Description

DISPERSANT COMPOSITIONS COMPRISING HYDROPHOBIC AND HYDROPHILIC MODIFIED MALEATED NATURAL OILS, AND APPLICATIONS THEREOF FIELD OF THE INVENTION [0001] The present application relates to dispersant compositions comprising modified maleated natural oils. Further, the present application provides use of these compositions as wetting agents and dispersing agents in personal care, coatings, agriculture, and pharmaceuticals. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0002] Modified natural oils can be non-dispersible in water or alcohols. As a result, these oils can be incorporated into a wide variety of compositions. Such compositions include, but are not limited to, personal care (e.g., hair care, sun care, skin care, oral care), adhesives, coatings, paints, electronics, household, industrial and institutional (HI&I) compositions, inks, membranes, metal working fluids, oilfield chemicals, plastics and plasticizers, textiles, industrial products, biocides, pharmaceuticals/nutritional, and agrochemical compositions. [0003] Natural oils, such as soybean and linseed oils, are one of the most promising raw materials for the synthesis of renewable compounds, including polymers, plastics, and plasticizers. These natural materials are inexpensive, highly abundant, come from reliable and sustainable sources, and have high potential for modification. Natural oils are generally blends of different triglycerides, the esterification product of fatty acids and glycerol, and contain varying degrees of unsaturation (i.e., double bonds). Oils can be characterized by a hydroxyl value and the fatty acid compositions. Both natural fatty acids and natural oils must be chemically modified to make them sufficiently reactive to allow structural alterations and polymerizations to occur because the olefin functional groups are relatively unreactive. Unsaturated double bonds in these compounds have been converted to epoxide functional groups and succinic anhydride functional groups, allowing the addition of many hydroxyl containing species to be introduced into the natural oils. [0004] Maleated natural oils are natural oils that have been chemically functionalized by the chemical addition of epoxide (oxirane) and succinic anhydride functional groups. Examples include epoxidized and maleated soybean oil and linseed oil, unsaturated natural oils lend themselves to this chemical functionalization. [0005] Dispersing agents are commonly used to wet out the dry filler during mixing, reduce the viscosity and make the formulation more workable. Numerous dispersing agents are available in the market. One such example are pigments which are traditionally milled and sold as powders or as dispersion in solvent. [0006] PCT Application WO2019/113068A1 (assigned to) and WO2005/071050A1 (assigned to) describes a technology related to metalworking fluids comprising maleated soybean oil derivatives. [0007] PCT Application WO2021252426A1 assigned to Sun Chemical Corporation discloses a solid pigment dispersion comprising one or more pigments approved for cosmetic use and a combination of one or more oils and/or waxes that are plant-based wherein the dispersion is in the form of a dry powder. [0008] US granted patent US10836910B2 assigned to Sherwin Williams Co. discloses concentrate for use in the manufacture of fluid colorants or finished coating compositions, wherein at least 95 wt.% of the concentrate is a mixture of (i) solid pigment particles with (ii) a non-volatilizing, reactive liquid diluent having a viscosity less than 1,000 cps, and comprising at least 60 wt.% of one or more molecular species having at least three reactive unsaturated sites and having a molar equivalent weight per reactive unsaturated site that is less than 500 grams (g), wherein when the reactive liquid diluent does not by itself stably disperse the pigment particles then the concentrate also contains (iii) one or more pigment wetting or dispersing agents. [0009] There is a need in the art for a dispersion composition for use in personal care and coatings which are prepared from materials that are renewable, natural, and biodegradable having different and controllable chemical, physical, and/or mechanical properties such that the limitations found in natural and maleated natural oils are minimized or eliminated.

Dixon (section II in Polymer Handbook, volume 1, 4th edition, Wiley- Interscience, 1999), which is herein incorporated in its entirety by reference. [0078] The maleinization reaction in natural oil can occur under heating in three different ways. The first one is known as “Ene” reaction (reaction between an allylic hydrogen and an enophile- pericyclic reaction), obtaining a triglyceride structure with anhydride moieties (succinic anhydride). The second one is a radical addition, which consumes a double bond in the fatty acid, incorporating the succinic anhydride into the natural oil structure. The final reaction is also a radical addition that incorporates the maleic anhydride into the natural oil structure without consuming C=C bonds (fatty acid chain and maleic anhydride); this reaction occurs due to deprotonation of a hydrogen between two alkenes groups. Subsequently, the maleinized natural oil can be reacted with hydrophobic moiety and the hydrophilic moiety of a hydrocarbyl alcohol, a hydrocarbyl amine, a silicon-based compound forming a reticulated structure (see examples). This kind of reaction has been applied at the reaction occurred by heating 6-10 hours at 210^oC.
