Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
There is a need for cosmetic compositions that provide improved aesthetics, stability, and performance in hair care and skin care, including a shiny appearance without an oily feel, enhanced moisturizing effects, and better coverage of wrinkles and pores, while maintaining a smooth and light skin feel.
Innovation Solution
The development of cosmetic compositions comprising uncured silicone-based polymers with specific molecular structures and formulations, combined with cosmetically acceptable media and various cosmetic ingredients, to create products that offer conditioning, hold, and sun protection benefits.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Illumination intensity
If silicone materials are used to provide shiny appearance, then aesthetic benefit is improved, but oily feel and look worsen
Solution Approach 1:
The patent changes the physical and chemical parameters of silicone materials by using specific molecular weight ranges (50,000 to 5,000,000 g/mol) and viscosity ranges (100 to 10,000 cSt) to achieve optimal shine while minimizing oily feel. The uncured silicone polymer with specific structural parameters (x, y, N, d, q values) provides this controlled parameter optimization.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent creates a composite system combining uncured silicone-based polymers with specific cosmetic ingredients in a cosmetically acceptable medium. This composite approach allows the silicone polymer to provide shine while other components balance the sensory properties to reduce oily feel.
2Reliability
If cosmetic compositions are formulated for improved coverage and moisturizing effect, then skin care benefits are improved, but stability over time worsens
Solution Approach 1:
The patent optimizes compositional parameters including the molecular weight of silicone polymer (50,000 to 5,000,000 g/mol), viscosity (100 to 10,000 cSt), and specific structural parameters (x, y, N, d, q) to achieve a balance between providing coverage and moisturizing effects while maintaining stability over time and preventing phase separation.
3Reliability
If uncured silicone based polymers with specific molecular structures are used, then conditioning and hold benefits are improved, but formulation complexity worsens
Solution Approach 1:
The uncured silicone-based polymer serves multiple functions simultaneously: it provides conditioning benefits, hold benefits, and contributes to the overall stability of the cosmetic composition. This multi-functionality reduces the need for multiple separate ingredients, thereby simplifying the overall formulation despite the polymer's complex molecular structure.
