Description

CLEANSING ARTICLES FOR SKIN AND / OR HAIR WHICH ALSO DEPOSITS SKIN CARE ACTIVES}

Body cleansing products have conventionally been available in many forms, such as bar soaps, creams, lotions, and gels. Such detergents have met many standards that are acceptable to consumers. Such criteria include cleansing effects, skin feel, gentle to the skin, hair and eye mucosa, and volume of foam. Preferred body cleansers should gently clean the skin or hair, have little or no irritation, and should not excessively dry the skin or hair after frequent use.

However, these conventional forms of body cleansing products have the inherent problem of harmonizing the cleaning effect on delivering skin protection components. One solution to this problem is to use separate cleaning and skin protection products. However, this is not always convenient or practical, and many consumers prefer to use one product that can have both cleaning and skin protection effects. In typical cleaning compositions, skin care ingredients are difficult to formulate because many skin care actives are incompatible with surfactants, resulting in undesirable non-uniform mixtures. In order to obtain a homogeneous mixture of skin protection ingredients and to prevent the loss of the skin protection ingredients prior to deposition, additional ingredients such as emulsifiers, thickeners and gelling agents are added to suspend the skin care ingredients in the surfactant mixture. This results in an aesthetically desirable homogeneous mixture, but results in poor deposition of the skin protection component since the skin protection component is emulsified and is not effectively released during cleaning. Many skin protectants also have the drawback of inhibiting foaming. Foam suppression is a problem because many consumers require a rich, creamy and soft foam.

Therefore, conventional cleaning products that attempt to combine surfactants and skin care ingredients have the drawback that results in immiscibility of surfactants and skin care ingredients. There is a need to develop a cleaning system that provides effective cleansing with one product, but provides a consistent and sufficient skin protection effect.

It is also highly desirable to deliver effects to cleansing and skin care using a single disposable product. Disposable products are convenient because you do not need to carry cumbersome bottles, bars, barrels, tubes and other forms of body protection products. In addition, sponges, towels, or other reused cleaning tools are more hygienic than the use of such tools because of the undesirable properties of bacterial propagation, unpleasant odors, and other repeated use.

The present invention has surprisingly found that a product can be developed that is a convenient, inexpensive and hygienic disposable body cleansing product having the desirable properties of a towel, providing effective cleansing and consistent delivery of skin care active ingredients. The present invention provides the convenience of not having to use separate cleaning and skin protection products. The present invention is very convenient because it is in the form of a dry product which is actually wetted before use.

The present invention relates to a dry, disposable body cleansing product useful for cleaning skin or hair and delivering a skin-protective active ingredient to the skin or hair. Such products are used by consumers to wet dry goods with water. The product of the present invention consists of a water insoluble support, at least one foaming surfactant, and at least one skin protective active ingredient. In an embodiment, such a product comprises a deposition aid. Without being bound by theory, it is believed that the support enhances low surfactant levels, increases cleansing and exfoliation, and optimizes consistent deposition of skin protection ingredients. As a result, the present invention provides effective cleansing using low levels of surfactants to provide good skin protection in a less irritating, consistent and effective manner. Such products are also useful for delivering a wide range of conditioning ingredients to the skin or hair during the cleaning process.

Accordingly, it is an object of the present invention to provide a practically dry, towel-like product for cleaning skin or hair, delivering skin protective actives to the skin or hair, and used in combination with water.

It is another object of the present invention to provide a single use, single use product.

Another object of the present invention is to provide a product that is gentle to the skin or hair.

Another object of the present invention is to provide a product useful for delivering a conditioning agent to skin or hair during the cleaning process.

It is another object of the present invention to provide a product which consistently deposits a skin protective active ingredient and other conditioning agents on the skin or hair.

It is another object of the present invention to provide a method for cleaning skin or hair and delivering skin active ingredients to the skin or hair consistently.

Another object of the present invention is to provide a method for producing the product of the present invention.

These and other objects of the present invention will be clearly disclosed below.

The present invention relates to a dry, disposable, body cleansing product that is actually useful for cleaning both skin or hair and delivering a dermatologically active ingredient to the skin or hair. Such products are used by consumers by contacting the skin with the foamed product for normal use to wet the dry product with water, froth the product, and clean the skin.

The use of the support strengthens foam at low surfactant levels, increases cleansing and exfoliation, optimizes the delivery and deposition of skin protective active ingredients, and provides desirable features such as tissue, viscosity and volume. As a result, the present invention provides excellent delivery of the skin-protective active ingredient to the skin or hair, while providing effective cleaning with low, therefore less irritating levels of surfactant.

The invention also includes products containing various skin conditioning agents for delivery to the skin or hair.

The present invention also includes methods of delivering skin protection ingredients to the skin or hair while simultaneously cleaning the skin or hair using the products of the invention, and also include methods of producing such products.

The present invention relates to (A) a water insoluble support, (B) at least one foaming surfactant added to or impregnated in the support, and (C) a water soluble skin care active ingredient, an oil soluble skin care active ingredient and mixtures thereof. A disposable, disposable body care cleansing and conditioning product containing a skin care ingredient containing at least one skin care active ingredient selected from the group consisting of: Dermatologically active ingredients can also be added or impregnated to the support. Such products are actually dry before wetting. On wetting, however, these products can produce an average foam volume of at least about 30 ml.

In additional embodiments, the product of the present invention further contains one or more deposition aids added to or impregnated with the support.

In another additional embodiment, the present invention is directed to a method of making such a disposable, disposable body care cleaning product. The method comprises (A) adding or impregnating a water-insoluble support separately or simultaneously with (i) a foaming surfactant, and (ii) a skin-protective active ingredient, and (B) actually drying the treated support. do. The resulting product generates an average foam volume of at least about 30 ml.

In another additional embodiment, the present invention relates to a method of simultaneously cleaning skin or hair with a body cleansing product described herein and delivering a skin-protective active ingredient to the skin or hair.

In additional embodiments, the present invention relates to a method of consistently depositing a skin protection component on skin or hair.

All percentages and ratios used in the present invention are by weight unless otherwise indicated, and all measurements are made at 25 ° C unless otherwise indicated. The present invention may contain, constitute, or consist essentially of the optional ingredients and the ingredients described herein as well as the essential ingredients.

The body cleansing products of the present invention are very effective in effectively cleaning skin or hair while at the same time effectively depositing a skin protective active ingredient on the skin or hair. The product may also contain a conditioning agent that is deposited on the skin or hair.

Without being bound by theory, it is believed that the support significantly contributes to the generation of foam and the deposition of skin protective active ingredients and other conditioning agents on the skin or hair. The increase in foam and deposition is a result of the surface reaction of the skin or hair with the support. As a result, milder and significantly lower amounts of surfactant can be used. Reduced amounts of the required surfactants are associated with a reduction in the drying effect of the skin or hair by the surfactants. In addition, reduced amounts of surfactants significantly reduce the surfactant's inhibitory action (eg, through emulsification or direct removal by surfactants) on the deposition of skin protective actives on the skin or hair.

Without theoretical limitations, the substrate also enhances the deposition and conditioning agents of the skin protection component. Since the present invention is dry, the present invention does not require emulsifiers that can interfere with the deposition of skin protective active ingredients and conditioning agents. In addition, since the skin-protective active ingredient and the skin conditioning agent are dried on the support or impregnated in the support, it is delivered directly by surface contact with the skin of the product moistened with the skin or hair.

The support also enhances cleaning. The support may have different tissues on each side, for example rough and smooth sides. The support serves as an effective foam and exfoliation tool. By physical contact with the skin or hair, the substrate significantly helps to clean and remove dirt, makeup, dead skin, and other residues.

"Foam forming surfactant" means a surfactant which, in combination with water, generates foam or foam upon mechanical shaking. Preferably, such surfactants should be mild, which provides a sufficient cleansing or cleansing effect, but does not excessively dry the skin or hair (eg, removing excess oil and / or moisture). It means to satisfy the foam criteria described above.

"Disposable" or "disposable" refers herein to products that are generally disposed of or disposed of after single use.

By "bubble product" or "bubbled product" is meant that the product of the invention contains sufficient surfactant to generate a foam volume of ≧ 30 ml as described herein in the foam volume test. This foam volume measurement is performed at 95 ° C. with medium hard water (8-10 grains per gallon).

The term "water-activated" means that the invention is provided to the consumer in a dry form that is used after wetting with water. Such products create or “activate” foam by contact with water, and then the product is subjected to mechanical forces such as friction.

As used herein, the term "actual drying" means that the product is virtually free of water and generally feels dry before use. Therefore, the products of the present invention generally contain less than about 10% by weight, preferably less than about 5% by weight, more preferably less than about 1% by weight, as measured in advance in a dry environment, such as low humidity. something to do. One skilled in the art knows that the water content of the product, as in the present invention, can vary widely depending on the relative humidity of the environment.

As used herein and in reference to foaming surfactants and articles of the present invention, the term "pure" refers to a mild alkyl glyceryl ether sulfonate (AGS) interface in which the product of the present invention is based on a synthetic bar, ie a synbar. Means milder to the skin than the active agent. The mildness, or vice versa, method of measuring the product containing a surfactant is based on a skin barrier damage test. In this test, the milder the surfactant, the less damage the skin barrier. Skin barrier damage is measured by the relative amount of radiolabeled (titanium labeled) water (3H-H ₂ O) that passes from the test solution through the skin epithelium into the physiological buffer contained in the dispersion chamber. The test is described in TJ Franz, J. Invest. Dermatol., 1975, 64, pp. 190-195; And US Pat. No. 1, dated 1987.6.16. 4,673,525 to to Small et al., Incorporated herein by this reference. Other test methods known to those skilled in the art to determine the mild degree of surfactant can also be used.

As used herein, the term “deposition consistency” is that the deposition of the skin-protective active ingredient will be relatively unchanged whether the consumer manufactures, uses, or actually uses the cleaning product (eg, delivers the skin-protective active ingredient). Foaming the side of the support and foaming the support side with the surfactant). The article of the invention will have a deposition consistency of greater than about 60%, preferably greater than about 65%, more preferably greater than about 70%, most preferably greater than about 75%. Determination of deposition consistency is achieved by dividing the amount of dermatologically active ingredient resulting from "non-ideal foaming and use" into the skincare active ingredient resulting from "ideal foaming and use". By non-ideal foam as used herein is meant a foam obtained by rubbing together or against the surface of a product comprising some skin-protective active ingredient and then contacting the skin or hair to the same surface. This results in insufficient deposition of the skinprotective active ingredient since some skincare active ingredients are emulsified by the surfactant. As used herein, the ideal foam is friction with or against the surface of the product where the foam comprises a surfactant, but does not contain a skin-protective active ingredient, and the skin or hair is contacted with a surface that contains a skin-protective active ingredient. It means the foam obtained by making it. If both surfaces of the support are treated with a skin-protective active ingredient, the same reference point will apply (for example, deposited and unemulsified skin obtained by foaming and contacting the skin with the same foam surface containing the emulsified skin-protective active ingredient). Skin contact with a non-bubble surface containing a protective active ingredient). Deposition consistency is maximum when the hardness value of the skin protective active ingredient exceeds about 0.02 kg.

The body care product of the present invention contains the following essential ingredients: (A) a water insoluble support, (B) a foaming surfactant added to or impregnated in one or more supports, and (C) one or more skin care Active ingredient. The product of the present invention may further contain one or more deposition aids.

Water Insoluble Support

The product of the present invention contains a water insoluble support. "Water insoluble" means a support that does not dissolve or immediately degrade upon immersion. The water insoluble support is a tool or carrier for delivering the foaming surfactant and the skin-protective active ingredient of the present invention to the skin and / or hair. Without being bound by theory, the support provides a foaming effect as a means of providing mechanical force transmission and shaking, and also aids in the deposition of skin protective actives on the skin and / or hair.

A wide variety of materials can be used as the support. The following non-limiting properties are preferred: (i) sufficient wet strength in use, (ii) sufficient friction, (iii) sufficient loft and porosity, (iv) sufficient thickening, and (v) suitable size.

The water insoluble support of the present invention may contain two or more layers, each having a different texture, friction and stretchability. Different tissue results from the use of different combinations of materials or the use of different manufacturing processes or combinations thereof. The double woven support is made to provide the advantage of having a more rubbing side for exfoliation and a softer and absorbent side for gentle cleaning. The support may also be two layers of laminate with different wet extensibility. The laminate support is described in pending US application Ser. No. 09 / 013,640, filed Jan. 26, 1998, which is incorporated herein by reference. In addition, the separation layer of the support can be made to have a different color, so that the user can further distinguish the surface. It is also preferred that the support of the present invention has rounded corners. This feature prevents the tendency of water to accumulate at the corners of the non-round rectangular support.

Skin protection active ingredient

The body cleansing product of the present invention essentially contains a skin protection active ingredient selected from the group consisting of a stable and effective amount of a water soluble skin protection active ingredient, an oil soluble skin protection active ingredient, a pharmaceutically acceptable salt and a mixture thereof. As used herein, the term "skin-protective active ingredient" means a body-protective active ingredient which can be used to deliver benefits to the skin and / or hair and generally gives the conditioning benefits defined below. As used herein, a "safe effective amount" is a skin protective active ingredient that is high enough to improve the condition being treated, deliver the desired skin protection benefit, and low enough to avoid serious side effects, at a risk ratio of reasonable benefit within the medical judgment. Means the amount of. As used herein, the term "skin care benefit" refers to a therapeutic, prophylactic and / or long term benefit associated with treating a particular condition with one or more skin care actives described herein. The safe effective amount of the skin-protective active ingredient varies depending on factors such as the specific skin-protective active ingredient, the skin permeability of the active ingredient, the health of the user, and the skin condition. Preferably, the product of the present invention is about 0.001% to about 50%, more preferably about 0.01% to about 25% by weight of the water-insoluble support, even more preferably 0.05% to about 10%, most preferably Preferably from 0.1% to about 5% of a skin protective active ingredient.

The skin-protective active ingredient of the present invention contains a water-soluble skin-protective active ingredient, an oil-soluble skin-protective active ingredient, a skin-protecting emulsion, or any combination or substituent thereof. The oil soluble skin care active ingredient is selected from one or multiple oil soluble skin care active ingredients having a weight arithmetic mean solubility coefficient of 10.5 or less. The water soluble skin care active ingredient is selected from one or a plurality of water soluble skin care active ingredients having a weight arithmetic mean solubility coefficient of 10.5 or more. Based on the mathematical definition of the solubility coefficient, for example, for an oil-soluble skincare active ingredient comprising two or more compounds, even if one of the compounds has an individual solubility coefficient of at least 10.5, that is, It is recognized that it is possible to achieve a weight arithmetic mean solubility factor of 10.5 or less. Conversely, for a water soluble skincare active ingredient comprising two or more compounds, it is desirable to achieve an appropriate, that is, weight arithmetic mean solubility factor of 10.5 or more, even if one of the compounds has an individual solubility factor of 10.5 or less It is recognized that it is possible.

Solubility coefficients are well known to formulation chemists in the art and are routinely used as a guide to determine the compatibility and solubility of materials in the formulation process. The solubility coefficient δ of a chemical compound is defined as the square root of the aggregation energy density of that compound. Typically, the solubility coefficient for a compound is calculated from the tabulated values of the addition group contribution for the heat of evaporation and molar volume of the components of the compound using the following equation:

(Where, Σ _i E _i = sum of contributions of the evaporative heat additive groups and Σ _i m _i = sum of the molar volume addition group contributions).

Standard values for the heat of evaporation and contribution of the molar volume additive group to various atoms and groups are described here by Barton. Collected in A.F.M. Handbook of Solubility Parameters, CRC Publisher, Chapter 6, Table 3, pages 64-66 (1985). The solubility coefficient equation is described in Fedors. R. F., "Solubility Coefficients and Methods for Estimating Molar Volumes," Polymer Engineering and Science, Vol. 14, No. 2, pages 147-154.

The solubility coefficient follows the law of the mixture such that the solubility coefficient for a mixture of different substances is represented by the weighted arithmetic mean (ie, weight average) of the solubility coefficients of each component of the mixture. See Handbook of Chemistry and Physics, 57th edition, CRC Publisher, C-726 (1976-1977) cited here. Compounding chemistry typically uses solubility coefficients in units of (cal / cm ³ ) ^1/2 . In the Handbook of Solubility Parameters, the figures in the table for the contribution of the adder to the evaporative heat are reported in kJ / mol. However, these evaporative heat values listed in the table can be easily converted to cal / mol using the following well-known relationship.

1 J / mol = 0.239006 cal / mol, and 1000 J = 1 kJ

The composition is within the scope of the present invention as long as the water soluble skin protectant is surrounded by an oil soluble agent and is not rinsed during cleaning.

The discontinuous phase may optionally contain other water soluble or dispersing materials that do not adversely affect the stability of the skin protective emulsion. One such material is a water soluble electrolyte. The dissolved electrolyte also minimizes the tendency for the substances present in the lipid phase to dissolve in the water phase. The dissolved electrolyte minimizes the tendency of substances present in the lipid phase to dissolve in the water phase. Electrolytes that can deposit ionic strength in discontinuous phases can be used. Suitable electrolytes are water soluble mono, di or trivalent inorganic salts such as chlorides, nitrates, and sulfates of water soluble halides such as alkali metals or alkaline earth metals.

Preferred embodiments of the product of the invention contain an emulsifier capable of forming emulsions of discontinuous and continuous phases. In the emulsion of the present invention, the emulsifier is contained in an effective amount. "Effective amount" depends on several factors including the respective amount of fat-soluble agent, the type of emulsifier used, the degree of impurities contained in the emulsifier, and the like.

Deposition aids

The present invention is based on the weight of the water-insoluble support, with about 0.01% to about 10% of the deposition aid, preferably about 0.05% to about 7%, more preferably about 0.10% to about 5%, most preferably About 0.15% to about 2%. Preferably, the deposition aid is water dispersible. "Water dispersibility" means that the deposition aid is dissolved in water at a concentration of 0.1%, preferably at a concentration of 0.5%, more preferably at a concentration of 1.0% in water at 25 ° C. Although optional, particularly when water-soluble skin protective active ingredients are used, preferred embodiments of the present invention include deposition aids.

Without being bound by theory, deposition aids have been believed to enhance the deposition of water soluble conditioning agents on the skin or hair during the cleaning process and also assist in the attachment of water soluble conditioning agents to the surface of the skin and hair during the rinsing process. In general, such deposition aids are believed to act in part or in whole through the following mechanisms: traction of electrostatics (mammal's skin is negatively charged); Hydrophobic traction because the skin is more hydrophobic than water; And substances which become water dispersible in the presence of a surfactant or water insoluble during rinsing. One or more deposition aids useful herein may be added or injected into the support, alone or in combination with a surfactant or water soluble conditioning agent. The deposition aid may be cationic, nonionic, anionic or zwitterionic, preferably cationic or nonionic, more preferably cationic. Suitable deposition aids for use herein are US Patent No. 5,588,752 (Turner et al.), Issued November 18, 1997, US Patent No. 5,624,666 (Coffindaffer et al.), Dated April 29, 1997, U.S. Patent No. 5,635,469 (Fowler et al.), Issued on September 9, 1997 U.S. Patent No. 5,672,567 (Beherens et al.), Dated on September 9, 1998, US Patent No. 5,716,920 to Glenn Jr. et al.), U.S. Patent No. 5,720,964 (Murray), issued on Feb. 2, 1998, and U.S. Patent No. 5,714,446 to Bartz et al., All of which are incorporated by reference.

[CTFA Cosmetic Ingredient Handbook, 2nd Edition, 1992], incorporated herein by reference in its entirety, describes various deposition aids, which are suitable for use in the compositions of the present invention. Non-limiting examples of useful deposition aids include cationic polymers, nonionic polymers, zeolites, clays, and mixtures thereof. Cationic polymers are particularly useful as deposition aids in the products of the present invention because they have a miscibility with negatively charged skin surfaces and are believed to help maintain various components of the formulation on the skin surface. It is also believed that cationic polymers form coacervates (eg, water soluble complexes) with cationic surfactants.

Cationic polymers generally have a weight average molecular weight of at least about 5,000, typically at least about 10,000, and less than about 10,000,000. Preferably, the weight average molecular weight is about 100,000 to about 5,000,000, more preferably about 200,000 to about 2,000,000. The cationic polymer has a cationic nitrogen-containing moiety or a cationic amino moiety, such as quaternary ammonium, or a mixture thereof. Suitable cationic polymers are described in US Pat. 5,672,576 (Behrens et al.) And 5,720,964, issued February 2, 1998, both of which are incorporated by reference.

Cationic nitrogen-containing moieties will generally be present as substituents on the moiety of the cationic hair conditioning polymer total monomeric units. Thus, cationic polymers may include copolymers, terpolymers, etc. of quaternary ammonium or cationic amine-substituted monomer units and other noncationic units referred to herein as spacer monomers. Such polymers are known in the art and are found in various CTFA cosmetic ingredient dictionaries (3rd edition, Estrin, Crosley, and Haynes Edit, The Cosmetic, Toiletry, and Fragrance Assocoation, Inc., Washington, DC, 1982). .

The cationic charge density is preferably at least about 0.3 meq / gram, more preferably at least about 0.6 meq / gram, even more preferably at least about 1.0 meq / gram, most preferably at least 1.2 meq / gram. Cationic charge densities are generally about 4 meq / gram or less, more typically about 3.0 meq / gram. Cationic charge density of the cationic polymer is determined according to the Kjeldahl method. Those skilled in the art are aware that the charge density of the amino-containing polymer of the final product may vary depending on the pH and isoelectric point of the amino group. The charge density should be within these limits at the pH used.

Any anionic counterion can be used for the cationic polymer as long as it meets the water solubility criteria. Suitable counterions include halides (eg CI, Br, I, or F, preferably CI, Br, or I), sulfates and methylsulfates. Others can also be used.

As mentioned above, the cationic polymer is preferably water dispersible. However, this does not mean that the product of the invention should be made available when wet and stirred to foam. Preferably, however, when the product of the present invention is wetted and stirred to foam, or when the water-insoluble support is treated with a pre-complex coacervate formed by the cationic polymer and the anionic material, the cationic polymer Is water dispersible. Such composite coacervate phases can be added to or impregnated into the support independently or in combination with foaming surfactants or water soluble conditioning agents. Composite coacervates of cationic polymers may be formed with anionic surfactants of the products herein or with anionic polymers (eg, sodium polystyrene sulfonates) that may optionally be added to the products herein. Complex coacervates are believed to deposit more readily than water soluble conditioning agents on skin or hair. Therefore, it is generally desirable for the cationic polymer to be present as a composite coacervate phase in / on the product of the present invention or to form a coacervate phase after dilution of the resulting foam after wetting and stirring these products. If the cationic polymer has not already formed coacervate in or on the article of the invention, the polymer will preferably be present in complex coacervate form after dilution.

Coacervate formation can be achieved by various criteria such as molecular weight, concentration, and ratio of interacting ionic materials, ionic strength (e.g., modification of ionic strength by addition of salts), charge density of cation and anionic species, pH and Depends on temperature Coacervate systems and the effects of these factors have already been studied. For example, [J. Caelles, et al., "Anionic and Cationic Compounds in Mixed System", Cosmetics Toiletries, Vol. 106, April 1991, pp. 49-54; Van Oss, "Coacervation, Complex-Coacervation and Flocculation", J. Dispersion Science and Technology, Vol. 9 (5,6), 1988-89, pp. 561-573; D. J. Burgess, "Practical Analysis of Complex Coacervate Systems", J. of Colloid and Interface Science, Vol. 140, No. 1, November 1990. pp. 227-238; and U.S. Pat. No. 5,716,920, Glenn Jr. et al., issued Feb. 10, 1998].

Analytical techniques for complex coacervate formation are known in the art. For example, microscopic analysis of the bubbles in any dilution step selected may be used to confirm that coacervate phase has formed. This coacervate phase can be the same as the additional emulsifying phase and the dye can be useful for distinguishing the coacervate phase from other insoluble phases dispersed in the foam.

Nonionic and cationic polymers useful in the present invention can be derived from both natural and synthetic raw materials. Among the polymers derived from natural raw materials, those derived from cellulose and proteins are very preferred. Among the synthetic polymers, polyethylenimine and polyacrylamide are preferred. Suitable deposition aids of the general kind used in the products of the invention are rubbers, hydrophilic colloids and their derivatives, biological polymers and their derivatives, synthetic polymers, polymerizable ethers and proteins and their derivatives, quaternary ammonium compounds, coacervates, and mixtures thereof It includes.

In other alternative structures, it is known that useful cellulose polymers are also obtained when R, R ', and R "are all methyl (ie, trimonium groups). In another alternative structure, cationic substituents on cellulose are also obtained. Is-(OCH ₂ CH ₂ O) -CH ₂ CHOHCH ₂ NRR'R ", wherein R, R ', and R" are methyl or ethyl, and R "is C _10-20 alkyl [preferably lauryl, Stearyl, or cocoyl (ie, a mixture of alkyl groups derived from coconut oil)], or alternatively R, R ', and R "are all methyl (ie, trimonium groups).

Lipid hardness value

In embodiments that further comprise a conditioning component, the article preferably has a minimum lipid hardness value of about 0.02 kg. Lipid hardness values are physical hardness measurements of the combination of all conditioning agents in the conditioning component. Increasing the lipid hardness value is believed to increase the deposition persistence of the conditioning agent despite the variety of foaming techniques used by the consumer. Increasing the conditioning component hardness is believed to reduce delivery in the support and also to reduce emulsification of the conditioning agent by the surfactant during the foaming step. As a result, many conditioning agents remain available for mechanical delivery through contact with skin or hair.

The conditioning component of the present invention has a lipid hardness value of at least about 0.02 kg, preferably at least about 0.05 and more preferably at least about 0.10. Preferably, the lipid hardness value of the conditioning component should not be more than about 5.00 kg, more preferably about 4.00 kg, and most preferably 3.00 kg, which means that hardness levels beyond this limit may be applied to the skin or hair. May adversely affect the deposition of conditioning agents in the conditioning component.

Lipid hardness test

Lipid hardness values are measured by the tests conventionally used to determine soap hardness in the form of bars. A Chatillon force gauge is used to measure the hardness value of a 5-8 ounce sample of conditioning component. Measure several times for each new sample to obtain an average value. Chattylon Force Gauge Model No. DFIS100 is available from Chatillon Corp. (Greensboro, North Carolina).

Manufacturing method

Disposable personal care cleansing and conditioning products of the present invention are prepared by simultaneously or separately adding or impregnating a foaming surfactant and a conditioning component to a water-insoluble support (eg, optionally substituted) having a wet swelling portion. The product is substantially dry. The term "separate" means that the surfactant and the conditioning agent can be added in any order without first being combined together. The term "simultaneously" means that surfactants and conditioning agents which are combined together or not combined can be added simultaneously.

Preferably, the foaming surfactant and the skin-protective active ingredient are separately added to prevent emulsification of the skin-protective active ingredient. This separation treatment of the support also applies to any conditioning component. In a preferred embodiment, the optional impregnating adjuvant comprises (i) mixing the mixture with the foaming surfactant prior to the support treatment, (ii) mixing the mixture with the skin-protective active ingredient before the support treatment, and (iii) separately added as a support It may be impregnated in the support. However, when the surfactant is added in a dip / nip process, it is preferable to add the skin-protective active ingredient and any optional ingredients after use of the surfactant. In spite of the order of treatment, excess surfactant, skin-protective active ingredient and / or impregnating aid must be removed (eg by nipping process). The treated material should then be dried by conventional means. Surfactants, skin care ingredients, impregnation aids, and optional optional ingredients are known to those skilled in the art: for example, spraying, laser printing, splashing, dipping, soaking or coating (eg, extrusion coating and slot coating). ) Or impregnated.

If water or moisture is used or present in the manufacturing process, the resulting treatment support is dried to be substantially free of water. The treated support can be dried by any means known to those skilled in the art. Non-limiting examples of known drying means include the use of conventional ovens, radiant heat sources, microwave ovens, forced blow ovens and heating rollers or cans. Drying also includes air drying without the addition of a heat source in addition to being present in the surrounding environment. In addition, a combination of various drying methods can be used.

How to maintain the actual skin protective active ingredient on the surface of the support

The product of the present invention effectively and effectively delivers the skin-protective active ingredient to the skin and hair by actually maintaining the skin-protective active ingredient on the surface of the support. The following section describes in more detail the process and enhancement of the composition to give the surface a saturation ratio of at least about 1.25. All of the following procedures and enhancements of the composition can be used individually or in combination to actually maintain the skin-protective active ingredient on the surface. The term "chemical ingredient" as used herein means a skin-protective active ingredient or a combination of a conditioning agent and a skin-protective active ingredient.

Chemical treatment of support

One method of actually maintaining the chemical component on the surface of the support is to chemically treat the support or fibers of the support with a hydrophobic or hydrophilic support. Selecting a suitable support (hydrophobic or hydrophilic) depends on the chemical component being deposited. For example, if an oil soluble conditioning agent is deposited on the skin or hair, the support or fiber thereof will typically be treated with a hydrophilic support and vice versa. Since most supports are hydrophobic in nature, for example derived from polyolefins, this portion will concentrate on hydrophilic chemical treatment of the support.

A wide variety of surfactants, including ionic or nonionic surfactants, can be used to modify the support hydrophilically. Suitable surfactants may be applied before the internal modifier, such as the modifying compound, spins or forms the fiber in the polymer composition, or after the topical modifier, such as the modifying compound, is locally or during the formation of the fiber or nonwoven network. Internal reforming processes are disclosed in US Pat. No. 4,578,414 (Sawyer et al.) And topical reforming processes are disclosed in US Pat. No. 5,057,361 (Sayovits et al.), All of which are incorporated herein by reference.

Non-limiting examples of suitable surfactants include silicone based surfactants such as polyalkylene-oxide modified polydimethyl siloxanes; Fluoroaliphatic surfactants such as perfluoroalkyl polyalkylene oxides; And other surfactants such as acetyl-phenoxypolyethoxy ethanol nonionic surfactants, alkylaryl polyether alcohols, and polyethylene oxides. Commercially available surfactants suitable for the present invention include various poly (ethylene oxide) based surfactants sold under the trade name TRITON, such as, for example, grade X-102 (Rhom and Haas Corp.); Various polyethylene glycol based surfactants sold under the trade name EMEREST, such as grades 2620 and 2650 (Emeny INdust.); Various polyalkylene oxide modified polydimethylsiloxane based surfactants sold under the trade name SILWET, such as grade Y12488 (OSI Specialty Chemicals); And alkenyl succinamide surfactants sold under the trade name LUBRIZOL, such as grade OS85870 (Lubrizol Corp.); And polyoxyalkylene modified fluoroaliphatic surfactants available from Minnesota Mining and Manufacturing Co. The surfactant required and the hydrophobicity of the modified support or the fibers of the support used will vary depending on the type of surfactant selected and the component polymer used. In general, the surfactant may be added at about 0.1 to about 5%, preferably at about 0.3% to about 4%, either locally or internally, relative to the weight of the support or fibers of the support.

Viscosity increase

Indeed, another way of keeping the chemical component on the surface of the support is to increase the viscosity before use on the support. This is a chemical component that prevents saturation of the support. In general, there are two ways to increase the viscosity of a chemical component: (i) application on a support at the transition temperature of the chemical component; And (ii) introducing a thickener into the chemical mixture prior to application on the support. Combinations of these methods are preferred.

Phase transition temperature applied to the support

One method of maintaining the chemical component on the surface of the support is to apply the chemical component to the support at the phase transition temperature of the chemical component. This method can be applied to all chemical components whose phase transition temperature is about 35 ° C. or higher (eg viscous at room temperature). The phase transition temperature used herein is defined as the temperature at which a chemical component transitions from a fluid liquid state to a viscous state. Essentially, this method is applied to chemical components at temperatures such that they become viscous from the flowable liquid state during the cooling process.

Typically, the chemical component is applied to the support by melting or heating. Alternatively, the chemical component may be heated or dissolved in a solvent prior to application to the support. However, some chemicals are viscous and fluid enough to be applied without heating. If the chemical component has a transition temperature of about room temperature or slightly above room temperature, other methods can be used to retain the chemical component on the surface of the support. The transition temperature (also known as melting temperature) of most chemicals can be readily obtained from the Merck Index (10th edition, 1983) and the CTFA Cosmetic Ingredient Handbook (2nd edition, 1992), all of which are incorporated herein by reference.

Application of the transition temperature to the support is the overcooling of the chemical components in the application to the support. Subcooling means that the cooling rate artificially increases above the normal environmental temperature cooling rate. This provides two advantages: having fluidity of the chemical during the process and reaching the phase transition temperature before the support is saturated by the chemical. This method can be used when the chemical component is viscous and plastic at room temperature.

Thickener: If the chemical component is a liquid at room temperature (eg no viscosity), the chemical component will not primarily remain on the surface of the support. Instead, the chemicals will tend to migrate and flow to the support of the void volume. The method provides a solution by introducing a thickener into the chemical component. This increases the viscosity of the chemical component, thereby obtaining the same results as applying the phase transition temperature to the support. Since the viscosity of the chemical component is effectively increased, it actually remains on the surface of the support without saturation of the support. In general, the thickener should be viscous at room temperature and compatible with the chemical components. The phase transition temperature and the appropriate viscosity of the thickener will vary greatly depending on the particular thickener. Typically, however, the phase transition temperature of the thickener should exceed about 35 ° C, preferably above about 40 ° C.

In general, anything viscous at room temperature may be a thickener. The CTFA Cosmetic Ingredient Handbook (2nd edition, 1992) is incorporated by reference in its entirety and discloses many suitable thickeners. In fact, some conditioning agents that are more viscous than the chemical ingredients disclosed above and compatible with the chemical ingredients may be suitable thickeners.

Non-limiting examples of useful thickeners of the present invention are fatty alcohols, fatty acids, fatty alcohol ethoxylates having an average degree of ethoxylation of 2 to about 30, sorbitan esters, glycerol esters, polyglycerol esters, methyl glucose esters, sucrose Esters, sorbitan ester ethoxylates, natural and synthetic waxes, polyacrylics and hydrophobically modified polyacrylic resins, starches, rubbers, cellulose ethers, polycationic polymers, nonionic polymers, polyethylene glycols (PEG), and mixtures thereof Selected from the group consisting of.

ACCO 7112, CARBOWAX.

Non-Uniform Application to Supports

Another way to actually retain the chemical on the surface of the support is to apply the chemical non-uniformly to the surface of the support. "Non-uniform" means that the amount, manner, and the like of the dispersion of the chemical components may vary depending on the surface of the support. For example, the surface of some supports may have higher or lower amounts of chemicals, including portions of the surface that do not have chemicals.

Order of application of components to the support

Another way to actually retain the chemical component on the support surface is to determine the order of application of the component to the support. In general, the best results can be obtained when the chemical is added on a dry support. Therefore, drying the surfactant treated support after first applying the foaming surfactant and then before application of the chemical will greatly enhance the delivery of the chemical.

How to clean or treat skin or hair

The invention also relates to a method for cleaning and treating skin or hair with the body cleansing product of the invention. These methods include wetting an essentially dry disposable body wash product containing a water-insoluble support, a foaming surfactant, and a skin-protective active ingredient with water, and contacting the wet product with skin or hair. Doing. In another embodiment, the present invention is also useful for delivering various active ingredients to the skin or hair.

The products of the present invention are inherently dry and are designed to wet with water prior to use. The product is either submerged in water or placed in a water stream. Foam is generated from the product by mechanically stirring or modifying the product prior to contact of the product with skin or hair. The foam obtained is useful for cleaning and treating skin or hair. In the cleaning process and subsequent rinsing with water, the skin protective active ingredient and the optional ingredient are deposited on the skin or hair. The deposition of the dermatologically active ingredient and the conditioning ingredient is enhanced by physical contact of the support by skin or hair.

Deposition consistency measurements are used to determine the amount of deposition of skin-protective active ingredients that occurs through "non-ideal foaming and use" of deposition of skin-protective active ingredients that occurs through "ideal foaming and use." It is your share. Non-ideal foaming as used herein means that foaming is accomplished by rubbing together or against the surface of the product containing the skin-protective active ingredient, and then contacting the skin or hair with the same surface. This inefficient deposition of dermatologically active ingredients occurs because some skincare actives are emulsified by surfactants. Ideal foaming means that foaming is accomplished by rubbing with or against the surface of the product that contains a surfactant but no skin protective active ingredient, followed by contacting the skin or hair with a conditioning agent-containing surface. The same relevant point is to apply whether all of the surfaces of the support are treated with a dermatologically active ingredient (e.g. forming a foam and contacting the skin against contact with the foaming surface containing the emulsified dermatologically active ingredient). Deposits obtained by contact with a non-foaming surface containing an emulsified skin protective active ingredient. Thus, deposition consistency is at a maximum when the lipid hardness value of the skin protective active ingredient is greater than about 0.02 kg.

The amount of conditioning ingredient deposited on the skin or hair is measured using various standard analytical techniques known to chemists in the art. The method may for example take a portion of the skin or hair and then perform chromatography (ie gas chromatography, liquid chromatography, mass chromatography, supercritical fluid chromatography, etc.), IR spectroscopy, UV / VIS spectroscopy, mass spectroscopy. Analysis by the present invention. Direct measurements are made on the skin or hair by techniques such as IR spectroscopy, UV / VIS spectroscopy, opacity measurement, fluorescence spectroscopy, ESCA spectroscopy and the like.

In a typical method for measuring deposition, the articles of the present invention are wetted with water and press-stirred to form bubbles. The product is then applied at a site of from about 25 cm ² to about 300 cm ² , preferably from about 50 cm ² to about 100 cm ² for about 15 seconds on the skin or head bounded by a suitable indelible marker. Rubbed The site is then rinsed for about 10 seconds and then dried with air for about 10 minutes. The site is then harvested and the harvest analyzed or directly using any of the methods exemplified above.
