COLLAGEN FREE COSMETIC PREPARATIONS
Field of the Invention
The invention belongs to the field of cosmetics and concerns preparations,
especially face masks, which are free of animal collagen and which are
obtained
through cross-linking of chitosans in the presence of glucans.
Prior Art
Cosmetic fleeces are used as moisture masks for face and hands.
Normally these preparations are manufactured based on animal collagen, wherein
aqueous collagen suspensions are adjusted to a pH value in the acidic area and
thereafter the water is removed by freeze-drying. Because of the continuing
criticism of products from animals, there is a demand in the market for
products
which exclusively are manufactured with use of plant raw materials or marine
raw
materials. From the Japanese patent application JP-A2 Hei 6/048917 (Nagawa)
beauty packs with chitosan as active component as well as organic acids and.
collagen as further constituents are known. Object of the Japanese patent
application JP-A2 Hei 4/275207 (Nitta Gelatin) are moisture binding additives
to
skin cosmetic agents, which are mixtures in powder form of chitosan and
collagen. Object of the German patent application DE 19643066 Al (Henkel) is
further collagen free face masks, which are obtained through cross-linking of
chitosan with suitable diisocyanates or dialdehydes. These are however, with
regard to their dermatological compatibility until now not fully satisfactory.
The task of the invention was therefore to make available skin cosmetic
agents which on one side are free from animal collagen and on the other side
are
suited for manufacturing of moisture masks, especially for face and hands, and
which feature immunestimulation and machinability.
Object of the invention are collagen free cosmetic preparations which can
be obtained by cross-linking of swollen aqueous suspensions of chitosans and
&(1,3) glucans with diisocyanates or dialdehydes and subsequent removal of
water.
A further object of the invention concerns a method for manufacturing of
collagen free cosmetic preparations, by cross-linking of swollen aqueous
CA 02371543 2009-06-02
61200-59
2
suspensions of chitosans and (3-(1,3) glucans with diisocyanates or
dialdehydes
and subsequent removal of water.
Surprisingly it was found that addition of 13-(1,3) glucans to known
cross-linked chitosans delivers cosmetic preparations, especially face masks,
which have a significant better dermatological compatibility,
immunestimulating
effect and flexibility; at the same time the incorporation of different
auxiliary
substances becomes easier.
According to one aspect of the present invention, there is provided a
collagen-free cosmetic preparation, which is obtained by cross-linking of
swollen
aqueous suspensions of chitosans and 1i-(1,3) glucans with a diisocyanate
and/or
a dialdehyde.
According to another aspect of the present invention, there is
provided a collagen-free cosmetic preparation comprising a swollen aqueous
solution of chitosans and R-(1,3) glucans cross-linked with diisocyanates
and/or
dialdehydes.
According to still another aspect of the present invention, there is
provided a method for preparation of a collagen-free cosmetic preparation,
wherein swollen aqueous suspensions of chitosans and (3-(1,3) glucans are
cross-linked with a diisocyanate and/or a dialdehyde, whereafter the water is
removed.
Chitosans
Chitosans are biopolymers and belong to the group of hydrocolloids.
From a chemical point of view they are partial deacetylated chitins with
different
molecular weights, and contain the following - idealized - monomer module:

cH20H OH NHR
in
NH2
In contrast to most of the hydrocolloids, which are negatively charged in the
range of biological pH-values, chitosans are under these conditions cationic
biopolymers. The positively charged chitosans can interact with opposite
charged
surfaces and are therefore used in cosmetic hair and body care agents as well
as
in pharmaceutical preparations (see Ullmann's Encyclopedia of Industrial
Chemistry, 5th Ed., vol. A6, Weinheim, Verlag Chemie, 1986, p. 231-332). A
summary of these subjects are also published in for example B. Gesslein et
at.,
HAPPI 27 57 (1990), O. Skaugrud in Drug Cosm. Ind. 148, 24 (1991) and E.
Onsoyen et at. in Seifen-Ole-Fette-Wachse 117, 633 (1991). By the production
of
chitosan chitin is used as starting material, preferably the shell residues of
crust
animals, which are available in large amounts as cheap raw materials. The
chitin
is thereby, using a method which first was described by Hackmann et al.,
usually
first deprotonated by addition of bases, demineralized by addition of mineral
acids
and at last deacetylated by addition of strong bases, whereby the molecular
weights can be distributed over a broad spectrum. Corresponding methods are
for
example known from Makromol. Chem. 177, 3589 (1976) or the French patent

application FR-Al 2701266. Preferably use is made of such types which are
described in the German patent applications DE-Al 4442987 and DE-Al
19537001 (Henkel), and which have an average molecular weight of 10 000 to
1 200 000, preferably 40 000 to 500 000, respectively 800 000 to 1 000 000
Daltons, a viscosity according to Brookfield (1 % by weight in glycolic acid)
below
5 000 mPas, a degree of deacetylation in the range of 80 to 88 % and a content
of
ashes of less than 0,3 % by weight.
9-(1,3) Glucans
The term glucans means homopolysaccharides based on glucose.
Depending on sterical linking there is a difference between 13-(1,3), f3-(1,4)
and 13-
(1,6) glucans. 13-(1,3) Glucans normally show a helical structure, whereas
glucans
with a (1,4) linkage generally have a linear structure. The f3-glucans of the
invention have a (1,3) structure, i.e. they are substantially free from
undesired
(1,6) linkages. Preferably such f3-(1,3) glucans are used where the side
chains
exclusively show (1,3) linkages. Especially the agents contain glucans which
are
obtained on the basis of yeasts from the family Saccharomyces, especially
Saccharomyces corevisiae. Glucans of this type are available in technical
amounts according to known methods. The international patent application WO
95/30022 (Biotec-Mackzymal) describes a method for producing such substances,
wherein glucans with f3-(1,3) and 13-(1,6) linkages are brought in contact
with
13-(1,6) glucanases in such a way, that practically all 9-(1,6) linkages are
loosened. Preferably used for the manufacture of these glucans are glucanases
based on Trichodermia harzianum. As to the manufacture and availability of the
glucans contained in these agents, reference is made to the above cited
publication. The glucans can be contained in the preparations in amounts of
0:1 to
5, preferably 0.2 to 5, and preferably 0.5 to I % by weight, based on the
preparations.
Cross-linking Agents
Diisocyanates which can be used for cross-linking of the chitosans,
preferably follow the formula (I),
O=CN-[X]-NC=O (I)
CA 02371543 2009-06-02
' 61200-59
4
wherein X represents a linear or branced naphthenic or aromatic hydrocarbon
residue with 1 to 12 carbon atoms. Prefreably hexametylene diisocynate is used
as cross-linking agent. As dialdehydes substances following the formula (II)
can
be used,
OHC-[Y]-CHO (II)
wherein Y represents a linear or branced naphthenic or aromatic hydrocarbon
residue with I to 12 carbon atoms. Prefreably glutaric dialdehyde is used as
cross-linking agent. The cross-linking agents can be used in amounts of 0.5 to
10,
preferably 1 to 8, and especially 2 to 5 % by weight.
Polyols
Polyols which according to the invention can be used as further
constituents in the cosmetic preparations, preferably have 2 to 15 carbon
atoms
and at least two hydroxyl groups. Typical examples are:
Glycerol;
= alkylene glycols, such as for example ethylene glycol, diethylene glycol,
propylene glycol, butylene glycol, hexylene glycol as well as polyethylene
glycols with an average molecular weight from 100 to 1 000 Daltons;
= oligoglycerol mixtures of technical quality with a self-condensation degree
of 1.5 to 10, such as e.g. technical quality diglycerol mixtures with a
diglycerol content of 40 to 50 % by weight;
= methyol compounds, such as especially trimethylol ethane, trimethylol
propane, trimethylol butane, pentaerythrite and dipentaerythrite;
= low alkyl glucosides, especially such with 1 to 8 carbons in the alkyl
residue, such as for example methyl and butyl glucoside;
= sugar alcohols with 5 to 12 carbon atoms, such as for example sorbitol or
mannit;
= sugars with 5 to 12 carbon atoms, such as for example glucose or
saccharose;
amino sugars, such as for example glucamine.
Usually the polyols are used in amounts from 1 to 10, preferably 2 to 8 %
by weight, based on the dry substance oft the chitosans. Preferably use is
made
of glycerol and polyetylene glycols.
CA 02371543 2009-06-02
61200-59
Manufacture of the Preparations
Normally aqueous solutions or suspensions of the chitosans with a content
of dry matter of 0.5 to 3, preferably 1.8 to 2.2 % by weight with a pH value
of 3.5
to 6, preferably 5.0 to 5.7 are prepared by addition of inorganic or organic
acids,
5 preferably hydrochloric acid, whereby the temperature should be chosen so
that
the swelling of the biopolymers is supported. Normally the temperature lies in
the
area from 20 to 50 and preferably 35 to 45 C. The suspensions made in this
way,
in addition to the dissolved biopolymers also contain swollen not dissolved
particles. The viscosity of the suspension which appears through the mentioned
conditions can be of influence on the mecanical properties later on. To the
suspensions then the glucans and possibly polyols and further cosmetic
components are added. For the mechanical properties of the fleeces it has
shown
to be of advantage to add to the suspension natural fibres, such as for
example
lignin, polyose, pektin and especially cellulose, but also synthetic fibres
such as
Is for example polyesters, polyamides or mixtures thereof in an amount of I to
50,
preferably 5 to 10 % by weight. It is especially recommended to add the fibres
before homogenising of the solution. Subsequently the suspension is
homogenised, cross-linked with the diisocyanates and/or dialdehydes, and the
water is removed. Preferably the removal of water takes place through freeze-
drying, and thereafter splitting into blocks or fine slices can take place.

preparation of cosmetic face masks. They can further contain as additional
auxiliary and additional agents mild surfactants, oil bodies, emulsifiers,

reaction of
glucose or oligosaccharides with primary alcohols having 8 to 18 C atoms. With
regard to the glycoside residue both monoglycosides, where a cyclic sugar
group
is glycosidic bond to the fatty alcohol, and oligomeric glycosides with a

monolaurate (GML), diglycerol monocaprinate (DMC), salicylic acid n-octylamide
or salicylic acid n-decylamide.
As enzyme inhibitors are for example esterase inhibitors suited. These
are preferably trialkyl citrates such as wie trimethyl citrate, tripropyl
citrate,
triisopropyl citrate, tributyl citrate and especially triethyl citrate
(Hydageen CAT,
Henkel KGaA, Dusseldorf/FRG). The substances inhibit the enzyme activity and
thereby reduce the odour formation. Further substances which can be used as
esterase inhibitors are sterol sulphates or phosphates, such as for example
lanosterol, cholesterol, campesterol, stigmasterol and sitosterol sulphate or
phosphate, dicarbonic acids and their esters, such as for example glutaric
acid,
glutaric acid monoethyl ester, glutaric acid diethyl ester, adipic acid,
adipic acid
monoethyl ester, adipic acid diethyl ester, malonic acid and malonic acid
diethyl
ester, hydroxycarboxylic acids and their esters such as for example citric
acid,
malic acid, tartaric acid or tartaric acid diethyl ester, and zinc glycinate.
As odour absorbers such substances are suited which take up oudour
forming compounds and are able to hold them extensively. They reduce the
partial pressure of each component and thereby also reduce their spreading
rate.
It is in this connection important that the perfumes are not affected. Odour
absorber have no effect on bacterias. They contain e.g. as main component a

complex zinc salt of ricinolic acid or special, to a high degree odour neutral
scent
substances which are known by the skilled person an "Fixateure", such as e.g.
extracts of labdanum or styrax or certain abietinic acid derivatives. As odour
masking substances odouriferous substances or parfume oils are used, which in
addition to their function as odour masking substances give the deodorants
their
special scent. As perfume oils mixtures of natural and synthetic scent
substances
should be mentioned. Natural scent substances are extracts of flowers, stems
and
blades, fruits, fruit shells, roots, wood, herbs and grass, needles and twigs,
as well
as resins and balsams. Raw materials from animals are also possible, such as
for
example zibet and castoreum. Typical synthetic odour compounds are products
from types of esters, ethers, aldehydes, ketones, alcohols and hydrocarbons.
Odour compounds from types of esters are e.g. benzyl acetate, p-tert.-
butylcyclohexyl acetate, linalyl acetate, phenylethyl acetate, linalyl
benzoate,
benzyl formate, allylcyclohexyl propionate, styrallyl propionate and benzyl
salicylate. Bennylethyl ether belongs for example to the ethers, to the
aldehydes
e.g. the linear alkanals with 8 to 18 carbon atoms, citral, citronellal,
citronellyl
oxyacetaldehyde, cyclamen aldehyde, hydroxy citronellal, lilial and
bourgeonal, to
the ketones e.g. the ionones and methylcedryl ketone, to the alcohols anethol,
citronellol, eugenol, isoeugenol, geraniol, linalool, phenylethyl alcohol and
terpineol; to the hydrocarbons mainly the terpenes and balsams belong.
However,
mixtures of different odour substances are preferred, which together give a
pleasant smell. Also etheral oils with low volatility, which often are used as
aroma
components, are suited as perfume oils, e.g. sage oil, camomile oil, carnation
oil,
melissa oil, mint oil, cinnamon leaf oil, limeflower oil, juniper berry oil,
vetiver oil,
oliban oil, galbanum oil, labdanum oil and lavandin oil. Preferably used are
bergamot oil, dihydromyrcenol, lilial, lyral, citronellol, phenylethyl
alcohol,
a-hexylcinnamon aldehyde, geraniol, benzyl aceton, cyclamen aldehyde,
linalool,
boisambrene forte, ambroxane, indol, hedione, sandelice, lemon oil, mandarin
oil,
orange oil, allylamyl glycolate, cyclovertal, lavandine oil, muskateller sage
oil,
1. -damascone, geranium oil bourbon, cyclohexyl salicylate, vertofix coeur,
iso-E-
super, FixolideTM NP, Evernyl, iraidein gamma, phenylacetic acid, geranyl
acetate,
benzyl acetate, rose oxide, romillate, irotyl and floramate, alone or in
mixtures.
Antitranspirants (antiperspirants) reduce the formation of sweat through
influence on the activity of the eccrine sweat glands, and therefore
counteract

axillary wetness and body odour. Aqueous or water free formulations of
antitranspirants typically contain the following ingredients:
(a) astringent active substances,
(b) oil components,
(c) nonionic emulsifiers,
(d) co-emulsifiers,
(e) consistency substances,
(f) auxiliaries such as e.g. thickening agents or complexing agents and/or
(g) non-aqueous solvents such as e.g. ethanol, propylen glycol and/or
glycerol.
As astringent antitranspirant active substances above all salts of
aluminium, zirkonium or zinc are suited. Such suitable antihydrotic active
agents
are e.g. aluminium chloride, aluminium chlorohydrate, aluminium
dichlorohydrate,
aluminium sesquichlorohydrate and their complexes, e.g. with propylene glycol-
1,2. Aluminium hydroxy allantoinat, aluminium chloride tartrate, aluminium-
zirkonium trichlorohydrate, aluminium-zirkonium tetrachloro hydrate, Aluminium-
zirkonium pentachloro hydrate and their complexes, e.g. with amino acids such
as
glycine. In addition antitranspirants can contain small amounts of common oil
solube and water soluble auxiliaries. Such oil solube auxiliaries can e.g. be:
= Inflammation inhibiting, skin protecting, or fragrant etheral oils,
= synthetic skin protecting active agents and/or
= oil soluble perfums.
Common water soluble additives are e.g. preservatives, water soluble
scents, agents for adjustment of pH, e.g. buffer mixtures, water soluble
thickeners, e.g. water soluble natural and synthetic polymers such as e.g.
xanthan
gum, hydroxyethyl cellulose, polyvinyl pyrrolidone or high molecular
polyethylene
oxides.
As anti dandruff agents climbazol, octopirox and zinc pyrethion can be
used.
Useable film formation agents are for example chitosan, microcrystalline
chitosan, quaternary chitosan, polyvinyl pyrrolidone, vinyl
pyrrolidone/vinylacetate
copolymers, polymers of the acrylic acids, quaternary derivatives of
cellulose,
collagen, hyaluronic acid or its salts and similar compounds.
As swelling agents for aqueous phases montmorillonite, clay mineral
substances, pemulen, as well as alkylmodified Carbopol types (Goodrich) can be
CA 02371543 2001-10-24
used. Further suitable polymers or swelling agents can be found in the survey
of
R. Lochhead in Cosm. Toil. 108, 95 (1993).
UV light protection factors are e.g organic substances (light protection
filters) which at room temperature are in liquid or crystalline form, and
which are
5 capable of absorbing ultraviolet radiation and to set free the received
energy in
the form of radiation with long wavelength, e.g. in the form of heat. UVB
filters can
be soluble in oils or in water. As oil soluble substances the following are
mentioned as examples:
= 3-Benzyliden camphor, respectively 3-benzylidene norcamphor and the
10 derivatives thereof, e.g. 3-(4-methylbenzylidene) camphor as described in
EP-B1 0693471;
= 4-aminobenzoic acid derivatives, preferably 4-(dimethylamino) benzoic acid
2-ethylhexyl ester, 4-(dimethylamino) benzoic acid 2-octyl ester and
4-(dimethylamino) benzoic acid amyl ester;

2-ethylhexyl ester, 4-methoxy cinnamonic acid propyl ester, 4-methoxy
cinnamonic acid isoamyl ester, 2-cyano-3,3-phenyl cinnamonic acid
2-ethythexylester (octocrylene);

2,2'-dihydroxy-4-methoxy benzophenone;
= esters of benzalmalonic acid, preferably 4-methoxy benzmalonic acid
2-ethylhexyl ester,

hexyloxy)-1,3,5-triazine and octyl triazone, as described in EP Al 0818450,
or dioctyl butamido triazone (Uvasorb HEB);
= propane-l,3-diones, such as e.g.1-(4-tert.-butyl phenyl)-3-(4'-methoxy-
phenyl)-propane-1,3-lion;
= ketotricyclo(5,2,1,0)-decane derivatives, as described in EP 069521 131.
As,water soluble substances the following can be mentioned:
= 2-Phenylbenzimidazol-5-sulphonic acid and the alkali, alkaline earth,
ammonium, alkylammonium, alkanolammonium and glucammonium salts;
CA 02371543 2009-06-02
61200-59
16
= suiphonic acid derivatives of benzophenones, preferably 2-hydroxy-
4-methoxybenzophenon-5-suiphonic acid and their salts;
= sulphonic acid derivatives of 3-benzyliden camphor, such as e.g.
4-(2-oxo-3-bornylidenemethyl)-benzene suiphonic acid and
2-methyl-5-(2-oxo-bornylidene) sulphonic acid and their salts.
As typical UV-A filters especially derivatives of benzoyl methane come in
question, such as e.g. 1-(4'-tert.-butylphenyl)-3-(4'-methoxyphenyl)propane-
1,3-
dion, 4-tert.butyl-4'-methoxydibenzoyl-methane (ParsolTM 1789), or 1-phenyl-3-
(4'-
isopropylphenyl-propane-1,3-dion, as also enamine compounds, as described in
DE 19712033 (BASF). The UV-A and UV-B filters can of course also be used in
mixtures. In addition to the mentioned soluble substances also insoluble light
protection pigments can be used for this purpose, i.e. fine disperse metal
oxides
or salts. Examples of suitable metal oxides are especially zinc oxide and
titanium
dioxide and in addition other oxides of iron, zirconium, silicon, manganese,
aluminium and cerium, as well as their mixtures. As salts silicates (talc),
barium
sulphate or zinc stearate can be used. The oxides and salts are used in the
form
of the pigments for skin caring and skin protecting emulsions and decorative
cosmetics. The particles should have an average diameter of less than 100 nm,
preferably between 5 and 50 nm and especially between 15 and 30 nm. They can
have a spherical shape, but particles can also be used which have an
ellipsoidal
form or else have a shape which differs from the spherical shape. The pigment
can also be present in a surface treated form, i.e. made hydrophilic or
hydrophobic. Typical examples are coated titanium dioxides, such as e.g.
Titandioxid T 805 (Degussa) or Eusolex T2000 (Merck). As hydrophobic coating
agents preferably silicones and especially trialkoxy octyl silane or
Simethicone
can be used. In sun protecting agents preferably so-called micro or nano
pigments are used. In sun protecting agents preferably so-called micro or nano
pigments are used. Preferably micronized zinc oxide is used.
Further suitable UV light protection factors can be found in the survey by
P.Finkel in SOFW-Joumal 122, 543 (1996). In addition to the primary light
protection substances also secondary light protection substances of the
antioxidant type find use, which interrupt the photochemichal reaction chain,
which is initiated when UV radiation penetrates the skin. Typical examples of
such
are amino acids (e.g. glycine, histidine, tyrosine, tryptophan) and their
derivatives,

As colouring agents such substances which are suited and approved for
cosmetic purposes can be used, such as for example those mentioned in the
publication "Kosmetische Farbemittel" (cosmetic dyes) of the
"Farbstoffkommission der Deutschen Forschungsgemeinschaft", published by
Verlag Chemie, Weinheim, 1984, p. 81-106. These dyes are generally used in
concentrations from 0.001 to 0.1 % by weight, based on the whole mixture.
The full amount of auxiliary and additional agents can be 1 to 50, preferably
5 to 40 % by weight, based on the agents.
Examples
Example I
Into a 2 liter apparatus with a stirrer 1960 ml of water was added and
warned up to 40 C, and 40 g chitosan (Hydagen CMPF, Henkel KGaA,
Dusseldorf / FRG) was added. The pH value of the mixture was adjusted to 5.5
by
addition of hydrochloric acid. Thereafter 2 g (5 % by weight based on dry
substance) glycine and 0.5 g betaglucan (Higcareen GS) was added and the
mixture was homogenised with an Ultraturrax. Thereafter 0.8 g (2 % by weight
based on dry substance) hexamethylene diisocyanate was carefully stirred in.
After the cross-linking the suspension was frozen into a block and
subsequently
lyophilized. By splitting of the blocks after water removal to the desired
thickness,
water soluble fleeces were obtained, which by moistening behaved like sponges.
