Internal Olefin Sulfonate Cleansing Composition Foam Durability
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing cleansing agents for skin and hair often compromise on durability of foam, rinse feel, combing property, and moist feeling due to the adverse effects of oil solutions used in combination with anionic surfactants, leading to poor manageability and softness post-washing.
Innovation Solution
A cleansing composition combining an internal olefin sulfonate with 16-18 carbon atoms and a specific oil solution having low water solubility, optimizing the mass ratio and sulfonate group distribution to enhance foam durability, rinse feel, and skin/hair manageability.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If oil solutions are used in combination with anionic surfactants to improve skin/hair feel, then the initial comfort is enhanced, but the durability of foam, rinse feel, and combing property deteriorate
Solution Approach 1:
The invention changes the chemical parameters of the surfactant system by using internal olefin sulfonate with specific carbon atom counts (12-24) and controlled sulfonate group distribution. This parameter change allows the system to maintain both the initial comfort from oil solution interaction and the foam durability that was previously compromised
Solution Approach 2:
The invention creates a composite surfactant system combining internal olefin sulfonate with specific oil solutions. The composite effect produces synergistic results where the surfactant-oil combination maintains both immediate skin/hair feel benefits and long-term foam stability without the adverse effects seen in conventional anionic surfactant systems
2Reliability
If conventional anionic surfactants are used to achieve detergency, then cleaning performance is achieved, but combing property and softness of hair after rinsing deteriorate
Solution Approach 1:
The invention changes the molecular parameters of the surfactant by using internal olefin sulfonate with 12-24 carbon atoms and controlled sulfonate group positioning. This parameter modification maintains effective detergency while improving hair combing property and softness after rinsing
3Power
If conventional anionic surfactants are used to achieve foaming performance, then initial foam generation is good, but durability of foam and rinse feel deteriorate
Solution Approach 1:
The invention forms a composite system where internal olefin sulfonate works synergistically with oil solutions. This composite approach maintains strong initial foaming performance while significantly improving foam durability and rinse feel that were previously compromised
