Description

  The present invention relates to silica composite polymer particles and a method for producing the same. More specifically, the present invention relates to silica composite polymer particles in which a silica component is unevenly distributed and a method for producing the same.

Polymer particles having various structures have been studied in fields where diffuse light reflectivity is desired, such as paints and cosmetics. For example, for addition to cosmetics, nylon fine particles, polymethyl methacrylate fine particles and the like are widely used because of their excellent extensibility.
However, since nylon fine particles adsorb components such as preservatives added to cosmetics, the antiseptic effect may change over time, which is not preferable.

  In addition, since conventional polymethyl methacrylate fine particles have poor oil resistance and solvent resistance, there is a problem that aggregation occurs between particles in the presence of an oil component such as a humectant or alcohol.

  In order to improve oil resistance and solvent resistance, crosslinked polymethyl methacrylate fine particles obtained by copolymerizing methyl methacrylate and a polyfunctional vinyl monomer have been reported. However, although these fine particles have improved oil resistance and solvent resistance, there is room for improvement in terms of the feeling of use and the natural finish due to the light diffusion effect of the particles.

Therefore, in order to improve the above problems, composite particles in which the surface of the polymer particles is covered with another polymer or an inorganic substance have been reported.
Among these, the composite particle in which the surface of the latter polymer particle is covered with an inorganic substance has an advantage that the refractive index at the interface between the polymer particle and the inorganic substance can be made larger than the refractive index at the interface between the polymers. is there. In addition, the former composite particles have an advantage that the touch feeling is better than the latter composite particles.

A composite particle in which the surface of a polymer particle is covered with an inorganic substance is reported, for example, in JP-A-5-170924 (Patent Document 1). This publication describes composite particles in which a material that is smaller than a thermoplastic material and excellent in heat resistance is immobilized on the surface of the thermoplastic material. The method for producing composite particles described in this publication obtains composite particles by mechanical shearing force by raising the temperature of a thermoplastic material to a softening point or higher and stirring a material having excellent heat resistance and the thermoplastic material. Is the method.
Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 5-170924

  Since the composite particles described in the above publication merely mechanically or physically cover the surface of the polymer particles with the inorganic material, there is a possibility that the inorganic material may fall off from the surface of the polymer particle.

  The inventor of the present invention has conducted extensive research to solve the above problems, and as a result, the polymerizable vinyl monomer is polymerized by aqueous suspension polymerization in the presence of a polyalkoxysiloxane oligomer and a specific silanol group-forming silane compound. Silica composite in which the polyalkoxysiloxane oligomer and the silanol group-forming silane compound-derived silica component are unevenly distributed in the polymer component by condensing the polyalkoxysiloxane oligomer and the silanol group-forming silane compound. Surprisingly, it was found that polymer particles can be obtained, and the obtained particles are excellent in light diffuse reflectance, and the present invention has been achieved.

Thus, according to the present invention, silica composite polymer particles containing a polymer component derived from a polymerizable vinyl monomer and a silica component,

In order to obtain silica particles having a specific surface area of 50 to 300 m ² / g and having many pleats on the surface when the silica composite polymer particles are baked to remove the polymer component, There is provided a silica composite polymer particle characterized in that a component is unevenly distributed in the silica composite polymer particle.

In addition, according to the present invention, 100 parts by weight of a polymerizable vinyl monomer, 10 to 500 parts by weight of a polyalkoxysiloxane oligomer inert to the polymerizable vinyl monomer, and the following general formula (R ¹ O) _m SiR ² _4-m

There is provided a method for producing silica composite polymer particles, wherein the polyalkoxysiloxane oligomer and silanol group-forming silane compound are condensed by adding an acid or base catalyst to obtain a silica component.

  The silica composite polymer particles of the present invention are excellent in light diffusion reflectivity. Therefore, for example, by blending in cosmetics, reflection of light in the regular reflection direction can be suppressed, so a natural finish can be expected.

Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in more detail.
In the silica composite polymer particle of the present invention, the silica component is unevenly distributed in the spherical or substantially spherical polymer component. The uneven distribution can be confirmed by the shape of the silica particles derived from the silica component obtained by firing the silica composite polymer particles and removing the polymer component. For example, the silica component is unevenly distributed in the silica composite polymer particle in a state corresponding to a specific surface area of 50 to 300 m ² / g and silica particles having a large number of creases on the surface as shown in FIG. Conceivable. By having such a structure, complex reflection and refraction of light occurs as compared with spherical silica or coated polymer particles whose surface is coated with silica or the like. As a result, it is possible to obtain silica composite polymer particles capable of expressing strong light diffuse reflectance.

(Measurement of average particle size)
The average particle diameter is a value measured with Multisizer II (manufactured by Beckman Coulter). The value is measured by calibrating with a 50 μm aperture according to Reference MANUAL FOR THE COULTER MULTISIZER (1987) published by Coulter Electronics Limited.

  Specifically, 0.1 g of particles were predispersed in 10 ml of a 0.1% nonionic surfactant solution using a touch mixer and ultrasonic waves, and this was equipped with an ISOTON II (manufactured by Beckman Coulter, Inc .: measurement) In a beaker filled with an electrolytic solution), dripping with a dropper while gently stirring, adjust the reading of the densitometer on the main body screen to about 10%. Next, an aperture size of 50 μm, a current of 800, a gain of 4, and a polarity of + are input to the Multisizer II main body (the aperture size and the like can be changed as required) and measured manually. During the measurement, the beaker is stirred gently to the extent that bubbles do not enter, and the measurement is terminated when 100,000 particles are measured. The average particle diameter is an average value of the measured values.

(Measurement of reflected light intensity)
Adhere double-sided tape to black and white concealment test paper (manufactured by Toyo Seiki Co., Ltd.) so that air does not enter. Apply to the adhesive side of the double-sided tape while spreading the particles uniformly with a cosmetic puff. Excess particles are thoroughly swept away using a brush to obtain a sample. The reflected light intensity distribution at a reflection angle of 0 to 90 ° at an incident angle of −45 ° is measured for the obtained sample with a three-dimensional photometer (Goniophotometer GP-200 manufactured by Murakami Color Research Laboratory).

  From the reflected light intensity distribution, the light intensity at a reflection angle of 0 ° is calculated, and the peak light intensity in the regular reflection direction is calculated as 100. This means that the closer the light intensity is to 100, the more the light intensity of the reflected light does not change in the regular reflection direction or in the diffuse reflection direction, and it is defined that the diffuseness of the reflected light is large.
