[0003] However, nitrocellulose tends to undergo a rapid change in viscosity with the passage of time, which causes problems in that it is difficult to apply nail polish and that it is difficult to form a cured film after drying. The synthesis and handling of nitrocellulose requires great caution and caution because of the danger of explosion. For this reason, the number of manufacturers of nitrocellulose and nitrocellulose mixtures is small, and this is one of the causes of the very small number of manufacturers of nail polish in Japan. Furthermore, if free acid is present in the nail polish solution, it not only damages the nail and amazon, but is also harmful to the coloring agent in the nail polish solution. Care must be taken to ensure that they are neutral and do not contain any acids.

[0004] In order to solve these drawbacks, investigations have been made on a material that can replace nitrocellulose as a film-forming substance for beautifying liquids. However, a sufficient material has been found as a substitute material for nitrocellulose. Not in. Also,
Conventionally, organic solvents such as toluene, acetate esters, and acetone have been used as nitrocellulose solvents for beautifiers, but they have serious disadvantages such as flammability, solvent odor, and adverse effects on the human body.

[0005] Therefore, with the recent increase in safety thinking,
BACKGROUND ART Nail cellulose having no adverse effect on the human body and a type of nail polish which does not use an organic solvent, for example, an aqueous nail polish are being studied. For water-based nail polishes, the development of products with coating properties such as adhesion, film strength, gloss, and quick drying, which are equivalent to those of conventional organic solvent-type nail polishes, is required.
Since water is used as a solvent, it has low volatility and a low drying rate as compared with a conventional nail polish using an organic solvent as a solvent.

[0009] The nail polish of the present invention, which uses ethanol as a solvent, is highly toxic to conventionally used toluene and acetate esters, and has a bad influence on the human body, and also has a negative effect on the nails such as yellowing. Since no solvent is contained, there is no adverse effect on the nails, and the use of ethanol as a remover can easily remove the applied nail polish. As a result, the effect on the nail is extremely small, and the nail material can be removed without removing oil and moisture from the nail.
