DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Industrial field of application] The present invention relates to a skin cleansing / cleaning material, and more specifically, to remove excrement remaining around the anus after defecation and damage to the skin due to friction. , Or a material for cleaning and cleaning the skin around the anus that reduces pain during blowout and keeps the area around the anus clean to prevent hemorrhoids, rashes, itch and other exacerbation of the symptoms around the anus. Regarding

[Conventional technology]

For cleaning and cleaning the anus after defecation, a hot water washer is also used in some cases, but it has not come into widespread use because of high equipment cost, and toilet paper is generally used.

However, the skin around the anus has fine folds, wrinkles, and hairs, and feces can get into these minute areas, making it difficult to wipe them clean with toilet paper. Furthermore, the residual feces that have adhered are dried, solidified, and difficult to remove.

On the other hand, about 70% of commonly used toilet paper and dust paper is recycled paper, which is physically hard and is often rubbed to soften it when used, but still This will cause minute abrasions on the skin. In addition, the feces remaining on the skin become a breeding source of bacteria, and due to the generated decomposition products,
Damaged skin may be aggravated and it may cause itching, rashes and sores around the anus.

In this way, it is difficult to sufficiently clean the anus using toilet paper, and the friction during use stimulates the skin around the anus, so if there is a disease around the anus such as hemorrhoids, symptoms Cause deterioration of.

In order to solve such a problem, it has been proposed to apply a cleaning agent to the toilet paper before using it, before using it. For this, a cleaning agent around the anus mainly composed of a specific oil component (Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 59-225111),
A cleaning agent prepared by mixing water-soluble silicone and alcohol in water (JP-A-62-242611), a water-soluble aerosol-type cleaning agent having a pH of 5 to 9 and containing a water-soluble silicone and a phosphate-based pH buffer agent (JP-A-1-242 No. 265019) and the like.

Further, a method for producing a support for treating and preventing hemorrhoids (Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 49-118)
828), a skin cleansing product having a low density wipe area treated with a lipophilic cleansing softener (JP-A-53-120981).
No.), water-washable cleaning paper obtained by impregnating hydrolyzed paper with an oil-based raw material for cosmetics and a surfactant (JP-A-59-144426), a cleaning agent around the anus (JP-A-60-193424), Hemorrhoidal skin cleansing paper products (Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 62-87117) and wipes for excrement (Jpn. Pat. No. 1-18071) have been proposed.

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention]

However, when using toilet paper, the cleaning and cleaning agent applied to the toilet paper has a drawback that it is troublesome because it requires an additional operation in addition to the usual practice of simply wiping off. .

Further, the conventional wiping material obtained by impregnating an oily raw material with hydrolyzed paper has not always been sufficient in the wiping effect.

[Means for Solving the Problems]

The present inventors, as a result of earnest research to solve such problems, by impregnating a water-decomposable paper containing eucalyptus pulp with an oily component, a high cleaning effect,
Furthermore, they have found that a skin cleansing and wiping material that requires no application operation at the time of use can be obtained and completed the present invention.

That is, the present invention is characterized in that a water-decomposable paper containing eucalyptus pulp is impregnated with an oily component.
It provides a cleaning material.

The water-decomposable paper used in the skin cleansing and wiping material of the present invention means a sheet-like material which is essentially soluble or dispersible in water. In the present invention, it is an essential condition to contain eucalyptus pulp as the pulp constituting the water-decomposable paper. Eucalyptus pulp is a collection of plant fibers extracted from the Eucalyptus tree, an evergreen tattoo tree of the genus Astragalus, native to Australia. Eucalyptus pulp is preferably contained in the water-decomposable paper in an amount of 10 to 80%. If it is 10% or less, the effect of the present invention is not sufficient, and if it is 80% or more, the paper strength is low, which causes a problem in use.

The water-degradable paper preferably has a basis weight of 10 to 30 g / m ^{2, and} may be embossed or the like.

Examples of the oily component to be impregnated in the water-decomposable paper used in the present invention include vegetable oil, animal oil, synthetic oil, silicone oil and the like. Specifically, as vegetable oil, olive oil,
Almond oil, jojoba oil, peanut oil, castor oil, coconut oil, palm oil, safflower oil, sunflower oil, cottonseed oil, hydrogenated coconut oil, hydrogenated palm oil and the like can be mentioned. Animal oils include lanolin, turtle oil, beeswax. , Squalene, squalane, pristane and the like. Examples of synthetic oils include liquid paraffin, fatty acid triglycerides such as glycerin tri-2-ethylhexanoate, and higher alcohols. Among these oils, jojoba oil, squalane, or glycerin tri-2-ethylhexanoate are particularly preferable from the viewpoint of the protective effect and the feeling of use. Examples of the silicone oil include methyl polysiloxane, methylphenyl polysiloxane, dimethyl polysiloxane polyethylene glycol copolymer, dimethyl polysiloxane polypropylene glycol copolymer, cyclic dimethyl siloxane, dimethyl trimethyl polysiloxane, amino silicone and the like. Above all, linear or cyclic dimethyl silicone having a viscosity of 30 centistokes or less is preferable.

These oily components may be used alone or in combination of two or more, and 40 to 250% by weight (hereinafter simply referred to as "%") based on the water-decomposable paper.
It is preferable to impregnate it.

The skin cleansing and wiping material of the present invention may contain other components, if necessary, in addition to the above components.

Other components contained in the skin cleansing and wiping material of the present invention include glycerin fatty acid ester, propylene glycol fatty acid ester, sorbitan fatty acid ester, sucrose fatty acid ester, alkyl glyceryl ether, polyoxyethylene alkyl ether, poly Nonionic surfactants such as oxyethylene alkyl phenyl ether, polyoxyethylene polyoxypropylene ether, polyoxyethylene hydrogenated castor oil and the like can be mentioned. Furthermore, propylene glycol, ethylene glycol, polyethylene glycol, 1,3-butylene glycol, water-soluble solvents such as polyhydric alcohols such as glycerin and water, bactericides, antiphlogistics, antioxidants, fragrances, dyes, etc. Is also good.

In order to produce the skin cleansing and wiping material of the present invention, for example, an oily component and other components are mixed by a conventional method, and this is impregnated by spraying or immersing it in water-degradable paper containing eucalyptus pulp. Good.
