Description

PERSONAL CARE COMPOSITION

[0001] The present invention relates to a personal care composition. In particular, the present invention relates to a personal care composition containing: a vehicle; a cosmetically acceptable oil; and a cationic polymer comprising structural units of acrylamide monomer; structural units of N,N-dimethyl acrylamide monomer; and structural units of a monoethylenically unsaturated monocationic monomer; wherein the cationic polymer comprises < 10 mol % of structural units of multiethylenically unsaturated cationic monomer; wherein the cationic polymer comprises < 30 wt% of structural units of ester containing monomers; wherein the cationic polymer comprises < 1 mol% of structural units of ethylenically unsaturated monomers containing an acid moiety selected from the group consisting of a carboxylic acid and a sulfonic acid; and wherein the personal care composition comprises < 0.05 wt% of water soluble, organic, ampholytic polymer conditioning agent.

[0002] Deposition of moisturizers is of particular interest for various personal care compositions. In particular, there is interest for personal care cleansers (e.g., body wash, face wash, hand wash) that provide moisturizing benefits in addition to cleaning benefits.

[0003] Skin cleansing has become an ubiquitous component of personal hygiene.

Cleansing of the skin facilitates the removal of dirt, germs and other things that are perceived as harmful to the skin or the individual. Cleansing formulations typically including a surfactant to promote the removal of materials deposited on the skin.

Unfortunately, the cleansing formulations remove both undesirable and desirable materials from the skin. For example, cleansing formulations frequently undesirably remove oils from the skin, which oils operate to protect the skin from loss of moisture. Removal of too much oil from the skin may leave the skin vulnerable to becoming dry. One solution to this skin drying concern is the selection of mild surfactants. Another approach is to incorporate additives that help replace the oils removed through deposition; however, this approach has proven difficult in implementation, particularly in rinse off applications.

[0004] An approach to enhancing the deposition of materials on the skin is disclosed in United States Patent Application Publication No. 20100247472 to Sau. Sau disclose an aqueous personal care composition comprising a conditioner and a polymer functionalized with an amino group, wherein the amino group is pendant and the polymer functionalized with an amino group has the following structure:

and, wherein the polymer comprises a natural, semisynthetic or synthetic polymer; X comprises an oxygen, nitrogen or sulfur atom, or a polyalkylene oxide group; Y comprises a bivalent polyalkylene or substituted bivalent polyalkylene moiety; Ri and R2 may be the same or different and comprise hydrogen, C1-20 alkyl, C1-20 aryl or C1-20 alkyl(aryl) group; n comprises an integer between 0 and 10; Z comprises a counter anion, and wherein the conditioner is selected from the group consisting of cationic surfactants, cationic polymers, nucleic acids, lipids, silicones, hydrocarbon oil, fatty esters and combinations thereof.

[0005] While conventionally used deposition aids such as soluble cationic modified celluloses (e.g., PQ-10), guar hydroxypropyl tri ammonium chloride and its derivatives (e.g., PQ-6, PQ-7) provide a certain level of oil deposition in personal care cleansers; they nevertheless exhibit low efficiency necessitating a relatively high oil incorporation into the personal care cleanser formulation to facilitate desired skin moisturization. Such high oil levels, however, detrimentally effect the foam/lathery in use consumer feel of the formulation.

[0006] Accordingly, there remains a need for personal care compositions that facilitate moisturization while maintaining desirable in use consumer feel.

[0007] The present invention provides a personal care composition, comprising: a vehicle; a cosmetically acceptable oil; and a cationic polymer comprising: (a) 1 to 98 wt% of structural units of acrylamide monomer; (b) 1 to 98 wt% of structural units of N,N-dimethyl acrylamide monomer; and (c) 1 to < 30 wt% of structural units of a monoethylenically unsaturated monocationic monomer; wherein the cationic polymer comprises > 65 wt% of structural units of (a) and (b) combined; wherein the cationic polymer comprises < 10 mol % of structural units of multiethylenically unsaturated cationic monomer; wherein the cationic polymer comprises < 30 wt% of structural units of ester containing monomers; wherein the cationic polymer comprises < 1 mol% of structural units of ethylenically unsaturated monomers containing an acid moiety selected from the group consisting of a carboxylic acid and a sulfonic acid; and wherein the personal care composition comprises < 0.05 wt% of a water soluble, organic, ampholytic polymer conditioning agent.

[0008] The present invention provides a method of using a personal care composition, comprising: providing a personal care composition of the present invention; and applying the personal care composition to at least one of a skin and hair. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0038] Some embodiments of the present invention will now be described in detail in the following Examples.

Examples S1-S5: Synthesis of Cationic Polymer

[0039] A cationic polymer was prepared in a one-liter round bottom flask equipped with a mechanical overhead stirrer, a heating mantle, a thermocouple, a condenser and inlets for addition of monomer, initiator and nitrogen. The flask was charged with 223 g of deionized water. The stirrer was energized, a nitrogen purge through the vapor space in the flask was started and the temperature set point for the heating mantel was set at 75 °C.

[0040] In a 500 mL graduated cylinder was prepared a monomer mixture by adding 121.0 g of deionized water; A g of a 50 wt% solution of acrylamide in deionized water; B g of N,N-dimethyl acrylamide; and C g of a 70 wt% solution of 3-acrylamidopropyltrimethyl ammonium chloride in deionized water as noted in TABLE 1. The contents of the graduated cylinder were mixed until uniform.

[0041] In a separate container was prepared a co-feed catalyst by adding 2.29 g of Vazo-56 and 19.6 g of deionized water.

[0042] When the contents of the flask reached 75 °C, the co-feed catalyst was added to the flask at a rate of 0.16 g/min for 137 minutes. Two minutes following the start of the co-feed catalyst, the monomer mixture was added to the flask over a period of 120 minutes.

[0043] Following completion of the feeds to the flask, 15.3 g of deionized water was added as a rinse and the flask contents were held for 30 minutes at 75 °C. During this hold, a chase promoter of a 4.3 g solution of 0.15 wt% iron sulfate heptahydrate with versene was prepared. A chase activator solution of 0.64 g of isoascorbic acid dissolved in 8.91 g of deionized water was prepared. A chase catalyst solution of 1 g of 70 wt% ieri-butyl hydroperoxide in 8.6 g of deionized water was prepared. Following the 30 minute hold, the heating mantle was removed and the flask contents were allowed to cool. When the flask contents reached 70 °C, the chase promoter solution was added as a shot to the flask contents. The chase activator solution and the chase catalyst solution were then added to the flask contents separately by syringe pump at a rate of 0.32 g/minute over 30 minutes.

[0044] When cooled to 25 °C, the flask contents were transferred to a plastic jar and characterized for solids. The results are provided in TABLE 1.

TABLE 1

[0045] The product polymers were then analyzed for molecular weight. Each product polymer sample was prepared in a GPC mobile phase at 1 mg/mL based on supplied wt% solids. Each sample was shaken for at least two (2) hours on a horizontal shaker at ambient temperature to facilitate the dissolution process. Each sample was then filtered using a 0.45 pm PVDF filter into an autosampler vial before injection. No resistance was observed during the filtration process for any of the samples.

[0046] The GPC instrument setup consisted of a Waters Alliance 2690 Separation Module (degasser, pump, autosampler and column oven) and a Wyatt Optilab UT-rEX refractive index detector (RI). A Waters e-SAT/IN module was used to translate analog signals from the RI detector to digital signals for data collection. Empower 3 was used for data acquisition and process.

[0047] The GPC conditions were as noted in TABLE 2 and the average weight average molecular weight, Mw, and the average number average molecular weight, M_N, of two replicate samples of each of the product polymers are reported in TABLE 3.

TABLE 3

Comparative Examples C1-C6 and Examples 1-2: Personal Care Composition

[0048] Personal care compositions were prepared in each of Comparative Examples Cl- C6 and Examples 1-2 by combining the components in the amounts listed in TABLE 4.

TABLE 4

Performance Testing

[0049] The personal care composition from each of Comparative Examples C1-C6 and Examples 1-2 were titrated to a pH of 6.5 with triethanolamine. The final compositions were then applied to a Vitro-Skin^® advanced testing substrate (available from IMS Inc.) using a cot covered finger. The treated substrates were then rinsed with deionized water and evaluated for deposition of oil onto the substrate. Eight replicate samples were prepared for each of the personal care compositions. The following procedure was used: (a) Vitro-Skin^® advanced testing substrate was cut into 4 cm x 4 cm pieces; (b) Each test substrate was weighted; (c) Using a 1 mL HSW syringe (Henke Saas Wolf GmbH), a 0.2 mL sample of the personal care composition was deposited onto the rough side of the test substrate; (d) Using a cot covered finger, the deposited personal care composition was then rubbed on the substrate for about 15 seconds; (e) Each test substrate was weighted again following treatment with the personal care composition; (f) Each treated substrate was set aside for 20 seconds before rinsing with water; (g) Each treated substrate was then rinsed with water at a flow rate of 1 L/min with a water temperature of 32 to 38 °C. The rough surface (surface on which the personal care composition was applied) faced the flow of rinse water at a 45 ⁰ angle, 5 to 10 cm from the faucet outlet for 15 seconds; (h) Each rinsed substrate was then placed in a clean tray with the treated surface facing up and left to dry for an hour before proceeding with an oil deposition analysis.

Oil Deposition Analysis

[0050] The mineral oil deposition on Vitro-Skin^® advanced testing substrate was quantified by gas chromatography (GC) analysis.

[0051] Sample preparation: Each rinsed skin deposition sample (one piece of 4 cm X 4 cm) was then placed in a 20 mL vial filled with hexane. Samples were then shaken for - 1.5 hours on a shaker. The solution phase in each vial was then filtered through a 0.2 pm nylon PTFE syringe filter prior to analysis by 2D-GC/MS.

[0052] 2D-GC/MS condition: An Agilent 7890B GC equipped with a flame ionization detector (FID) was used for the analysis of mineral oil. The GC conditions are listed below in TABLE 5.

TABLE 5

[0053] The external calibration was applied for obtaining the response factor of mineral oil (Lilac^® highly refined mineral oil from Sonnebom, LLC). Mineral oil standards were prepared in hexane with the concentration range of 1 to 200 mg/L. Mineral oil contains a mixture of hydrocarbons exhibiting numerous peaks when analyzed by one dimension GC. To quantify the amount of mineral oil deposited on the Vitro-Skin^® advanced testing substrates, the most abundant hydrocarbon C16 peak was cut to the second dimension GC column and the signal for the Cl 6 peak from the second dimension detector (MSD) was used for quantification.

[0054] The percent deposition of mineral oil was calculated using the equation below:

Deposition % = (( (W x mineral oil wt% )/v )/C ) wherein Deposition % is the wt% of mineral oil from the applied formulation remaining on the Vitro-Skin^® advanced testing substrate; wherein C is the concentration of mineral oil in the extraction solvent measured by 2D-GC/MS in mg/mL; wherein W is the weight of formulation applied onto the Vitro-Skin^® advanced testing substrate in mg; wherein mineral oil wt% is the concentration of mineral oil in the formulation applied in wt%; and wherein v is the volume of hexane added into the formulation applied in mL. The results are provided in TABLE 6.
