Cosmetic suspensions

Cosmetic suspensions are available in two types. The first comprises pigmented products that are suspended in essentially aqueous vehicles (liquid makeup, eyeliners, mascara, and blusher). These products have a high solids content, high density, impalpable powders, and pigments permanently suspended in a primary oil-in-water emulsion-type base or a complex system of hydrophilic cellulose derivatives, clays, and/or polymeric film formers, in which the gelling and suspending properties of the vehicle often are reinforced by a small amount of a Bingham-type plastic such as carbomer. [Pg.3607]

Substances other than enzymes can be immobilized. Examples include the fixing of heparin on polytetrafluoroethylene with the aid of PEI (424), the controUed release of pesticides which are bound to PEI (425), and the inhibition of herbicide suspensions by addition of PEI (426). The uptake of anionic dyes by fabric or paper is improved if the paper is first catonized with PEI (427). In addition, PEI is able to absorb odorizing substances such as fatty acids and aldehydes. Because of its high molecular weight, PEI can be used in cosmetics and body care products, as weU as in industrial elimination of odors, such as the improvement of ambient air quaHty in sewage treatment plants (428). [Pg.13]

Medicine and Nutrition. A stabilized buffered suspension of selenium sulfide has been marketed for many years as Selsun Blue (Abbott Laboratories) for control of seborrheic dermatitis of the scalp. A similar sulfur or selenium sulfide shampoo containing a metallic cation complex has been prepared (122). Topical appHcation of selenium sulfide controls dermatitis, pmritis, and mange iu dogs (see Cosmetics Veterinarydrugs). [Pg.337]

Poly(vinyl alcohol) will function as a non-ionic surface active agent and is used in suspension polymerisation as a protective colloid. In many applications it serves as a binder and thickener is addition to an emulsifying agent. The polymer is also employed in adhesives, binders, paper sizing, paper coatings, textile sizing, ceramics, cosmetics and as a steel quenchant. [Pg.391]

Hydroxy propyl cellulose, like methyl cellulose, is soluble in cold water but not in hot, precipitating above 38°C. It was introduced by Hercules in 1968 (Klucel) for such uses as adhesive thickeners, binders, cosmetics and as protective colloids for suspension polymerisation. The Dow company market the related hydroxypropylmethyl cellulose (Methocel) and also produce in small quantities a hydroxyethylmethyl cellulose. [Pg.632]

The practical aspects of stabilizing agents for suspensions are of great importance to the cosmetic and pharmaceutical industries. The following... [Pg.86]

Kaolinite is the main constituent in china clay used to make porcelain. The layers are largely held together by van der Waals forces. Bentonite is used in cosmetics, as a filler for soaps, and as a plasticizer, and it is used in drilling-muds as a suspension stabilizer. Bentonite and kaolinite clays are used, after treatment with sulfuric acid to create acidic surface sites, as petroleum cracking catalysts. Asbestos also has a layered structure (Section 12.13). [Pg.390]

How easily an ENM is released from a product depends mainly on how the ENM is incorporated in that product. ENMs in sprays are released immediately after the application. ENMs in suspensions (such as sunscreens and cosmetics) are also very likely to be released within hours, whereas ENMs in paints and textiles are considered to remain within the matrix for years. Generally, ENMs in fluids are quickly and in most cases completely released during the use phase, whereas ENMs embedded in solid matrices are only partially released over the product s lifetime [11]. [Pg.230]

The polyurethane (PU) can be considered an environment-friendly material because the urethane bond resembles the amide bond, which implies possible biodegradability. It can be used in various elastomer formulations, paints, adhesives for polymers and glass, and artificial leather as well as in biomedical and cosmetic fields. Polyurethane spheres were prepared from 20/40% of PU prepolymer solution in xylene [91]. PU droplets were formed in water with the SPG membrane of different pore size (1.5-9.5 pm) and then polymerized to form the final microspheres. Finally, spherical and solid PU particles of 5 pm were obtained after the removal of the solvent. In another study, Ma et al. reported the formation of uniform polyurethane-vinylpolymer (PUU-VP) hybrid microspheres of about 20 pm, prepared using SPG membranes and a subsequent radical suspension polymerization process [92], The prepolymers were solubilized in xylene and pressed through the SPG membrane into the continuous phase containing a stabilizer to form uniform droplets. The droplets were left for chain extension at room temperature for some hours with di- and triamines by suspension polymerization at 70 °C for 24h. Solid and spherical PU-VP hybrid particles with a smooth surface and a higher destructive strength were obtained. [Pg.492]
