Description
The present invention relates to novel "anti-solar" polymers which are particularly useful in cosmetic preparations, to the process for preparing these new polymers and to cosmetic compositions containing the same.
Sunburn, or erythema, results from the excessive exposure of human skin to the rays of the sun and the wave lengths of light in the range of 280 to 315 millimicrons, often called the "erythematous zone" are those which produce such sunburn.
Below this wave length range the sun rays do not present any particular danger, for they are filtered by the ozone in the atmosphere.
However, the UV rays which are responsible for or which produce a desirable suntan are those in the zone ranging from 315 to 400 millimicrons.
Consequently, if one desires to be exposed to solar radiation, it is important that the skin be protected with the aid of a composition containing a substance which absorbs the UV rays in the erythematous zone, thereby avoiding an undesirable sunburn, which composition however also transmits those wave lengths in the range of 315 to 400 millimicrons so as to obtain a desirable suntan.
Heretofore a number of formulations have been proposed for this purpose. For the most part, they are based on aromatic compounds exhibiting an absorption in the UV in the zone between 280 and 315 millimicrons and, more particularly, between 295 and 305 millimicrons.
In addition to this absorbing power, such compounds must have other properties and in particular they must not absorb the wave lengths of light in the zone ranging from 315 to 400 millimicrons, they should be non-volatile and they should also be resistant to both fresh and salt water and to perspiration. Additionally they should exhibit cosmetic compatibility with other components which may be present in suntan formulations and they should be non-odorous, non-toxic and non-irritating, i.e. entirely harmless to the user.
Among these characteristics, non-toxicity and dermotological compatibility are of great importance.
Representative aromatic compounds which have heretofore been employed in suntan preparations include derivatives of para-aminobenzoic acid, derivatives of anthranilic acid, derivatives of cinnamic acid and dihydroxy and trihydroxy cinnamic acid, derivatives of coumarin and the like.
The rather current widespread use of such compounds as an "anti-solar filter", is not without certain disadvantages. Certain of these substances do not exhibit sufficient efficiency in their ability to absorb the wave lengths of light in the erythematous zone. Moreover many do not possess the requisite solubility characteristics necessary so as to be utilized in many different types of formulation, and finally, because of their low molecular weight, many are able to penetrate through the epidermis of the skin into the human body which, in certain cases, can cause unfavorable side effects.
In an effort to remedy the inconveniences of these compounds, it has also been proposed to fix on macromolecular chains of certain copolymers, filters absorbing in UV in the erythematous region.
Among the polymers of this type described in the literature, one can in particular cite those resulting from the polymerization of 2-hydroxy (3-acryloxy or methacryloxy-2 hydroxy-4-propoxy) benzophenone with a comonomer of the methyl methacrylate type or of an unsaturated carboxylic acid such as acrylic, methacrylic, itaconic or crotonic acid, or the like.
However, these copolymers have not been found to be fully effective in cosmetic compositions because often they are quite difficult to formulate with other components generally found in a wide variety of anti-solar compositions and often they absorb only a portion of the undesirable wave lengths in the erythematous zone.
In effect, the nature of the function which permits the linking of the filter moiety to the polymeric chain of these known materials seriously limits the number of aromatic residues which impart the filtering or absorping characteristics to the polymer and thus it has been found that there is often not a sufficient amount of such aromatic residues to provide the degree of efficacy desired or required.
To overcome these disadvantages, the applicants have now provided anti-solar polymers wherein the residue which imparts to the polymer the ability to absorb wave lengths in the erythematous zone is linked to the polymeric chain by an intermediate chemical function of a particular type.
Thus in a first embodiment, the present invention relates to an anti-solar polymer which contains in the macromolecular chain thereof at least one unit having the formula ##STR4## wherein F is a residue derived from an aromatic compound imparting to the polymer the ability to absorb those wave lengths of light in the range of about 280 and 315 millimicrons.
In a second embodiment of the present invention the anti-solar polymer contains in the macromolecular chain thereof at least one unit having the formula ##STR5## wherein F.sub.1 represents a member selected from the group consisting of:
The new polymers according to this embodiment of the invention are preferably copolymers (bi-polymers, terpolymers, etc.), that is to say, they carry both the units of formula II and one or more other units derived from ethylenically unsaturated monomers.
The ethylenically unsaturated monomers or comonomers able to enter into the production of the copolymers according to the invention are selected as a function of the type of formulation that one desires to produce.
It has been observed that the use of the anti-solar polymers of the present invention in cosmetic compositions is highly advantageous since the linking of the F or F.sub.1 residue to the macromolecular chain avoids or at last significantly retards the migration of an otherwise non-linked absorbent moiety through the skin into the human body thereby avoiding any undesirable side effects which have been experienced in the use of heretofore known anti-solar filters.
The importance of this feature can be easily appreciated especially since repeated applications of the anti-solar compositions of this invention are generally not necessary to achieve the desired results which thereby avoids any substantial risk of a massive absorption of the filter compounds into the body.
The anti-solar polymers of this invention generally have an average molecular weight generally between 2,000 and 1,000,000.
The radical in formula I above, represented by F, can be derived from a variety of aromatic compounds. Representative radicals include aryl, alkyl aryl, alkenylaryl, each of which can optionally be substituted, as well as aromatic heterocyclic radicals, also optionally substituted.
In particular the radical F can be selected from the group consisting of: ##STR6## wherein R is selected from the hydrogen and CH.sub.3 and R.sub.1 is selected from the group consisting of CH.sub.3 and OCH.sub.3 ##STR7##
Because of the variety of the nature of the radicals F and F.sub.1 that can be linked to the polymer chain, it is possible to fully cover the erythematous zone simply by a judicious selection of the appropriate compounds to be linked to said polymer chain.
The anti-solar polymers of the present invention can be either homopolymers, copolymers, terpolymers and the like.
Thus, in the homopolymers of this invention, in the repeating unit defined by formulas I and II the values of F and F.sub.1 are the same whereas in a group of copolymers of this invention, in the said repeating unit, the values of F and/or F.sub.1 can be different.
The ability to obtain copolymers having fixed on their macromolecular chains F and/or F.sub.1 radicals of differing structures is a highly desirable feature since by choosing the appropriate compounds, it is thus possible to provide a single copolymer which can cover the entire erythematous zone, thereby producing an anti-solar filter of great efficacy.
The polymers of the invention can also be bipolymers, terpolymers or the like, and they can include, at the same time, (1) units of formula I or II wherein F or F.sub.1 is the same and one or more other units can be derived from ethylenically unsaturated monomers, or (2) units of formula I or II containing F and/or F.sub.1 radicals which are different, and one or more other units can be derived from ethylenically unsaturated monomers.
The selection of the ethylenically unsaturated monomers or comonomers for use in the production of the polymers of the present invention is generally dependent on the function of the desired use of the resulting composition or, more exactly, on the type of formulation that is desired. The amount of ethylenically unsaturated monomer in the polymer is about 20-90 percent of the total weight of the copolymer.
Thus is is possible to impart to the anti-solar polymers of this invention different characteristics by varying the nature of the comonomer used.
Representative comonomers include:
(a) N-vinylpyrrolidone,
(b) N-methacryloyl D-glucosamine,
(c) dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate
(d) stearyl methacrylate
(e) stearyl acrylate and
(f) methyl methacrylate
The first three of these comonomers generally increase the solubility of the resulting polymer in aqueous solutions while the last three ordinarily increase the solubility of the polymer in oil.
In another embodiment of the present invention the copolymers can have the formula ##STR8## wherein
F has the meaning given above,
R' represents hydrogen or methyl and
Y represents a radical selected from the group consisting of ##STR9## wherein X represents D-glucosamine, dimethylamino ethyl optionally quaternized and C.sub.18 H.sub.37.
In yet another embodiment of the present invention, the copolymers can have the formula: ##STR10## wherein
F.sub.1 has the same meaning above,
R' represents hydrogen or methyl and
Y represents a member selected from the group consisting of ##STR11## wherein X represents dimethylaminoethyl optionally quaternized and C.sub.18 H.sub.37, ##STR12## and wherein A is D-glucosamine radical.
According to this embodiment of the invention, the anti-solar polymers have a content of the units of formula II generally between 15 and 100%, and preferably between 20 and 80%, by weight, relative to the total weight of the polymer.
The amount of the comonomer present in the antisolar polymer of formula III of the present invention is variable but it is generally between about 20 and 90% of the total weight of the polymer, and preferably between 20 and 85%.
This latter content, as can be seen, can vary rather widely and the particular content selected can depend, for instance, on the particular use chosen for the resulting polymer.
Also, the anti-solar polymers of formula II are characterized in that the weight of the repeating unit is between about 10-100%, generally between 15-100%, of the total weight of the polymer, and preferably between 20 and 80%.
The present invention also relates to a process for preparing the said anti-solar polymers.
In one embodiment, this process comprises preparing in a first stage a monomer, designated a "solar-filter monomer", of the formula ##STR13## wherein F and F.sub.1 have the same meaning given above, this said monomer in a second stage then being homopolymerized or copolymerized with one or more other comonomers.
The "solar-filter monomer" is prepared in a conventional manner by reacting, cold, in a sulfuric acid medium N-methylol acrylamide on the compound F or F.sub.1. The time of the reaction is generally in the order of 10 hours to 4 days and is effected ordinarily at about ambient temperature.
The polymerization reaction can be effected according to conventional polymerization reactions, i.e., in mass, in solution, in suspension or in emulsion.
The polymerization initiators utilized are generally conventional free radical polymerization initiators and the choice of any one particular initiator can depend principally on the different monomers used as well as on the nature of reaction medium selected.
Representative usable initiators include the peroxides, such as benzoyl peroxide, lauroyl peroxide, acetyl peroxide, tertiobutyl hydroperoxide or benzoyl hydroperoxide, a catalyst which by decomposition liberates an inert gas, such as azobisisobutyonitrile, an oxidation-reduction catalyst such as sodium persulfate, sodium sulfite and H.sub.2 O.sub.2. The concentration of the initiator is generally between about 0.2-35 weight percent, preferably between 0.5-20 weight percent, of the total weight of the monomer content.
The molecular weight of the anti-solar polymers of the present invention can be regulated by introducing, during the course of polymerization reaction, small amounts, i.e. about 0.05-0.15 weight percent of a chain regulating agent such as an aldehyde, for instance, butyraldehyde or a halogenated substance such as chloroform, bromoform, carbon tetrachloride, and the like.
At the end of the polymerization reaction, the polymer obtained can, if desired, be purified by, for example, treating it with an ion exchange resin.
The present invention also relates to an antisolar cosmetic composition containing as the active component for absorbing wave length of light in the range of 280 to 315 millimicrons at least one anti-solar polymer as described above.
These cosmetic compositions can be present in diverse forms, the choice of any particular form being dependent upon the desired use of the composition. Preferably, these compositions are present in the form of an aqueous emulsion, lotion, cream, milk, gel or in the form of an aerosol. These compositions can also be present in the form of an aqueous or hydroalcoholic (ethanol or isopropanol) solution or even in the form of an oily solution.
When the compositons of the present invention are present in the form of an aerosol, they are packaged under pressure in a conventional aerosol bomb or container in the presence of a propellant gas which is preferably a halogenated hydrocarbon or a mixture of said hydrocarbons, such as, for example, mixtures of trichlorofluoromethane and dichlorodifluoromethane.
In these cosmetic compositions, the concentration of the polymers described above can be varied for any particular concentration can depend on the degree of protection desired. However, the concentration of the anti-solar polymer in these compositions is generally between about 0.2-20% by weight of the total composition.
These anti-solar cosmetic compositions can also contain conventional cosmetic adjuvants such as fatty bodies (oils, fats and waxes), emulsifying agents, surfactants, perfumes, silicone oils, pigments, dyes or preservatives.
The incorporation into these compositions of colored pigments also permits coloring the skin and masking skin flaws.
By applying to the skin the composition of the present invention, there is formed a film exhibiting good affinity vis-a-vis the epidermis, thus assuring excellent protection against wave lengths of eight in the erythematous zone.
The present anti-solar polymers have been found to be non-toxic and their excellent protective action is 2-3 times greater than achieved by the same F or F.sub.1 compound but which is not fixed to a polymer.
In addition to this protective action of the skin vis-a-vis solar rays, the polymers of the present invention can also be used to protect, against degradation, dyes contained in various cosmetic formulations such as for example a hair dye composition, a hair tinting commposition and the like.
In the examples which follow, the absorbing strength of the "solar-filter monomer" has been defined by means of its K.sub.sp, which is a function of the quantity of filtering substance contained in the sample, of the optical density measured and of a constant depending on the particular apparatus used to measure the optical density.
The definition of the K.sub.sp which is given in "Introduction to Electronic Absorption Spectroscopy in Organic Chemistry", by Gillam and Stern, Arnold Ed. London, 1954, page 10, is:
where K=d/1 and c=concentration of the solution in g/ml, d=measured optical density and 1=thickness of the cell of the apparatus, expressed in cm.
The following examples are given to illustrate the present invention. Unless otherwise specified, all parts and percentages are by weight.
