Description

- 1 - COMPOUNDS SUITABLE FOR PERSONAL CARE AND COSMETIC USES Field of the Invention The present invention relates to novel compounds, ether and ester derivatives of polytrinnethylene ether glycol, personal care products containing them, methods of producing them, and their use as ingredients for personal care and/or cosmetic formulations, in particular as agents to provide sensory and pigment wetting properties. Background of the Invention Known polyalkylene ether glycols include polyethylene glycol, poly-1,2- propylene ether glycol, 1,3-propylene ether glycol, polytetramethylene ether glycol, polyhexamethylene ether glycol and copolymers thereof. Examples of commercially important polyether glycols include polyethylene glycol, poly(1,2-propylene glycol), ethylene oxide/propylene oxide copolyols, and polytetrarnethylene ether glycol. The most widely used polyether glycol is poly(1,2-propylene glycol) (PPG) because of its low cost. This polymer is non-crystalline, liquid at room temperature and easy to handle. However, PPG is derived from a non-renewable reactive epoxide and has secondary hydroxyl end groups. Polytrimethylene ether glycol or poly(1,3-propylene glycol) (PPDn) can be produced from non-epoxide 1,3-propanediol, which can be advantageously derived from a renewable source. Polytrimethylene ether glycols have primary hydroxyl groups, have low melting points and are highly flexible. Polytrimethylene ether glycols have been known for a number of years, as well as fatty acid mono or di-ester derivatives. They are used in different technical fields, especially as functional fluids. In the personal care and cosmetic fields, polypropanedioI-5 stearate is used as a surfactant or emulsifying formulation agent. The aim of the present invention is to propose new compound derivatives of polytrinnethylene ether glycol, in particular for the field of personal care products. Traditional cosmetic pigments are made in different ways from thermal decomposition, extraction and other filtration processes from solutions to produce a dry powder. However, these dry pigmentary powders come in multiple forms of particle aggregates/agglomerates that introduce difficulties in color properties when evaluated. Hence, they are oftentimes difficult for cosmetics chemists to formulate/stabilize on Date Recue/Date Received 2023-11-29 CA 03076555 2020-03-19 WO 2019/089202 PCT/US2018/055178 -2- various product forms like emulsions, anhydrous sticks or powder formulations. These dry powders need to be fully dispersed and their particle size reduced as much as possible to see the full development of color. Pigment dispersion has been used by cosmetic scientists as a beneficial way to introduce/incorporate dry powders into their respective formulations. Dispersion is the process of wetting, separating and distributing pigment particles in a medium. It requires intense energy input through high sheering in liquids or pulverization in powders. It can also require specialized equipment like high sheer mixers, 3 roll mills, etc. Some of the benefits of using dispersions are: the full development of color, enhanced color intensity, the prevention of agglomeration or reagglomeration, the prevention of pigment striations on product formulations, cost efficacy and the ease of incorporation in various product forms. Summary of the Invention The objective of the present invention is to address these and other disadvantages associated with the prior art. A specific objective of the invention is to propose a compound or composition having interesting properties on dispersing inorganic pigments/dyes. Accordingly, a first aspect of the present invention provides for a compound of formula 1: X-(OCH2CH2012)n-OR (1) wherein: n is an integer from 2 to 15, R is a C6 to C36 hydrocarbyl group, X is R or RiC(0), and R1 is a C2 to C35 hydrocarbyl group. According to a second aspect of the present invention, there is provided a composition comprising a mixture of two or more compounds according to the first aspect. According to a third aspect of the present invention, there is provided a method of producing the compound of the first aspect of the invention or the composition of the second aspect of the invention. A fourth aspect of the present invention provides for a personal care product comprising the compound of the first aspect of the invention or the composition of the second aspect of the invention. CA 03076555 2020-03-19 WO 2019/089202 PCT/US2018/055178 -3- A fifth aspect of the present invention provides for the use of a compound according to the first aspect of the invention, or a composition according to the second aspect of the invention, in a personal care product. All of the features described herein may be combined with any of the above aspects, in any combination. The present invention is based in part on the recognition by the inventors that a compound or composition of the first or second aspect of the invention, respectively, has advantageous properties due to its particular combination of components. It has surprisingly been discovered that capping polytrirnethylene ether glycol with a fatty alcohol group at least on one end side, the other end side being capped with an ester group, provides new ether derivative compounds, which can be named "ester-PPDn-ether" or "ether-PPDn-ether", possessing desirable rheological properties for formulation purposes, in particular pigment wetting properties, and/or sensory properties. Such properties are presented through the examples given below. Detailed description of the invention It will be understood that any upper or lower quantity or range limit used herein may be independently combined. It will be understood that, when describing the number of carbon atoms in a substituent group (e.g. 'CI to Cf,'), the number refers to the total number of carbon atoms present in the substituent group, including any present in any branched groups. Additionally, when describing the number of carbon atoms in, for example fatty acids, this refers to the total number of carbon atoms including the one at the carboxylic acid, and any present in any branch groups. Many of the chemicals which may be used to produce the composition of the .. present invention are obtained from natural sources. Such chemicals typically include a mixture of chemical species due to their natural origin.

The present invention provides for the use of a compound of the invention or a composition according to the invention as a rheology modifier in a personal care product. Preferably, the compound or composition of the present invention may increase the viscosity of a personal care product. This may provide a creamier- textured or solidifiedisemi-solidifled personal care product depending on the concentration of the compound or composition of the present invention included. The present invention provides for the use of a compound of the invention or a composition according to the invention as a sensory agent in a personal care product.

CA 03076555 2020-03-19 WO 2019/089202 PCT/US2018/055178 -10- Any additional emollients in the personal care product of the present invention will preferably mainly be an emollient oil of the type used in personal care or cosmetic products. The emollient can and usually will be an oily material which is liquid at ambient temperature. Alternatively it can be solid at ambient temperature, in which case in bulk it will usually be a waxy solid, provided it is liquid at an elevated temperature at which it can be included in and emulsified in the product. The manufacture of the product preferably uses temperatures up to 100 C, more preferably about 800C, and therefore such solid emollients will preferably have melting temperatures of less than 100 C, and more preferably less than 70 C. Suitable normally liquid emollient oils include non-polar oils, for example mineral or paraffin, especially isoparaffin, oils, such as that sold by Croda as Ariamol (trade mark) HD; or medium polarity oils, for example vegetable ester oils such as jojoba oil, vegetable glyceride oils, animal glyceride oils, such as that sold by Croda as Crodamol (trade mark) GTCC (caprylicicapric triglyceride), synthetic oils, for example synthetic ester oils, such as isopropyl palmitate and those sold by Croda as Crodamol IPM and Crodamol DOA, ether oils, particularly of two fatty e.g. C8 to C18 alkyl residues, such as that sold by Cognis as Cetiol OE (dicapryl ether), guerbet alcohols such as that sold by Cognis as Eutanol G (octyl dodecanol), or silicone oils, such as dimethicione oil such as those sold by Dow Corning as DC200, cyclomethicone oil, or silicones having polyoxyalkylene side chains to improve their hydrophilicity; or highly polar oils including alkoxylate emollients for example fatty alcohol propoxylates such as that sold by Croda as Arlamol PS15 (propoxylated stearyl alcohol). Suitable emollient materials that can be solid at ambient temperature but liquid at temperatures typically used to make the compositions of this invention include jojoba wax, tallow and coconut wax/oil. Mixtures of emollients can be used, and in some cases solid emollients may dissolve wholly or partly in liquid emollients or in combination the freezing point of the mixture may be suitably low. Where the emollient composition is a solid (such as fatty alcohols) at ambient temperature, the resulting dispersion may technically not be an emulsion (although in most cases the precise phase of the oily disperse phase cannot readily be determined) but such dispersions behave as if they were true emulsions and the term emulsion is used herein to include such compositions. In personal care products comprising water, the amount of water present is suitably greater than 5%, preferably in the range from 30 to 90%, more preferably 50 to 90%, particularly 70 to 85%, and especially 75 to 80% by weight of the total composition. CA 03076555 2020-03-19 WO 2019/089202 PCT/US2018/055178 -11- The water phase may include a polyol, e.g. glycerin. In this case, the total water phase including the polyol present in the personal care formulation is suitably greater than 5%, preferably in the range from 30 to 90%, more preferably 50 to 90%, particularly 70 to 85%, and especially 75 to 80% by weight of the total composition. The personal care products may further comprise cholesterol as an additional moisturisation component. When present, the cholesterol is present at an amount of 0.1 to 5% by weight of the total personal care product. The personal care product according to the present invention may also contain other additional surfactant materials which form part of the emulsifier system. Other suitable surfactants include relatively hydrophilic surfactants, e.g. having a HLB value of greater than 10, preferably greater than 12, and relatively hydrophobic surfactants e.g. having a HLB value of less than 10, preferably less than 8. Relatively hydrophilic surfactants include alkoxylate surfactants with an average in the range from about 10 to about 100 alkylene oxide, particularly ethylene oxide residues; and relatively hydrophobic surfactants include alkoxylate surfactants preferably with an average in the range from about 3 to about 10 alkylene oxide, particularly ethylene oxide residues. Personal care or cosmetic products can be divided by viscosity into milks and lotions, which preferably have a low shear viscosity (measured at shear rates of about 0.1 to 10 as is typically used in Brookfield viscometers) of up to 10,000 mPa.s, and creams which preferably have a low shear viscosity of more than 10,000 mPa.s. Milks and lotions preferably have a low shear viscosity in the range from 100 to 10,000, more preferably 200 to 5,000, and particularly 300 to 1,000 mPa.s. The amount of the compound or composition according to the present invention present in a milk or lotion is preferably in the range from 2 to 3% by weight of the total composition. Creams preferably have a low shear viscosity of at least 20,000, more preferably in the range from 30,000 to 80,000, and particularly 40,000 to 70,000 mPa.s, although even higher viscosities e.g. up to about 10 mPa.s, may also be used. The amount of compound or composition according to the present invention present in a cream is preferably in the range from 4 to 5.50/o by weight of the total composition. The personal care products of the invention may be made by conventional emulsification and mixing methods. For example, the compound or composition according to the present invention may be added to (I) the oil phase, which is then added to the aqueous phase, or (ii) both the combined oil and water phases, or (iii) the water phase, which is then added to the oil phase. Method (iii) is preferred. In all of these methods, the resulting mixture can then be emulsified using standard CA 03076555 2020-03-19 WO 2019/089202 PCT/US2018/055178 -12- techniques. It is preferred to either heat the aqueous and oil phases usually above about 600C, e.g. to about 80 to 850C, or to subject the aqueous phase to high intensity mixing at lower, e.g. about ambient, temperature. Vigorous mixing and the use of moderately elevated temperatures can be combined if desired. The heating and/or high intensity mixing can be carried out before, during or after addition of the oil phase but once emulsified, care should be taken not to destroy the liquid crystal system by excessive mixing or stirring. The personal care products can also be made by inverse emulsification methods, whereby the compound or composition according to the present invention is added to either the oil phase or the aqueous phase, and the aqueous phase is mixed into the oil phase to initially form a water in oil emulsion. Aqueous phase addition is continued until the system inverts to form an oil in water emulsion. Plainly a substantial amount of aqueous phase will generally be needed to effect inversion and so this method is not likely to be used for high oil phase content emulsions.

All parts and percentages are given by weight unless otherwise stated. It will be understood that all tests and physical properties listed have been determined at atmospheric pressure and ambient temperature (i.e. about 23 C), unless otherwise stated herein, or unless otherwise stated in the referenced test methods and procedures. Test Methods In this specification the following test methods have been used: (i) Emulsion stability was assessed by observing the emulsions after storage for 3 months at ambient temperature (23 C), cold at 5 C or under elevated temperature storage at 40 C, 45 C and 50 C. Measuring storage stability at 50 C is a severe test. The emulsions were also assessed for their freeze-thaw stability using a cycling oven (-10 C to 40 C in 24 hours). The composition was stable if no visible separation of the emulsion occurred. The stability of the emulsions was also assessed by monitoring the size of the dispersed phase water particles over a three month CA 03076555 2020-03-19 WO 2019/089202 PCT/US2018/055178 -15- period. The particle size was measured using a Malvern Mastersizer 2000 that measures the size of the dispersed phase particles using laser diffraction. (ii) Emulsion viscosity was measured at 230C with a Brookfield LVT viscometer using an appropriate spindle (LV1, LV2, LV3, or LV4) depending on the viscosity of the emulsion. The emulsion was tested at 10 rpm (0,1 Hz), 1 day after making the emulsion and results are quoted in mPa.s. (iii) The hydroxyl value is defined as the number of mg of potassium hydroxide equivalent to the hydroxyl content of 1 g of sample, and was measured by acetylation followed by hydrolysation of excess acetic anhydride. The acetic acid formed was subsequently titrated with an ethanolic potassium hydroxide solution. (iv) The acid value is defined as the number of mg of potassium hydroxide required to neutralize the free acids in 1 g of sample, and was measured by direct titration with a standard potassium hydroxide solution. (v) The particle size was determined according to ASTM method D1210 05(2014) Standard Test Method for Fineness of Dispersion of Pigment-Vehicle Systems by Hegman-Type Guage. Where mentioned herein, concentrations are given by weight based on the total weight of the compound / composition / formulation, Preparation Examples Exam,le 1: General method of preparation of a mixture composition of the invention comprising the RIC(0)-(0CH2CH2012)n-OR compound of the invention. First step of preparation of a precursor mixture composition comprising the R-(OCH2CH2CH2)n-OH compound. 3-10 moles of vegetable derived 1,3-propanediol, 1 mole of fatty alcohol of formula R-OH and concentrated sulfuric acid catalyst were added to a reaction flask with nitrogen inlet, mechanical stirrer and a distillation head, The mixture was heated to 150-1700C with a nitrogen sparge and held for 2.5 hours. The temperature was then increased to 175-2500C and held for up to 24 hours. At this point, the temperature was lowered to 750C and a 45% KOH solution and de-ionized water were added. The resulting aqueous mixture was held at 750C and stirred for 2-4 hours under nitrogen to hydrolyze the acid ester formed during the acid catalyzed polycondensation and to neutralize the residual acid. The reaction mixture was then allowed to stand for phase- separation with the bottom layer being the aqueous phase and the top layer being the organic phase. After the aqueous phase was removed, the organic phase was dried under vacuum and filtered. CA 03076555 2020-03-19 WO 2019/089202 PCT/US2018/055178 -16- This step resulted in the preparation of a mixture composition comprising mostly the monocapped ether compound H-(OCH2CHXH2)n-OR (in weight with regard to the total weight of the composition). The composition obtained also comprises in minor amount the dicapped compound R- (OCH2CH2C112)n-OR. Second step of esterification of the precursor mixture composition 1 mole of the product mixture prepared in the first step, 1 mole of fatty acid of formula R1COOH and 0.1 wiw% of tin II oxalate catalyst were added to a clean, dry flask with nitrogen inlet, mechanical stirrer and a distillation head. The reaction mixture was heated to and held at between 180-2200C while being tracked by acid value drop. Once an acid value of <2 was achieved, the batch was cooled to 900C, dried and filtered. This step resulted in the preparation of a composition mostly comprising the monocapped compound of the invention R1C(0)-(OCH2CH2CH2)n-OR and in minor amounts the dicapped compound of the invention R-(OCH2CH2CH-2)n-OR formed in the first step, and the diester compound R1C(0)-(OCH2C1-12CH2)n-0(CO)R1. No residual polypropane dial or free alcohol was detected. Preparation of isostearate-PPD5-istearyi according to this method First step: the procedure was conducted using 894 g of vegetable derived 1,3- propanediol, 657 g of isostearyl alcohol and 4.7 g concentrated sulfuric acid were added to a 3L. four-neck round bottom flask. After the reaction, 4.4 g of a 45% KOH solution and 320 g of de-ionized water were added and the resulting aqueous mixture was held at 750C and stirred for 4 hours under nitrogen. Second step: 439 g of the product PPD-5 isostearyl alcohol prepared in the first step, 237 g of isostearic acid and 0.8 g tin II oxalate catalyst were added to a clean, dry 1L. four-neck round bottom flask with nitrogen inlet, mechanical stirrer and a distillation head. The reaction mixture was heated to and held at between 180- 2200C while being tracked by acid value drop.

However, for simplification, the name "ester-PPDn-ether" is used in the text to designate the mixture. Example 3: Evaluation of caprate/caprylate-PPDS-isostearyl in color cosmetic products of the dispersing properties of inorganic solid pigments! dyes. The objective was to evaluate the pigment wetting capacity of the caprate/caprylate-PPD5-isostearyl of the invention compared to most commonly used dispersion emollient media in colour cosmetics namely: - Cromollientm DP3A, a di-ester of propoxyiated myristyl alcohol and adipic acid, marketed by Croda (INCI name: O1-PPG-3 Myristyl Ether Adipate); - Crodamolul GTCC, a caprate/caprylate triglyceride (INCI name: Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride); and CA 03076555 2020-03-19 WO 2019/089202 PCT/US2018/055178 -18- - Castor oil (INCI name: Ricinus Communis (Castor) Seed Oil). A red pigment (Red 7 Calcium Lake - INCI name: Cl 15850) at a ratio media/pigment of 55:45 was tested. Each emollient/media was mixed with this pigment and the dispersion formed was mixed with an overhead stirrer for 1/2hour, followed by three passes through a three roll mill. Viscosity test: Measurements of viscosity after stabilization (after 24hours) of the dispersions were taken with a Brookfield viscometer and are reported in the following table 3. Table 3: Viscosity in cps of the dispersions Emollient Viscosity (cps) Caprate/caprylate-PPD5-isostearyl 30,000 of the invention CromollientTM DP3A 25,000 CrodamolTM GTCC 5,000 Castor oil 250,000 Particle size test: The standardized test of Hegman Gauge and Fineness of Grind was used to approximate the particle size. It consists of placing a small volume of product on the deep end and drawing it with a straight scraper toward the shallow end. The position on the scale where oversize particle and their tracks appear is rated for determination of dispersion. The results are reported in the following table 4. Table 4: Particle size approximation in pm in the dispersions Emollient He.gman Gauge Caprate/caprylate-PPD5-isostearyl 4.25 pm of the invention Cromollientm DP3A 7.00 pm Crodamol" GTCC 11.00 pm Castor oil 5.75 pm Lower viscosity is not directly proportional to better pigment dispersion. This is shown by the results above for the Crodamol GTCC exhibiting the lowest viscosity (5,000cps) but the highest particle size (11.00pm) in the dispersion. In fact, dispersion mixture needs to be optimal and requires that pigmentary particle size is significantly reduced to prevent any agglomeration or re- agglomeration. A typical pigment dispersion particle size is 5 pm. Below 5pm depicts superiority in the dispersion. A synergy between low particle size dispersion and a satisfactory viscosity is more favorable than a low viscosity evaluation alone. The caprateicaprylate-PPD5-isostearyl of the invention exhibits a particle size below 5 pm together with a satisfactory viscosity level comparable to conventional used emollient like the Cromollient"DP3A. CA 03076555 2020-03-19 WO 2019/089202 PCT/US2018/055178 -19- Color intensity via Colorimetry The color intensity was performed by evaluating the L* and a* values of each dispersion. Defined by the "Commission Internationale de l'Eclairage" (CIE), the Vet)* color space was modeled after a color-opponent theory stating that two colors cannot be red and green at the same time or yellow and blue at the same time. L* indicates lightness/darkness of the sample. a* is the red/green coordinate. b* is the yellow/blue coordinate. The following table 6 shows the results. Table 6: Emollient 1* a* b* c* I h* Caprate/caprylate-PPD5-isostearyl 32.35 33.60 15.68 37.10 25.10 of the invention CromollienC4 DP3A 32.45 32.13 15.58 35.71 25.87 CrodamolTM GTCC 32.45 35.33 16.96 39.19 25.64 Castor oil 31.30 _ 36.78 12.78 38.97 19.31 Cromollient DP3A and Crodamol GTCC exhibit the lightest sample tested and the highest red coordinate belongs to castor oil. Overall, the lightness result of the compound of the invention (32.35) is only 0.10% different than its counterparts Cromollient DP3A and Crodamol GTCC (32.45), and the redness/red color intensity for the caprate/caprylate-PPD5-isostearyl of the invention (33.60) is 8.00% different than the emollient that exhibits the highest color vibrancy. It can be concluded, therefore, that the color intensity of pigment dispersions with the compound of the invention is comparable to conventional used emollients. Examole 4: Personal care or cosmetic products according to the invention The compounds of the invention have very good compatibility with many different types of skin care systems ranging from sticks, waxes, pigments, lotions, sunscreens, with excellent stability as for example shown by the following test. Stability test: A wax system was made for a simple lip balm chassis. The system consisted of waxes and super sterol ester. Two systems were made, one with the Cromollient- Im DP3A, and another with the caprateicaprylate-PPD5-isostearyl of the invention using 12% of each. Both were placed in 50 C oven for 24hours. The lip balm with the Cromollient im DP3A experienced significant sweating while the system with the compound of the invention was completely intact and unchanged. Examples of other personal care and cosmetic products according to the invention are given below.
