder, which is a layered powder of talc used as a substrate coated with zinc oxide (see, for example, Non-Patent Document 1).

[0005] [Non-Patent Document 1] Fuji Chemical Co., Ltd., Cosmetics & Raw Materials Search, [online], Searched June 24, 2025, Internet<URL:https: / / fuji-kasei-database.com / materials / 00173 / > [Overview of the project] [Problems that the invention aims to solve]
[0006] Incidentally, zinc oxide-coated powders incorporated into various cosmetics are desired to have a high sebum-solidifying effect under various usage conditions. However, the zinc oxide-coated powders described in the prior art above do not necessarily have the optimal substrate (carrier) selected according to the usage conditions, and the zinc oxide is not coated on the substrate in an optimal state. As a result, a high sebum-solidifying effect may not be obtained in situations where moisture from the air or sweat is present in high-temperature, high-humidity environments. Consequently, sebum that has not been sufficiently solidified becomes more fluid due to moisture from the air or sweat in high-temperature, high-humidity environments, leading to a problem where makeup easily breaks down.
[0007] This invention has been made in view of the above problems, and aims to provide a zinc oxide coated powder that can obtain a higher sebum solidification effect than conventional methods, a method for producing the same, and a sebum solidification powder and cosmetic. [Means for solving the problem]
[0008] To solve the aforementioned problems, the present inventors diligently investigated the mechanism by which zinc oxide exhibits its sebum solidification ability. As a result, they found that moisture can promote the solidification reaction between zinc oxide and fatty acids contained in sebum, and that zinc oxide-coated powder, obtained by coating porous spherical silica or fine particle silica aggregates with zinc oxide, provides a higher sebum solidification effect compared to conventional methods. Based on the above findings, the inventors further diligently conducted research and discovered that zinc oxide-coated powder, which is obtained by coating a carrier selected from porous spherical silica, fine particle silica aggregates, and a hygroscopic carrier that can effectively adsorb moisture from the air and moisture from sweat in high-temperature, high-humidity environments with zinc oxide in a manner that maximizes the sebum solidification effect, can promote the solidification reaction between zinc oxide and fatty acids contained in sebum by the moisture adsorbed by the carrier, and thus obtain a higher sebum solidification effect than conventional methods in the presence of moisture, leading to the present invention.

[Figure 2] Figure 2 shows the XRD spectrum of the zinc oxide coated powder in Test Example 1. [Figure 3] Figure 3 is a scanning electron microscope image of the zinc oxide coated powder in Test Example 3. [Figure 4] Figure 4 shows the XRD spectrum of the zinc oxide coated powder in Test Example 3. [Figure 5] Figure 5 shows the SEM-EDX measurement results of zinc oxide coated powder in Test Example 3. [Modes for carrying out the invention]
[0020] (Zinc oxide coated powder) In the first embodiment, the zinc oxide coated powder of the present invention is obtained by coating porous spherical silica with zinc oxide. In the second embodiment, it is obtained by coating fine silica aggregates with zinc oxide. In the third embodiment, it is obtained by coating a hygroscopic carrier with zinc oxide, and the moisture absorption rate HA of the zinc oxide coated powder, calculated from the following formula (1), is 1% by mass or more. The moisture absorption rate of zinc oxide coated powder is HA = [(BA) / A] × 100...(1) However, in formula (1), A is the mass of the zinc oxide coated powder after drying at 105°C for 3 hours, and B is the mass of the dried zinc oxide coated powder after being left for 24 hours in a constant temperature and humidity chamber set to a temperature of 30°C and a relative humidity of 75%.
[0021] In the present invention, the zinc oxide coated powder has a moisture absorption rate HA of 1% by mass or more, preferably 1.5% by mass or more, more preferably 3% by mass or more, and particularly preferably 5% by mass or more, as determined from the above formula (1). There is no particular upper limit to the moisture absorption rate HA of the zinc oxide coated powder, and it can be appropriately selected depending on the purpose. If the moisture absorption rate HA of the zinc oxide coated powder is less than 1% by mass, the amount of moisture adsorbed onto the zinc oxide coated powder is insufficient. This prevents the solidification reaction between zinc oxide and fatty acids contained in sebum from being promoted, and may result in a lower sebum solidification effect compared to conventional methods.
[0022] <Zinc Oxide> The zinc oxide is coated on the surface of one of the following carriers: porous spherical silica, fine particle silica aggregates, or a hygroscopic carrier. It is sufficient for the zinc oxide to coat at least a portion of the carrier surface, but the entire carrier surface may also be coated with zinc oxide. Zinc oxide may be bonded to the support surface by any chemical bond, such as hydrogen bonds, van der Waals bonds, or metallic bonds, or it may be held by any interaction, such as adhesion, cohesiveness, or adsorption. The shape of the zinc oxide on the carrier surface is not particularly limited and can be appropriately selected depending on the purpose. Examples include spherical, ellipsoidal, flattened, plate-like, rod-like, needle-like, irregularly shaped, or a mixture thereof.
[0023] The amount of zinc oxide coating on the hygroscopic carrier is preferably 5% to 50% by mass, more preferably 10% to 40% by mass, and even more preferably 10% to 30% by mass. If the amount of zinc oxide coating is less than 5% by mass, the excellent sebum-solidifying effect due to the zinc oxide coating may not be obtained, and if it exceeds 50% by mass, uncoated free zinc oxide may be present, which may result in a poor texture. The amount of zinc oxide coating is expressed as mass percentage when the total amount of zinc oxide-coated powder is considered to be 100% by mass.
[0024] <Moisture-absorbing carrier> A hygroscopic carrier is a carrier whose moisture absorption rate HB, represented by the following formula (1'), is 1% by mass or more. The moisture absorption rate of a hygroscopic carrier HB = [(B'-A') / A'] × 100···(1') However, in equation (1), A' is the mass of the hygroscopic carrier after drying at 105°C for 3 hours, and B' is the mass of the dried hygroscopic carrier after being left for 24 hours in a constant temperature and humidity chamber set to a temperature of 30°C and a relative humidity of 75%.
[0025] The moisture absorption rate HB of the hygroscopic carrier is preferably 1% by mass or more, more preferably 2% by mass or more, even more preferably 5% by mass or more, and particularly preferably 10% by mass or more. There is no particular upper limit to the moisture absorption rate HB of the hygroscopic carrier, and it can be appropriately selected depending on the purpose. If the moisture absorption rate HB is less than 1% by mass, the hygroscopic carrier may not be able to adsorb enough moisture, and therefore, a good sebum solidification effect may not be obtained in the presence of moisture.
[0026] The shape of the hygroscopic carrier is not particularly limited and can be appropriately selected depending on the purpose. Examples include spherical, ellipsoidal, flattened, plate-shaped, rod-shaped, needle-shaped, irregularly shaped, or a mixture thereof.
[0027] The hygroscopic carrier is not particularly limited as long as the moisture absorption rate HB of the hygroscopic carrier represented by the above formula (1') is 1% by mass or more. Examples include silicon dioxide (silica), mesoporous silica, aluminum oxide (alumina), calcium carbonate, zeolite, calcium hydrogen phosphate, and hydroxyapatite. These may be used individually or in combination of two or more. Among these, silicon dioxide (silica) and hydroxyapatite are preferred.
[0028] In the present invention, porous spherical silica or fine particle silica aggregates are preferably used as hygroscopic carriers because they have a high moisture absorption rate HB represented by the above formula (1').
[0029] - Porous spherical silica Porous spherical silica is a porous silica structure that is hydrophilic and has minute pores inside. Even the minute pores inside that open to the surface are included in the surface of the porous silica. Porous spherical silica preferably has a spherical shape. Here, the spherical shape means that the average circularity determined by an image analysis method using a scanning electron microscope (SEM) is 0.8 or more.
[0030] The BET specific surface area of porous spherical silica is preferably 30 m 2 / g or more, more preferably 50 m 2 / g or more, still more preferably 100 m 2 / g or more, particularly preferably 150 m 2 / g or more. The upper limit value of the BET specific surface area of porous spherical silica is not particularly limited and can be appropriately selected according to the purpose, but it is preferably 1000 m 2 / g or less. The BET specific surface area of porous spherical silica can be measured, for example, by a gas adsorption method using nitrogen gas. The detailed measurement method of the BET specific surface area is as described in the examples below.
[0031] The average particle diameter of porous spherical silica is preferably 0.1 μm to 10 μm, more preferably 1 μm to 10 μm. The average particle diameter can be measured, for example, by a laser diffraction / scattering method.
[0032] As the porous spherical silica, those synthesized as appropriate may be used, or commercially available products may be used.

[0033] -Microparticle silica aggregate- Fine silica aggregates are hydrophilic and consist of minute primary silica particles that aggregate to form secondary particles (aggregates). The voids between the silica particles that make up the fine silica aggregate are also included on the surface of the fine silica aggregate.
[0034] The BET specific surface area of the silica particle aggregate is 30 m². 2 It is preferable that it be 50m or more / g 2 It is more preferable that it be 100m or more per gram. 2 It is even more preferable that the amount is 300 m² or more. There is no particular limit to the upper limit of the BET specific surface area of the fine silica aggregates, and it can be appropriately selected depending on the purpose, but 300 m² is preferable. 2 It is preferable that the value be less than or equal to / g. The BET specific surface area of a silica aggregate of fine particles can be measured, for example, by a gas adsorption method using nitrogen gas. A detailed method for measuring the BET specific surface area is described in the examples below.
[0035] The average particle size of the fine silica aggregate is preferably 0.1 μm to 10 μm, and more preferably 1 μm to 10 μm. The average particle size can be measured, for example, by laser diffraction / scattering.
[0036] As the fine silica aggregates, you may use ones that have been synthesized as appropriate, or you may use commercially available products. Examples of commercially available products include the Nipsil series from Tosoh Silica Co., Ltd. (E-150J, E-200, E-220A, K-500, etc.).
[0037] (Method for producing zinc oxide coated powder) The method for producing zinc oxide coated powder according to the present invention is a method for producing zinc oxide coated powder according to the present invention, A zinc compound is added to an aqueous dispersion of a carrier selected from porous spherical silica, fine particle silica aggregates, and a hygroscopic carrier, and mixed.

[0040] The present invention provides a method for producing zinc oxide coated powder, in which an alkaline aqueous solution is dropped to induce a neutralization reaction, and zinc oxide is precipitated on a carrier selected from porous spherical silica, fine particle silica aggregates, and a hygroscopic carrier. After that, if necessary, the solid content obtained by solid-liquid separation by a conventional method is washed with water, dried, and calcined to obtain zinc oxide coated powder. The firing temperature is preferably 150°C or higher, and more preferably between 150°C and 700°C. The firing time is usually 30 minutes to 5 hours.

The sebum-solidifying powder of the present invention is made by coating a hygroscopic carrier, which can adsorb moisture from the air and moisture from sweat in high-temperature, high-humidity environments, with zinc oxide in a manner that maximizes the sebum-solidifying effect. Compared to conventional zinc oxide-coated powders, which are made by coating a non-hygroscopic carrier that does not adsorb moisture with zinc oxide, the present invention can achieve a superior sebum-solidifying effect even in the presence of moisture.
