  • Table 4 lists the pH values of each example after being placed at 48°C for different times. It is necessary to point out that the hydrolysis of urea will bring two problems to the use of cosmetics: First, the risk of laws and regulations, the allowable range of the pH value of cosmetics such as water preparations, lotions and creams by national regulations is 4.0-8.5. between. Second, the consumer's use experience, it is conceivable that if the sample overflows with ammonia smell, it will seriously affect the consumer's use experience. According to the results of this experiment, if the pH value of the sample is above 7.5, the smell of ammonia can generally be smelled.
  • Example 1 After the 5% urea aqueous solution (Example 1) was placed at 48° C. for 15 days, the pH reached 9.08, and there was a serious overflow of ammonia odor. After that, with the increase of heating time, the pH of the sample still increased slightly, and the pH of the sample reached 9.44 after the stability test in March.

It can be seen that the use of triethyl citrate and glycine compound can play a better role in stabilizing the pH value of the urea aqueous solution. However, after the above two samples were placed at 48°C for March, the pH value of the aqueous solution still increased significantly. After the stability test was completed, the smell of ammonia could be smelled, which still could not fully meet the needs of cosmetic use.

Except for the pH stability effect of Example 5 to Example 7, the pH stability effect was not as good as that of Example 4. After that, the smell of ammonia can be smelled. According to the above comparative test, the stability of glycine to urea aqueous solution is better than that of glutamic acid, arginine and KH 2 PO 4 .

  • the pH values were 8.80, 7.95, 6.81 and 6.29 after being placed at 48°C for 3 months. It can be seen that with the increase of the mass ratio of triethyl citrate to urea, the pH stability of the sample is better. However, high concentrations of triethyl citrate can cause color changes after prolonged heating.
  • Example 8 (triethyl citrate content of 1%) was heated at 48°C for 3 months, and the solution was slightly brown to the naked eye.
  • Example 11 On the basis of Example 3, the amount of triethyl citrate was increased from 0.5% to 1% , after 3 months of heat placement, the pH values of the two samples were 5.95 and 6.18, respectively.

  • Example 4 circumvents the risk of possible thermal instability of a high concentration aqueous solution of triethyl citrate.
  • the cost of glycine is much lower than that of triethyl citrate, the cost of Example 4 is only about 40% of that of Example 10.
  • Example 4 shows a good ability to stabilize the pH aqueous solution, and there is still a large redundancy for the application in cosmetics. If the content of triethyl citrate and glycine can be reduced on the basis of meeting cosmetic application standards, not only can the cost be reduced, but also the impact on the bearing capacity of the emulsion system can be reduced. Examples 12-17 examine the stability of samples with lower triethyl citrate and glycine content to the pH of aqueous urea.

Description

包含柠檬酸三乙酯和甘氨酸的稳定组合物 技术领域
本发明涉及化妆品领域,具体涉及在水解产生氨的水性溶液中实现稳定化作用的包含柠檬酸三乙酯和甘氨酸的稳定组合物以及稳定技术。
背景技术
尿素是一种很好用的保湿成分,它就存在于肌肤的角质层当中,属于肌肤天然保湿因子NMF的主要成分。对肌肤来说,尿素具有保湿以及柔软角质的功效。尿素是皮肤中的天然保湿因子之一,其保湿,软化肌肤,促进经皮渗透等功效已被文献广泛报道。
文献“仪器和皮肤科医生评估甘油和尿素对特应性皮炎患者干性皮肤的影响”(《皮肤研究和技术》,Lodén M.,等)报道了使用含有4%尿素的保湿霜30天后,35位受试者的皮肤电容值平均值从35A.U.上升到了42A.U.(皮肤表层含水量越高,电容值越高)、表皮水分流失量平均值从约11g/(m 2·h)下降到约8,5g/(m 2·h),干燥度总分平均值自3.2下降至0.8,以上实验结果均显著优于未添加尿素的对照组且具有统计学差异,证明了尿素保湿、柔肤、强韧肌肤屏障的功效。
文献“尿素对人表皮、皮肤的影响”(Hellgren等)报道了将干燥后的表皮浸没于10%尿素溶液中,90h基本达到平衡后表皮吸水量接近初始质量的300%,吸水量约等于浸没于蒸馏水中样品的3倍。干燥皮肤吸水量的增加,来自于尿素水溶液提高了表皮的渗透性。
文献“透皮促渗剂对两种锌盐经皮渗透新的影响”(Science Technology and Engineering,2016;16:1671-1815陈传秀,金青,谭然然课题组)研究了尿素对共轭亚油酸锌及葡萄糖酸锌的影响,结果发现,在料体中加入2%尿素,共轭亚油酸锌的单位时间累积渗透量由188.23μg/cm 2上升到了388.04μg/cm 2,葡萄糖酸锌的单位时间累积渗透量由682.26μg/cm 2上升到了 1020.49μg/cm 2,且随着尿素含量的提升渗透速率仍有进一步的提高。
近年来的研究表明,尿素还可通过调控基因表达,达到提高皮肤屏障和抗菌的作用。例如,文献“尿素摄取通过调节表皮基因表达增强人体屏障功能和抗菌防御”(皮肤病研究杂志Susanne G.-B.,(2012)132,1561–1572)报道了尿素可提高与皮肤屏障相关基因AMP、LL-37及β-防卫素-2的表达,并对尿素的作用机理进行了详细的研究。根据研究结果,作者认为并非只是机体代谢产物,而作为一种小分子调节剂,具有修饰皮肤屏障相关基因表达的效果。此外,《尿素和皮肤:一个著名的分子重访》公开了尿素还可以作为药品,应用于牛皮鲜、过敏性皮炎、湿疹、溢脂性皮炎等皮肤疾病的治疗。
但是,尿素水溶液并不稳定,会发生水解反应生成氨,导致其水溶液pH值的上升。而且,随着温度的提高,尿素水解的速度亦相应增加。对于这种现象学术界有大量的理论研究(例如参见,陈侠,白凤霞,庞腾等,ADC废水中尿素的水解动力学研究[J],天津科技大学学报,2019(1),doi:10.13364/j.issn.1672-6510.20170111),并且应用于制氨及相应的生产应用中(例如参见,花立存,吴春华,马文杰等,两种尿素水解制氨技术理论分析及应用对比[J],热力发电,2019,48(11),doi: 10.19666/j.rlfd.201903056)。但是,在化妆品应用中,尿素的水解会导致料体pH升高并且释放氨味,造成化妆品无法满足国家法规标准(pH<8.5),并且造成消费者使用的不适。例如,在本发明测试例1中的实验中,5%尿素水溶液48℃放置7天,其pH值从6.69上升至9.08,并且可闻到明显的氨味。因此,尿素的不稳定性严重限制了其在化妆品中的应用。
本发明意外的发现,在含有尿素等活性剂的水溶液中,联合使用柠檬酸三乙酯和甘氨酸能够明显抑制尿素等活性剂的水解,提高含尿素等活性剂的水溶液的稳定性,尤其是pH稳定性。因此,本发明首次将柠檬酸三乙酯和甘氨酸组合使用,提供了一种新的、稳定性更好的含有尿素等具有保湿作用的活性剂的组合物,其也可以加入皮肤外用剂中实现保湿效果。
发明内容
一方面,本发明提供了包含柠檬酸三乙酯和甘氨酸的稳定组合物,所述组合物为水性溶液,所述水性溶液还包含水解产生氨的活性剂,其中,所述活性剂与柠檬酸三乙酯的重量比为1:1至100:1,所述活性剂与甘氨酸的重量比为1:1至10:1。

发明详述
本发明首次发现将柠檬酸三乙酯和甘氨酸组合使用,能够提供一种稳定性更好的含有尿素等活性剂的组合物。本发明的组合物中尿素等活性剂的水解得到显著的抑制,有利于保持组合物的稳定性,尤其是pH稳定性。
本发明意外地发现,将柠檬酸三乙酯和甘氨酸复配后使用,不仅可以降低柠檬酸三乙酯的用量,而且在改善pH值稳定性之余,还可降低与高浓度的柠檬酸三乙酯的使用相关的不良反应的风险。因此,本发明也涉及一 种稳定化方法,该方法包括联合使用柠檬酸三乙酯和甘氨酸的稳定体系,用于稳定在水溶液中易于发生水解产生氨的组合物。
此外,本发明还提供了一种新的、具有更佳效果的稳定体系,尤其适用于在水溶液中易于发生水解产生氨的组合物。采用本发明的稳定系统得到组合物能够保留活性剂的功能,例如保湿功能。例如,在采用尿素作为活性剂的实施方式中,采用本发明的稳定体系能够实现较高的保湿性能,而单独使用尿素或甘氨酸并未表现出阳性的保湿结果。
为了提供更简明的描述,本文给出的一些数量表述没有用术语“约”修饰。应当理解,无论是否明确地使用了术语“约”,本文所给出的每个量都意在指代实际的给定值,并且还意在指代由本领域的普通技术人员可合理推测出的这些给定值的近似值,包括这些给定值的由实验和/或测量条件所引起的近似值。
为了提供更简洁的描述,本文中一些数量表述被叙述为约X量至约Y量的范围。应当理解,当叙述范围时,该范围并不限制于所叙述的上下界限,而应包括约X量至约Y量的整个范围或它们之间的任何量。
活性剂
本发明的组合物中包含活性剂,例如具有保湿功效的活性剂。在一些优选的实施方式中,本发明的组合物中的活性剂在储存条件下容易发生水解。在一些更优选的实施方式中,本发明的组合物中的活性剂在储存条件下容易发生水解生成氨。例如,在一个具体的实施方式中,本发明的组合物中使用的活性剂是尿素或其衍生物。
尿素是一种很好用的保湿成分,它就存在于肌肤的角质层当中,属于肌肤天然保湿因子NMF的主要成分。对肌肤来说,尿素具有保湿以及柔软角质的功效,所以也能够防止角质层阻塞毛细孔,藉此改善粉刺的问题。尿素常用于面膜、护肤水、膏霜、护手霜等产品中用作保湿成份。
羟乙基尿素作为尿素的羟乙基衍生物,是一种全新的,具有突出优势的保湿剂。与传统的保湿剂相比,羟乙基尿素具有更显著的保湿效果,滑爽的涂敷感觉,在护肤产品中不发粘、不油腻、滋润的舒适感觉,以及自 身非离子性带来的极广泛的适用性。而且与昂贵的保湿剂相比,羟乙基尿素能够以更低的配方成本,来达到相同的效果;即使在以甘油、丙二醇为主的基础配方中,羟乙基尿素也可以通过减少其他影响膏霜外观的组份的用量(如硅油),来达到更佳的保湿效果,更滑爽的涂布感觉,相同甚至更低的配方成本。即使在极端条件,6%相对湿度的情况下,羟乙基尿素也能通过和皮肤角质层形成液晶相,阻止角质层向固体晶相转化,来达到使皮肤柔软的目的。
由于尿素及其衍生物(例如,羟乙基尿素)具有出色的保湿效果和肤感,而且对皮肤和眼睛是安全的,所以它可以被广泛的应用于:护肤品,各种膏霜和乳液;精华液及各种透明产品;沐浴产品;防晒产品;彩妆;脱毛、除臭产品;发用品,例如香波、护发素、头发定型产品、染发产品、者哩水等。
然而,这种活性剂(例如,尿素或其衍生物)的水溶液常常不稳定,容易发生水解而产生氨,导致其水溶液pH值的上升。而且,随着温度的提高,活性剂的水解速度亦相应增加。
本发明首次将柠檬酸三乙酯和甘氨酸进行组合,可以显著抑制活性剂(例如,尿素或其衍生物)的水解,提高产品的稳定性。相对于单纯的活性剂(例如,尿素或其衍生物)的水溶液而言,这种复配的组合物能够保持稳定,保留活性剂的保湿功效。
在本发明的一些实施方式中,组合物包含1-20重量%的活性剂(例如,尿素或其衍生物)。在本发明的一些实施方式中,组合物包含1-10重量%的活性剂(例如,尿素或其衍生物)。在本发明的一些实施方式中,组合物包含5-10重量%的活性剂(例如,尿素或其衍生物)。
柠檬酸三乙酯
柠檬酸三乙酯,化学名称是2-羟基-1,2,3-丙三羧酸三乙酯。柠檬酸三乙酯是一种具有果香的无色液体,在水溶液中具有一定的溶解度。柠檬酸三乙酯具有抗氧化性能,在化妆品中可以用作油脂的稳定剂。此外,因其挥发持久且较缓慢,作为定香剂在化妆品中有广泛应用(例如参见,食用 香精中定香剂的筛选与研究,艾斌,CNKI:CDMD:2.1017.800868)。
柠檬酸三乙酯在水溶液中可缓慢水解生成柠檬酸使其水溶液pH值逐渐降低,因此可以预期,将其与尿素等水解释放氨的活性剂复配,可以抑制活性剂水溶液pH值的上升。
使用柠檬酸三乙酯作为尿素的pH稳定剂已见诸报道。例如,李银汉等(一种长效保湿组合物及其应用,CN109602638A)报道了将尿素同柠檬酸三乙酯、聚丙烯酸增稠剂以及卡波姆复配,部分样品在40℃放置1月后表现出较好的稳定性。然而该尿素复配体系在化妆品应用中仍有诸多局限性。首先,其稳定性测试周期为40℃放置1个月,低于国家化妆品检验法规40℃放置3个月的标准。其次,复配体系的pH稳定性能有限,实施例中大多数样品在低于国家标准的测试条件下依然出现明显的稳定性问题。再次,随着尿素分解导致料体的pH和电导率变化,添加的增稠剂的粘度也会出现明显变化导致料体的性质发生改变。究其原因,在于单独使用柠檬酸三乙酯与尿素复配,其对尿素水溶液pH值缓冲能力有限。如需使尿素水溶液pH值满足化妆品使用的标准,需较大使用量,届时会进一步产生成本高昂、料体变色(详见测试例1),以及化妆品安全性风险。因此,本领域仍然需要开发更高效、更稳定、成本更低廉的稳定体系,该稳定体系尤其适用于在储存条件下容易发生水解生成氨的活性剂,例如尿素及其衍生物。
本发明意外地发现,将柠檬酸三乙酯和甘氨酸进行组合,可以实现协同的稳定作用。相对于单纯的柠檬酸三乙酯,两者复配得到的体系能够更好地稳定容易发生水解产生氨的溶液,例如包含尿素或其衍生物的水溶液。
在本发明的一些实施方式中,本发明组合物包含0.1-10重量%的柠檬酸三乙酯。在本发明的一些实施方式中,组合物包含0.1-5重量%的柠檬酸三乙酯。在本发明的一些实施方式中,组合物包含0.1-1重量%的柠檬酸三乙酯。在本发明的一个具体的实施方式中,组合物包含0.5重量%的柠檬酸三乙酯。
在本发明的一些实施方式中,本发明组合物中活性剂(例如尿素或其衍生物)与柠檬酸三乙酯的重量比为1:1至100:1。在本发明的一些实施方式中,本发明组合物中活性剂(例如尿素或其衍生物)与柠檬酸三乙酯的重量比为 1:1至50:1。在本发明的一些实施方式中,本发明组合物中活性剂(例如尿素或其衍生物)与柠檬酸三乙酯的重量比为1:1至20:1。在本发明的一些实施方式中,本发明组合物中活性剂(例如尿素或其衍生物)与柠檬酸三乙酯的重量比为1:1至10:1。在本发明的一些实施方式中,本发明组合物中活性剂(例如尿素或其衍生物)与柠檬酸三乙酯的重量比为10:1至20:1。
甘氨酸
甘氨酸是二十种常见氨基酸之一,室温下呈现为无味的白色晶体,在水溶液中有着良好的溶解性。在人体中,甘氨酸可以有葡萄糖转化而来,是组成蛋白质的二十种基础氨基酸之一(例如参见,“包含牛磺酸、精氨酸、甘氨酸的个人护理组合物”,CN108430587A)。
甘氨酸在食品、医药、农业中具有广泛的应用,同时也作为多种化工原料或医药的原料和中间体,如头孢菌素的原料,甲砜霉素中间体,合成咪唑乙酸中间体等(例如参见,“添加剂条件下的甘氨酸结晶过程研究及分子模拟”,王禄)。对皮肤护理而言,甘氨酸可以作为皮肤调理剂,可改善皮肤调理能力(例如参见,《化妆品原料手册》,李东光),在化妆品工业中具有良好的应用前景。本发明中利用甘氨酸的酸碱调节能力,维持尿素水溶液的pH值。
本发明意外地发现,将柠檬酸三乙酯和甘氨酸进行组合,可以实现协同的稳定作用。例如,本发明意外地发现,将柠檬酸三乙酯和甘氨酸复配后使用,尿素水溶液的pH值稳定性有了极大地提高,且改善的效果优于单独使用柠檬酸三乙酯或甘氨酸。甘氨酸的引入可降低柠檬酸三乙酯的用量,改善pH值稳定性之余,亦可降低产生不良反应的风险以及降低产品成本。
此外,尿素-柠檬酸三乙酯-甘氨酸复配体系表现出较好的保湿性能,而单独使用尿素或甘氨酸并未表现出阳性的保湿结果,可见原料间产生了良性的相互作用。因此,本发明为护肤品和皮肤医药品提供了新的、具有更佳效果的添加剂的组合,为尿素在护肤品中的安全应用提供了技术支持。
在本发明的一些实施方式中,本发明组合物包含1-20重量%的甘氨酸。在本发明的一些实施方式中,组合物包含1-10重量%的甘氨酸。在本发明 的一些实施方式中,组合物包含1-5重量%的甘氨酸。
在本发明的一些实施方式中,本发明组合物中活性剂(例如尿素或其衍生物)与甘氨酸的重量比为1:1至10:1。在本发明的一些实施方式中,本发明组合物中活性剂(例如尿素或其衍生物)与甘氨酸的重量比为1:1至5:1。在本发明一个具体的实施方式中,本发明组合物中活性剂(例如尿素或其衍生物)与甘氨酸的重量比为1:1。
其他成分
本发明的组合物还可包含其他成分。例如,本发明的组合物还可以包含可能具有催化性能的电解质、过渡金属离子及固体粉末等。在一些实施方式中,本发明的组合物还包含甘氨酸、氯化钠、PCA-Cu、硫酸锌、氧化锌、二氧化硅或它们的组合。
例如,在本发明的测试例中,在存在电解质、过渡金属粒子或固体界面的条件下,组合使用柠檬酸三乙酯和甘氨酸作为含有尿素等活性剂的组合物的稳定体系具有良好的表现,例如水溶液pH稳定且符合要求。这些测试例也进一步说明了本发明的稳定体系具有广泛的适用性。因此,本发明的组合物中可以包含化妆品领域可接受的各种成分。

以上实施例中各组分的用量单位均为g。
上述实施例可分为四组:
(1)实施例1-实施例4:尿素本底,单独使用柠檬酸三乙酯或甘氨酸, 及柠檬酸三乙酯与甘氨酸复配后的使用效果比较。
(2)实施例4-实施例7:甘氨酸与其它氨基酸,以及常用缓冲剂磷酸二氢钾使用效果比较。
(3)实施例8-实施例17:不同柠檬酸三乙酯以及甘氨酸配比对尿素水溶液pH值的影响。
(4)实施例18-实施例22:固定柠檬酸三乙酯和甘氨酸的含量,考察电解质,过度金属离子,固体粉末对尿素水溶液pH值的影响。
由于尿素、柠檬酸三乙酯、甘氨酸良好的溶解性,绝大多数样品仅需振摇几次即可完全溶解,形成透明澄清溶液。例外的包括,实施例19由于添加了铜盐而呈现深蓝色,实施例21和22因加入了非水溶性的粉末而呈现为悬浊液。
绝大多数样品配置后的pH在4.0至7之间,配置后无须调整pH值。然而实施例6和实施例21因加入了碱性成分使pH值高于6.5,而加入柠檬酸调节pH值。实施例6制备后溶液pH值为11.21,加入柠檬酸后pH值为5.67;实施例21制备后pH值为7.23,加入少量柠檬酸调节pH值为5.80。
测试例1:高温稳定性考察
称取实施例1-22样品50g,加入PET密封塑瓶中,置入48℃烘箱放置3月。定期将PET密封瓶从冰箱中取出,冷却后观察样品性状并测定其pH值。
表4显示了各实施例的样品于48℃放置不同时间的pH值及样品性状的变化。

表4列出了各实施例在48℃放置不同时间后的pH值。有必要指出,尿素的水解会为化妆品的使用带来两方面的问题:其一,法律法规风险,国家法规对国家法规对水剂、乳液及膏霜等化妆品pH值的允许范围在4.0-8.5之间。其二,消费者使用感受,可以想象,倘若样品溢出氨味,会严重影响消费者的使用感受。根据本次实验结果,若样品pH值达到7.5以上,则普遍能闻出氨味。
5%尿素水溶液(实施例1)在48℃放置15天后,pH即达到9.08,并且有严重的氨味溢出。此后,随着加热时间的增长,样品pH仍然有小幅度的上升,在3月稳定性测试后样品pH达到9.44。向尿素水溶液加入0.5%柠檬酸三乙酯(实施例2)或5%甘氨酸(实施例3)之后,尿素水溶液pH上升的趋势得到了显著的抑制。以上两样品,在48℃加热3月后pH值分别为8.80与7.70,且各时间点样品pH都低于尿素水溶液的pH值。可见,使用柠檬酸三乙酯与甘氨酸复配,可以对尿素水溶液pH值起到较好的稳定作用。然而,以上两样品经过3月48℃放置后,水溶液pH值仍有比较明显的上涨,在稳定性测试完毕后,可嗅出氨味,依然无法完全满足化妆品的使用的需要。将0.5%的柠檬酸三乙酯与5%的甘氨酸复配后(实施例4),尿素水溶液pH稳定性有了进一步提升,48℃放置3月后,样品的pH仅上 升至6.18,且完全没有氨味溢出,满足化妆品应用的需要。以上实验可知,柠檬酸三乙酯和甘氨酸都有稳定尿素水溶液pH值的作用,而将两者复配后其稳定效应更强。
实施例4-实施例7比较了甘氨酸、谷氨酸、精氨酸与KH 2PO 4对尿素水溶液的pH稳定能力。经过3个月的48℃放置,四份样品的pH值依次为6.18、8.04、7.69与8.12,实施例5-实施例7除pH稳定性效果不及实施例4之外,在放置2到3月后,均可嗅出氨味。根据以上对比试验可知,甘氨酸对尿素水溶液的稳定性,优于谷氨酸、精氨酸以及KH 2PO 4
实施例8-实施例10考察了柠檬酸三乙酯的用量对尿素水溶液的稳定能力。对5%尿素水溶液,添加0.5%、1%、2%及5%尿素后,48℃放置3月后pH值依次为8.80、7.95、6.81和6.29。可见,随柠檬酸三乙酯与尿素质量比的增加,样品的pH稳定性越好。但是,高浓度的柠檬酸三乙酯在长时间加热后,会产生颜色的变化。实施例8(柠檬酸三乙酯含量1%)在48℃加热3月后,肉眼可以分辨溶液呈现出略微的棕色,当柠檬酸三乙酯含量继续提高至2%(实施例9)与5%时(实施例10),48℃加热后可以分辨出明显的棕色。高浓度柠檬酸三乙酯水溶液在长时间加热后的不稳定性,会影响化妆品的观感,不利于其在生产中的实际应用。
柠檬酸三乙酯含量对尿素水溶液pH影响的趋势在和甘氨酸复配样品中亦有体现,实施例11在实施例3的基础上,将柠檬酸三乙酯的用量自0.5%提升至1%,经过3月热放置,两份样品的pH值分别为5.95与6.18。值得一提的是,实施例4(0.5%柠檬酸三乙酯+5%甘氨酸)与实施例10(5%柠檬酸三乙酯)对尿素水溶液pH稳定能力相仿。与此同时,实施例4规避了高浓度柠檬酸三乙酯水溶液可能的热不稳定的风险。此外需要一提的是,因甘氨酸的成本远低于柠檬酸三乙酯,实施例4的成本仅为实施例10的40%左右。
实施例4表现出了良好的稳定pH水溶液能力,且对于化妆品中的应用尚有较大冗余。如能在满足化妆品应用标准的基础上降低柠檬酸三乙酯和甘氨酸的含量,除可降低成本之外,亦能减少对乳化体系承载能力的冲击。实施例12-实施例17考察了较低柠檬酸三乙酯和甘氨酸含量的样品对尿素 水溶液pH的稳定性能。固定柠檬酸三乙酯含量为0.5%时,甘氨酸含量为5%(实施例4)、2.5%(实施例12)、1%(实施例13)和0.5%(实施例14)样品48℃放置3月后的pH值分别为6.18、6.73、7.40和8.25。除了实施例14,其它三分样品在三月稳定性测试后均未闻到氨味溢出。固定甘氨酸含量为2.5%时,柠檬酸三乙酯用量为0.5%(实施例12)、0.2%(实施例15)、0.1%(实施例16)和0.05%(实施例17)的样品48℃放置3月后pH值分别为6.73、7.12、7.46和7.66,且各样品均未闻到氨味溢出。以上实验结果表明,柠檬酸三乙酯和甘氨酸含量的增加能够增强尿素水溶液的pH稳定性。且在实施例4的基础上,在满足化妆品使用要求的前提下,柠檬酸三乙酯和甘氨酸的添加量具有一定下调空间。
实施例18-实施例22考察了可能具有催化性能的电解质、过渡金属离子及固体粉末对尿素稳定体系的影响。经过3个月48℃放置后,在实施例4基础上添加2%氯化钠(实施例18)、PCA-Cu(实施例19)、硫酸锌(实施例20)、氧化锌粉末(实施例21)和二氧化硅粉末(实施例22)样品的pH值分别为5.90、6.05、6.01、6.42和6.09。以上实验结果表明,在存在电解质、过渡金属粒子或固体界面的条件下,柠檬酸三乙酯和甘氨酸复配的尿素水溶液pH稳定体系依然具有良好的表现,表明该体系具有广泛的实用性。然而,需要指出的是,实施例21经过3月48℃放置后,添加的氧化锌固体完全溶解,转变为透明澄清溶液。其原因在于,尿素分解释放的NH 3或NH 4 +与Zn发生络合,使后者转变为可溶性的锌氨络离子,从而使固体溶解。如将本文报道的尿素水溶液稳定体系与具有形成水溶性氨络合物的金属固体粉末复配需加以特别的关注。
测试例2:保湿性能考察
(1)志愿者选取:选取10名手前臂部位无明显疤痕、无明显干燥脱屑及色素沉着的18-60岁健康成年人作为受试者。
(2)描点及分组:对手前臂部位进行描点和分组,每个志愿者描点面积为2×4cm 2,实验共分6组:空白组、实施例1组、5%甘氨酸组、实施例3组、实施例4组、实施例12组。

由表5和表6可知,在测试的6小时内,空白区域在各个时间测试点与基础值相比仅有略微变化。尿素水溶液(实施例1)涂布后,各时间点的皮肤含水量相比基础值有一定下降,但尚不具备统计学意义。甘氨酸水溶液涂布后,皮肤表面含水量在各个测试点相比基础值都有大幅度下降,且具备统计学意义。尽管尿素和甘氨酸普遍被认为具有保湿功效,但我们的 实验结果表明并非简单涂布其水溶液就能够起到理想的保湿效果。造成该现象的原因可能在于尿素与甘氨酸晶体的析出,在样品涂布待水分蒸发后,肉眼可观察到皮肤表面有细微晶体附着,晶体析出影响了其渗透以及被皮肤吸收利用,并且可能对仪器的测试值产生干扰。
将尿素与柠檬酸三乙酯复配后(实施例3),样品的保湿效能相比尿素水溶液出现明显改观。在1h、4h、6h的测试点,相比于基础值皮肤表面含水量分别上升了6.00,4.10与4.86,其中第一个点相比空白样具有统计学差异。尿素、柠檬酸三乙酯、甘氨酸以10:1:10质量比复配的实施例4,在几个测试时间点的表皮含水量都只有略微提高,并不具有统计学意义。然而,调整三者的质量比为10:1:5时,在三个测试时间点内,皮肤表面含水量相比于基础值分别上升了5.43、2.58与2.63,其中第一个数据相比空白样具有统计学差异。以上实验结果表明,将尿素、柠檬酸三乙酯、甘氨酸以合适的比例复配后,可以表现出显著优于尿素和甘氨酸水溶液的保湿效果,且三者的配比对于其保湿效果的发挥有具有明显的影响。

Figure PCTCN2021128552-appb-000008
实施例24-28的稳定性测试结果如表9所示。基质配方(实施例24)外观呈现为白色软霜(粘度自8000mPa·s至20000mPa·s),并且在三月高温经时稳定性测试中保持稳定,不论其性状抑或pH值均基本保持稳定。在基质配方基础上加入5%尿素的样品(实施例25),其新制样品性能与基质配方并无明显差异。但在高温稳定性测试中,仅仅15天料体pH值即上升至9.00,此后随时间进一步上升,在3月稳定性测试后上升至9.26。此外,从一月稳定性测试开始,料体即开始散发氨味,并且随时间推演不断加剧,三月经时稳定性样品的氨味已相当刺鼻。以上实验结果标明,向基质配方中直接添加尿素,无法满足化妆品法规及消费者使用的基本要求。此外,料体在稳定性测试中出现了增稠的现象,自15天经时稳定性测试开始,样品即从白色软霜转变为白色膏霜(粘度自2000mPa·s至50000mPa·s),其原因可能来自于碱性条件下阳离子表面活性剂胶束结构的重构。在基质配方基础上加入5%尿素及0.5%柠檬酸三乙酯的样品(实施例26),其新制样品与基础配方亦无明显差异,但在经时稳定性测试中,其pH表现出明 显上升趋势,三月稳定性测试后料体pH值上升至8.92,并且散发出明显氨味。该样品在三月高温经时稳定性测试后,出现了破乳,分层的现象,不满足国家化妆品法规的相关要求。此外,该样品在高温经时测试中,料体的增稠情况严重,在一月稳定性观察中表现为白色膏霜,而在二三月稳定性观察中表现为白色厚质膏霜(粘度大于50000mPa·s),料体性状的极明显变化亦对化妆品在使用期间的一致性造成负面影响。在基质配方基础上加入5%尿素及5%甘氨酸样品(实施例27),其新制样品与基础配方无明显差异,但在经时稳定性测试中,其pH表现出单调上升趋势,三月稳定性测试后料体pH值上升至7.49,满足化妆品法规的需求,但是该样品在三月稳定性测试后可嗅出氨味,可能影响消费者对于产品的使用感受。总而言之,该样品能够大致满足法规及消费者的要求,然而接近临界配比,可能因为配方批次差异出现质量问题。
在基质配方基础上加入5%尿素、0.5%柠檬酸三乙酯及5%甘氨酸样品(实施例28),其新制样品与基础配方无明显差异,但在经时稳定性测试中,其pH表现先下降再上升(最初15天pH下降可能来源于阳离子胶束的重构),最终pH值为6.21,距离国家化妆品的法规尚有较大冗余,且未能察觉到氨味,满足消费者对化妆品使用的需求。尽管其料体粘度出现了小幅度上升,从白色软膏转变为白色膏霜,但粘度有所上升的趋势不易导致产品的质量问题,且变化幅度有限,对膏霜类产品不易被消费者感知。根据以上实验结果可以推论,将尿素与柠檬酸三乙酯及甘氨酸复配后,应用于化妆品实际配方中亦显著高于单独添加尿素,或者仅与甘氨酸或柠檬酸三乙酯复配的样品。
实施例29-32:羟乙基脲缓冲体系样品的制备
按表10所示的重量称取适量原料,加入50ml规格的PET密封塑瓶中,称取适量去离子水,加入PET密封塑瓶,将PET密封塑瓶封口后,振摇直至固体完全溶解。待固体完全溶解混合均匀后,测定样品pH值,如初始pH值高于7,则加入柠檬酸溶液使样品pH值达到6左右。

表11
Figure PCTCN2021128552-appb-000010
表11列出了各实施例在48℃放置不同时间后的pH值。因羟乙基脲原料的pH值较高,实施例29和30配置后pH值分别为8.49和7.09,故加入柠檬酸对pH值进行调节,调节后以上两实施例的初始pH值分别为6.05和5.29(少量柠檬酸加入即极大改变样品pH值)。而实施例31与32的初始pH值在7以下,故在高温放置前未对其pH值加以调节。5%羟乙基脲水溶液(实施例29)在高温经时稳定性测试中pH有明显上升,15天上升至8.61,3月稳定性测试结束后达到了9.19,超过了国家化妆品法规许可的标准,并且从60天起能够闻到氨味。单独加入0.5%柠檬酸三乙酯(实施例30)或5%甘氨酸(实施例31)样品,在三月经时稳定性测试后pH分别为7.76及8.02,尽管满足法规标准,但pH明显改变可能影响料体的性状或添加剂的稳定性。相比之下,同时加入柠檬酸三乙酯与甘氨酸后(实施例32),样品的高温稳定性得到进一步提升,90天稳定性测试后,料体pH值仅从 5.49小幅上升至5.85。可见,将柠檬酸三乙酯和甘氨酸同时与羟乙基脲复配后,羟乙基脲水溶液的稳定性能够得到显著提升。
