Abstract
Description
Solid particles containing liquid components, clusters containing the same, and solid cosmetics and methods for producing the same
[0001] The present invention relates to solid cosmetics, and more particularly, to solid particles containing liquid ingredients, clusters containing the same, solid cosmetics, and a method for producing the same.
[0002] Hair care products like shampoo and conditioner, skin care products like toners, whitening creams, and anti-wrinkle products, color cosmetics like lipsticks and BB creams, and cosmetics like sunscreens are supplied to consumers in liquid form, packaged in plastic containers. This is because the main ingredient in these products is purified water, and the liquid form of their active ingredients provides superior efficacy and user satisfaction, with higher skin absorption rates and unchanged composition compared to solid raw ingredients.
[0003] However, plastic pollution has recently emerged as a major environmental issue, and efforts are underway to ensure the sustainability of everyday products, including the development of recyclable and degradable plastic materials. However, these efforts have so far had minimal impact. In particular, plastic recycling accounts for less than 20% of total plastic production, and high recycling costs limit its effectiveness. Furthermore, degradable plastics are still in the development stage.
[0004] In contrast, solid cosmetics basically do not require plastic containers and can also greatly limit the use of water within the product, which has the great advantage of allowing them to more actively respond to sustainability for protecting the global environment.
[0005] However, solid cosmetics currently in use struggle to replace liquid products due to their low efficacy and user satisfaction. This is primarily due to the extremely limited availability of liquid raw ingredients, which offer diverse benefits and high absorption rates, and the fact that most products use solid raw ingredients with low efficacy.
[0006] For example, the most popular shampoo bars (solid shampoos) that ensure sustainability use solid powdered ingredients, making them unable to guarantee the efficacy of liquid shampoos. Furthermore, optimal formulations for each ingredient are extremely limited. Furthermore, shampoo bars face numerous limitations, including the risk of cracking and softening with use, as well as hygiene concerns.
[0007] Therefore, in order to manufacture cosmetics that can provide excellent efficacy, user satisfaction, and convenience of use while ensuring sustainability, it is urgently necessary to use liquid raw materials without modification, and to produce products in solid form that are easily soluble and do not require plastic containers.
[0008] The technical problem to be achieved by the present invention is to provide a solid cosmetic product that provides high efficacy and excellent satisfaction in terms of product by including a liquid ingredient with excellent efficacy while maintaining a high solid form without deformation.
[0009] In addition, another technical problem to be achieved by the present invention is to provide a solid cosmetic comprising solid particles and clusters that provide improved solubility in water, aqueous solutions or hydrophilic solutions and thus provide instant convenience of use, and the solid cosmetic provides particles comprising solid and liquid active ingredients and clusters and pore structures comprising the same.
[0010] According to an embodiment of the present invention, solid particles may be provided, which include a hydrophilic solid active ingredient; a hydrophilic liquid active ingredient; a lipophilic liquid active substance and a hydrophilic binder, and a liquid component having a maximum particle size (d100) of 850 μm or less.

The pores may be partially or completely filled with a lipophilic liquid active ingredient or a mixture of a lipophilic liquid active ingredient and a lipophilic solid active ingredient.

[0025] Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the attached drawings.
[0026] The sizes and thicknesses of areas or parts depicted in the attached drawings may be exaggerated for clarity and convenience of explanation. Throughout this detailed description, the same reference numbers designate the same components. In the following description, the term "active ingredient" may be interpreted as active ingredient, effective ingredient, or main ingredient.
[0027] FIG. 1 is a drawing for explaining solid particles including a liquid component according to one embodiment of the present invention.
[0028] Referring to FIG. 1, the solid particles (10) may include a hydrophilic solid active ingredient (1), a hydrophilic binder (2), a hydrophilic liquid active ingredient (3), and a lipophilic active ingredient (4). The lipophilic active ingredient (4) may be selectively included in the solid particles (10) depending on the efficacy and use. Preferably, the hydrophilic liquid active ingredient (3) may be uniformly distributed within a solid matrix including the hydrophilic solid active ingredient. The hydrophilic binder (2) acts as an adhesive to allow the hydrophilic liquid active ingredient (3) to adhere well within the solid matrix while allowing more hydrophilic liquid active ingredient (3) to be accommodated.
[0029] The hydrophilic solid active ingredient (1) may be a solid cosmetic raw material that is soluble in water at room temperature. For example, it may be one of solid surfactants such as sodium lauryl sulfate, sodium laureth sulfate, sodium cocoyl isethionate, disodium lyreth sulfosuccinate, cetearyl olivate, sorbitan olivate, glyceryl stearate, glyceryl oleate, etc., or a solid cosmetic raw material such as trehalose, betaine, niacinamide, allantoin, sorbitol, adenosine, or a combination thereof, but is not limited thereto.
[0030] The hydrophilic binder (2) may be a cosmetic polymer raw material that dissolves or swells in water at room temperature. For example, it may be a material composed of a basic repeating unit of a combination of glucose or glucose derivatives, such as sodium hyaluronate, cellulose, methylcellulose, carboxymethylcellulose, ethylcellulose, and carboxyethylcellulose; a material composed of a basic repeating unit of a combination of amino acids or amino acid derivatives, such as hydrolyzed collagen, hydrolyzed keratin, and hydrolyzed wheat protein; a natural gum (g㎛) such as xanthan gum; a solid cosmetic raw material such as carbomer; or a raw material of a combination thereof, but is not limited thereto.
[0031] The hydrophilic liquid active ingredient (3) may be a cosmetic liquid raw material that is soluble in water at room temperature. For example, it may be a liquid raw material that volatilizes at a boiling point of 100°C or higher, such as lauryl glucoside, cocamidopropyl betaine, lauramidopropyl betaine, dexpanthenol, butylene glycol, 1,2-hexanediol, glycerol, and glycol. However, the present invention is not limited thereto.
[0032] The lipophilic active ingredient (4) may be a lipophilic liquid active ingredient, a lipophilic solid active ingredient, or a mixture thereof. The lipophilic liquid active ingredient may be a cosmetic liquid raw material of oil type, and may be a liquid raw material having a boiling point of 100°C or higher, such as isopropyl myristate, caprylic / capric triglyceride, natural oils (olive oil, jojoba oil, broccoli seed oil, etc.). The lipophilic solid active ingredient may be a cosmetic raw material, such as polyethylene, polypropylene, dextrin palmitate / ethylhexanoate, microcrystalline wax, butter (shea butter, etc.), natural waxes (candella, soy, palm, beeswax), phytosphingosine, ceramide, etc., but is not limited thereto.
[0033] The maximum particle size (d100) of the solid particles (10) may be 850 μm or less. If the size of the solid particles (10) exceeds 850 μm, water may not penetrate to the center of the solid particles (10) or may take too long to penetrate, so that even though the solid cosmetic is completely hydrated, it takes more time in the process of dissolving in water. Preferably, the maximum particle size (d100) of the solid particles (10) is 50 μm to 850 μm.
[0034] FIG. 2 is a drawing for explaining a cluster (100) including a liquid component according to one embodiment of the present invention.
[0035] Referring to FIG. 2, a cluster (100) may include at least two solid particles (10), an adhesive active ingredient (20) that enables the solid particles (10) to adhere, and pores (30) formed due to the adhesion of the solid particles (10).
[0036] The cluster (100) according to an embodiment of the present invention has an average diameter of 150 to 3000 μm. If the maximum particle size (d100) of the cluster (100) is less than 150 μm, the pores between the clusters (100) through which air escapes during the process of water being hydrated are easily blocked, and as a result, the water does not completely hydrate the solid cosmetic (1000) or it takes more time to hydrate. If the maximum particle size (d100) of the cluster (100) exceeds 3000 μm, the fluidity of the cluster (100) is very poor during the process of making the solid cosmetic (1000) described later, and as a result, it is difficult to have a uniform solid particle (10) and cluster (100) density when manufacturing the solid cosmetic (1000).
[0037] In addition, if the density of solid particles (10) and clusters (100) is not uniform, different physical properties are partially exhibited within the solid cosmetic (1000). In areas where the density of solid particles and clusters is high, a phenomenon of slow function occurs, and in areas where the density is low, it is difficult to maintain the shape of the solid cosmetic (1000) due to a lack of adhesive or bonding points.
[0038] A cluster (100) can form a complex (agglomeration) by at least two or more solid particles (10) being adhered or bonded.
[0039] The adhesive active ingredient (20) is an active ingredient that enables at least two or more solid particles (10) to adhere or bond, and may be formed of a volatile hydrophilic liquid such as water or alcohol, a combination of a volatile hydrophilic liquid and a hydrophilic liquid active ingredient, a combination of an active ingredient in which a volatile hydrophilic liquid and a hydrophilic solid active ingredient are mixed, or a combination of an active ingredient in which a volatile hydrophilic liquid and a hydrophilic liquid active ingredient and a hydrophilic solid active ingredient are mixed, but is not limited thereto.
[0040] The pore (30) may be formed by at least two or more adhered solid particles (10). The pore (30) may have a specific surface area of 50 ㎠ / g or less in the cluster (100), and if the specific surface area exceeds 50 ㎠ / g, the stability of the cluster (100) may deteriorate. In addition, the pore (30) may optionally include a lipophilic liquid active ingredient or an active ingredient combination in which a lipophilic liquid active ingredient and a lipophilic solid active ingredient are mixed.
[0041] FIG. 3 is a drawing for explaining a solid cosmetic (1000) according to one embodiment of the present invention. Without limitation, the solid cosmetic (1000) may be any one of shampoo, soap, foam cleanser, body cleanser, rinse, bubble bath, bath oil, scrub, massage cream, essence, serum, oil, pack, lotion, cream, or cleansing water.
[0042] Referring to FIG. 3, a solid cosmetic (1000) includes at least two clusters (100) and channeling pores (200) formed by adhesion or bonding of the clusters. The channeling pores (200) are formed on the surface and inside of the solid cosmetic (1000), and can serve to allow water, an aqueous solution, or a hydrophilic liquid to be rapidly absorbed into the interior of the solid cosmetic when the solid cosmetic is used. Preferably, the channeling pores (200) can be organically connected to each other in a network form to allow rapid penetration of water, an aqueous solution, or a hydrophilic liquid.
[0043] Channeling pores (200) may be a collection of pores having edges and sizes smaller than mm. Specifically, the channeling pores may be divided into pores (a) in the edge region that can move external water, aqueous solutions, or hydrophilic liquids into the solid cosmetic through capillary action, and pores in areas other than the edge region (hereinafter referred to as pores in the center region).
[0044] Pores (a) in the edge region can induce capillary action, allowing moisture to move into the solid cosmetic. For example, pores (a) in the edge region can be formed between two adjacent clusters. As shown in Fig. 3, when four clusters are adhered together, four pores in the edge region can be formed. If three clusters are adhered together, three pores in the edge region can be formed.
[0045] Additionally, the pores (b) in the central region can serve as passages for discharging air that is not discharged during the process of absorbing water into the solid cosmetic by capillary action. In this way, by discharging air, the factor that interrupts the functioning process due to the generation of air that is not discharged inside the solid cosmetic can be eliminated. The pores (b) in the central region can have a spacing exceeding 200 μm. The pores (b) in the areas other than the edges can be diamond-shaped pores formed by the four pores (a) in the edge regions.
[0046] Channeling pores (200) are formed by adhesion or bonding between adjacent clusters, and may include at least one pore (a) in an edge region that causes a capillary phenomenon to absorb water, an aqueous solution, or a hydrophilic liquid from the outside; and a pore (b) in a central region that is connected to the pore in the edge region and maintains the capillary phenomenon.
[0047] For example, and not limited to, in FIG. 2, a pore in a first edge region may be formed between a first cluster (100_1) and a second cluster (100_2), a pore in a second edge region may be formed between a second cluster (100_2) and a third cluster (100_3), a pore in a third edge region may be formed between a third cluster (100_3) and a fourth cluster (100_4), and a pore in a fourth edge region may be formed between a fourth cluster (100_4) and the first cluster (100_1), and the pores (a1) in the first edge region to the pores (a4) in the fourth edge region may each be connected to the pores (b) in the central region.
[0048] Water, an aqueous solution or a hydrophilic liquid from outside can be absorbed into the first cluster (100_1) and the second cluster (100_2) through a capillary phenomenon induced through the pores (a1) of the first edge region, and water, an aqueous solution or a hydrophilic liquid from outside can be absorbed into the second cluster (100_2) and the third cluster (100_3) through a capillary phenomenon induced through the pores (a2) of the second edge region. In addition, water, an aqueous solution or a hydrophilic liquid from outside can be absorbed into the third cluster (100_3) and the fourth cluster (100_4) through a capillary phenomenon induced through the pores (a3) of the third edge region, and water, an aqueous solution or a hydrophilic liquid from outside can be absorbed into the fourth cluster (100_4) and the first cluster (100_1) through a capillary phenomenon induced through the pores (a4) of the fourth edge region.
[0049] FIG. 4 is a drawing for explaining a method for manufacturing a solid cosmetic according to an embodiment of the present invention.
[0050] First, a hydrophilic solid active ingredient (1), a hydrophilic binder (2), and a hydrophilic liquid active ingredient (3) are dissolved in water using a homomixer or stirring mixing, and solid particles containing the liquid are prepared using spray drying. Optionally, when a lipophilic active ingredient is added, the active ingredient is dissolved in an aqueous dispersion state, i.e., a state evenly dispersed in water, and then added, and solid particles (10) containing the liquid are prepared using spray drying.
[0051] A cluster (100) is prepared by adding an adhesive or adhesive active ingredient (20) while stirring solid particles (10). When a volatile hydrophilic liquid is used for adhesive or bonding, the volatile hydrophilic liquid can be prepared by a method in which the cluster (100) is prepared through adhesive or bonding by dissolving or swelling the hydrophilic binder (2), which is the adhesive or adhesive active ingredient, and then removing the cluster (100) through heating, if necessary.
[0052] Thereafter, in the manufacturing process of a solid cosmetic (Fig. 4), at least two or more clusters (100) are placed in a container (step a), and after compression molding (step b), energy is applied to the surface to induce surface melting and cooling of the clusters (100), thereby causing the clusters (100) to adhere (step c), thereby manufacturing a solidified solid cosmetic (1000). Energy may also be applied to the surface through compression molding without limitation, and in the process of adhering the clusters (step c), the heating and cooling process or the microwave process and the cooling process may be repeated several times.
[0053] The solid cosmetic (1000) produced through the above method can increase the area of the solid cosmetic (1000) exposed to moisture through a capillary phenomenon by the pores (30) between the solid particles (10) inside the cluster (100) and the channeling pores (200) formed between the clusters (100), and can enable moisture to be quickly absorbed throughout the inside of the solid cosmetic (1000). Therefore, the solid cosmetic (1000) according to one embodiment of the present invention can stably contain an effective ingredient and be distributed and stored, and can quickly expose the effective or contained ingredient contained therein when the solid cosmetic (1000) is used.
[0054] In this specification, preferred embodiments of the present invention have been disclosed, and although specific terms have been used, they have been used in a general sense only to easily explain the technical contents of the present invention and to help understand the invention, and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention. It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that other modifications based on the technical idea of the present invention are possible in addition to the embodiments disclosed herein. Those skilled in the art will appreciate that the solid cosmetics and the method for manufacturing the same according to the embodiments described with reference to FIGS. 1 to 4 can be variously substituted, changed, and modified within the scope of the technical idea of the present invention. Therefore, the scope of the invention should not be defined by the described embodiments, but by the technical idea described in the claims.

[0077]
[0078] Comparative Example 1 is a case where the size of the solid particles is 50 ㎛ or less and the solid particles do not form clusters, Comparative Example 2 is a case where the size of the solid particles is 74 ㎛ or less and the solid particles do not form clusters, and Comparative Example 3 is a case where the size of the solid particles is 1000 ㎛ or less and the solid particles form clusters of 4000 ㎛ or less.
[0079] Example 1 is when the size of the solid particles is 50 ㎛ or less and the solid particles form clusters of 150 ㎛ or less, Example 2 is when the size of the solid particles is 74 ㎛ or less and the solid particles form clusters of 300 ㎛ or less, Example 3 is when the size of the solid particles is 74 ㎛ or less and the solid particles form clusters of 1000 ㎛ or less, Example 4 is when the size of the solid particles is 300 ㎛ or less and the solid particles form clusters of 2000 ㎛ or less, Example 5 is when the size of the solid particles is 500 ㎛ or less and the solid particles form clusters of 2000 ㎛ or less, and Example 6 is when the size of the solid particles is 850 ㎛ or less and the solid particles form clusters of 3000 ㎛ or less. As the size of the solid particles or the size of the clusters increases, the number of solid particles and the number of clusters included in the solid cosmetic decrease.
[0080] In Comparative Examples 1 and 2, water did not penetrate into the solid cosmetics within 30 seconds, and when rubbed with the palm to dissolve them in this state, they stuck to the palm and did not dissolve within 30 seconds. In addition, in Comparative Example 3, although the solid cosmetics dissolved in the form of solid particles, the particle size was large and did not completely dissolve within 30 seconds.
[0081] In the case of Comparative Example 4, since the size of the clusters became too large, uniformity was not formed in the production of the solid cosmetic, so water could not penetrate into the solid cosmetic within 30 seconds, and when rubbed with the palm to dissolve it in this state, it stuck to the palm and did not dissolve within 30 seconds.
[0082] In Examples 1 to 6, water penetrated inside within 30 seconds, and when the tablet was rubbed with both hands in this state, it was completely dissolved within 30 seconds.
[0083] Looking at the porosity (Ss / St) below 200 ㎛, the porosity (Sb / St) above 200 ㎛, and the porosity ratio (Ss / Sb) of Examples 1 to 6, it can be seen that as the size of the solid particles or clusters increases, the porosity (Ss / St) below 200 ㎛ and the porosity ratio (Ss / Sb) increase, and the porosity (Sb / St) above 200 ㎛ decreases. However, in the case of Example 6, when the size of the solid particles is large for the same cluster size (e.g., 2000 ㎛), the porosity (Ss / St) below 200 ㎛ may decrease, and the porosity (Sb / St) above 200 ㎛ and the porosity ratio (Ss / Sb) may decrease compared to Example 5. In the present invention, the porosity ratio (Ss / Sb) is preferably ≤ 2. If (Ss / Sb) > 2, it is believed that the Ta exceeds 30 seconds because the air that is not discharged is generated in the process of absorbing water into the solid cosmetic by capillary phenomenon, and this causes the function process to be partially interrupted or the bubbles to slowly escape and be absorbed.
[0084] In conclusion, when solid particles (10) of 850 ㎛ or less were manufactured, clusters of 200 to 3000 ㎛ were manufactured using these solid particles (10), and a solid cosmetic was manufactured based on the cluster, water penetrated into the solid cosmetic within 30 seconds and could be completely dissolved when rubbed between both palms for 30 seconds, thereby providing satisfaction and convenience in use.
[0085] FIG. 5 is a micrograph showing a solid cosmetic surface according to an embodiment of the present invention.
[0086] Referring to Fig. 5, it can be seen that channeling pores formed by the adhesion of clusters are distributed on the surface of the solid cosmetic.
[0087] FIG. 6 is a graph showing the pore distribution of a solid cosmetic according to an embodiment of the present invention, and was measured using Autopore 9620. Based on 200 μm in the pore distribution, the porosity below 200 μm (Ss / St) and the porosity above 200 μm (Sb / St) were calculated, and the porosity ratio (Ss / Sb) was calculated.
