Coated Particles for Cosmetics and Cosmetics

[0001] The present invention relates to coated particles for cosmetics and cosmetics.

[0002] In order to impart a soft and moist feeling to the skin in cosmetics and to impart other effects (cosmetic effects, ultraviolet protection effects, etc.), various powder raw materials (synthetic resin beads derived from petroleum such as nylon and silicone and natural-derived powder raw materials, etc.) are used, and various improvements have been made to meet the needs of the market. For example, as a natural-derived powder raw material used for the purpose of improving the usability of cosmetics, cellulose acetate particles coated with a metal soap-based treatment agent and hydrophobized have been studied (Patent Document 1).

[0029] <Coated Particles for Cosmetics> The content of the leaf powder in the coating layer is preferably 0.01 to 10% by weight, and more preferably 0.5 to 7% by weight, based on the weight of particle (B). When the content of the leaf powder is within the above numerical range, the feel of the coated particles for cosmetics tends to improve (softness, smoothness, and moistness of the skin).

[0030] The content of the ester compound (A) in the coating layer is preferably 0.01 to 10% by weight, and more preferably 0.1 to 3% by weight, based on the weight of the particles (B). When the content of the ester compound (A) is within the above numerical range, the feel of the coated particles for cosmetics (softness, smoothness, and moistness) tends to improve.

[0031] The weight ratio of the leaf powder to the ester compound (A) is preferably 0.01:1 to 100:1, and more preferably 0.1:1 to 50:1.

[0032] The content of the ester compound (A) in the coated particles for cosmetics of the present invention can be calculated from the mixing ratio of each raw material when the coated particles for cosmetics are manufactured. Alternatively, by using an X-ray photoelectron spectrometer (XPS) (such as the ESCA-5400 manufactured by ULVAC-FI), the number of photoelectrons can be measured in the bond energy range of 100 to 1500 eV, and the peak area value in the range of 275 to 290 eV derived from C can be determined. By referring to the carbon bond quantitative values ​​of each component of the disclosed coated particles for cosmetics, the content of the ester compound (A) can be calculated from the peak area value.

[0033] The BET specific surface area of ​​coated particles for cosmetics should be between 0.1 and 60 m², considering the design flexibility of cosmetic formulations and the feel of the cosmetic product. ２ It is preferably 0.2 to 60 m / g. ２ It is more preferable that the amount is 0.5 to 40 m / g. ２It is even more preferable that it be / g.

[0035] <Method for Manufacturing Coated Particles for Cosmetics> The coated particles for cosmetics of the present invention can be manufactured by mixing particles (B), leaf powder, and an ester compound (A). The manufacturing method can be a dry method in which coating is performed without using a solvent, or a wet method in which the particles (B) are coated using leaf powder and ester compound (A) dispersed or dissolved in a solvent. From the viewpoint of environmental considerations and the freedom of the concentration and type of coating agent, the dry method is preferred.

[0036] A dry method for producing coated particles for cosmetics involves mixing particles (B), leaf powder, and ester compound (A) without using a solvent, using a stirrer (mill mixer, pencil mixer, planetary mixer, disper mixer, homo mixer, intensive mixer, ribbon blender, jet mill, ball mill, kneader, extruder, mortar and pestle, etc.), pulverizer, mixer, disperser, etc., to coat the particles (B) with the leaf powder and ester compound (A). There are no particular restrictions on the order of mixing; the particles (B), leaf powder, and ester compound (A) may be added and mixed simultaneously, or the particles (B) and leaf powder may be mixed first, and then the ester compound (A) may be added and mixed. It is preferable to add and mix the ester compound (A) after mixing the particles (B) and leaf powder, as this improves the surface hydrophobicity of the coated particles for cosmetics when the layer containing the ester compound (A) is formed as the outermost layer of the coating. In the dry method, the coating process may be carried out while applying energy such as heat, ultraviolet light, lasers, and electromagnetic waves.

[0037] In the dry method, the mixing time can be adjusted according to the machine used and the processing volume, and it is preferable to mix until the surface of the cosmetic-coated particles exhibits hydrophobicity. Specifically, it is preferable to mix until the "degree of surface hydrophobicity of coated particles (%)" measured by the following method is 90% or higher. The following measurement utilizes the phenomenon that when the degree of surface hydrophobicity is high, even when coated particles are mixed with water, the number of coated particles that float on the water surface without dispersing in the water increases. 0.1 g of coated particles are placed in a 30 mL beaker containing 24.9 g of purified water, and stirred for 30 minutes using a magnetic stirrer. Then, using a syringe (capacity 5 mL), 1 to 2 mL of coated particles dispersed in the purified water, avoiding the particles on the water surface, are collected together with the purified water as a coated particle dispersion. The weight of the collected coated particle dispersion and the dry weight after drying the entire collected coated particle dispersion at 105°C for 1 hour using a forward-wind dryer are measured. The measured weights are substituted into the following formula to determine the "degree of surface hydrophobicity of coated particles (%)". Degree of surface hydrophobicity of coated particles (%) = [1 - {(25 × dry weight of recovered coated particle dispersion (g)) / (weight of recovered coated particle dispersion (g)) / 0.1}] × 100

[0038] Furthermore, the mixing temperature in the dry method is preferably between 0°C and 50°C.

[0039] One method for producing coated particles for cosmetics by a wet method is to coat particles (B) with leaf powder and ester compound (A) by mixing particles (B) with leaf powder and ester compound (A) dissolved or dispersed in a solvent (water and / or organic solvent). In the wet method, organic solvents are preferred, with ester oils and hydrocarbon oils being preferred, and monoesters of lauric acid and 1-hexanol, decane, dodecane, isododecane, and squalane being particularly preferred. The amount of solvent is preferably 40% by weight or more relative to the weight of particles (B). The total weight ratio of leaf powder and ester compound (A) to the solvent is preferably 0.1 to 20% by weight, and more preferably 1 to 5% by weight. The weight ratio of the processed solution obtained by dissolving or dispersing leaf powder and ester compound (A) in the solvent to particles (B) is preferably 30:70 to 99:1. The apparatus used in the wet method is not particularly limited as long as it is capable of stirring and heating.

[0040] In the wet process, it is preferable to have a step to remove the solvent. Methods for removing the solvent include vaporizing the solvent from the mixture of particles (B), leaf powder, ester compound (A), and solvent by heating and / or reducing the pressure and then distilling it off, and extracting and removing the solvent from the mixture. Methods for extracting and removing the solvent from the mixture include mixing the mixture with other organic solvents other than the solvent contained in the mixture [ether-based solvents (diethyl ether, tetrahydrofuran, etc.), and hydrocarbon-based solvents (toluene, hexane, etc.)] and extracting the solvent contained in the mixture with the other organic solvent.

[0041] As solvents in the wet method, ester oils, hydrocarbon oils, fatty acid oils, aliphatic alcohol oils, silicone oils, etc. can be mentioned. These are also used as components of cosmetics and are less likely to irritate the skin even if they remain on the coated particles for cosmetics. As the ester oil, ester oils known as raw materials for cosmetics can be used, and the liquid fats and oils and synthetic ester oils described in JP-A-2020-26432 can be used. Triesters of caprylic acid and capric acid with glycerin, diesters of caprylic acid and capric acid with propanediol, and monoesters of lauric acid and 1-hexanol can be preferably used. As the hydrocarbon oil, hydrocarbon oils known as raw materials for cosmetics can be used, and hydrocarbon oils such as squalane described in JP-A-2020-26432 can be used. As the fatty acid oil, fatty acid oils known as raw materials for cosmetics can be used, and saturated fatty acids having 9 or less carbon atoms can be preferably used. As the aliphatic alcohol oil, aliphatic alcohol oils known as raw materials for cosmetics can be used, and saturated aliphatic alcohols having 11 or less carbon atoms can be preferably used. As the silicone oil, silicone oils known as raw materials for cosmetics can be used, and silicone oils such as those described in JP-A-2020-26432 can be used.

[0042] The solvent remaining on the coated particles for cosmetics obtained by the wet method is preferably 20% by weight or less, more preferably 5% by weight or less, based on the weight of the coated particles for cosmetics. The weight of the solvent remaining on the coated particles for cosmetics is obtained by stirring and mixing the coated particles for cosmetics with methanol or hexane of the same weight as the coated particles for cosmetics at 25 °C for 30 minutes, filtering off the solid part, and calculating the ratio of the evaporation residue of the filtrate to the dry weight of the solid part.

[0043] <Cosmetics> The cosmetics of the present invention contain coated particles for cosmetics.

The weight of the collected coated particle dispersion and the dry weight after drying the entire collected coated particle dispersion at 105°C for 1 hour using a forward-wind dryer were measured. The measured weights were substituted into the following formula, and the degree of surface hydrophobicity of the coated particles is recorded in Tables 1 to 4. Degree of Surface Hydrophobicity of Coated Particles (%) = [1 - {(25 × Dry Weight of Collected Coated Particle Dispersion (g)) / (Weight of Collected Coated Particle Dispersion (g)) / 0.1}] × 100
