Description

Keratin Removing Sponge [0002]

The present invention relates to a sponge for removing exfoliation, and more particularly, to a sponge for removing exfoliation that can easily remove keratin from the whole body without irritating or damaging the skin.

The stratum corneum consists of 10 to 20 layers of dead cells and intercellular nerve and natural moisturizing factor (NMF), which are present in the outermost part of the skin. This protects the skin from external pollutants, Which is an important factor in preventing water loss.

In healthy individuals, the cells differentiated from the basal layer matured to reach the granule layer. On the 14th day, the cells reaching the granule layer lost 14 days until the cell nucleus disappeared and became keratinocytes, reaching the horny layer and disappeared. The turn-over period of the stratum corneum is about 4 weeks. After a certain period of time, the old stratum corneum is naturally peeled off and a new stratum corneum is formed. However, due to internal factors such as aging and external factors such as ultraviolet rays, the turnover cycle becomes long and unbalanced, and the stratum corneum is old and stratified, and the skin becomes dull, the skin tone becomes uneven, and the skin becomes angular .

Several methods have been used to remove these thickened keratin and eliminate dullness. Examples thereof include a method of rubbing with sand or sandpaper, a method of carving using a cutter, a method of rubbing by using a towel having a concave and convex structure, a method of removing by using a skin removing agent, How to use it, how to use it, and so on.

However, the method of rubbing with sand or sandpaper and cutting with a cutter can be applied to the heel, but it is difficult to use in other parts of the body where the skin is weak, . In addition, the method using a towel having a concavo-convex structure can be used in various body parts, but has disadvantages of causing skin irritation and damage. Also, the method of using the medicine may cause burns due to the influence of the acid component, which is the main component of the medicine, and there is a disadvantage that it damages other skin, and the method using the cosmetic composition for exfoliation and the method using the timber There is a slight disadvantage.

Accordingly, there is a demand for an exfoliation method which is excellent in the effect of removing keratin formed on the skin, but does not damage or stimulate the skin.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

The conventional exfoliation method has a disadvantage in that the exfoliation effect of the exfoliation is insignificant or causes skin irritation and damage. Thus, the exfoliating sponge according to the present invention can easily remove only the exfoliation without causing skin damage and irritation In order to be able to do so.

First, FIG. 1 shows a first embodiment of the exfoliating sponge according to the present invention.

As shown in FIG. 1, the sponge for exfoliation according to the present invention includes a foam 10 having fine cells formed therein, wherein the foam 10 is a polyvinyl alcohol foam or a polyurethane foam.

In the present invention, the foam 10 having the fine cells formed therein is made of a polyvinyl alcohol foam or a polyurethane foam so that the skin can be easily removed due to microcells without inducing skin irritation or skin damage, and absorbency and durability There is an advantage of being excellent.

At this time, the method of forming the polyvinyl alcohol foam and the method of forming the polyurethane foam are not limited to the methods disclosed in the prior art. However, it is more preferable to use a high-density foam in order to facilitate exfoliation.

In addition, the present invention may include activated carbon and coffee beans in the foam 10 to further enhance the exfoliation effect and minimize skin irritation.

The activated carbon is prepared by finely milling bituminous coal and activating the activated carbon by steam activation method in a temperature range of 850 to 1150 ° C. The pores are formed as micropores and have a specific surface area of about 1,000 m 2 / g to effectively absorb and exfoliate the keratin. In addition, by including such activated carbon in the form of powder having a particle size of 200 to 350 mesh, the skin irritation is also minimized.

In addition, the coffee bean refers to a residue left after the coffee beans roasted with roasted coffee bean are mechanically pulverized and the coffee is extracted with hot water. Examples of the coffee beans include espresso machine, coffee from a coffee machine for drip coffee And may be a by-product that is left over. Further, the coffee grounds may be the same as coffee grounds, coffee pucks, coffee grounds, and the like. The coffee bean is carbonized more than half through the roasting process of green beans, and unnecessary components such as organic substances are removed along with water during the extraction of coffee, so no additional processing is required. By using a coffee foil, the present invention can produce a high-density foam having uniform micropores and uniform distribution. Also, the coffee bean preferably has a particle size of 200 to 350 mesh.

Therefore, when the activated carbon and the coffee bean are further contained in the foam, the skin irritation can be minimized and the exfoliation effect can be further enhanced.

In the present invention, in order to incorporate the activated carbon or coffee beans into the foam 10, it is preferable to mix the activated carbon and the coffee beans by foaming to foam the foam.

First, the polyvinyl alcohol foam will be described. The PVA resin is mixed with water at a weight ratio of 1: 4 to 5, and heated to 30 to 100 DEG C to obtain a PVA aqueous solution. The corn starch is mixed with the PVA aqueous solution at a weight ratio of 1: 0.1-0.2, and the activated carbon and the coffee bean are mixed with the corn starch-mixed PVA aqueous solution at a ratio of 1: 0.01-0.05: 0.01-0.05 weight ratio . Separately, hexamethylene tetramine is added to water at a weight ratio of 1: 0.3 to 0.4 and heated to obtain an aqueous solution of hexamethylenetetramine. Next, the hexamethylene tetramine aqueous solution is added to the PVA mixed solution of the corn starch, the activated carbon and the coffee bean at a weight ratio of 1: 0.1-0.2, followed by stirring to obtain a mixed aqueous solution. Then, an acidic catalyst such as a 50% aqueous solution of sulfuric acid is added to the mixed aqueous solution at a weight ratio of 1: 0.1 to 0.2, and then the mixture is heated at a temperature of 60 to 80 DEG C for 10 to 30 hours for acetalization to obtain a foam.

The polyurethane foam is mixed with the polyether polyol or the polyester polyol, the activated carbon and the coffee bean at a weight ratio of 1: 0.01 to 0.05: 0.01 to 0.05. Dimethyl aniline as a curing accelerator, N, N'-dimethylcyclohexylamine as an amine catalyst and water as a foaming agent are mixed to about 97% by weight of the mixture at about 1% by weight, respectively, to obtain a first solution. Next, a second liquid containing polyisocyanate is added to the first liquid at a ratio of 1: 1 to 1.5: 1, and the mixture is homogeneously mixed for about 20 to 30 seconds in a blowing machine and foamed. And aged for about 1 to 3 days to obtain the final foamed product.

The production process of the above-mentioned foam is described as an example. It is a matter of course that it is possible to obtain the foam 10 including the activated carbon and the coffee be foil by forming the fine cells through various conventionally known methods, I never do that.

The foam 10 has a hard texture at the time of drying. However, when the foam 10 absorbs water at the time of use, the foam 10 becomes soft and soft again. In addition, the foam 10 having the microcells formed of the PVA foam or the urethane foam can be cut and used regardless of its shape, and the manufacturing cost is low and the productivity is also excellent. In other words, although FIG. 1 shows the foam in the form of a quadrangular prism, the shape of the foam is not limited, and it is advantageous that the user can cut the foam into an appropriate size if necessary.
