2. Description of the Related Art Some aerosol products use a liquefied gas and a compressed gas as a propellant.
As the liquefied gas, propane, butane, isobutane, dimethyl ether, etc. are used alone or as a mixture, and although the injection characteristics are good, they are all flammable.
In the manufacturing process, it is necessary to have appropriate equipment and management system that handles flammable high-pressure gas, and as a precaution for using the product, the product is marked with flammability and fire caution, and sufficient caution should be taken for transportation and storage. is necessary. As the compressed gas, carbon dioxide, nitrogen, oxygen, air, helium, argon or the like is used as a propellant. In this case, unlike the case of liquefied gas, there is a drawback of pressure drop. That is, when carbon dioxide is used as the compressed gas and a water-soluble base is used, carbon dioxide is a constant amount of carbon dioxide in the water-soluble base under a constant pressure according to Henry's law of gas dissolution. Dissolve in. Due to this dissolved gas, the initial injection state of the product is good, but the injection state deteriorates from the middle stage to the final stage. This is because as the content liquid decreases, the volume of the gas portion in the container increases, the internal pressure of the container decreases according to Boyle's law, and as the pressure decreases, carbon dioxide gas evaporates and drops from the water-soluble base. Since a part of the pressure is replenished, the amount of dissolved gas in the water-soluble base is reduced as a result, and the injection state is deteriorated in combination with the pressure drop.

When nitrogen gas is used as the compressed gas, unlike carbon dioxide gas, the amount of gas dissolved in the liquid is small.
For example, the dissolved amount of water of the nitrogen gas is 20 ° C., it was 0.016 ml / MLH 2 O at 1 atm, dissolved amount of water of carbon dioxide 20 ° C., is 0.88 ml / MLH 2 O at 1 atm. Therefore, when filling the water-soluble base and pressurizing only with nitrogen gas to make a product, the product is in a poor injection state, as can be judged from the gas insolubility in the liquid, and the valve structure to improve this is The button structure was devised to require a fine liquid passage and a spray mechanism. For this reason, it is costly and there is an instability of the spray state caused by the fine structure. At the same time, since it behaves in accordance with Boyle's law as an advantage of the insoluble compressed gas, it is easy to fill the gas and accurately predicts the decrease in pressure with the consumption of the content liquid when designing. I was able to do something.

As described above, by using the soluble compressed gas and / or the insoluble compressed gas, which are safer than the liquefied gas, as a propellant for an aerosol product, two compressed gas components are prepared by a conventional method. In the filling process, depending on the pressure filling method, the filling is performed using two pressure filling heads, one for every one of the two components, that is, a total of two pressure filling heads. When the soluble compressed gas and the insoluble compressed gas are combined, the soluble compressed gas is first filled and then the insoluble compressed gas is filled. At the time of filling, the filling pressure is set as high as possible while considering the pressure resistance of the can. This is of course to increase the filling speed. Normally, the pressure is set to about 15 to 20 kg / cm 2 G, so that the pressure resistance of the can is filled to the limit, and the liquid in the can is absorbed so as to be filled. In order to accelerate the gas absorption depending on the content liquid, technologies such as vibrating the can and devising the mechanism of the aerosol valve to accelerate the gas passage speed have been introduced. At the same time, it takes a considerable amount of time until the equilibrium pressure is reached by absorbing carbon dioxide into the content liquid. It is necessary to take a few minutes of idle time before pressure-filling carbon dioxide gas at least and then filling nitrogen gas. This means that it is not possible to fill the two components of compressed gas in a continuous process in a series of filling devices. It is uneconomical to construct a line that fills the compressed gas of the second component with an idle time of several minutes, because it costs a lot in terms of location and investment. As another method, it is possible to mix two components of compressed gas in advance and pressurize, but in the case of carbon dioxide gas and nitrogen gas, physicochemical properties Is. This causes problems in the filling process. That is, during filling, there is a depressurization step from the cylinder in which the mixed gas is stored as a raw material to the filling device via the pipe, the pressure reducing valve, and the like. At this time, there is a disadvantage that the carbon dioxide gas is liquefied by cooling due to the adiabatic expansion and the component ratio of the mixed gas is changed. Further, the quality control of the mixed gas of the compressed gas as the raw material gas is complicated and difficult, and the control of the gas amount of the filled aerosol product becomes very difficult. More than,
This is a big problem when filling two components as compressed gas by the conventional method.

In the above pressure generation step, when a predetermined amount of NaHCO 3 is dissolved in a stock solution such as an aqueous solution containing various active ingredients, and when a predetermined amount of citric acid is added thereto, the citric acid is directly dissolved in the solution. If the liquid is thrown into the container, a reaction immediately occurs, a foaming phenomenon occurs, and the content liquid overflows from the mouth of the container, so that the valve cannot be crimped. Therefore, it is preferable to wrap a certain amount of citric acid with a water-soluble resin-Ex polyvinyl alcohol film, water-soluble fiber, etc., and add it in the form of a capsule. As a method to make capsules,
A certain amount of tablets is compressed and the outer periphery is coated with a water-soluble resin so that spherical porous powder (silica) is infiltrated. If necessary, coat the outer periphery, put in a hemispherical hollow capsule molded in a water-soluble range, and bond two pieces together. In addition, it is important to adjust the pH of the aqueous solution to near neutral before dissolving carbonate or hydrogen carbonate in an aqueous solution containing various active ingredients in order to properly manage the amount of carbon dioxide gas generated. In the present invention, the pH is 5 to 8, preferably pH 6.0.
It is 7.9. As a pH adjusting method, an organic acid or an inorganic acid (eg, citric acid, tartaric acid, hydrochloric acid, etc.) is used as an adjusting agent on the acidic side, while triethanolamine, caustic soda, or caustic potassium is used as an adjusting agent on the alkaline side. , Diethanolamine, aqueous ammonia, borax, monoethanolamine, etc. are used.

As described above, a soluble compressed gas can be generated in the aerosol container. In the present invention, an insoluble compressed gas is filled in the aerosol container. This is because when only the soluble compressed gas is the propellant, the pressure in the can decreases as the space volume increases as the aerosol content is consumed, and at the same time, the gas dissolved in the content Partly evaporates. As a result, the state at the time of spraying (for example, spray state, spray pattern,
The state of bubbles and jetting force) change to the worse. When the insoluble compressed gas is filled, the soluble compressed gas can be prevented from being re-evaporated in the aerosol container, the drop in the can internal pressure can be prevented, and the state at the time of injection can be maintained in a good state. However, there are cases where the product can be used relatively well until the end by injection using only carbon dioxide. In that case, it is possible to use the generation of carbon dioxide gas according to the present invention to commercialize the product and to use no insoluble compressed gas. However, theoretically, it is considered preferable to use an insoluble compressed gas together. It is economical to use only carbon dioxide.

Nitrogen gas is a typical example of the insoluble compressed gas. The nitrogen gas can be filled by the pressure filling method or the under cup method which is conventionally used in the industry. However, since there is a pressure for generating carbon dioxide gas in the step of filling first, the filling pressure of nitrogen gas is a pressure that matches the final set pressure and the carbon dioxide gas pressure. According to the experiment, it can be considered that [nitrogen filling setting pressure] = [final setting pressure] − [carbon dioxide gas pressure]. That is, the pressure of the aerosol product is 25 ° C, 7
When you want to kg / cm 2, when the pressure of carbon dioxide filled in the manner described Matasaki is 5 kg / cm 2 [a nitrogen-filled set pressure] = [7] - [5] = 2 kg / cm 2 ( at
25 ℃) is good. As a practical matter, the carbon dioxide gas previously filled was 5 kg.
Filling with nitrogen after showing / cm 2 is problematic in terms of pressure and is also disadvantageous in terms of management, so immediately after the end of the injection of the two components for carbon dioxide generation and the end of the sealing work It is filled with nitrogen gas, and this is also the reason for the action and effect described later. Here, “immediately after the sealing work is completed” means immediately after the sealing work is completed, and specifically, 0 seconds to
Shows between 5 seconds.

Next, the carbon dioxide gas generation process will be described in detail. The generation of carbon dioxide gas is as shown in the above chemical reaction formula [I]. Similar to the experiment described above, the carbon dioxide gas generation test was performed using the following size materials. That is, the capacity of the container was 156 ml, the aqueous solution was 90 ml, the headspace was 66 ml, and the amounts of NaHCO 3 and citric acid were calculated according to the amount calculation of the reaction formula and varied to obtain the graph shown in FIG. 1.
That is, the pressure generation in the can can be well controlled by controlling the amounts of NaHCO 3 and citric acid. When carbon dioxide is pressure-filled by the conventional method, carbon dioxide absorption coefficient of the content liquid, absorption rate, filling speed, filling pressure, can pressure resistance, aerosol valve mechanism, content liquid temperature,
In consideration of various factors such as carbon dioxide temperature, it is necessary to adjust the conditions for filling each time. According to the present invention, the addition of NaHCO 3 is (a) dissolved in an aqueous solution at a certain percentage (a) preliminarily weighed to form a water-soluble capsule (c) liquid filling as an aqueous solution of a certain concentration, etc. Among them, an appropriate method can be adopted, and for citric acid, the same methods as (a), (b) and (c) can be adopted, and a rational and simple process can be selected by combining these. By performing (a), it can be performed as a batch work. That is, an aqueous solution or the like containing the active ingredient may be stored in a large tank, and predetermined NaHCO 3 may be added to this and mixed and stirred. However, this work may cause problems such as shortening the storage period of the aqueous solution, so it is necessary to investigate in advance. Since the work of (a) is an adding work at the time of filling, it is easy to automate. However, the problem of long-term storage of capsules (alteration,
Moisture absorption). (C) is rational because it can be carried out as a batch work, but liquid quantity control during filling work must be strictly performed. It is preferable that NaHCO 3 is used by the method (a), and citric acid is encapsulated by the method (a). If the reverse is performed, it is not impossible, but it is not preferable as a process. That is, when citric acid is placed in an aqueous solution [method (a)] and filled in a can, and NaHCO 3 is added thereto (method (a)], normal pressure is generated, but citric acid is added. The pH of the aqueous solution is temporarily lowered to about 3 and there is concern about the effect of this on the entire aqueous solution. However, in this case, p of the finished product by adding NaHCO 3
H is at 6.7 and is normal.

Next, the step of filling the insoluble compressed gas will be described in detail. As for the step of filling the insoluble compressed gas, for example, nitrogen gas, it can be filled by the conventional pressure filling method as described above. However, it is generally necessary to consider various factors such as the pressure inside the can, the filling speed, the filling pressure, the pressure resistance of the can, the aerosol valve mechanism, and the gas temperature, and it is difficult to fill carbon dioxide next to carbon dioxide. However, according to the present invention, nitrogen gas filling is performed immediately after charging the components for generating carbon dioxide gas and sealing the container. Therefore, the pressure in the can is close to the atmospheric pressure, and the pressure in the can depending on the nitrogen component is Since the setting can be relatively low pressure, the filling work is stable and easy. As the compression insoluble gas used in the present invention,
Nitrogen, helium, argon, neon, oxygen can be used. The internal pressure of the aerosol container is 8 kg / at a temperature of 35 ° C according to the general high pressure gas safety regulation, Article 12 and 27, and the safety regulations of industrial articles, Article 8 and 67.
It is regulated to be less than or equal to cm 2 , and it is necessary to comply with it. Preferably in order to maintain the injection state of the product well for it seems better to design at normal temperature to 3.5kg / cm 2 ~7.8kg / cm 2 .

The compressed gas of the present invention and those other than the present invention were comparatively tested and evaluated below. (Comparative Experiment) FIG. 2 shows an AL container (full volume 156 ml), purified water 90 ml, NaHCO 3 3 g and citric acid 2.5 g as shown in the following (a) to (c), and left for 1 day to consume the contents.

According to this pressured product (c) is Kan'nai pressure after 1 day after filling has dropped from 5 kg / cm 2 to 4.3 kg / cm 2. If the content liquid exceeds 20%, the pressure drops drastically. In comparison, the reaction product (a) does not change in pressure even after 1 day. This is probably because the carbon dioxide gas was formed by reacting in a homogeneous system of the content liquid, and the gas was sufficiently saturated from the beginning. Also, the pressure drop due to the decrease of the content liquid is substantially uniform. The two-component product (a) was pressurized with nitrogen immediately after sealing the container, so that the initial pressure was 7.3 kg / cm 2 even after 1 day. In this case, the internal pressure is 2 kg even if the liquid in the container becomes zero.
/ cm 2 or more, and the normal injection ability was maintained. The present invention proposes a pressurizing method with two components, but it is considered that a product containing only carbon dioxide gas such as the product (a) according to the present experiment can be implemented as a part of the present invention.

Next, when the same test products as those in (a), (b) and (c) above are made and the internal volume is sprayed, the sprayed liquid is collected in a beaker and evaporated from there. The amount of evaporation was measured. The results are shown in [Fig. 3]. It can be inferred that this evaporation amount (percentage) is a number proportional to the amount of carbon dioxide gas contained in the content liquid. According to this result, (a) product ... The evaporation rate of carbon dioxide is almost constant and stable. (B) Product: The evaporation rate is relatively stable. (C) Product: The evaporation rate is large initially, and as the content liquid decreases, the evaporation rate decreases. Also, as shown in the bottom of the table, the spray condition is (a) product ... good spray condition until the end (ii) product ... good spray condition up to about 10% remaining amount (c) product ... about 30% remaining amount As mentioned above, the propellants of aerosol products are currently LPG and D.

That is, careful attention and control are required at each stage of manufacturing equipment, manufacturing control, distribution, storage, and consumption. According to the present invention, since it uses a non-combustible, safe and harmless compressed gas (for example, nitrogen gas, carbon dioxide gas) as a component, it becomes much safer. At the same time, water-soluble stock solutions, emulsion solutions, etc. are the main stock solutions, so they can be comprehensively manufactured as non-combustible products.

Since carbon dioxide has a bacteriostatic action, it is said that the one pressurized with this is free from microbial contamination. At the same time, the pH of the aqueous liquid changes depending on the pressure applied. That is, it is said that the pH of water becomes 4 or less at a pressure of 3.5 kg / cm 2 or more. It is not good for the quality of the product that the undiluted aqueous solution of the aerosol undergoes an abnormal drop in pH due to carbon dioxide. For this reason, pressurization due to carbon dioxide should be kept low (example: 2
kg / cm 2 ) This plan is optimal for reducing the drop in pH and for making nitrogen gas play the role of a propellant for injection. As described above, filling the two components of the compressed gas (soluble and insoluble) requires a large space in the conventional method and is economically disadvantageous because the amount of investment is large. According to the present invention, very economical, safe and accurate production is possible. Further, when only one component of carbon dioxide gas is required, high pressure gas manufacturing equipment, piping, etc. are not required, which enables simple, safe and economical production.

EFFECTS OF THE INVENTION The present invention has the following effects as will be understood from what has been described in the above embodiments. An aqueous solution, an emulsion solution, or an aqueous alcohol solution containing various active ingredients is filled with hydrogen carbonate and an organic acid or an inorganic acid, and at the same time, the insoluble compressed gas is filled under pressure. It is possible to rationally produce an aerosol product having two components of soluble compressed gas. An aerosol product having such two components could not be mass-produced by a conventional production method. The compressed gas pressurized aerosol product proposed in the present invention was developed under a novel idea that combines the advantages of a soluble compressed gas with the advantages of an insoluble compressed gas. Soluble compressed gas has the property of dissolving in the content liquid, and when sprayed from an aerosol container, the melted gas body expands rapidly and is subdivided to subdivide the content at the same time, showing a good atomized state. As the gas is injected and decreases, the pressure decreases with the increase of the space (head space), and the gas infiltrated in the liquid evaporates to compensate for this.
As a result, the amount of gas in the liquid is reduced and the atomized state tends to deteriorate. On the other hand, since the insoluble compressed gas does not dissolve in the content liquid, there is no expansion or subdivision effect at the time of injection, but since it is not injected outside the container with the liquid when the content liquid is injected, the amount of gas initially filled It continues to work effectively as a propellant without losing any. In the present invention, by combining the above two components, the evaporation of the soluble compressed gas to the head space is suppressed to maintain a good effect at the time of injection, and at the same time, the characteristic of the insoluble gas is utilized to reduce the pressure in the can. Properly maintaining the effect of subdividing the jetting liquid on the basis of pressure. Depending on the properties of the product, the insoluble compressed gas may be unnecessary, and in that case, the product can be produced only by the carbon dioxide gas generated by the present invention. Also, in the case of filling only with carbon dioxide, when using the conventional pressure filling method, 1) the problem of reliquefaction in the pipe for feeding carbon dioxide, 2) filling the carbon dioxide with a certain constant pressure (for example, 20 kg).
/ Cm 2 ) or more, and it is necessary to shake the aerosol can for a certain period of time (for example, 20 to 30) before gas saturation.
However, according to the present invention, this problem can be solved.
