Definitions
- the invention relates to cosmetic and pharmaceutical formulations. More specifically, the invention relates to nanoemulsions which may be transparent or translucent, and contain low levels of emulsifiers.
- Transparent emulsions can be prepared in the form of microemulsions, in which the dispersed phase is essentially solubihzed in the continuous phase by the action of a surfactant, and often, a cosurfactant. Rather than discrete isolated dispersed phase droplets, micelles comprising an inner core of the disperse phase material surrounded by a layer of surfactant are formed These systems upon formation are normally clear, forming very small micellar droplets, but ordinarily require fairly large quantities of surfactant. Normally, it is desirable to keep surfactant levels low in cosmetic compositions, however, because they can strip the skin of its natural hpid barrier, and thus leave the skin more susceptible to irritants.
- a nanoemulsion is defined as an oil-m-water emulsion in which the size of the dispersed oil droplets is less than 100 nm.
- Nanoemulsions provide an elegant, translucent or transparent vehicle that can be used for a variety of different product types.
- the nanoemulsion is a system in very delicate balance, subject to disruption if the wrong component is added, and not ordinarily capable of taking on too much oil.
- the known nanoemulsion systems may rely on the presence of relatively high levels of emulsifiers that are considered irritating, such as ethoxylated fatty ethers and esters.
- a truly desirable nanoemulsion should retain its transparency or translucency, be able to accommodate a reasonable amount of additives, such as fragrance or actives, while remaining stable, and utilize a low level of non-imtatmg emulsifiers, so as to remain mild and gentle on the skin of the user.
- the present invention provides such a nanoemulsion.
- the present invention relates to stable oil-in-water nanoemulsions comprising as its principle emulsifier a ternary system of surfactants comprising a cationic, anionic and bridging surfactant.
- the system is believed to provide a unique complex which, even when used at low levels, in combination with standard emulsion components, yields an attractive, translucent or transparent product that has a variety of possible uses.
- the components of the ternary system are used in a molar ratio of approximately 1: >1: ⁇ 1 anionic: bridging: cationic, preferably with a range of up from about 1 : 1 :0.1 up to about 1 :3: 1, and also preferably with an overall approximately neutral charge.
- the oil- in- water nanoemulsions of the invention are prepared in much the same way as are other nanoemulsions.
- the aqueous phase may be any cosmetically acceptable water based material, such as deionized water, or a floral water.
- the oil phase may be any cosmetically or pharmaceutically acceptable oil, such an oil being defined for the present purpose as any pharmaceutically or cosmetically acceptable material which is substantially insoluble in water.
- the oils can perform different functions in the composition, the specific choice is dependent on the purpose for which it is intended.
- the oils may be volatile or non-volatile, or a mixture of both.
- suitable volatile oils include, but are not limited to, both cyclic and linear sihcones, such as octamethylcyclotetrasiloxane and decamethylcyclopentasiloxane; or straight or branched chain hydrocarbons having from 8-20 carbon atoms, such as decane, dodecane, tridecane, tetradecane, and C8-20 isoparaffins.
- Non-volatile oils include, but are not limited to, vegetable oils, such as coconut oil, jojoba oil, sunflower oil, palm oil, soybean oil; carboxylic acid esters such as isostearyl neopentanoate, cetyl octanoate, cetyl ⁇ cinoleate, octyl palmitate, dioctyl malate, coco-dicaprylate/caprate, decyl isostearate, my ⁇ styl my ⁇ state; animal oils such as lanolm and lanolin derivatives, tallow, mink oil or cholesterol; glyceryl esters, such as glyceryl stearate, glyceryl dioleate, glyceryl distearate, glyceryl lmoleate, glyceryl my ⁇ state; non-volatile sihcones, such as dimethicone, dimethiconol, dimethicone copolyol, phenyl trim
- Water ordinarily will constitute from about 40-70% of the total emulsion, preferably about 50- 65%, while the oil is ordinarily about 5-30% and preferably about 10-20% of the emulsion as a whole
- the ternary surfactant used is ordinarily added to the phase in which it is most compatible, using heat if necessary to accomplish better solubility or dispersibility, along with any active components which may be desired in the emulsion, and all components mixed together at low pressure.
- the mixture is then subjected to high pressure mixing.
- high pressure in the present context is meant a pressure of at least about 10,000 psi to about 20,000 psi; preferably about 11-17,000 psi.
- the emulsion is subjected to at least two passes, more preferably at least three passes under high pressure. There is no upper limit to the number of passes, but there appears to be no major improvement to be achieved after about seven passes.
- the preferred equipment is a microfluidizer, such as is available from Microfluidics. However, other suitable high pressure equipment is sold under the brand names Niro Soavi and Rannie.
- the particle size distribution is normally narrow, and very small, less than lOOnm, preferably with an average size of about 30-50 nm.
- a crucial element of the nanoemulsion is the ternary surfactant system used to emulsify the nanoemulsion.
- the system comprises three essential elements, namely at least one anionic surfactant, at least one cationic surfactant and at least one bridging surfactant.
- Systems of this type are available commercially as premade blends from Stepan Company, Northfield Illinois, identified as their C-A-N technology.

- Polyhyd ⁇ c alcohols if used, will be used in an amount of from about greater than zero to about 10%, preferably about 1-5%, by weight of the total composition.
- compositions with active agents or additives appropriate to the intended use.
- active agents or additives appropriate to the intended use.
- the preferred use of the compositions are as pharmaceutical or cosmetic vehicles, for application to the skin or hair.
- the nanoemulsions of the invention in part because of the presence of the cationic surfactant, provide a very efficient delivery system for a wide variety of active components.
- the formulations are highly substantive to skin and hair, the emulsifying system exhibits a substantial degree of water resistance, and also potentially contributes to the preservation of the formulation as a whole .

- non-therapeutic or non-active agents such as emollients, flavors, colorants, fragrances, gellants, thickeners, sunscreens, and the like, which enhance the ultimate use of the product, particularly for topical cosmetic or pharmaceutical purposes, and provided care is taken to avoid choosing components that will interfere with the clarity of the product.
- the final product can take the form of a milk, cream, lotion, gel, serum, or liquid spray, among others.
- a particularly interesting use of the nanoemulsions of the invention is in the preparation of sunscreen formulations. It has been difficult to achieve a translucent product with the addition of sunscreens to other types of nanoemulsions.
- the nanoemulsions of the invention may therefore incorporate one or more sunscreen agents, such as benzophenones, avobenzone, cmnamates, sahcylates, and the like.
- a nanoemulsion of the following composition is prepared:
- the components above are combined as follows: The water phase components (Phase I) are heated to 65°C, and the oil phase components (Phase II) are heated to 75°C When both phases have reached the proper temperature, the oil phase is added to the water phase under a Silverson homogenizer at about 5000-6000 rpm. This batch is then passed through a microfluidizer once, at a pressure of about 13,000-17,000 psi. The Phase III components are added under the Silverson homogenizer at about 5000-6000 rpm, and then the entire product is passed through a microfluidizer three more times. The resulting product is a translucent nanoemulsion which is stable for at least 4 weeks at 50°C.
- Additional nanoemulsions are prepared using the following surfactant blends(all QS water to 100%):
- a sunscreen-containing nanoemulsion is prepared as follows:
- the formula described above is prepared as follows: The water phase and surfactant blend are heated to 65°C. The oil phase is heated to 75°C, and homogenized into the water. The mixture is passed through the microfluidizer once, and cooled to 30°C Phases III and IV are added in sequence, then phase V is added. The resulting mixture is then passed through the microfluidizer as described in Example 1.
