Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional washing agents fail to reliably remove sebum and old keratin from human or animal skin surfaces, leading to issues like dandruff, itching, and skin disease exacerbation, especially for sensitive skin or pets.
Innovation Solution
A microbubble washing composition comprising protease and lipase, with specific alkali metal salts and silica-based desiccants, introduced into water to create microbubbles for effective skin cleansing.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If conventional washing agents are used, then washing can be performed, but sebum and old keratin cannot be reliably removed from skin surfaces
Solution Approach 1:
The patent changes the chemical parameters of the washing composition by incorporating specific enzymes (protease and lipase) that chemically decompose sebum and keratin. This enzymatic action fundamentally alters the washing mechanism from simple surfactant-based cleaning to biochemical decomposition, enabling reliable removal of stubborn substances like sebum and old keratin that conventional agents cannot eliminate.
Solution Approach 2:
The washing composition uses a composite formulation combining protease, lipase, and surfactants. This composite approach leverages the synergistic effects of different components: protease breaks down keratin, lipase breaks down sebum, and surfactants provide general cleaning and foaming properties. The combination creates a more effective washing system than any single component alone.
2Reliability
If washing frequency is increased to maintain cleanliness, then skin cleanliness improves, but skin disease may worsen and skin becomes rough
Solution Approach 1:
The patent replaces mechanical washing actions (rubbing, scrubbing) with biochemical decomposition through enzymes. The protease and lipase chemically break down sebum and keratin without requiring vigorous mechanical action, thereby maintaining skin cleanliness while avoiding mechanical irritation that can worsen skin diseases and cause roughness.
Solution Approach 2:
The washing composition is designed with specific enzyme concentrations and pH conditions optimized for gentle yet effective decomposition of skin impurities. This parameter optimization allows the washing agent to be effective at lower concentrations and with milder application, reducing skin irritation while maintaining cleanliness.
3Ease of operation
If known washing agents are used, then washing can be performed, but dandruff, itching, and odor occur after washing
Solution Approach 1:
The enzymatic components in the washing composition perform self-service by automatically decomposing organic matter like sebum, keratin, and dandruff during the washing process. The protease and lipase actively seek out and break down these substances without requiring additional mechanical intervention, thereby preventing dandruff, itching, and odor formation while maintaining washing convenience.
4Reliability
If washing time is extended to remove sebum and keratin, then cleaning effectiveness improves, but time consumption increases
Solution Approach 1:
The enzymes in the washing composition begin decomposing sebum and keratin immediately upon contact with the skin, performing preliminary biochemical action before rinsing. This pre-decomposition process occurs during the brief washing period, eliminating the need for extended washing times while achieving thorough cleaning effectiveness.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent replaces time-consuming mechanical scrubbing with rapid biochemical decomposition. The protease and lipase enzymes work quickly to break down sebum and keratin through chemical reactions, achieving effective cleaning in a short time without requiring prolonged mechanical agitation or extended washing duration.
