Description

  The present invention relates to a liquid crystal composition container containing a liquid crystal-containing composition and a liquid crystal composition product using the same, and more specifically, when a cosmetic containing liquid crystal is placed inside, the inside is beautiful. The present invention relates to a liquid crystal composition container in which an interference pattern can be seen and a liquid crystal composition product.

  In products such as cosmetics, not only the function but also the appearance is one of the factors that determine the value of the product, and many devices have been devised to enhance the appearance.

  For example, there are many known containers for cosmetics that look beautiful as a whole, but they are all devised for the appearance of the container, and those that make the entire product look beautiful in relation to the filling are known. It was not done.

  On the other hand, a material using a polarizing material is known as a container material itself. For example, Patent Document 1 discloses a beverage bag-like container having a dimensional stability and an easy-opening property in which a polyethylene layer, a metal foil, and a stretched resin film having a light distribution degree of a certain value or more are laminated in this order. (Patent Document 1). However, in the present invention, if the light distribution of the film is a certain value or more, it is easy to cut in that direction, and the container can be easily opened, and a metal foil that does not transmit light is used in the first place. Therefore, it is irrelevant in appearance to the one filled in the container.

  Moreover, although what has provided the polarizing member orthogonal to each other in both the transmission window opened in the magnetic tape cassette and the cassette housing container is also disclosed (Patent Document 2), this invention has the polarization axes mutually. Since it goes straight, light does not enter the cassette, so the inside of the cassette is protected from heat. On the other hand, light enters the outside of the cassette inside the storage container, so that title characters etc. written outside the cassette can be read. It is meaningless in terms of aesthetics.

Further, in the case where polarizing members whose polarization axes are orthogonal to each other are provided at opposite positions (for example, in the case of FIG. 4 and FIG. 9), both of these two polarizing members are not filled with the liquid crystal composition. There is almost no light passing through, so the other side cannot be seen. However, when the liquid crystal composition is filled as the contents, only the portion where the liquid crystal composition is present becomes transparent or translucent so that the other side of the container can be seen and the contents can be seen. That is, a liquid crystal composition product having a mysterious appearance in which only the liquid crystal composition is (semi-) transparent and the contents can be seen and the portion above the liquid gland of the liquid crystal composition is black and opaque can be obtained. .

  The liquid crystal composition is not particularly limited as long as it contains a liquid crystal, but a liquid crystal composition containing a liquid crystal such as a smectic liquid crystal or a nematic liquid crystal is preferably used.

  The liquid crystal composition is preferably transparent or translucent. The color is not limited, but the interference pattern is beautifully colored, and therefore the color of the composition itself is preferably colorless or light.

  The presence or absence of fluidity of the liquid crystal composition is not particularly limited, but fluidity is preferable because the interference pattern also moves as the liquid crystal composition flows in the container, and thus a more beautiful appearance is exhibited. The preferred viscosity is 20000 mPa · s or less, particularly preferably 10,000 mPa · s or less.

  The chemical composition of the liquid crystal composition of the present invention is not particularly limited, but those containing at least a phospholipid are preferable because they easily form liquid crystals. Particularly preferably, the phospholipid further contains a polyhydric alcohol and / or a lower alcohol, and more preferably a phospholipid, a polyhydric alcohol and a lower alcohol.

  The phospholipid is not particularly limited, but phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylethanolamine and the like are preferable, and phosphatidylcholine is particularly preferable. The polyhydric alcohol is not particularly limited, and examples thereof include glycerin, ethylene glycol, pentaerythritol, and trimethylolpropane. When the liquid crystal composition product of the present invention is applied to a living body such as a cosmetic, glycerin and the like are particularly preferable as the polyhydric alcohol. Further, the lower alcohol of the present invention is preferably a monohydric alcohol having 1 to 6 carbon atoms, and specifically includes methanol, ethanol, propanol, butanol, pentanol, hexanol and the like. Of these, ethanol and the like are preferred when applied to cosmetics and the like that are applied to living bodies.

  The composition containing the liquid crystal of the present invention only needs to have a function as a liquid crystal only for obtaining a beautiful appearance by putting it in the container, but the liquid crystal composition product can be used in cosmetics, cleaning agents, etc. If it is, it is necessary to have those functions together. In this case, even if the substance having the function itself is a liquid crystal, the substance having the function and the liquid crystal may be different substances.

  Preferable examples of the liquid crystal composition product of the present invention include cosmetics containing liquid crystals, and particularly preferably, cosmetics for skin such as skin lotions and cosmetics; shampoos, rinses, conditioners, hair styling agents, hair tonics. Cosmetics for hair such as nails, lips, eyelashes and the like; bath products; cosmetics such as fragrances.

  The reason why the liquid crystal composition product of the present invention can obtain a beautiful appearance is considered as follows. That is, the liquid crystal has polarization (anisotropy) due to its structure, and the appearance varies depending on the viewing direction. On the other hand, the liquid crystal composition container of the present invention has a structure in which the filler inside the container can be seen through a polarizing member installed in at least a part of the container. When the filling inside the container is viewed from the outside through the polarizing member, the liquid crystal can be clearly observed when the polarization property of the liquid crystal coincides with the polarization axis of the polarizing member, otherwise it is almost visible. No state. Therefore, since only a limited liquid crystal structure is observed in an emphasized state compared with normal visual observation, this is felt beautifully.
