Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Industrial Application Field] The present invention relates to a hypoallergenic solid detergent, and more particularly to a hypoallergenic solid detergent prepared by blending a specific compound into a soap base.

[Conventional technology]

Conventionally, hypoallergenic solid detergents include soap-based detergents, such as superfat soaps made by adding an excess of saturated fatty acids after neutralizing or drying the soap, and triethanolamine salts of fatty acids. Salts with low pH are known. In addition, synthetic surfactants are used in combination with soap, such as near-neutral anionic surfactants such as sodium lauryl sulfate, and weakly acidic surfactants such as sodium N-acylglutamate. What has been done is known.

These hypoallergenic solid detergents are discussed in detail in, for example, ``Recent Hypoallergenic Soaps'' (Fragrance Journal, Vol. 47, p. 47, 1981).

[Problem to be solved by the invention]

However, these conventional hypoallergenic solid detergents are still not fully satisfactory in terms of hypoallergenicity. In particular, in the case of superfat soap, the pH is still high, although the problems such as free alkali are alleviated, and similarly, in the case of triethanolamine salts of fatty acids, the pH is lower than that of alkaline earth salts of fatty acids, but is still 9. In addition, anionic surfactants such as sodium lauryl sulfate have extremely strong cleaning power, so there is a risk that the sebum film will be washed away excessively.

For this reason, conventional hypoallergenic solid detergents may feel slimy during use, or leave a feeling of stiffness or dryness after drying. The problem was that it was difficult to obtain a sufficient amount of

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In view of the above-mentioned conventional circumstances, an object of the present invention is to provide an improved, hypoallergenic solid detergent that can provide a very smooth feel during or after use.

[Means to solve the problem]

In order to achieve the above object, the inventors of the present invention have conducted intensive studies and found that by blending a specific amount of a specific compound into a soap base, the detergent has excellent foaming properties and moderate cleaning properties. In addition to its properties, it also has good quality stability and formability, without the rancidity seen in conventional superfat soaps or the strength problems seen with sodium N-acylglutamate. In addition to being able to obtain a solid cleaning agent,
The present invention was completed based on the knowledge that this cleaning agent has improved hypoallergenicity compared to conventional cleaning agents, and therefore provides a very smooth feel during and after use. reached.

That is, the present invention applies the following general formula to 100 parts by weight of the soap base; The present invention relates to a hypoallergenic solid detergent, characterized in that it contains 15 to 70 parts by weight of a compound represented by the formula (n is 1 to 10).

[Structure and operation of the invention]

The soap base used in the present invention includes animal and vegetable fats and oils such as beef tallow, lard, coconut oil, palm oil, palm kernel oil, and soybean oil, or their mixed fatty acids and simple fatty acids.
Obtained by conventional saponification and neutralization of various oils and fats or fatty acids conventionally known as raw materials for soap bases,
Soaps made of various salts such as alkali metal salts, ammonium salts, and lower alkanolamine salts are widely included. Among these, soaps made of alkali metal salts such as sodium salts and potassium salts are particularly preferred.

In the present invention, the compound represented by the above general formula to be blended into the soap base as described above is a salt of a sulfuric ester of fatty acid monoethanolamide or its ethylene oxide adduct; It can be obtained by reacting with an amine in a conventional manner to obtain fatty acid monoethanolamide, which may be sulfonated with chlorosulfonic acid or the like after adding ethylene oxide as it is or after addition of ethylene oxide, and then neutralized with an alkali.

In the above general formula, R representing an alkyl group or an alkenyl group preferably has 4 to 3 carbon atoms, particularly preferably 10 to 22 carbon atoms, and the number of moles of ethylene oxide to be added is according to the general formula. It is preferable that n is in a range of 1 to 10. Outside these ranges, it becomes difficult to obtain the effects of the present invention.

In addition, M in the So-1M group is a cation derived from an alkali metal, ammonia, or a lower amine, that is, sodium, potassium, NH (ammonium).
, lower alkanol ammonium, etc.

Specific examples of compounds represented by such general formulas include:
For example, sulfate ester sodium salt of coconut oil fatty acid monoethanolamide, lauric acid monoethanolamide,
Potassium sulfate ester of ethylene oxide (3) adduct, 6Aflt ester triethanolammonium salt of ethylene oxide (5) adduct of oleic acid monoethanolamide, sulfate ester of ethylene oxy F (10) adduct of tallow fatty acid monoethanolamide Examples include ammonium salts. Here, the numbers in parentheses indicate the number of moles of ethylene oxide added, but each of the above numbers is just an example, and it goes without saying that any number of moles added within the above range can be used. do not have.

In the present invention, the compounding amount of the compound represented by the above general formula is 15 to 100 parts by weight per 100 parts by weight of the soap base (dry soap).
It is 70 parts by weight, particularly preferably 30 to 70 parts by weight.

If this amount is less than 15 parts by weight, no hypoallergenic effect will be obtained, and if it exceeds 70 parts by weight, problems will arise in formability.

The hypoallergenic solid detergent of the present invention can be produced by uniformly mixing a soap base with a compound represented by the above general formula in the above ratio, and then extruding the mixture in a conventional manner.

At that time, the timing of addition of the above compound is not particularly limited, and it may be added to neat soap after neutralization, or may be added to soap chips after drying.

In the present invention, in order to uniformly mix the above-mentioned compound into the soap base, an appropriate surfactant may be used as necessary. This surfactant includes, for example, Nishibe:
"Surfactant Handbook" (Published by Sangyo Tosho Co., Ltd.), Soft Giken Publishing Department: "Elucidation of the Functional Effects of New Surfactants and the Development and Practical Comprehensive Technical Data Collection of Applied Products" (Management Development Center Publishing Department) A wide variety of known surfactants are included, such as those described in .

In addition, the hypoallergenic solid detergent of the present invention can contain various polymeric substances in order to improve its shapeability, and may further contain chelating agents such as EDTA, humectants such as hyaluronic acid, and fragrances. Various additives such as dyes and the like added to ordinary soaps may also be included.

〔Effect of the invention〕

As described above, in the present invention, by blending a specific amount of a specific compound into a soap base, it not only satisfies basic properties such as foaming properties, appropriate detergency, and formability, but also improves them. This makes it possible to obtain an unprecedented solid detergent that is hypoallergenic and gives a very smooth feel during and after use, making it suitable for people with sensitive skin, people with strong allergies, and people with sensitive skin. It is particularly suitable for people with weakened skin due to aging.
