Definitions
- the invention relates to a water in oil emulsifier composition which may be used in applications such as cosmetics.
- Water in oil (W/O) emulsions especially high inner phase content water in oil emulsions are well known for their special skin sensory, water resistance and skin moisturizing properties.
- To prepare a water in oil emulsion the common method is to add water phase gradually into oil phase while stirring. If all the water phase and all the oil phase are directly mixed and then homogenized, a water in oil emulsion will not be available, even the time for homogenization is extended. Compared with the preparation process of oil in water emulsion that just needs to add oil phase into water phase in one-step and stir, this method costs more time and needs extra facilities. To some extent, the application and promotion of water in oil emulsions are blocked by such equipment requirement.
- the objective of the present invention is to overcome as least part of the defects of the prior art.
- the term “one-step” means mixing of a water phase and an oil phase without stirring or agitation in preparation of a W/O emulsion, i.e., before homogenization to obtain a W/O emulsion, the water phase and the oil phase may be directly mixed together without stirring or agitation.
- the water phase can be poured into the oil phase directly without stirring.
- the oil phase can also be added to the water phase which is also not possible with the standard process. Then the obtained mixture may be homogenized to obtain a W/O emulsion. In this case, time can be saved and facility can be simplified.
- an emulsifier composition specifically a W/O emulsifier composition, comprising:
- a co-emulsifier wherein the co-emulsifier is an ester formed by a polyether polyol or polyol with a C1-C22 fatty acid, and has an HLB value from 4 to 13; and optionally

- (C) A particle selected from silica particles and metal salts of a fatty acid with 8-22 carbon atoms.
- the emulsifier composition may comprise the primary emulsifier and the co-emulsifier only, or comprise the primary emulsifier, the co-emulsifier and the additional emulsifier ingredient only, or comprise the primary emulsifier, the co-emulsifier and the particle only, or comprise the primary emulsifier, the co-emulsifier, the additional emulsifier ingredient and the particle only.
- HLB value throughout the present invention is determined according to the method of Griffin according to Griffin, W.C. : Classification of surface active agents by HLB, J. Soc. Cosmet. Chem. 1, 1949.

- a stable W/O emulsion can be prepared conveniently with a simple process and a simple equipment, in particular same process and equipment as O/W emulsion preparation.
- the emulsion is stable means that the emulsion does not break nor separate by visual inspection under storage conditions particularly: 1) storage at 45°C for at least 1 months; 2) storage at 25°C for at least 3 month; and 3) freeze/thaw cycle: -15°C/RT (room temperature, between 20-25°C) for 3 cycles with a 24h interval between two cycles.

Description
The invention relates to a water in oil emulsifier composition which may be used in applications such as cosmetics.
Background art
Water in oil (W/O) emulsions, especially high inner phase content water in oil emulsions are well known for their special skin sensory, water resistance and skin moisturizing properties. To prepare a water in oil emulsion, the common method is to add water phase gradually into oil phase while stirring. If all the water phase and all the oil phase are directly mixed and then homogenized, a water in oil emulsion will not be available, even the time for homogenization is extended. Compared with the preparation process of oil in water emulsion that just needs to add oil phase into water phase in one-step and stir, this method costs more time and needs extra facilities. To some extent, the application and promotion of water in oil emulsions are blocked by such equipment requirement.
Summary of the invention
The objective of the present invention is to overcome as least part of the defects of the prior art.
The inventors have surprisingly found a new W/O emulsifier composition which enables preparation of a stable W/O emulsion in just one-step. As used herein, the term “one-step” means mixing of a water phase and an oil phase without stirring or agitation in preparation of a W/O emulsion, i.e., before homogenization to obtain a W/O emulsion, the water phase and the oil phase may be directly mixed together without stirring or agitation. Unlike the standard process of adding water phase gradually into oil phase while stirring, with the new emulsifier, the water phase can be poured into the oil phase directly without stirring. Alternatively, the oil phase can also be added to the water phase which is also not possible with the standard process. Then the obtained mixture may be homogenized to obtain a W/O emulsion. In this case, time can be saved and facility can be simplified.
According to one aspect of the present invention, it provides an emulsifier composition, specifically a W/O emulsifier composition, comprising:
(A) A primary emulsifier selected from alkyl and polyether modified polysiloxane emulsifiers, wherein the primary emulsifier has an HLB value of less than 12, for example 2-12, preferably from 2-9;
(B) A co-emulsifier, wherein the co-emulsifier is an ester formed by a polyether polyol or polyol with a C1-C22 fatty acid, and has an HLB value from 4 to 13; and optionally
(B’) An additional emulsifier ingredient selected from di-or polycarboxylates optionally containing hydroxyl groups, sulfated or sulfonated or phosphate carboxylates, malonates, malates, succinates, sulfosuccinates, citrates, tartrates in which the acid groups have been partially esterified with aliphatic or aromatic, linear or branched, optionally unsaturated and/or hydroxyl-functionalized alcohols or polyols with a chain length of from 6 to 22 carbon atoms; and optionally
(C) A particle selected from silica particles and metal salts of a fatty acid with 8-22 carbon atoms.
The emulsifier composition may comprise the primary emulsifier and the co-emulsifier only, or comprise the primary emulsifier, the co-emulsifier and the additional emulsifier ingredient only, or comprise the primary emulsifier, the co-emulsifier and the particle only, or comprise the primary emulsifier, the co-emulsifier, the additional emulsifier ingredient and the particle only.
The HLB value throughout the present invention is determined according to the method of Griffin according to Griffin, W.C. : Classification of surface active agents by HLB, J. Soc. Cosmet. Chem. 1, 1949.
The term particles as used in context of the present invention means solid (at 25 ℃) particles that are contained in solid form in the emulsifier composition according to the present invention.
The term fatty acid in the context of the present invention preferably means straight or branched, saturated or unsaturated aliphatic carboxylic acids which may be hydroxyl-substituted.
The emulsifier composition can be used for preparation of a stable W/O emulsion in one-step (and may be called as “one-step W/O emulsifier composition” ) . With the emulsifier composition, the water phase and all the oil phase can be directly mixed together and then homogenized to prepare a stable W/O emulsion. Using the emulsifier composition, a stable W/O emulsion can be prepared conveniently with a simple process and a simple equipment, in particular same process and equipment as O/W emulsion preparation.
According to the present invention, the emulsion is stable means that the emulsion does not break nor separate by visual inspection under storage conditions particularly: 1) storage at 45℃ for at least 1 months; 2) storage at 25℃ for at least 3 month; and 3) freeze/thaw cycle: -15℃/RT (room temperature, between 20-25℃) for 3 cycles with a 24h interval between two cycles.

8g Cetyl PEG/PPG-10/1 dimethicone and 0.2g Glyceryl Stearate; PEG-100 Stearate were mixed together in a beaker, 2g Magnesium Stearate was added into the mixture. The beaker with all ingredients was put on a 100℃ hot-board and stirred, then the mixture was homogenized under 10000 rpm for 5min to obtain a one-step W/O emulsifier composition.
Preparation of W/O emulsion:
2.55g one-step W/O emulsifier composition was added into a beaker, 25g white oil was added.
