Definitions
- the present invention relates to an easily spreadable topical composition.
- pots with a removable, sometimes rotatable lid are used. Pots as used in the cosmetic and pharmaceutical industry are often sealed with a peelable liner made of aluminum, plastic or paper before attaching the lid. Direct contact of the topical composition with the peelable liner is undesired but difficult to avoid in case the topical composition is flowable.
- cosmetic pots are made of glass or plastic. They often have a diameter of less than 20 cm. Such pots are mostly used to store, transport or sell compositions for topical use on consumer's skin. An example of such a pot is shown in FIGU RE 1.
- the topical composition in the pot is a solid wax.
- the topical composition is a flowable composition. At room temperature, most skin creams are at least to a certain extent flowable.
- the composition comprises water, at least one lipophilic ingredient and hydroxystearic acid. It is thick in appearance and as such, the composition is firm enough to avoid the contact with the lid and/or peelable liner of a pot during transportation. Surprisingly, the composition can be easily spread onto the skin despite of its firmness.

- Compositions comprising 10-hydroxystearic acid have an increased firmness but are nonetheless easily spreadable. An increase of the composition's firmness avoids contact of the composition with the pot's closure even if transportation is rough. If an increased amount of hydroxystearic acid is used, the composition of the invention may be hard enough to produce a cosmetic stick. When applied to the skin, the part of the composition forming the top of the stick changes its

- the composition comprises hydroxystearic acid in an amount of at least 2 weight% and preferably in an amount of at least 3 weight%, wherein the composition comprises preferably less than 10 weight% of hydroxystearic acid.
- "weight%" refers to the amount based on the total weight of the composition.
- One embodiment of the invention relates to the use of hydroxystearic acid for preparing a composition with a firmness of at least 0.1 kg.
- the required firmness is achieved if the composition comprising water, at least one lipophilic ingredient and hydroxystearic acid is prepared according to the invention.
- Methods for preparing emulsions are well known to the person skilled in the art. These methods encompass homogenization of an oil phase and of a water phase under high shear stress at elevated temperature. After homogenization, the mixture is allowed to cool down or is cooled down by a cooling medium such as cold water. During the cool down phase, the mixture is agitated e.g. by stirring at low shear. Said stirring is done for various reasons (e.g. to accelerate cooling, to cool down the inner parts of a large batch etc.). This is where the method of the invention differs from the state of the art. According to the invention, stirring must be stopped before the homogenized mixture (i.e. the emulsion) reaches room temperature.
- the hot mixture is filled into smaller containers (such as cosmetic pots or canisters) in order to cool down to room temperature in said containers. After having reached room temperature, the cosmetic pots etc. are ready to be sold. If stirring is not stopped before the homogenized mixture reaches room temperature, the final composition is not a yield-pseudoplastic fluid with the required firm texture.
- phase A mix ingredients of phase A and heat up to more than 70°C, said phase A comprising water and any other optional ingredient;
- phase B mix ingredients of phase B and heat up to more than 70°C, said phase B comprising hydroxystearic acid, at least one lipophilic ingredient and preferably at least one emulsifier;
- hydroxystearic acid is preferably 10-hydroxystearic acid, 12-hydroxystearic acid or a mixture thereof.
- phase A For homogenization, high shear is applied (e.g. Ultra Turrax ® ; 13500 rpm). The aim of homogenization is providing an emulsion of phase A and phase B.
- an emulsion comprising water, at least one lipophilic ingredient, hydroxystearic acid and preferably at least one emulsifier;
- hydroxystearic acid is preferably 10-hydroxystearic acid, 12-hydroxystearic acid or a mixture thereof.
- the emulsion is prepared at elevated temperature under vigorous agitation.
- the containers are cosmetics pots which can be used for selling the composition.
- the hot emulsion is preferably filled in a canister with a dome-shaped end, a cone-shaped end or a flat end.
- the present invention also relates to a composition prepared according the described method.
- One embodiment of the invention relates to a composition prepared by a method comprising the steps:
- an emulsion comprising water, hydroxystearic acid, at least one lipophilic ingredient and preferably at least one emulsifier to cool down under agitation, such as stirring;
- hydroxystearic acid is preferably 10-hydroxystearic acid, 12-hydroxystearic acid or a mixture thereof.
- stirring refers preferably to low shear stirring (i.e. less than 300 rpm).
- an emulsion comprising at least 70 weight% water, between 0.1 and 3 weight% hydroxystearic acid, at least one lipophilic ingredient and preferably at least one emulsifier;
- hydroxystearic acid is preferably 10-hydroxystearic acid, 12-hydroxystearic acid or a mixture thereof.
- composition according to the invention is resistant to flow and has a firm texture, it can be spread with ease on the skin or any other surface. This unexpected change of texture and the cooling effect which goes along with the change of texture is highly appreciated by consumers of cosmetic products.
- the texture of the composition is facilitated by a three-dimensional network. If said three- dimensional network is destroyed (e.g. by spreading/stirring), the composition becomes fluid. During spreading, a cooling effect is sensed on the skin, possibly because of the destruction of the network requires energy.
- Curves in a rheogram, showing the shear stress on the y-axis and showing the shear rate on the x-axis are referred to as flow curves.
- Flow curves of Newtonian fluids are linear and pass through the origin.
- Flow curves of non-Newtonian fluids are nonlinear and/or do not pass through the origin.
- Some non-Newtonian fluids show visco-plastic fluid behavior, i.e. a yield stress must be exceeded for the composition to flow. If the externally applied stress is less than the yield stress, the composition is non-flowable, i.e. behaves like an elastic solid or a rigid body. If the externally applied stress is more than the yield stress, the structure breaks down and the composition begins to flow.
- the composition is called a Bingham plastic fluid. If the composition shows shear-thinning once the applied stress is more than the yield stress, the composition is referred to as yield-pseudoplastic fluid.
- the corresponding flow curve is not linear; the curve's slope decreases as the share rate is increased. A more detailed description of these terms can be found for example in "Non- Newtonian Fluids: An Introduction” by Chhabra, Rajendra P., Rheology of Complex Fluids, 2010, p3-34, 32p.
- the composition according to the invention is a yield-pseudoplastic fluid.
- yield-pseudoplastic fluid refers to a composition (i) wherein a yield stress must be exceeded for the composition to flow and (ii) wherein the slope of the shear stress versus shear rate curve of the composition decreases to approximate zero at a shear rate of approximately 450/s.
- This is to be understood as a qualitative description of the flow curve and has to be seen in contrast to the flow curve of a Bingham plastic fluid, said flow curve becoming approximately linear as the shear stress is increased (cf. FIGU RES 2, 3, and 4).
- the composition is a yield-pseudoplastic fluid comprising:
- hydroxystearic acid is preferably 10-hydroxystearic acid, 12-hydroxystearic acid or a mixture thereof.
- the difference between the shear stress of the composition at a shear rate of 400/s and the shear stress of the same composition at a shear rate of 600/s is less than 20 Pa, more preferably less than 10 Pa and most preferably less than 5 Pa.
- “difference” refers to the absolute value, i.e. the non-negative value without regard to its sign.
- the composition is a yield-pseudoplastic fluid, wherein the difference between the shear stress of the composition at a shear rate of 400/s and the shear stress of the same composition at a shear rate of 800/s is less than 40 Pa, preferably less than 30 Pa and most preferably less than 20 Pa. This is referred to as a curve having a plateau.
- the composition is a yield- pseudoplastic fluid, wherein the difference between the shear stress of the composition at a shear rate of 200/s and the shear stress of the same composition at a shear rate of 800/s is less than 80 Pa, preferably less than 70 Pa and most preferably less than 60 Pa.
- the plot of shear stress versus shear rate of a Bingham plastic fluid approximates a straight line with a constant slope being > 0, provided a shear rate of 700/s is not exceeded.
- the manufacturing process according to the invention must be followed.
- the discussed rheological properties do not depend on the specific ingredients of the composition, provided the composition comprises a suitable hydroxystearic acid. If stearic acid instead of hydroxystearic acid is used, the resulting composition is a Bingham plastic fluid as describe above, even if the manufacturing process according to the invention is used.
- the composition of the invention does not flow until the shear stress reaches a critical transition point.
- the stress at this point is known as yield stress.
- the system acts like a more or less elastic solid.
- a relatively high yield stress helps avoiding the contact of the composition filled in cosmetic pot with the pot's lid and/or peelable liner during transportation.
- hydroxystearic acid is used to increase the yield stress of a yield-pseudoplastic fluid.
- yield-pseudoplastic fluids comprising less than 10 weight% of hydroxystearic acid are easily spreadable, regardless of their yield stress.
- Texture attributes such as firmness may be mechanically tested, e.g. by using the engineering concept of penetration resistance.
- Penetration resistance testing involves the insertion of a probe (e.g. a metallic cylinder) into a composition with a certain firmness. The test is stopped at a predetermined depth of penetration before the probe reaches the plate holding the composition to be tested. The results of such testing can determine changes of the texture of a composition whose firmness is a measure of a quality.
- a probe e.g. a metallic cylinder
- the penetration resistance test is conducted at constant velocity, i.e. with a predetermined speed of the probe.
- the speed of the probe i.e. the penetration rate
- time corresponds to the distance of penetration into the composition.
- the force necessary to maintain the pre-determined speed depends on the texture of the composition and is expressed in [kg].
- pre-determined speed of the probe 2 mm/s
- pre-determined depth of penetration 5 mm
- the value of force to maintain the predetermined speed of the probe usually increases over time and reaches a maximum at the point of deepest penetration.
- breaking point the breaking point may be the peak of a shoulder.
- a composition has a "breaking point" if the maximum force occurs before the probe reaches a depth of 5 mm and before the probe reaches the plate holding the composition to be tested, wherein a probe is forced into said composition at a pre-determined speed at room temperature and wherein the force necessary to maintain a pre-determined speed is measured.
- the above mentioned test conditions apply (room temperature, metallic cylinder having a diameter of 2 cm, speed of the probe: 2 mm/s).
- the pre-determined depth of penetration is 5 mm.
- any maximum force occurring at a penetration depth of 5 mm or more than 5 mm is not considered as a breaking point.
- One embodiment of the invention relates to a composition comprising water, at least one lipophilic ingredient and hydroxystearic acid, wherein said composition has a breaking point when penetration resistance is tested.
- WO 2014/009079 discloses semi-solid food gel which shows a breaking point in the first penetration cycle of two consecutive penetrations.
- a breaking point is observed in the first cycle of the penetration test only. If the probe is withdrawn to perform a second cycle, the maximum force is observed at the maximum depth of penetration. A breaking point occurring only in the first of two consecutive penetrations indicates the irreversible deformation of the composition's structure during the first cycle.
- the texture of the composition according to the invention is facilitated by a three-dimensional network.
- relatively high force is needed to break/destroy said network. Therefore, the maximum force is observed as a breaking point before reaching the pre-determined depth of penetration. The destruction of the network is irreversible and thus, no breaking point is observed in the second cycle of the penetration test.
- a breaking point is not observed (i) if stearic acid is used instead of hydroxystearic acid and/or (ii) if the composition has not been prepared according to the invention.
- the value of the maximum force at the breaking point depends on the texture of the composition. In case of a very firm but penetrable composition, the maximum force is relatively high.
- composition without a "breaking point” does not have a "firmness” expressed in [kg].
- One embodiment of the invention relates to a composition comprising water, at least one lipophilic ingredient and hydroxystearic acid, wherein said composition has a firmness of at least 0.1 kg, preferably of at least 0.15 kg and most preferably of at least 0.16 kg.
- One embodiment of the invention relates to the use of hydroxystearic acid for preparing a composition with a breaking point, wherein the composition has preferably a firmness of at least 0.1 kg, and wherein said hydroxystearic acid is preferably 10-hydroxystearic acid, 12-hydroxystearic acid or a mixture thereof.
- the composition comprises water, at least one lipophilic ingredient and hydroxystearic acid and has a firmness of at least 0.1 kg, wherein the difference between the shear stress of the composition at a shear rate of 400/s and the shear stress of the same composition at a shear rate of 600/s is less than 20 Pa.
- hydroxystearic acid is preferably 10-hydroxystearic acid, 12-hydroxystearic acid or a mixture thereof, and wherein hydroxystearic acid is most preferably 10-hydroxystearic acid.
- compositions of the invention are spreadable despite of having a firm texture, an increased firmness is a desired feature: The higher the firmness of the
- the present invention also relates to the use of 10-hydroxystearic acid for increasing the firmness of a yield- pseudoplastic fluid, wherein said composition is preferably a cosmetic composition.
- One embodiment of the invention relates to a composition
- a composition comprising water, at least one lipophilic ingredient and 10-hydroxystearic acid, wherein said composition has a firmness of at least 0.2 kg, preferably of at least 0.3 kg and most preferably of at least 0.4 kg.

- the force to maintain a penetration rate of 2 mm/s exceeds 0.1 kg before a penetration depth of 1 mm is reached.

- the flow curve of comparative composition 452 resembles the flow curve of a Bingham plastic fluid, i.e. the plot of shear stress versus shear rate approximates a straight line with a constant slope as the shear rate is increased. No plateau has been reached when the measurement is stopped at a shear rate of 1000/s. The shear stress at a shear rate of 600/s is higher than the shear stress at a shear rate of 400/s.
- compositions (453 and 454) are prepared, similar to the compositions example 1.
- 12-hydroxystearic acid instead of 10-hydroxystearic acid is used:
- compositions 453 and 454 have the same ingredients in the same quantities, the manufacturing process is different (similar to example 1). Due to the differences in the manufacturing process, ready-to-use compositions 453 and 454 have a different texture, resulting in different rheological properties.

- phase B mix all ingredients of phase B and heat up to 75-80°C add phase B to phase A and homogenize with high shear (Ultra-Turrax ® 13500 rpm)
- composition cool down under stirring (low shear) until the composition reaches room temperature. Once the composition has reached room temperature, the composition is still flowable.
- compositions 455 and 456 are shown in FIGU RE 4.
- the same equipment and test parameters as in examples 1 and 2 are used.
- the flow curves of comparative composition 455 and 456 resembles the flow curve of a Bingham plastic fluid, i.e. the plot of shear stress versus shear rate approximates a straight line with a constant slope, provided a shear rate of 700/s is not exceeded. No plateau is reached at shear rates between 400/s and 600/s. The shear stress at a shear rate of 600/s is higher than the shear stress at a shear rate of 400/s.
- the flow curve of composition 455 resembles the flow curve of composition 456, i.e. using the manufacturing process according to the invention does not result in a plateau when using stearic acid instead of hydroxystearic acid.
- Example 4 A penetrometer TAXT plus Texture Analyzer of the company Stable Micro Systems is used for measuring the penetration resistance.
- composition 451 (10-hydroxystearic acid), composition 453 (12-hydroxystearic acid) and composition 455 (stearic acid) is shown. All of these compositions have been prepared according to the invention, i.e. stirring has been stopped before the respective mixture reaches room temperature.
- the value for the maximum force, corresponding to the firmness of the composition is different.
- firmness is approximately 0.2 kg
- firmness for the composition 12-hydroxystearic acid is below 0.15 kg.
- 10- hydroxystearic acid is preferred because the corresponding compositions are particularly firm when the manufacturing process of the invention is used.
- compositions comprising 10-hydroxystearic acid are easily spreadable on the skin.
- composition 451 the penetration resistance data of composition 451 is compared to the data of composition 452.
- both compositions comprise 10-hydroxystearic acid
- only composition 451 has been prepared according to the invention.
- the maximum force is reached before the deepest point of penetration.
- the maximum force is reached at the deepest point of penetration despite that compositions 451 and 452 have the same ingredients.
- the same observation applies mutatis mutandis to compositions 453 and 454, both containing 12-hydroxystearic acid (see FIGU RE 7).
- Examples 1, 2, 3 and 4 illustrate the importance of the manufacturing process: A composition which is easily spreadable despite of having a firm texture is achieved (i) if stirring is stopped before the respective mixture reaches room temperature and (ii) if hydroxystearic acid instead of stearic acid is used. Accordingly, a composition prepared according the claimed manufacturing process is the focus of the present invention. Such composition solves the problem underlying the present invention. A particularly firm but nonetheless easily spreadable composition is prepared when 10-hydroxystearic acid is used.
- a cosmetic stick comprising water, at least one lipophilic ingredient and 10- hydroxystearic acid is prepared.
- Said stick is made of composition 470.
- a higher amount of 10-hydroxystearic acid is used in composition 470.
- phase B adds phase B to phase A and homogenize with high shear (Ultra-Turrax ® , 13500 rpm)
- a suitable canister which optionally has a plastic dome cap at one end continue to cool down the composition to room temperature in the canister.
- the composition hardens, optionally forming a dome shape end inside the plastic dome cap.
- the finished stick looks like an AP-DEO (antiperspirant-deodorant) stick. Although it is significantly softer than an AP-DEO stick, it is sufficiently solid and rigid to ensure its resistance at the time of its application. When applied to the skin, the part of the composition forming the top of the stick changes its texture/hardness and becomes easily spreadable onto the skin.
- AP-DEO antiperspirant-deodorant
