Description

An aqueous emulsion containing a cyclodextrin derivative, a fragrance and a polysorbate

The invention relates to an emulsion containing a cyclodextrin derivative, a fragrance and a polysorbate, and to processes for preparing this emulsion and their use.

Cyclodextrin derivatives are chemically modified cyclodextrins. Cyclodextrins are cyclic oligosaccharides composed of 6,7 or 8 OC (1-4) linked anhydroglucose units. The CC-, β- or γ-cyclodextrins produced by enzymatic conversion of starch differ in the diameter of their hydrophobic cavity and are suitable for the inclusion of numerous lipophilic substances. Cyclodextrin derivatives have a significantly higher water solubility than the corresponding unmodified cyclodextrin. Cyclodextrin derivatives can be used to modify the properties of other compounds, for example, to increase the water solubility of oil-soluble substances in water.

Fragrances are all natural and synthetic substances that have a smell. They are often volatile and inconsistent with oxidizing agents. Already in the air and in the light the behavior of these products changes in many ways. Examples of low-odor fragrances, ie substances with a high boiling point, are benzophenone, benzyl salicylate, galaxolides, derivatives of cinnamic aldehyde, or phenylethyl phenyl acetate. Examples of volatile odorants are cinnamyl alcohol, coumarin, derivatives of salicylic acid, phenolic fragrances such as vanillin or eugenol and cedryl derivatives. Examples of highly volatile fragrances are aldehydes, alcohols and esters of terpenes such as citral, linalool or geranyl acetate. Fragrances are also essential oils such as tea tree oil, citrus oils (lemon and orange oil), oils of herbs (rosemary, thyme, oregano oil), oils of woods (rosewood oil, cedar wood oil) cinnamon aldehyde ** or cinnamon bark oil, eugenol ** or clove flower oil , 4-terpineol, terpinene ** or Tea tree oil *, thymol ** or thyme oil "lypthusöl, camphor ** or camphor oil, geraniol ** or palmarosa, citronella and geranium oil *, Cedrol **, cedar wood oil * The substances marked with ** are active and mostly Main components of the mentioned essential oils marked with * These oils may have an antimicrobial, fungicidal and, due to their odor, insect repellent action based on the effect of individual components.

Fragrances are generally lipophilic and therefore form separate phases even when small quantities are added to an aqueous phase, which limits the desired broad use of fragrances in purely aqueous preparations such as coating agents. It has therefore already been attempted to increase the water solubility of the fragrances by complexing with cyclodextrins or cyclodextrin derivatives.

EP 1 002 549 A1 discloses in this respect a clear aqueous formulation which contains 0.01-1% by weight of a perfume in an aqueous cyclodextrin solution containing 0.1-5% by weight of a cyclodextrin.

WO 96/04938 describes a clear aqueous composition for odor reduction comprising 0.01-1% by weight of a perfume in one and up to 5% by weight of water-soluble cyclodextrins.

Such products are used for the coating of surfaces as in o.g. Fonts disclosed, used.

The prior art thus describes stable compositions containing up to 1% by weight of perfume in a clear aqueous cyclodextrin preparation. Upon further addition of perfume to the clear aqueous cyclodextrin preparation, it is not stable, ie two phases are formed within minutes. Such unstable aqueous Cyclodextrinzubereitung with lipophilic, ie oil-soluble fragrances are unsuitable for the occupancy of surfaces. The object of the invention was to provide a stable, aqueous, cyclodextrin preparation which contains larger amounts of hydrophobic fragrances than the preparations of the prior art.

This object is achieved by an aqueous emulsion containing a cyclodextrin derivative, a hydrophobic perfume and a polysorbate characterized in that it contains the cyclodextrin derivative in an amount of 6% to 35 wt.%, Preferably 10 to 20 wt.% And the hydrophobic Fragrance in an amount of 3 to 20% by weight, preferably 6 to 12 wt.% Contains and the polysorbate in an amount of 4% to 20 wt.%, Preferably 6% to 12 wt.% And water.

The hydrophobic perfume is preferably a perfume, particularly preferably a hydrophobic perfume which has an antimicrobial, fungicidal or insect-repellent effect due to its odor.

The cyclodextrin derivative is preferably a derivative of CC-, β- or γ-cyclodextrin, more preferably it is methyl-beta-cyclodextrin (M-beta-CD) or hydroxypropyl-beta-cyclodextrin (HP-beta). CD).

The polysorbate is preferably polyoxyethylene (20) sorbitan mono-oleate (polysorbate 80) commercially available under the name Tween® 680 from Lonza Basel, Switzerland, polyoxyethylene sorbitan tristearate (polysorbate 65), commercially available from US Pat Tween® 65 at Lonza Basel, Switzerland or polyoxyethylene (20) sorbitan monolaurate (Polysorbate 20), commercially available under the name Tween® 20 from Lonza Basel, Switzerland.

In particular, it is preferably Tween® 20 (polyoxyethylene (20) sorbitan monolaurate).

In particular, the emulsion preferably contains, in addition to water, from 6% to 35% by weight of methyl-beta-cyclodextrin, or hydroxypropyl Beta-cyclodextrin 3 to 20% by weight of a fragrance and 4 to 20% by weight of polyoxyethylene (20) sorbitan monolaurate.

For the purposes of the present invention, stable is understood to mean that the emulsion shows no phase separation over a period of at least 2 weeks, preferably more than 20 weeks.

The emulsion according to the invention is more effective than the ones described in the prior art. The release of the

The guest substance of the fragrance, for example, is sensory (odor strength 0-15) as well as analytic (more pronounced via solid phase microextraction / SPME analysis).

The emulsion according to the invention can be prepared in a manner known per se. This can be done, for example, by a mixture of 6% to 35% by weight, preferably 10 to 20% by weight, of cyclodextrin derivative and 3 to 20% by weight, preferably 6 to 12% by weight of hydrophobic perfume and 4% to 20% by weight. , Preferably 6% to 12 wt.% Polysorbate is processed in water to a stable emulsion. The mixture of the components mentioned is stirred intensively.

The invention thus also relates to a process for preparing an emulsion which is characterized in that a mixture of 6% to 35% by weight, preferably 10 to 20% by weight, of cyclodextrin or cyclodextrin derivative and 3 to 20% by weight, preferably 6 to 12% by weight of hydrophobic perfume and 4% to 20% by weight, preferably 6% to 12% by weight, of polysorbate in water to form a stable emulsion.

The emulsion according to the invention is particularly suitable for coating surfaces, since the emulsion according to the invention distributes itself extremely uniformly on arbitrary surfaces and penetrates only moderately. The coating of the surfaces with the emulsion according to the invention takes place without streaks and staining. A double coating is carried out in most cases, the coated surfaces are more uniform than surfaces coated with clear aqueous cyclodextrin preparations. There are no colored edges.

The emulsion of the invention can be applied directly to the surface to be coated, but it can initially be incorporated into a coating agent. The coating agents may be a color, e.g. to trade a wall color. Preferably, the emulsion is incorporated in an amount of 0.1 to 90% by weight in the coating agent.

The invention thus also relates to a coating composition comprising an emulsion according to the invention.

The surfaces to be coated are, for example, mineral or organic surfaces. Examples of mineral surfaces are stone, concrete or building materials. Examples of organic surfaces are lifeless organic surfaces such as textiles / nonwoven, wood, paper or leather) but also living organic surfaces such as skin or hair.

The coating of the surfaces is carried out by applying the emulsion according to the invention or the coating agent according to the invention and optionally drying the surface.

A surface coated with an emulsion according to the invention has several advantages: In the case of lifeless organic surfaces such as nonwovens or textiles, the nature ("feel") of the material is not changed In contrast, loading the surface with a clear aqueous cyclodextrin preparation without addition of polysorbate at the same active ingredient concentration of the fragrance to a rigidity of the occupied tissue whose wearing property is described as sticky. The invention thus also relates to surfaces which are characterized in that they have been coated with an emulsion according to the invention or a coating composition according to the invention.
