Description

  The present invention, when blended in a cosmetic composition, has good adsorptivity to hair and skin, provides a good conditioning effect, can provide a set effect without heating after drying, The present invention relates to a cation-modified tracant gum that does not exhibit the flaking phenomenon often seen in commonly used set agents, and a cosmetic composition containing the same, particularly a hair treatment composition.

  A hair treatment composition for the purpose of washing contains a conditioning agent for damaging the hair due to tangling of the hair during washing and rinsing, and for improving the feel after washing. For this reason, it is essential that the conditioning agent be adsorbed on the hair, and as the substance that gives the conditioning effect, the hair surface is negatively charged, so that a cationic polymer having an adsorption action mainly based on ionicity is used. ing. As the cationic polymer, a water-soluble polymer obtained by introducing a quaternary nitrogen-containing group into a polysaccharide such as a cellulose derivative, guar gum or starch, a dialkyl diallylammonium salt polymer, or the like is used.

For example, Patent Document 1 discloses that a cation-modified cellulose derivative having a quaternary nitrogen-containing group introduced therein is used for shampoos and hair cosmetics.
Patent Document 2 discloses that a cation-modified starch having a quaternary nitrogen-containing group introduced therein is used for hair care products such as shampoos and rinses.

Patent Document 3, Patent Document 4, and Patent Document 5 disclose, in Patent Document 6, a cation-modified guar gum obtained by cation-modifying a guar gum having a main chain mannose and side chain galactose belonging to galactomannan polysaccharide of 2: 1. Is a cation-modified locust bean gum obtained by cationic modification of locust bean gum having a main chain of mannose and side chain galactose of 4 to 1, and Patent Document 7 discloses a galactomannan polysaccharide having different composition ratios of guar gum and mannose and galactose. Cationic modified polygalactomannans obtained by cationically modifying bean gum have been shown to be used in hair care products such as shampoos and rinses and body soaps. However, in the case of cation-modified guar gum using guar gum, the characteristics of guar gum appear even after cation modification, and it is not sufficient in comparison with the cation-modified tracant gum of the present invention in terms of conditioning effect, hair washing removability (film solubility), etc. When blended into a hair treatment composition and a skin cosmetic composition, it differs in feel. That is, the cationic guar gum has a drawback that although it has little feeling of wrinkling after drying, it has a small amount of adsorption and a weak conditioning effect at the time of rinsing. In recent years, with the diversification of fashion, the use of hair colors and hair dyes has increased, resulting in significant damage to the hair. Even with cation-modified guar gum, damaged hair lacks flexibility and is stiff. There is a problem. Similarly, in the case of cation-modified locust bean gum using locust bean gum, the function is different from that of the cationic tracant gum of the present invention, and there is a problem that damaged hair lacks flexibility and shows a feeling of stiffness.

Further, Patent Document 8 uses guar gum and locust bean gum as galactomannan polysaccharides, and cation-modified cation-modified galactomannan polysaccharides that have been degraded by enzymes and the like and then reduced in molecular weight. Patent Document 9 discloses guar gum as galactomannan polysaccharides. The cation-modified galactomannan polysaccharide, which is a cation-modified galactomannan polysaccharide using a locust bean gum, which has been subjected to cation modification after hydroxyalkyl modification and further reduced in molecular weight, shows the structure of the main chain and side chain of the tracant gum of the present invention. Due to the difference and the difference in viscosity due to the presence or absence of low molecular weight, the function and setting property as a conditioning agent are not sufficient as compared with the cation-modified tracant gum of the present invention.

  On the other hand, in the case of a skin cosmetic composition, soaps and anionic surfactants are widely used, but when washing, the oily and fat components of the skin are removed more than necessary, and there is a feeling of tension against the skin. There is also a problem that arises. From the effect of eliminating such inconvenience and imparting a moist feeling, a skin cosmetic composition such as a body cleaning agent is blended with a conditioning agent such as a cationic polymer and a humectant such as glycerin. However, stickiness and sliminess may occur depending on the blending amount in the prescription.

  Further, in Patent Document 10, a shampoo composition containing a copolymer of a dialkyl diallylammonium salt and a cellulose derivative having a quaternary nitrogen-containing group introduced gives a smooth and smooth feeling to the finger as it hangs during hair washing. In addition, it has been shown to give a smooth and smooth finger passage to the hair when rinsed, and to give a good gloss to the hair when finished. Also, by blending these cationic polymers, it is possible to obtain a creamy foam quality, to eliminate the feeling of tension on the skin, and to give a moist feeling to skin cosmetic compositions such as body cleaning agents. Is also blended.

  Furthermore, as polysaccharide compounds of siliconized polysaccharide compounds, polysaccharides such as tracant gum obtained from secretions leached from the trunks of several trees of the genus Astragalus and polysaccharide compound derivatives that have been cationized can be used as derivatives of polysaccharide compounds. Although it is described in Patent Documents 11, 12, 13, and 14, specifically, the cationically modified tracant gum has a good conditioning property and, after drying, a hair wash removal property (film solubility). There is no description that the flaking phenomenon often seen is not seen, and that the setting effect can be imparted without heating.

As a thermo-gelling polysaccharide, a polysaccharide produced by cation modification of curdlan, which is a β-1,3-glucan, produced from glucose by the microorganism Agrobacterium biovar 1, is incorporated into cosmetic compositions, particularly hair treatment compositions. Patent Document 15 discloses a cation-modified polysaccharide that improves foaming and provides a conditioning effect and a setting effect, and a cosmetic composition containing the cation-modified polysaccharide, particularly a hair treatment composition. From the difference in structure and physical properties, tracant gum inevitably has a difference in function as a conditioning agent and set property. In the case of cation-modified curdlan, the set effect is exhibited when drying with heat from a dryer or the like.

  Patent Documents for blending tragacanth gum as thickeners or polymer emulsifiers in various formulation systems are described in 16, 17, 18, etc., but the cation-modified tragacanth gum is not specified.

  Patent document 19 discloses that an ester and / or ether derivative is used as a coating agent for a solid oral dosage form as a derivative of tragacanth gum, but there is no description of cation-modified tracant gum.

The problem to be solved by the present invention is to improve the adsorptivity of conventional cationic polymers to hair and skin, to improve the weak conditioning effect at the time of rinsing when blended in a hair treatment composition, and to dry It is possible to give a set effect without heating afterwards, and since it has a hair washing removability (film solubility), the flaking phenomenon often seen in commonly used set agents is not seen, and the skin cosmetic composition It is intended to provide a compound that eliminates the feeling of stickiness and bulkiness when added to the skin and improves the feeling of stickiness and sliminess.

  As a result of intensive studies to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present inventors have found that a cation-modified tracant gum in which a specific amount of a quaternary nitrogen-containing group is introduced into the tracant gum and the cationic charge amount is adjusted to a specific range is a cosmetic. It has excellent characteristics as a conditioning agent in a composition, and can be given a set effect without heating such as a dryer, and it is often used as a commonly used set agent because it has a hair washing removability (film solubility). The flaking phenomenon that can be seen was not seen, and the present invention was completed.

The neutral part is thought to have mainly α-1,5-linked structures of L-arabofuranose and D-galactose, and is derived from secretions leached from the trunks of several trees of the genus Astragalus. It is a natural water-soluble polysaccharide obtained.
This tracant gum is generally readily available under the trade name “Tracant Gum Powder S / SS” (sold by Gokyo Sangyo Co., Ltd.).

In the cation modification according to the present invention, a glycidyl trialkylammonium salt having a quaternary nitrogen-containing group or a 3-halogeno-2-hydroxypropyltrialkylammonium salt is reacted with a part of the hydroxyl group in the polysaccharide contained in tracant gum. Can be done. In this case, the reaction is carried out in a suitable solvent, preferably a hydrous alcohol, in the presence of alkali. The introduction of such a quaternary nitrogen-containing group can be performed according to a conventionally known method, and is not necessarily limited thereto. For example, after adding an alkylene oxide having 2 to 4 carbon atoms to a part of hydroxyl groups in a polysaccharide contained in tracant gum, the glycidyl trialkylammonium salt or the 3-halogeno-2-hydroxypropyltrialkylammonium salt is added. The cation-modified tracant gum of the present invention can be produced by reacting with a quaternary nitrogen-containing group. In addition, an inorganic salt, preferably sodium chloride can be added to prevent aggregation of tracant gum in the solvent during the reaction. Further, in order to prevent aggregation of tracant gum, improve dispersibility and increase the reaction rate, the alkali and inorganic salts are added to the reaction solvent and then dissolved or dispersed, then the tracant gum is added, dissolved or dispersed, and then It can also be produced by introducing a quaternary nitrogen-containing group.

In the quaternary nitrogen-containing group represented by the chemical formula (1) introduced into tracant gum in the present invention, specific examples of R ₁ and R ₂ include methyl, ethyl, and propyl, and have 1 to 24 carbon atoms.

  The cation-modified tracant gum of the present invention has a good adsorptive ability to hair and skin, and is excellent as a blending component of a cosmetic composition, can improve flexibility and feel, and is blended in a hair treatment composition. In this case, after drying, the set effect can be imparted without heating, and since it has a hair-removing property (film solubility), the flaking phenomenon often seen in commonly used set agents is not seen, and the skin When formulated in a cosmetic composition such as a body cleaning agent, it eliminates the feeling of stickiness and bulkiness on the skin and improves the feeling of stickiness and luster. Therefore, the present invention also relates to these cosmetic compositions containing the cation-modified tracant gum of the present invention.

  The cationic charge amount derived from the quaternary nitrogen-containing group of the cation-modified tracant gum of the present invention is 0.1 to 1.5 meq / g, more preferably 0.5 to 1.2 meq / g. If the amount of cationic charge is less than 0.1 meq / g, the amount adsorbed to the hair and skin will be insufficient, and even if it is actually incorporated into hair treatment compositions such as shampoos, rinses, body cleaners, and skin cosmetic compositions, it is effective. unacceptable. Further, when the charge amount exceeds 1.5 meq / g, even if a hair treatment composition and a skin cosmetic composition containing such a cation-modified tracant gum are used, deterioration of foaming and stickiness when used, A feeling of sliminess is generated, which deteriorates the feeling of use, and the finished feeling after use is also unfavorable, such as a feeling of stickiness, stickiness, or roughness.

In addition, the cation charge amount derived from the quaternary nitrogen-containing group of the cation-modified tracant gum is the equivalent number of the quaternary nitrogen-containing group represented by the chemical formula (1) contained in 1 g of the cation-modified tracant gum. Usually, the nitrogen content derived from the quaternary nitrogen-containing group can be calculated by the Kjeldahl method (former cosmetic raw material standard, general test method, nitrogen determination method, second method) and calculated from the measured values. In the tracant gum used in the present invention, Since the protein contains the nitrogen content of the protein, the value obtained by subtracting the nitrogen content derived from the tracant gum used in the present invention from the nitrogen content in the cation-modified tracant gum of the present invention determined by the Kjeldahl method is derived from the quaternary nitrogen-containing group Of nitrogen. Specifically, in the quaternary nitrogen-containing group represented by the chemical formula (1), R ₁ , R ₂ and R ₃ are methyl, X ⁻ is a chlorine ion, and n is a quaternary nitrogen containing n = 0. When the nitrogen content of the product of the present invention obtained by cationic modification of tracant gum with a group was 2.02% as a result of measurement by the Kjeldahl method, the cation charge amount of this substance can be obtained by the following formula: . The tracant gum used in the present invention usually contains about 0.37% nitrogen.

(Evaluation)
From the composition shown in the blank (F) of Table 2 as a shampoo of the formulations S1 to S7 and comparative products C1, C2 and C3 of each of the present invention products prepared in the aforementioned 5-a to 5-f. Each shampoo was used to wash 15 g of hair strands (total length: 180 mm) with 1.0 g each. Thereafter, it was rinsed in running water and left in a constant temperature and humidity (20 ° C., 40% RH) atmosphere for 24 hours to dry naturally. Thereafter, the firmness of the hair was measured with a pure bending tester (KES-FB2-S, manufactured by Kato Tech Co., Ltd.). The results are shown in Table 3. In addition, after heating the component (12) in the blank (F) of Table 2 to 60 ° C., adding a component (5) to (7) and stirring to make the blank uniform, then cooling it at 30 to 40 ° C.

About the shampoo which becomes, after washing hair with 10 testers, the softness of the hair after drying with a dryer was confirmed. The number of testers who felt that the finished hair quality was soft was evaluated according to the following criteria, and the results are shown in Table 3.
・ 8 or more testers who felt that their hair quality was soft ... ◎
・ 6-7 testers who felt that their hair quality was soft ... ○
・ 4-5 testers who felt that their hair quality was soft ... △
・ There are less than 4 testers who feel that their hair quality is soft ... ×

  From the results of Table 3, the shampoos S1 to S5 of the present invention containing cation-modified tracant gums of sample numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 obtained by cation-modifying tracant gum have a large change in bending rigidity (B value) as compared with the blank. However, the hysteresis width (2HB) is improved. Similar results were also found in Comparative Product C2 containing the cation-modified tracant gum of Sample No. 7 whose cation charge value was higher than the range of the present invention, but the bending rigidity was too large, suggesting a sense of stiffness. . On the other hand, the comparative product C1 containing the cation-modified tracant gum of Sample No. 6 and the comparative product C3 containing the unmodified tracant gum having a cation charge amount value lower than the range of the present invention was almost the same as the blank. This is because when non-modified tracant gum and cation-modified traccanth gum having a cation charge value lower than the range of the present invention are washed out and used in the product, adsorption ability based on ionicity is not obtained for the hair, and the traccanth gum is applied to the hair. It is considered that the effect was not obtained because of a small amount of adsorption. On the other hand, the product of the present invention in which tracant gum is cation-modified has adsorption ability based on ionicity to hair, so that flexibility can be obtained in a washing product such as a shampoo. As a result, it was possible to obtain effects such as an improvement in hysteresis value and a soft feel to the hair when touched by hand. Therefore, it was found that the cation-modified tragacanth gum of the present invention exerts its effect sufficiently even when it is blended into a shampoo, rinse or other wash-out product.

  Further, the cation-modified tracant gum of the present invention, cation-modified hydroxyethyl cellulose having an average added mole number of ethylene oxide of 1.8 and a nitrogen content of 1.8% by mass (Catinal HC-100; manufactured by Toho Chemical Co., Ltd.), N- Hysteresis in systems used in combination with water-soluble polymers with conditioning effects such as methacryloyloxyethyl N, N-dimethylammonium-α-methylcarboxybetaine / alkyl methacrylate copolymer (Yukaformer SM; manufactured by Mitsubishi Chemical Corporation) There was no significant difference in width (2HB), and it was confirmed that not only the effect was not lost by the combined use, but also the bending rigidity was moderately improved and the hair was firm.

Example 6 Softness to hair (part 2)
(Evaluation)
Using the shampoos of the formulations S1 to S8 of the present invention prepared in Example 5 and the shampoos of comparative products C1, C2 and C3, the softness of the cation-modified tracant gum of the present invention on damaged hair was confirmed by washing the product. did. A hair strand similar to that used in Example 5 was added to a bleaching agent in a 2: 1 mixture (w / w) of 6% H2O2 and 3% aqueous ammonia with a bath ratio of 1: 100 (hair strand weight to bleaching agent). Solution weight), and immersed for 60 minutes at 40 ° C. After washing with warm water, it was dried with a dryer. The comparatively damaged products C1 to C3 prepared according to the prescriptions S1 to S8, 5-e and 5-f of the products of the present invention prepared according to the aforementioned 5-a to 5-d were used for the damaged hair strands obtained by this bleaching treatment. Furthermore, 1.0 g of a shampoo having the composition shown in the blank (F) of Table 2 was used as a blank to wash 15 g of hair strands (total length: 180 mm). Thereafter, it was rinsed with running water, left in a constant temperature and humidity (20 ° C., 40% RH) atmosphere for 24 hours, and then naturally dried. Thereafter, the firmness of the hair was measured with a pure bending tester (KES-FB2-S, manufactured by Kato Tech Co., Ltd.). The results are shown in Table 4.

  When evaluated with damaged hair from the results in Table 4, when the shampoos S1 to S5 including the product of the present invention are compared with the blank, both the bending rigidity (B value) and the hysteresis width (2HB) are improved. Similar results are seen for comparative product C2 containing the cation-modified tracant gum of Sample No. 7, which has a higher cation charge value than the range of the present invention. On the other hand, in the comparative product C1 including the cation-modified tracant gum of sample number 6 whose cation charge value is lower than the range of the present invention, the bending rigidity is considerably improved, but the hysteresis width is such that a superior difference from the blank can be confirmed. No improvement was obtained, and the comparative product C3 containing unmodified tracant gum was almost the same as the comparative product C1. Furthermore, since the difference between the bending rigidity and the hysteresis width from the blank is larger than that in the case of the unbleached untreated healthy hair of Example 5, the usefulness of the product of the present invention on the damaged hair was confirmed. It was.

  Further, the cation-modified tracant gum of the present invention, cation-modified hydroxyethyl cellulose having an average added mole number of ethylene oxide of 1.8 and a nitrogen content of 1.8% by mass (Catinal HC-100; manufactured by Toho Chemical Co., Ltd.), N- Hysteresis in systems used in combination with water-soluble polymers with conditioning effects such as methacryloyloxyethyl N, N-dimethylammonium-α-methylcarboxybetaine / alkyl methacrylate copolymer (Yukaformer SM; manufactured by Mitsubishi Chemical Corporation) It was confirmed that there was no difference in width (2HB), and the effect was not lost even when used in combination, but the bending rigidity was moderately improved and the hair was firm.

  Hereinafter, the conditioning effect and flexibility and setting properties obtained by the cation-modified tracant gum were further confirmed in each of the cosmetic compositions having different dosage forms.

Comparative Example 1
For each shampoo prepared in 7-f, 7-g and 7-h, comparative products 1 to 5, performance evaluation was carried out in the same manner as in Example 8, and the results are shown in Table 7.

    From the results of Table 7, the cation-modified tracant gum of the present invention having a cation charge amount of 0.1-1.5 meq / g of the cation-modified tracant gum is excellent in conditioning effect when used in shampoos, and is used in washing products such as shampoos. Also, the strength of the stiffness due to the set effect was confirmed.

In addition, the performance of the shampoo containing the product of the present invention is equal to or better after use than the comparative product 5 containing only cation-modified hydroxyethyl cellulose (Catinal HC-100), which is conventionally used as a conditioning agent. However, after use, the strength of the firmness due to the setting property (film-forming property) of the cation-modified tracant gum, which is not found in conventional conditioning agents, was obtained. In addition, by using a cationic water-soluble polymer (Kachinal HC-100, Merquat 550) and / or an amphoteric water-soluble polymer (Yukaformer SM) in combination, the performance of the cation-modified tracant gum of the present invention can be obtained. It was confirmed that the conditioning effect was improved without loss.

Further, the performance of the shampoo containing the product of the present invention is equivalent to or better than that of the comparative product 5 containing a cationic polymer (cation-modified hydroxyethyl cellulose: kachinal HC-100) that has been used as a conditioning agent. Yes, after use, the moist feeling, flexibility, and setability of the cation-modified tracant gum of the present invention, which are not found in conventional conditioning agents, were obtained. In addition, by using a cationic water-soluble polymer (Kachinal HC-100, Merquat 550) and / or an amphoteric water-soluble polymer (Yukaformer SM) in combination, the performance of the cation-modified tracant gum of the present invention is impaired. It was confirmed that the conditioning effect and setability were improved.

Example 9
(Evaluation)
Set effect (1)
The setting effect on the hair of the cation-modified tracant gum was confirmed by the following method.
1) Immerse the hair bundle of 30cm, 2g of human hair manufactured by Beaulux Co., Ltd. (100% black base / BS-B3A) in the solution for 30 seconds, and remove excess liquid with N0.2 filter paper.
2) After arranging the hair bundle with a comb, wrap it around a curler with an outer diameter of 2 cm.
3) After drying for 30 minutes with warm air at 60 ° C, remove the hair bundle from the curler. 4) Place in a constant temperature and humidity chamber at 30 ° C and 90% RH and measure the curl length. Calculate from the following formula.
Holding power = (length before treatment−length over time) / (length before treatment−initial length)
The evaluation results are shown in Table 8.

表８の数値が大きい程セット性を有する事を意味する。

It means that it has set property, so that the numerical value of Table 8 is large.

From the results shown in Table 8, it was confirmed that Sample No. 2 (charge amount 1.23 meq / g) in Example 1 has good curl retention. It was confirmed that Sample No. 3 in Example 1 having a charge amount of 1.66 meq / g had better curl retention than blank, but smaller in curl retention than Sample No. 2. The lower the cationic charge amount, the better the setability, but as is clear from the evaluation result of the performance of the hair shampoo of Example 7 (Table 7), the conditioning effect becomes worse as the charge amount becomes higher. Therefore, it is possible to control the setting property and the conditioning effect by changing the cation charge amount of the cation-modified tragacanth gum of the present invention.
