Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing cosmetic compositions often contain harmful synthetic ingredients that can cause skin issues, and there is a need for natural substances that effectively promote percutaneous absorption of skin improvement active ingredients.
Innovation Solution
A method for manufacturing a spicule coated with diamond, involving washing, encapsulating active ingredients in the spicule's inner holes, coating with silica, modifying with an amino group using aminosilane and lysine, and further coating with a second active ingredient and diamond, to enhance percutaneous absorption and skin benefits.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Object-affected harmful factors
If natural substances like spicule are used as cosmetic ingredients, then skin safety and eco-friendliness are improved, but percutaneous absorption capability is insufficient
Solution Approach 1:
The spicule surface is modified with amino groups at specific locations to enhance percutaneous absorption capability while maintaining the natural spicule structure for skin safety. The amino group coating is applied locally on the spicule surface rather than changing the entire spicule composition.
Solution Approach 2:
The invention creates a composite structure by coating natural spicule with diamond particles and amino groups. This composite material combines the skin safety of natural spicule with the enhanced absorption capability of amino-functionalized surface and the exfoliation effect of diamond.
2Reliability
If multiple coating steps are performed on spicule, then percutaneous absorption and skin improvement effects are enhanced, but manufacturing complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The spicule surface is preliminarily treated with silica coating before amino group modification. This preliminary action creates a suitable surface for subsequent amino group attachment and diamond coating, ensuring better adhesion and distribution of functional groups.
Solution Approach 2:
The manufacturing process is divided into distinct sequential steps: silica coating, amino group modification, and diamond coating. Each step is optimized independently and can be controlled separately, making the complex process more manageable and reproducible.
3Reliability
If amino groups are introduced to spicule surface, then percutaneous absorption is improved, but manufacturing precision requirements increase
Solution Approach 1:
Silica acts as an intermediary layer between the spicule surface and the amino groups. The silica coating provides a uniform surface that facilitates even distribution of amino groups during the modification step, reducing variability in the final product.
