The present application claims all benefits accruing under 35 U.S.C. §365(c) from the PCT International Application PCT/EP2010/053029, with an International Filing Date of Mar. 10, 2010, which claims the benefit of Indian patent application No. 511/KOL/2009 filed in the Indian Patent Office on Mar. 23, 2009, which claims the priority the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference.
The present invention relates to a stable highly viscous aminosilicone polymeric fluid and in particular, relates to a process for the synthesis of stable high viscosity amino silicone emulsion involving the said aminosilicone polymeric fluid by way of a simple and cost-effective manufacturing process that would not require the involvement of complex machine and thus can be readily used for making emulsion in large scale commercial process with a particle sizes from 0.01 micron to 150 micron for diverse applications such as in personal care, specially hair care, textile, release and alike.
Importantly, the process is directed to be easily adapted for high viscous amino silicone emulsion production for diverse beneficial end use in personal care, specially in hair care; textiles; home care, release and alike applications. More importantly, the silicone emulsion produced by way of the process of the present invention is in the range from 0.01 micron to 150 micron (D50 value) with a very narrow particle size distribution which is highly stable and found to have consolidated advantageous and beneficial use in personal care, textile softener, different release applications, in fabric care, paper coating and other application and is not limited to the said applications.
It is well known to provide amino silicone emulsions with varying particle sizes to suit different end applications and uses.
Amino silicone and an emulsion of amino silicone has been in use for different end use applications with certain benefits especially in textiles for softener, in conditioners for hair care, in PU release. It is also well known to use amino silicone emulsion in such application with a limited to specific application in textiles, personal care, release, and not limited to said applications.
Today globally silicone in personal care, especially in hair care formulations has become essential as a performance ingredient in the said products by the way of its presence in small amount within the formulations. In accordance with the market demand and competition, cosmetic manufacturers are using different kinds of silicone products with different functionalities in such formulations to optimize the product effects. As a result of such large variety of formulation, product complexity also increases with use of multi silicone components in the formulation. In the categories of different silicone emulsions, most popular category of silicone emulsions, like dimethicone or dimethiconol or vinyldimethicone or vinyldimethiconol or mixture of these components are used in different hair care applications. Most important part of these silicone emulsions is the availability in different variants as per formulation requirements with variation of particle sizes from 0.02 micron to 50 micron, with different oil viscosities from few hundred to few million cps and wherein such emulsions can be made by simple stirring or homogenizing either by mechanical process or emulsion polymerization process. Application of these emulsions are only limited to specific beneficial attributes like silkiness, softness, reduced wet & dry combing force in 2-in-1 shampoo but are not so effective to improve the shine on hair. This dimethicone or dimethiconol or vinyldimethicone or vinyldimethiconol emulsion/s are not able to deliver even above said conditioning properties in anti dandruff shampoo and needs another additional silicone emulsion of different functionality like amodimethicone (amino silicone emulsion) in the formulation of different categories of conditioners to optimize on the conditioning effects. Another big disadvantage of dimethicone or dimethiconol or vinyldimethicone or vinyldimethiconol emulsion/s in case of shampoo formulations is that about 80% silicone is washed off while rinsing the hair in water with a maximum of 20% silicone deposition on hair. It is thus wastage of silicone, down-the-drain to pollute the environment.
Due to the lack of awareness, hair is exposed many rigorous and damaging chemical and physical processes during its lifetime. Hair damage results change in feel, appearance & physical properties of the hair and negative impact on the consumers satisfaction. Current products based on surface lubrication technologies & improve tactile benefits. Consumers experience and observe that the current product is an instant effect but doesn't last long.
Consumer needs to prevent these damage processes by way of using different appropriate hair washing products that target silicone deposition technologies. To eliminate or alleviate this consumer problem should lead to a product having high deposition on tips and less in roots. As it is well known in the art, a lipid layer covers the cuticles and protects the hair from damage. Due to continuous hair washing with different chemicals and physical treatment, lipid layer from normal hair gets removed and cuticle layer opens up. As soon as, cuticle layer opens, hair starts to get damaged very fast due to chemical used and by physical treatment if right product is not used for washing or hair treatment. During the damage process, hair tips become damage first and roots remains less damaged due to oily protection from sebum. Therefore, silicone deposition must be less in roots so that sebum can freely secretes from roots, otherwise hair fall takes place very fast. On the other hand, most of silicone used as mentioned above in hair care formulation is heterogeneously deposited on hair during washing and mostly transferred to roots rather than tips. Amino silicones thus has unique solution to resolve such above said problem. Properly designed amino silicone due to its cationic nature is predominantly deposited at tips and much less in roots. Hence, protect the damage hair from further damage.
Amino silicone emulsion is thus a highly popular category of silicone known for its use in different hair care formulations. Most important part of amino silicone is its application in wide conditioning formulations in different hair care products and irrespective of product categories, amino silicone emulsion improves softness, shine and wet combing of hair by way of its application in different types of hair care products. Amino silicone emulsion is available on different particle sizes in the range of 0.01 micron to 150 micron having low to moderate viscosity oil prepared by way of stirring or homogenizing in mechanical process. Amino silicone can be made by emulsion polymerization process by stirring or homogenizing with a particle sizes 0.01 micron to 150 micron having apparent internal oil viscosity from few hundred to few hundred thousand cps. This viscosity rise is not a true linear propagation of di-functional unit of siloxane bond but more of inter or intra molecular or both condensation due to presence of reactive groups in alpha omega positions in the polymer chain or hydrogen bonding of reactive groups at alpha omega position in the chain with amino group in the polymer chain i.e. cross linking of amino with siloxane in the form of trifunctional propagation. So, amino emulsion having higher fluid viscosity by emulsion polymerization process contains amino silicone polymeric oil having mostly resin type structure with a loss of amine functionality. Therefore, amino emulsion obtained by emulsion polymerization having particle sizes from 0.01 micron to 150 micron having polymers with cross-linking nature becomes less effective in conditioning properties due to the damage of amino groups as compared to emulsion made by the process of stirring or homogenizing amino oil, emulsifiers and water mechanically. Generally, making an aminosilicone polymeric fluid with more than 25000 cps is always a problem due to cross linking that ultimately gets gelled due to formation of resin structure.
EP0269889 by Norbert Gamon, EP 0628589 by Stevan Edward Cray & Mubarik M Chowdhry and U.S. Pat. No. 6,093,841 by Norbert Winkhofer & Holger Rautschek describes different processes for making amino silicone polymeric fluid. Non of the abovesaid prior art patents clearly defines how a stable high viscous amino silicone polymeric fluid is produced from amino silane and polysiloxane oligomer since highly viscous amino silane has an affinity towards condensation between themselves in having —OH group or —OR group at alpha omega position in amino fluid that forms hydrogen bond with the amino group.
There are still some other categories of silicone emulsions which are being used in different hair care products like poly ether modified silicone or poly quaternary silicones. All these products have mild conditioning properties with higher negative impact in hair care product.
Therefore all low viscous amino silicone emulsion results in poor silkiness and dry combing when used in different hair care products. So, to compensate for such properties, either a high oil viscosity containing dimethicone or dimethiconol or vinyldimethicone or vinyldimethiconol emulsion is added in combination to amino silicone emulsion. Still, these amino silicone emulsion with other silicone emulsion is not a solution in shampoo formulations due to extreme drop in shampoo viscosity for e.g. a shampoo base having viscosity 8000-10000 cps drops to below 100 cps after addition of low viscous amino silicone emulsion. Such negative aspects are associated with amino silicone emulsion added when alone or in combination with other silicone. Some times, a high amount of thickening agent is used to build up shampoo viscosity which not only increases formulation cost but also showed negative sensory effect on hair.
Nowadays, in global hair care market, shampoos as hair care products constitute more than 70% in comparison to other hair care products. Therefore, such negative properties of amino silicone are found to limit the use of such emulsions in different hair care applications.
On the other hand, amino silicone emulsion shows a positive advantage of maximum silicone transfer on hair due to its cationic nature as high as 50-60% by way of optimizing shampoo formulation in combination of suitable depositing agent. This high range of silicone deposition is impossible with other type of dimethicone or dimethiconol or vinyldimethicone or vinyldimethiconol silicone emulsion.
As would be apparent from the above state of the art and discussions therein, that it is a longfelt need to look for the possible application of amino silicone emulsion's in different hair care products, and it is thus essential not only to save the silicone from wastage while rinsing of hair in water but also have a possibility to use in all hair care applications if a stable linear high viscous amino fluid with a polymer viscosity min 60000 cps or above could be manufactured with a proper control of amine number and then use such amino silicone polymeric fluid to make high viscous amino silicone emulsion is such a way such that there is a minimum impact in shampoo viscosity observed after addition in shampoo formulation. These high viscosities amino silicone emulsions would thus provide for optimum conditioning effects in different hair care products without any negative sensory effect and diversify effective and advantageous use of silicone in hair care applications.

As discussed hereinbefore the present invention provides for stable high viscous amino silicone polymeric fluids and emulsions thereof and its process of manufacture. The present invention particularly relates to synthesis of the highly viscous amino silicone polymeric fluid with polymer viscosity of at least 50000 cps and emulsions made out of it with particle size in the range of 0.01-150 micron suited for diverse applications in products related to personal care such as hair care, textile, release and the like.
Importantly, it is found by way of the present invention that one of the critical aspects, which enable producing the stable linear high viscous amino silicone polymeric fluid is to control the amine number of the said polymeric fluid which has an important role to stabilize the fluid when polymer attains high viscosity. Type of catalyst, quantity of catalyst employed in the said process of synthesis also plays an important role to stabilize the said high viscosity amino fluid. Quantity of amino silane oligomer used while synthesizing the said amino silicone polymeric fluid also controls the stability final viscosity, stability of the emulsion and emulsion performance in end use applications especially in personal care application and more importantly in hair care product without showing any negative sensory effect.
Advantageously, it is also found by way of the present invention that the same enables the production of an emulsion of high viscous amino silicone polymeric fluid by a simple process due to selective use of emulsifiers. Also the quantity of the emulsifiers has great role to make the emulsion stable. In particular, the above process of making high viscous amino silicone emulsion of different particle sizes is stabilized by use of surfactants having a critical HLB values that help to make faster desired particle size emulsion by using simple high shear mixer without the need for complex a high capital shear mixer. It is also important to control temperature for achieving desired particle size with narrow distribution of the particle wherein to make the emulsion in between 20 to 40° C. helps to quickly achieve desired particle size high viscous amino silicone emulsion.
Moreover, the present invention further identifies the importance of the selective use of non-ionic emulsifier by way of a mixture of non-ionic having HLB value of the mixture in-between 5 to 15 shows optimum combinations to make stable different particle stable emulsion with a help of simple high shear mixer. Furthermore, the addition of the cationic emulsifiers optimizes the performance of the emulsion in final applications as found by way of the present invention.
The three major steps leading to the applications of the high viscous amino silicone emulsion made by the process of the present invention are accomplished in the following stages involving:

    
    
        1. Synthesis of highly viscous stable amino silicone polymeric fluids
        2. Making of emulsions by utilizing the said high viscous amino silicone polymeric fluids with different particle sizes
        3. Applications of the said high viscous amino silicone emulsion
    
    


The details of the invention, its nature and objects are explained hereunder in greater detail in relation to the following non-limiting examples.


EXAMPLE 1
Synthesis of High Viscous Stable Amino Silicone Polymeric Fluids
According to the present invention, synthesis of highly viscous amino silicone emulsion comprises of the following steps,

    
    
        a. Hydrolysis of alcoxy group of amino silane in cyclosiloxane or in other low viscous silicone oil
        b. Synthesis of highly viscous amino silicone polymeric fluid by using the hydrolyzed amino silane solution of step ‘a’ above, silicone cyclosiloxane or short chain silicone oligomer or mixture thereof and α, ω-trialkyl siloxy siloxane in presence of an alkaline catalyst.
    
    


EXAMPLE 1a
Hydrolysis of Alcoxy Group of Amino Silane Molecule in Low Viscous Silicone Solvent
According to the present invention, amino silane used for hydrolysis has the general formula I

(R1)a(R1O)bSi(—R2—NR3—R2—NR3)4-a-b  (I)

For hydrolysing the silane represented by the general Formula I, first, maximum 50% of the silane is dissolved in suitable solvent wherein silane becomes clearly soluble. Preferably the concentration of the silane in the solvent is maintained to upto a maximum of 20% for carrying out total splitting of alcoxy groups attached to silane molecule. Concentration of the amino silane is thus an important aspect for complete splitting of the alcoxy groups completely from the silane molecule. With increasing the concentration of silane, solubility of hydrolysed silane starts to decrease and as the solubility starts to decrease, splitting of alcoxy group from silane also become difficult. If hydrolysis is carried out in presence of insoluble hydrolysed silane, then after addition of water, hydrolysed silane gets gelled after some time. The main object of the present invention is to achieve alcoxy group free hydrolysed silane solution so that it can use in the second stage of reaction easily that would be free of alcoxy groups in alpha omega position during the synthesis of high viscous amino fluid. Solvents to solubilise silane are aromatic solvents such as toluene, xylene or the like or aliphatic solvent like octane or the like or cyclosiloxane like octamethyl cyclosiloxane, decamethylcyclopentasiloxane or any other higher cyclosiloxane or mixture thereof or low viscous silicone oil. According to the present invention, most preferable solvent is cyclosiloxane and particularly octamethylcyclotetrasiloxane. Water requirement is stoichiometrically half mole in respect of ‘b’ in the silane of general Formula I to split the alcoxy group completely from silane molecule.
Hydrolysis is carried out at a temperature of 50-130° C. with controlled addition of water under nitrogen atmosphere. Most preferable temperature according to the present invention for hydrolysis varies from 60 to 100° C. After addition of water, the reaction is continued until all alcohol come out from the reaction kettle. The reaction kettle was cooled and the amine number of the liquid in the kettle was measured. This amino number is required in the next stage of reaction to set the quantity of hydrolyzed amino silane solution required for carrying out the synthesis of high viscous amino fluid with desired amino number in the final high viscous amino fluid.
EXAMPLE 1b
Synthesis of High Viscous Amino Silicone Polymeric Fluid from Hydrolyzed Amino Silane Solution
Synthesis of stable high viscous amino silicone polymeric fluid has two major aspects;
i) to synthesise hydrolyzed amino silane solution free from alcoxy group for making high viscous amino silicone polymeric fluid with no alcoxy termination and also to ensure during the synthesis of the said hydrolysed amino silane that there is no gellation of hydrolyzed amino silane oligomer after losing the said alcoxy group. Both these factors are important for making stable hydrolysed amino silane oligomer and stable high viscous amino silicone polymeric fluid. The hydrolysed amino silane produced as described above improves the stability of high viscous amino silicone polymeric fluid by restricting inter molecular condensation of terminal hydroxyl or alcoxy group also reduce the chance of hydrogen bonding with terminal reacting group such as amino group in the side chain.

ii) stabilising the said high viscous amino silicone polymeric fluid by controlling intra or inter molecular hydrogen bonding between the side chain amino groups. Therefore, it is important to select an amine number of the highly viscous aminosilicone polymeric fluid in such way that number of amino groups placed in the chain from one amino and distance with respect to another amino is long enough to reduce the chance of hydrogen bonding between the said amino groups as they are placed beyond the hydrogen bonding distance. According to present invention, high viscosity amino silicone polymeric fluid within amine no 0.12 shows excellent stability on polymer viscosity. More particularly, amine number within 0.06 is most preferable for the synthesis of stable high viscous amino fluid.

The synthesis of said high viscous amino silicone is carried out by reacting the linear oligomer of organopolysiloxane or organocyclosiloxane or mixture thereof together with hydrolysed amino silane as above and a polymer chain stopper in presence of alkaline catalyst at 70-150° C. under N2 atmosphere. After completion of the reaction, the polymer is neutralized with acidic organic compound which is compatible with amino silicone polymer. Volatiles in the amino silicone polymer are removed by vacuum stripping at 110 to 220° C. The amino silicone polymer was then cooled to room temperature under vacuum after completion of stripping.
Polymerisation of linear organopolysiloxane or organocyclosiloxane or mixture thereof with hydrolysed amino silane and chain stopper is carried out at 70-150° C. under N2 atmosphere in presence of alkaline catalyst with the most preferable temperature range of 100-140° C. After completion of reaction, the high viscous amino silicone polymer is neutralised with acidic organic compound and most preferably with silyl phosphate.
Volatiles from the polymer is stripped out under vacuum at 110 to 220° C. and most preferably ranges from 150 to 180° C.
According to the process of the present invention to prepare the high viscous amino fluid, the quantity of chain stopper required is dependent on the final amino silicone polymer viscosity targeted. Amino silicone polymer viscosity of at least 50000 cps upto 2 Mio cps is safely synthesized without any gel formation by controlled addition of chain stopper with most preferred viscosity range of from 200000-500000 cps that can be utilized for various different applications.
EXAMPLE 1c
Emulsion Making of Highly Viscous Amino Silicone Polymeric Fluids with Different Particle Size
According to the present invention, a wide range of high viscous amino silicone emulsions having particle sizes upto 150 micron (high particle emulsion) are formulated in together with non-ionic emulsifiers or mixture of non-ionic and cationic emulsifiers by using simple stirring system or by high speed homogenizer.
It is also observed according to the present invention, two different types of emulsifiers system require for two ranges of particle sizes. For particle sizes below 1000 nm of high viscous amino silicone emulsion, non-ionic emulsifiers having HLB value in between 5-19 are suitable to make the emulsion process simpler. Most useful surfactants of this category are polyoxyalkylene alkyl ether, polyoxyalkylene alkylphenyl ethers polyoxyalkylene sorbitan esters. More precisely, some useful surfactants having HLB value in between 8-19 are polyethylene glycol octyl ether; Polyethylene glycol lauryl ether; Polyethylene glycol tridecyl ether; Polyethylene glycol isotridecyl ether, Polyethylene glycol cetyl ether; Polyethylene glycol cetostearyl ether, Polyethylene glycol stearyl ether; polyethylene glycol nonylphenyl ether; polyethylene glycol dodecylphenyl ether; polyethylene glycol cetylphenyl ether; polyethylene glycol staerylphenyl ether; polyethylene glycol sorbitan mono stearate and polyethylene glycol sorbitan mono oleate. It is also preferable non-ionic surfactant having HLB value in-between 8-17 is useful to make high viscous amino silicone emulsion by using simple shear mixer in shorter period and it is also art of this invention to use 10-14 HLB emulsifier system by selecting different non-ionic surfactants having HLB values from 8-17 for making stable high viscous amino silicone emulsion. It is also important art of the invention to use a defined amount amino oil and emulsifier for making stable high viscous amino oil emulsion. Generally, 20 to 60% by wt amino silicone fluid together with non-ionic emulsifiers having HLB in the range of 10-14 comprising mixture of non-ionic emulsifiers in an amount 2 to 20% by wt and water in an amount 35 to 75% by wt and/or an cationic emulsifier/s in an amount from zero to 7% by wt. More particularly, 25 to 50% by wt amino silicone fluid together with non-ionic emulsifiers having HLB in the range of 10-14 comprising mixture of non-ionic emulsifiers in an amount 5 to 20% by wt and water in an amount 26 to 70% by wt and/or an cationic emulsifier/s in an amount from zero to 4% by wt. It is important to use more than one emulsifier with combined HLB value between 8-14 for making stable emulsion.
For particle sizes above 1000 nm of high viscous amino silicone emulsion, non-ionic emulsifiers having HLB value in between 5-19 are suitable to make the emulsion process simpler. Most useful surfactants of this category are polyoxyalkylene alkyl ether, polyoxyalkylene alkylphenyl ethers and polyoxyalkylene sorbitan esters. More precisely, some useful surfactants having HLB value in between 8-19 are polyethylene glycol octyl ether; Polyethylene glycol lauryl ether; Polyethylene glycol tridecyl ether; Polyethylene glycol isotridecyl ether, Polyethylene glycol cetyl ether; Polyethylene glycol cetostearyl ether, Polyethylene glycol stearyl ether; polyethylene glycol nonylphenyl ether; polyethylene glycol dodecylphenyl ether; polyethylene glycol cetylphenyl ether; polyethylene glycol staerylphenyl ether; polyethylene glycol sorbitan mono stearate and polyethylene glycol sorbitan mono oleate. It is also preferable non-ionic surfactant having HLB value in-between 8-17 is useful to make high viscous amino silicone emulsion by using simple shear mixer in shorter period and it is also art of this invention to use 8-14 HLB emulsifier system by selecting different non-ionic surfactants having HLB values from 6-15 for making stable high viscous amino silicone emulsion. It is also important art of the invention to use a defined amount amino oil and emulsifier for making stable high viscous amino oil emulsion. Generally, 20 to 60% by wt amino silicone fluid together with non-ionic emulsifiers having HLB in the range of 8-14 comprising single emulsifier or mixture of non-ionic emulsifiers in an amount 2 to 20% by wt and water in an amount 35 to 75% by wt and/or an cationic emulsifier/s in an amount from zero to 7% by wt. More particularly, 30 to 60% by wt amino silicone fluid together with non-ionic emulsifiers having HLB in the range of 8-14 comprising mixture of non-ionic emulsifiers in an amount 2 to 10% by wt and water in an amount 27 to 68% by wt and/or an cationic emulsifier/s in an amount from 0.1 to 3% by wt. It is important to use more than one emulsifier with combined HLB value between 8-14 for making stable emulsion.
It is also observed the stability of the emulsion remarkably improved by the addition of organic acid and adjust final emulsion pH toward acidic pH.
Further addition of a biocide at the end of the emulsion making process helps to protect the emulsion from microbial contamination.
Another important aspect of the process of the present invention is to control temperature while making emulsion of high viscous amino oil. Maintaining a temperature in the range of 10 to 40° C. is suitable while making emulsion. More particularly, maintaining a temperature below 20° C. is suitable while making emulsion to generate particle size of under 1000 nm and for emulsion having particle size more than 1000 nm, higher temperature around 40° C. is required for dispersing waxy type emulsifier/s.
The process of making a highly viscous amino silicone emulsion having particle size below 1000 nm, comprises the steps of: a small portion of water is taken in the emulsion tank and emulsifiers are added in the tank. The water and emulsifiers are mixed for few minutes. Then, desired quantity of the amino fluid was added in the tank and the mixture was homogenized till the mixture become thick paste. Then, the rest of the water was added in a controlled manner and the mixture was homogenized after each addition of water. Finally, biocide was added for preserving the emulsion against microbial contamination; whereas for making amino silicone emulsion having particle size above 1000, first total water and emulsifiers transfer in the tank and depending on the type of emulsifiers, temperature of the mixture was increased so that emulsifiers dissolve in water. Then, the emulsifier/s solution was cooled below 40° C. Desired quantity of high viscous amino fluid in the emulsion tank was added and continued to stir till desire particle size was achieved in the emulsion. For high particle emulsion, viscojet stirrer is more preferable to achieve very stable emulsion and narrow distribution of particle size. Viscosjet is useful to control temperature of the emulsion during stirring since viscojet generates minimum heat while mixing the emulsion. Finally, add biocide for preserving emulsion against microbial contamination.

#Control shampoo composition—Shampoo Base A with 1.5% active Wacker Belsil 3140E (50% activeone million cps dimethiconol oil anionic EP emulsion)


















In Table 1, and examples 1 & 2 therein were carried out according to the process mentioned in U.S. Pat. No. 6,093,841A wherein after hydrolysis, only 35-45% alcohol recovered meaning hydrolysed silane still contained 55-65% alcoxy group. As a result, the polymers illustrated under examples 7 and 8 of Table 2 prepared by using the silane of example 1 & 2 gets gelled due to high alcoxy group content in the silane which afterward gets cross linked by intra or inter molecular condensation or hydrogen bonding with the amine group.
Hydrolysis of silane carried out by way of the present invention, illustrated in Table 1, under examples 3 & 4 showed 98% alcohol recovery meaning the hydrolysed silane was almost free from alcoxy groups. Therefore, the amino fluids made out of the said hydrolysed silane under examples 3 & 4 and illustrated under examples 9, 10, 13 & 14 in Table 2, reflected no gellation even after heat ageing at 55° C.
Again, the high concentration of amino silane in the solvent as per examples 5 & 6 in Table 1 were unable to split alcoxy groups from amino silanes that resulted in low amount alcohol recovery. As a result, when amino fluids were made by using hydrolyzed silane as per example 5 & 6 and as illustrated in examples 11 & 12 in table 2, it gets gelled due to high alcoxy group content in the silane which afterward gets cross linked by intra or inter molecular condensation or hydrogen bonding with amine group. Therefore, from table 1 & 2, it is clear that a stable high viscous amino fluid is made possible if silane used for making such amino fluid is free from alcoxy groups.
In Table 3, emulsions made by using hydrolysed silane from examples 3 & 4 of Table 1 leading to amino fluids 9 and 14 of Table 2 along with emulsifiers with HLB values 8-15 with a desired combination of fluid and emulsifiers according to present invention are found to be stable at different particles sizes, as illustrated in examples 16 to 21.
Again, in table 4, emulsions made by using hydrolysed silane from examples 3 & 4 of Table 1 leading to amino fluids 9 and 14 of Table 2 along with emulsifiers with HLB values 8-15 with a different combination of fluid and emulsifies were found unstable at different particles sizes, showed in examples 23 to 30. Therefore, from Table 3 & 4, it is understood that a stable high viscous amino fluid is only possible if a right combination of mixed emulsifiers with or without cationic emulsifier is used together with the high viscous amino silicone fluid.
Importantly in Table 3, emulsion 21 is utilized for studying the performance of standard amino silicone fluid emulsion with highly viscous amino fluid emulsions made according to the present invention.
For the study of high viscous amino silicone emulsion performance in 2-in-1 type shampoo, a base as illustrated in Table 5 is prepared. Shampoo base was categorized as shampoo A, B & C according to different depositing agents. 15 different shampoo formulations with additional one control shampoo were prepared for studying the performance of high viscous amino emulsions made by way of the present invention. 15 different shampoo formulations were studied according to compositions illustrated in Table 6.
Viscosity stability of the shampoos at 45° C. is shown in Table 7. All shampoos made as per Table 6 were kept at 45° C. for 3 months and shampoo viscosity for formulations under Table 6 such as formulations ShampA17 to ShampA21 were observed against standard shampoo formulations ShmpA22, ShmpB22 & ShmpC22 containing emulsion of standard viscosity amino fluid of Example 22 under Table 3. The formulations ShmpA22, ShmpB22 & ShmpC22 showed drastical drop in shampoo viscosity whereas other shampoos containing high viscous amino silicone emulsions showed marginal drops in shampoo viscosity.
Shampoo viscosity is an important parameter for getting application of shampoo on hair. Basic problem of low viscosity shampoo on hair washing is to slip out during washing of hair and also an important parameter from consumer point of acceptability since consumer accept shampoo with certain thick consistency but consumers believe lower viscosity shampoo means some problem in the product. Generally minimum 4000 cps shampoo viscosity is required at the end of storage cycle and according to the present invention, all shampoo containing high viscosity amino emulsion remains well within the limit at the end of heat ageing cycle.
Tables 8 and 10, illustrate the conditioning properties of the shampoos with different type's high viscous amino silicone emulsions obtained by way of the present invention as compared with standard amino silicone emulsion and control silicone emulsion. From the analysis, it is clear that high viscous amino silicone emulsions having particle sizes below 300 nm showed excellent conditioning effects in-comparison to control formulation as mentioned below Table 8 and shampoo with standard amino silicone emulsion. It was also observed Shampoos containing high viscous amino emulsions with depositing agent Polyquart-7 was found to be comparatively better in conditioning effect in comparison to Shampoos containing high viscous amino emulsions with depositing agent Polyquart-10 and Guar Hydroxylpropyl trimonium chloride.
Table 9 illustrates silicone deposition of all shampoos on normal hair & damaged hair shown and observed silicone deposition on hair from shampoo containing high viscous amino silicone emulsion much higher compare to control shampoo and shampoo containing standard amino silicone emulsion. Moreover, shampoo containing high viscosity amino emulsion of the present invention always deposited higher amount of silicone on damaged hair meaning on hair tips and deposited less silicone on normal hair such as hair root. Most interestingly, shampoo C17 showed maximum deposition on damage hair and less in roots. It was also observed from table no 9 that same amino emulsion with polyquaternium 7 as the cationic depositing agent transferred optimum amount of siloxane in comparison to shampoo containing same amino emulsion with different depositing agent. These controlled depositing properties not only repair the damaged hair but also save hair fall due to less deposition of silicone at hair roots which helps a smooth secretion of sebum from roots cells. Moreover, this property not only saves the wastage of silicone during application in hair washing but also helps to optimize the best conditioning effect by using comparatively less dosage of high viscous amino silicone emulsion in the shampoo formulation making the said formulation an economical one.
Importantly, it is found by way of the invention that one of the critical aspects, which enable producing the stable linear high viscous amino silicone fluid is that the amine number of the fluid which has an important role to stabilize the fluid when polymer attains high viscosity. Type of catalyst, quantity of the catalyst also have important role to stabilize high viscosity amino fluid. Quantity of amino silane oligomer also controls the stability final viscosity, stability of the emulsion and emulsion performance in end use applications especially in personal care application and more importantly in hair care product without showing any negative sensory effect.
It is also found by way of invention that the same enables the production of an emulsion of highly viscous amino silicone polymer by a simple process due to selective use of emulsifiers. Also the quantity of the emulsifiers has great role to make the emulsion stable. In particular, in the above process of making different particles high viscous amino silicone emulsion is stabilized by use of surfactants having a critical HLB values that help to make faster desire particle size emulsion by using simple high shear mixer without need for complex a high capital shear mixer. It is also important to control temperature for achieving desire particle size with narrow distribution of the particle.
Moreover, the present invention further identifies the importance of the selective use of non-ionic emulsifier by way of a mixture of non-ionic and cationic emulsifiers having HLB value of the mixture in-between 5 to 19 shows optimum combinations to make stable different particle stable emulsion with a help of simple high shear mixer. Furthermore, in present invention cationic emulsifier may optimize performance in final application.
