Description

[0001] Oil-in-water type organogel composition [0002]

The present invention relates to an organogel composition in the form of an oil-in-water type oil. More specifically, the present invention relates to an organogel composition which is capable of effectively collecting an oily portion on a water surface without using an emulsifier, thereby providing a stable property and feeling of use, Oil-in-water type organogel composition.

The gel refers to a structure in which a fluid such as an organic solvent or water is contained in a three-dimensional mesh structure formed by a substance having a gel-forming ability. An organogel when the fluid is an organic solvent is referred to as an organogel, (hydrogel). Organogels are used to control fluidity in the fields of cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, pesticides, foods, adhesives, paints, and resins.

Packs have long been used as one of the basic cosmetics such as skins, lotions and creams. Unlike ordinary skins, lotions and creams, the packs can be moistened for a long time by supplying and maintaining moisture and / or oil for a long time It is intended to be used for the purpose of allowing the skin to be beautifully cleaned. The pack can be classified into three types: a type in which the nonwoven fabric is filled with an essence liquid to adhere to the skin, a type in which the skin is evenly applied and then washed or peeled off, and a solid hydrogel type mask pack using a gelling agent And may further include a moisturizing agent such as an oil or a polyhydric alcohol according to the taste of the consumer according to each classification.

Of these pack products, a solid hydrogel type mask pack currently used in various fields has many difficulties in supplying oil because it is composed of water components (Korean Patent Laid-Open No. 2000-0061633 , 1996-0030924). Although there is a solid organ gel type mask pack in which oil is added to a solid gel type mask pack, in order to produce such a mask pack, a general emulsifier such as sorbitan stearate is used as a raw material However, when such an emulsifier is added, it is harmful to the skin and causes irritation and trouble.

In addition, since an ordinary emulsifier is generally thermodynamically unstable, an organogel composition containing an emulsifier is separated from the upper portion and the upper portion of the emulsion over time. This problem poses the additional cost of maintaining the product containing the organogel composition in a stable state during the distribution and use periods.

Accordingly, the inventors of the present invention have made intensive studies to develop an organogel composition capable of effectively delivering a useful ingredient to the skin without causing skin troubles. As a result, it is possible to effectively capture the oily part without using an emulsifier, The inventors have found an organogel composition which can provide a feeling of use and which does not cause skin irritation when applied to skin, thereby completing the present invention.

Korean Patent Publication No. 2000-0061633 Korean Patent Publication No. 1996-0030924

Accordingly, it is an object of the present invention to provide an organogel composition of oil-in-water type that does not cause skin troubles by forming a gel snare using hydrocolloid and forming a solids which collects an oily portion in the snare.

According to the above object, the present invention provides an organogel composition in the oil-in-water form containing a hydrocolloid.

According to one embodiment of the present invention, the hydrocolloid may be one selected from the group consisting of algin, xanthan, guar gum, gellan, glucomannan, pluronic and agar, Carrageenan and Locust Bean Gum, ≪ / RTI >

According to one embodiment of the present invention, the hydrocolloid may be a mixture of an algin, a carrageenan and a locust bean gum.

According to one embodiment of the present invention, the organogel composition comprises 0.1 to 1.0% by weight, based on the total weight, of one selected from the group consisting of algin, xanthan, guar gum, gellan, glucomannan, pluronic and agar, 0.5 to 3.0% by weight based on the total weight and 1.0 to 2.5% by weight based on the total weight of the locust bean gum.

According to an embodiment of the present invention, the organogel composition may include 0.05 to 20.0% by weight of the total weight of the emulsion, and 80.0 to 99.95% by weight of the emulsion.

In addition, according to an embodiment of the present invention, the oil phase portion includes an oil component, and the oil component may include caprylic / capric triglyceride, butyleneglycol dicaprylate / dicaprate, triethylhexanoin, cetyl Ethyl hexanoate, isopropyl myristate, and octyldodecanol.

According to an embodiment of the present invention, the organogel composition may further comprise at least one selected additive selected from the group consisting of a preservative, a color powder, a flavor, a pH adjusting agent, and a thickening agent.

The organogel composition according to the present invention is capable of effectively capturing the oily part on the water surface by including the hydrocolloid so that it can provide stable property and feeling without using an emulsifier and can prevent the skin trouble due to the emulsifier It can be widely used for development of various cosmetics such as a mask pack and the like.

Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail.

The organophilic composition of the present invention is characterized by containing hydrocolloid.

The hydrocolloid of the present invention plays a role in controlling the physical properties of the organogel composition, such as the rate of gelation of the organogel composition and the rate, hardness, degree of hydration and degree of cure. In the present invention, by introducing hydrocolloid in place of the conventional emulsifier, the gelation of the water phase and the phenomenon of adsorption of water on the interface are inhibited, thereby preventing coagulation between particles, thereby forming a stable emulsion phase of the water phase and the oil phase. In the present invention, it is possible to prevent the phase transition and to prevent the transfer of the substance between the phases due to the osmotic pressure difference. .

Examples of the hydrocolloids used in the present invention include carrageenan and locust bean gum, which are selected from the group consisting of algin which belongs to natural gums, xanthan, guar gum, gellan, glucomannan, pluronic and agar. May be used, preferably a mixture of algin, carrageenan and locust bean gum.

Therefore, the oil-in-water type organogel composition of the present invention preferably contains 0.5 to 3.0 wt% of carrageenan, 1.0 to 2.5 wt% of locust bean gum, and further contains 0.1 to 1.0 wt% of algin .

The carrageenan used in the present invention is typically selected from the group consisting of Kappaphycus alvarezii, Chondrus crispus, Gigartina radula, Gigartina stellata, Gelation is induced by repeating the binding of galactose units through α1 → 3, or β1 → 4 glycosidic bonds, as a stagnant and extractable substance in seaweed components of the Eucheuma denticulatum line, And the characteristics are expressed according to the degree and position of the sulfuric acid generated through the reaction.

More specifically, carrageenan may be classified as Kappa-Carrageenan and Iota-Carrageenan, and Kappa-Carrageenan is classified as D-galactose-4-sulfate-3,6- D-galactose while Iota-carrageenan forms a repeating unit of D-galactose-4-sulfate-3,6-anhydro-D-galactose-2-sulfate . The Kappa-Carrageenan is more susceptible to double-helix structure due to transcription factor binding, and thus has a strength of being able to maintain its high strength and can support its own formulations without additional ingredients. By virtue of the above characteristics, a support having an oily phase is implanted through a water-based gel containing at least 0.5% by weight of Kappa-Carrageenan with respect to the total weight of the organogel composition to form a water-based external form formulation, It is possible to create ideal solids.

On the other hand, Iota-Carrageenan does not form gels alone, but by using it with kappa type, elasticity is imparted to the inelastic support so that the formulation can control the cleavage and at the same time control the syneresis have. It is a disadvantage that the existing product group is liable to cause problems such as deposition of water in the storage container due to dehydration which occurs at the top of the container during storage, transportation and use of the cosmetic preparation, coloration due to adsorption, and adhesion, Iota-Carrageenan) to form a gel support to stabilize and stabilize syneresis, thereby preventing the occurrence of such problems as described above.

Therefore, the term "carrageenan" in the present invention is used to mean a mixture of Kota-Carrageenan as an essential ingredient and optionally Iota-Carrageenan.

The carrageenan contained in the oil-in-water type organogel composition of the present invention is preferably 0.5 to 3.0% by weight based on the total weight of the composition. If the content is less than 0.5% by weight, the gelation speed of the composition may be slowed down or hardened, and hardness of the solids may not be maintained. If the content is more than 3.0% by weight, it may be difficult to dissolve the oil phase part, resulting in deterioration of the composition and deterioration of quality of the composition due to prolonged heating process, and change in texture and elasticity may be caused by increase in hardness . In addition, the tackiness of the organogel composition is lowered, the feeling of use is lowered, and it is difficult to apply the composition as a product because it is difficult to penetrate the useful ingredient when applied to the skin.

Also, the Locust Bean Gum contained in the oil-in-water type organogel composition of the present invention is preferably 1.0 to 2.5% by weight based on the total weight of the composition. When the content is less than 1.0% by weight, the organogel can not maintain an appropriate viscosity while preserving the liquid solution state, so that the formulation collapse may occur before solidification. When the content is more than 2.5% by weight, coagulation occurs in the liquid phase, which makes it difficult to maintain the uniformity of the liquid solution and can not manifest a property suited to the demand.

In addition, one species selected from the group consisting of algin, xanthan, guar gum, gellan, glucomannan, pluronic and agar contained in the oil-in-water type organogel composition of the present invention is 0.1 to 1.0 wt% . If the content is less than 0.1% by weight, it can not exert a great effect on the formation and maintenance of formulations. If the content is more than 1.0% by weight, the degree of curing may be accelerated or gelation may occur.

In addition, the organophilic organogel composition of the present invention may include a metal salt, and examples thereof include hydroxides, chlorides, sulfates, and phosphates of sodium, potassium, magnesium, calcium and the like. The metal salt may be added as a gel formation promoter of the composition.

The present invention provides an organogel composition comprising from 0.05 to 20.00% by weight of the oily phase and from 80 to 99.95% by weight of water. The organogel composition of the present invention is in the form of an oil-in-water prepared by dissolving an oil portion on a water surface, and can maintain a stable property and feeling without using an emulsifier conventionally used, Is excellent. The content of the oil phase portion is preferably 5 to 10% by weight based on the total weight of the organogel. When the content of the oil phase part is less than 0.05% by weight, it is difficult to make the milky white of the organogel less due to insufficient content. When the content of the oil phase part exceeds 20.00% by weight, formation of emulsion of oil-in-water type is difficult, . The oil-in-water part may contain a preservative agent and the like in addition to the oil component.

Wherein the oil component is selected from the group consisting of isopropyl myristate, ethyl laurate, ethyl myristate, isopropyl palmitate, butyl laurate, hexyl laurate, caprylic / capric triglyceride, butyleneglycol dicaprylate / Ester oils such as isopropyl myristate, triethylhexanone, cetylethylhexanoate, octyldodecanol, and polyol esters; Hydrocarbon oils such as cyclododecane, isooctane, liquid paraffin, vaseline, hydrogenated polydecene, cyclooctane, cyclopentane and squalane; Waxes such as microcrystalline wax, beeswax, lanolin wax, ozokerite wax, candelilla wax, carnauba wax and synthetic wax; Jojoba Oil, Avocado Oil, Almond Oil, Olive Oil, Sesame Oil, Wheat Germ Oil, Four Flower Oil, Camellia Oil, Castor Oil, Grape Seed Oil, Green Tea Seed Oil, Macadamia Nut Oil, Palm Oil, Rosehip Oil, Natural oils such as wood oil, argan tree kernel oil and lavender oil; And silicone oils such as cyclomethicone, phenyltrimethicone, cyclopentasiloxane, dimethicone, and the like, but not limited thereto, and preferably caprylic / capric triglyceride , Butyleneglycol dicaprylate / dicaprate, triethylhexanone, cetylethylhexanoate, isopropyl myristate, and octyldodecanol can be used.

[Evaluation Criteria] X: Excessive separation phenomenon, □: Gel not formed, B: Partial separation phenomenon, ○: No separation phenomenon

<Standards for viscosity standards: 2000 to 9000 cps>

The viscosity is based on the measured values when the solution passing through the dissolving process is maintained at 75 ° C in the presence of the incremental raw material. The coarse solution maintains a viscosity state in the reference, and a uniform particle distribution can be maintained. When the viscosity exceeds the value of 9000 cps in the liquid state, the gel flowability decreases and it is difficult to maintain uniform spreadability and homogeneity during cooling and coating processes. In addition, due to the formation of a strong network on the surface of water, the formation of fine particles may be inhibited and the stability may be deteriorated, and problems such as flocculation and premature gelation may occur in some of the manufacturing processes.

While maintaining the viscosity below the 2000 cps standard, the original form can not be preserved on the formulation until solidification through gelation, and the formulation tends to collapse before gelation due to high fluidity. In addition, the fluidity of the dispersed oil phase particles through the dissolving process is too high in the low viscosity state, which causes problems in maintaining the initial dispersion degree. As a result, coalescence occurs with time in the crude liquid, which results in lowering of uniformity and oily phase separation.

<Standard for pH standards: 5.00 to 8.00>

In the state where the pH is kept below the standard value, the heating process is continued, and the degree of hardening and viscosity is weakened, so that the formulation collapse may occur. Also, if the solidification is completed after the pH is excessively high or low, it may become a factor of skin trouble when the product is used.

<Standards for hardness standard: 1000 to 6000>

When the hardness is higher than the reference value, the hardness is greatly increased as compared with the elasticity, and the skin penetration ability of the gel may be decreased while having the property of Brittle. In addition, there may be problems in acting as a pack product due to a change in texture and deterioration in feeling.

As can be seen from the above Table 2, it can be seen that the organo-gel compositions of Examples 1 to 3 according to the present invention are in the range of the standard value in terms of viscosity, tensile hardness and constancy.

However, when the content of locust bean gum is less than 1.0% by weight (Comparative Example 1), the synergistic effect with carrageenan decreases with the decrease in viscosity, so that the tensile hardness of the organogel composition is lower than the reference value (that is, And the formulation property is weakened. On the other hand, when the algin content is less than 0.1% by weight (Comparative Example 2), the viscosity falls below the reference value and the formability is impaired. In addition, when the content of carrageenan was less than 0.5 wt% (Comparative Example 3), it was found that the viscosity and tensile hardness were below the reference value, and collapse occurred without maintaining the property.

In addition, when no carrageenan, which is an essential component of the hydrocolloid of the present invention, was added (Comparative Example 4), the viscosity and tensile hardness were below the reference value, the gel was not formed at all after cooling, (Comparative Example 5), the viscosity and tensile hardness were less than the standard values, and the liquid phase did not maintain the viscosity until it was cooled and hardened, and the product could not be produced because the viscosity of the product was diluted.

Test Example  : Formulation stability test

The stability of the formulation (gel formation) of the oil-in-water type organogel compositions of Examples 1 to 3 and Comparative Examples 1 to 3 prepared above was visually evaluated and the results are shown in Table 3.

The organogel composition is applied to the gels at room temperature, 5 ° C, 50 ° C and -10 ° C to 40 ° C (cycling once per day) over a period of 1 week, 2 weeks, 1 month, 2 months, The stability of the formulation was visually observed and then evaluated according to the following evaluation criteria.

As a result, as can be seen from Table 3, the organophilic composition of Examples 1 to 3 according to the present invention was found to be stable at room temperature, 5 ° C, 50 ° C and -10 ° C to 40 ° C, And the stability was maintained without separating at all from the water phase part.

On the other hand, in the case of Comparative Examples 1 to 3, the formulation was unstable during the initial preservation process after the preparation, and gel formation and maintenance were difficult under high temperature and low temperature conditions. In the case of Comparative Examples 1 to 3, the formulations were maintained for the longest time at room temperature, and the form of the formulations rapidly collapsed under high temperature and low temperature conditions.
