Description

A hair cosmetic composition comprising an extract of Aphanizomenon Flos-Aquae,

The present invention relates to a hair cosmetic composition comprising cyanobacteria, and more particularly to a hair cosmetic composition comprising an extract of Aphanizomenon Flos-Aquae .

Hair cosmetics generally have a function for hair removal that removes contamination of the scalp and hair, and keeps the hair clean and beautiful. In addition to the above functions, the hair cosmetic composition is also used for additional purposes such as ease of combing, softness to the hair, smoothness, luster, deterioration of the surface of the hair, antistatic or hair protection.

In order to impart a conditioning effect to the hair, the hair cosmetic composition generally comprises a cationic surfactant, a cationic polymer or silicone and the like. These chemical ingredients can also cause hair, pore or scalp problems, and silicone oil has the disadvantage that it makes the hair dry after use. In addition, hair damaged by dyeing, perming, excessive drying of the hair, or ultraviolet rays has a problem that the elasticity is reduced and the degree of smoothness is reduced. Hair is a constituent of lipids and contains wax esters and various fatty acids. Damaged hair has a problem in that lipids are eluted out and lipids are deficient.

Aphanizomenon Flos-Aquae (AFA) is a kind of cyanobacteria. When the apanicomonas flos-aqua is dried at about 40 ° C with oxygen for 2 minutes, 65-75% by weight of the protein powder in dry weight can be obtained. It is named as the name of the INCI registered name of the Aphanizomeon flos-aqua (AFA) extract.

The Acinetobacter flonus acuqua extract is a microbial extract of high nutrient group containing 17 kinds of minerals, 13 kinds of vitamins and 4 kinds of fatty acids as well as 20 kinds of amino acids including essential amino acids. Most of the protein in the extract is a glycoprotein, and the absorption rate thereof is remarkably high, and it can be an excellent nutrient source for the brain and nervous system. In addition, aphanizomenone floss-aqua contains a large amount of fatty acid in order to live in a cold place. In particular, omega-3 and omega-6 store cholesterol and increase HDL, the balance of omega-3 and omega-6 in the extract is similar to that required for the human body.

In addition, the Aphanizomenon floss-aqua extract is rich in choline not contained in ordinary cyanobacteria. Such choline is an important substance constituting acetylcholine which is a cell membrane or neurotransmitter such as brain nervous system or liver. As a result, apnisomone flos-aqua is used as a health supplement food or neurotherapeutic in developed countries including the United States. In addition, International Patent Publication No. WO 2015-049549 A1 discloses an effect of accelerating hair growth of a composition containing an apnisomonon flucose-acoe extract.

The Aphanomycein Flos-aqua (AFA) extract used in the following examples was obtained from LiquaDry, an overseas raw material producer, and used raw materials imported through JANSONLEE CORPORATION.

Experimental Example  1: Evaluation of friction coefficient during hair absorption

In order to evaluate the friction coefficient of the AFA extract of the present invention during hair adsorption, the following Examples and Comparative Examples were prepared as follows. In Comparative Example 1, hair was subjected to no treatment. In Comparative Example 2, hair soaked in water for 1 hour was used. In the examples, the hair immersed in water containing AFA was used. The time for soaking the hair was 10 minutes for Example 1, 20 minutes for Example 2, and 1 hour for Example 3. The hair was made of Burex (BS-A) hair having a constant direction from the root of the hair to the end of the hair.

1 g of each of the above hair tresses was immersed in 500 ml of distilled water, and the same amount of hair was immersed in a solution of 3% of AFA extract in distilled water or distilled water. The hair was allowed to stand for 24 hours at a temperature of 25 ° C and a humidity of 55% for one day. When the surface is scanned while varying the vertical drag value N of the tip (LFMR, Nanosensors) with atomic force microscopy (AFM, Park Systems model XE-100) , And the friction coefficient μ 'was evaluated through the force F received by the tip.

In the results shown in Table 1, the coefficient of friction of the AFA extract component adsorbed on the surface of the hair or absorbed therein was remarkably reduced as compared with the comparative example. This confirms that the AFA extract enhances the smooth conditioning effect on the hair. In Examples 1, 2 and 3, the degree of smoothness of the hair increased 10 minutes after soaking in water containing AFA, and it can be confirmed that hair becomes smoother as absorption and adsorption time become longer.

Experimental Example  2: hair Cuticle  Evaluating the hardness of the layer

To investigate the effect of AFA extract on the hardness of the hair surface, the hardness of the hair surface was evaluated in a nanoindenter mode of AFM. The shampoo compositions were prepared in a conventional manner according to the prescription shown in Table 2 below.

Shampoo prescription Compounding ingredient Weight ratio (%) AFA 3 Cationic polymer 0.3 Anionic surfactant 8 Amphoteric surfactant 4.5 EDTA 4Na, function citric acid 0.1 Other ingredients 16 Purified water Remaining amount (to 100)

The cationic polymer was prepared by selecting a cellulosic polymer and a guar polymer. Since the cellulose polymer is excellent in solubility, EDTA 4Na was added to dissolve the polymer, and the pH was neutralized by adding citric acid. However, since the guar polymer has excellent solubility in acidity, the polymer was added and citric acid was added, followed by EDTA 4Na for pH neutralization and chelating. Other ingredients were added preservatives, flavors, dispersants, viscosity regulators and pH adjusting agents.

The shampoo composition was applied to a burex hair tress at a rate of 10% by weight, bubbled for 15 seconds, rubbed for 20 seconds, combed five times, and rinsed for 2 minutes in running tap water at 37 ° C, . After that, the hair was dried with a dryer for 2 minutes, and kept at 25 캜 for one day under the same humidity conditions as shown in Table 3, thereby making the moisture in the hair constant. Then, using AFM, a force of 1 μm perpendicular to the surface was measured using a nano tip having a radius of 35 nm (NSC36 Cr-Au, Mikromasch), and the force applied was measured in 10 zones for each of 15 hairs and averaged.

Since the external humidity influences the humidity inside the hair, it is possible to induce a change in the hardness in the hair. Therefore, the change in hardness according to various external humidity is evaluated as shown in Table 3 below. The hair was placed in a moisture-sealed box (1m × 1m × 1m) for 24 hours and evaluated.

Hardness change (N / m) sample Humidity 45% Humidity 55% Humidity 65% Classification of experiments Comparative Example 3 Example 4 Comparative Example 4 Example 5 Comparative Example 5 Example 6 Cellulose Polymer A Shampoo 17.9 ± 1.2 20.7 ± 1.1 17.2 ± 1.1 22.2 ± 1.3 17.1 + 1.7 21.7 ± 1.5 Cellulose polymer B containing shampoo 18.2 ± 0.8 19.3 ± 0.4 16.8 ± 0.9 21.4 ± 0.9 16.7 ± 1.2 20.4 ± 1.1 Guam Polymer C Shampoo 19.8 ± 0.7 22.0 ± 0.5 18.8 ± 2.0 24.4 ± 0.6 17.8 ± 1.5 22.2 ± 1.3 Guam polymer D-containing shampoo 19.3 ± 0.5 21.3 ± 0.4 17.9 ± 1.5 24.1 ± 0.4 17.2 ± 1.1 21.8 ± 1.1 Synthetic polymer E-containing shampoo 20.1 ± 0.8 21.7 ± 0.6 19.2 ± 1.8 24.8 ± 0.4 17.0 ± 1.2 22.8 ± 1.2

In Comparative Examples 3 to 5, the hardness of the hair before shampooing was used, and Examples 4 to 6 were values obtained by evaluating the hardness after the shampoo treatment. As shown in Table 3, although hardness values of the hair vary depending on the humidity, it can be confirmed that the hardness of the hair is increased after treating the shampoo containing the AFA extract in common.

Experimental Example  3: Evaluation of tensile strength of hair

Table 4 below shows the tensile strength of the hair. Fifteen hairs were randomly selected from 1 g of hair treated with the shampoo, and the tensile strength of each hairs was measured by MTT 175 instrument (DiaStrong, GB). Since the tensile strength is proportional to the thickness of the hair fibers, the long and short axes of the hair were measured with a laser LSM-501S instrument (Mitutoyo, Japan), and then the sectional area of the hair was calculated to determine the tensile strength versus the cross-sectional area. The average value of tensile strength is shown in Table 4 below.

In Comparative Example a, 1 g of hair was immersed in 500 ml of distilled water for 10 minutes, and the hair was air-dried at a temperature of 50% and 25 ° C for one day to evaluate the tensile strength. The above Example a was put into a mixed solution prepared by adding 3% by weight of AFA extract to the distilled water used in Comparative Example a, and the hair was dried under the same conditions as in Comparative Example a.

In Comparative Examples b, b, c and c, shampoos containing a cellulose polymer were evaluated with hair before and after treatment as shown in Table 2 above. Comparative Example d, Example d, Comparative Example e and Example e were evaluated with hair before and after treatment of a shampoo containing a guar polymer as shown in Table 2 above. In Comparative Examples f and f, a conditioning shampoo containing a synthetic polymer was used to evaluate the tensile strength improving effect of the AFA extract.

Since the thickness of the fibers including hair showed a correlation proportional to the tensile strength, the tensile strength value was divided by the sectional area value of the same hair, and the effect of changing the tensile strength of the total 15 hair was compared with the average value. As a result, when the shampoo containing the AFA extract was treated, it was confirmed that the tensile strength was increased by 1% or more.

The results shown in Tables 3 and 4 show that when the AFA extract is coated on the hair, the lipid of the AFA extract is adsorbed or absorbed on the surface, and the hair hardness is significantly improved. In addition, the AFA extract imparts a conditioning effect that imparts smoothness to the surface of the hair, thereby confirming that it is a component of an excellent hair conditioning cosmetic composition while imparting elasticity to the hair.
