Sprayable Cosmetic Fiber Composition for Uniform Hair Application
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional sprayable hair cosmetics often lack satisfactory application properties, particularly in terms of spray pattern and distribution uniformity, which can lead to uneven styling results.
Innovation Solution
Incorporating fibers such as cotton, kapok, and cellulose fibers into the cosmetic composition, along with ethanol, polymers, and a propellant, enhances the spray pattern and application uniformity by utilizing the fibers' elongated structure and suspension in ethanol.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Manufacturing precision
If conventional sprayable hair cosmetics are used, then the product can be applied to hair, but the spray pattern is uneven and distribution uniformity is poor
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces fibers as an intermediary substance suspended in the cosmetic composition. These fibers act as a mediator that improves the spray pattern and distribution uniformity by providing a structural framework that facilitates even dispersion of the cosmetic agents throughout the spray cloud, directly addressing the uneven spray pattern problem.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent creates a composite cosmetic composition by combining traditional cosmetic agents (polymers, solvents, propellants) with fibers. This composite structure leverages the properties of both components: the cosmetic agents provide styling functionality while the fibers enhance spray pattern uniformity and distribution, resolving the contradiction between spray quality and application ease.
2Reliability
If hair gels and hair waxes are used, then styling can be achieved, but the product is difficult to distribute once applied to hair
Solution Approach 1:
The patent utilizes propellant-driven aerosol delivery to transform the application method from manual distribution (comb or hands) to pneumatic distribution via spray. The propellant gas carries the cosmetic composition containing fibers, enabling uniform distribution across the hair surface without requiring manual manipulation, thus improving ease of operation while maintaining styling reliability.
3Manufacturing precision
If hairsprays are used, then even distribution can be achieved, but application properties can still be improved
Solution Approach 1:
The patent modifies the physical parameters of the cosmetic composition by incorporating fibers with specific dimensions and properties. These parameter changes in the composition affect the spray dynamics, droplet formation, and distribution characteristics, enabling improved application properties and enhanced distribution uniformity beyond conventional hairsprays.
