Description

Kit for coating keratin materials comprising a polysaccharide and an ionic or dative complexing agent

The subject of the present invention is a cosmetic product, in particular a non-therapeutic make-up or care product for keratin materials comprising at least two compounds X and Y, which are capable of reacting together, at least one of the compounds being a polysaccharide.

The products according to the invention may be make-up or skincare products for keratin materials, in particular skin, lips, eyelashes, eyebrows or nails. In particular, the product according to the invention can be a foundation, a blush or an eyeshadow, a concealer, a blush, a lipstick, a lip balm, a lip gloss, a lip pencil or with eyes, a mascara, an eyeliner or a product for making up the body, for coloring the skin, or for a treatment such as a care cream, a tinted cream, or a sun product.

Makeup compositions such as lipsticks and foundations are commonly used to bring an aesthetic color to the lips or to the skin, especially to the face, or to camouflage skin discolorations. These makeup products generally contain water or a hydrophilic phase, fatty substances such as waxes and / or oils, and a particulate phase generally composed of fillers and / or pigments.

These compositions, when they are applied to the skin, have the disadvantage of transferring, that is to say of being deposited at least in part, leaving traces, on certain supports with which they can be put in contact with each other. and especially a glass, a cup, a cigarette, a garment or the skin. It follows a poor persistence of the applied film, requiring regular renewal of the application of the foundation composition or lipstick. These transfer problems are all the more important that the compositions comprise a high content of pigments, which is the case when the compositions are intended to mask dyschromias, problems of damaged skin, or imperfections of relief such as wrinkles or scars. Moreover, the appearance of these unacceptable traces especially on the blouse collar can exclude some women from the use of this type of makeup. We therefore seek cosmetic compositions called "non-transfer" which have the advantage of forming a deposit that does not transfer, at least in part, on the supports with which they are put in contact (glass, clothing, cigarette, tissue) and having a good behavior over time, in particular color in the case of a makeup product. Better still, we seek compositions whose holding properties and non-transfer can be controlled over time, that is to say, compositions having optimal hold during the day, and can be removed without effort effortlessly to any time.

To limit the transfer of cosmetic compositions, it is known to use volatile oils. These volatile oils, when present in large quantities, make the makeup product, such as the foundation or the lipstick, uncomfortable for the user: after evaporation of the oil, the makeup deposit gives a feeling of drying and tugging.

In the field of compositions for coating eyelashes or mascaras, it is known in particular anhydrous mascaras or low water content and / or water-soluble solvents, so-called "waterproof mascaras", formulated as a dispersion of waxes in solvents non-aqueous and have good resistance to water and / or sebum.

However, the makeup film obtained after the application of these compositions is not sufficiently resistant to water, for bathing or showers for example, with tears or sweat. The mascara then tends to crumble in time: grains are deposited and unsightly marks appear around the eyes.

The object of the present invention is to provide a novel way of formulating cosmetic compositions, in particular make-up or care compositions, making it possible to obtain a film deposited on keratin materials having good non-transfer properties, good holding properties in the time, especially good resistance to water and / or sebum and friction, and conferring a comfortable deposit on the skin, lips, eyelashes or nails.

The inventors have discovered that it is possible to obtain such properties by using a system comprising a polysaccharide (compound X) and a complexing agent (compound Y) which react in situ, at atmospheric pressure and at a temperature chosen according to of the system considered, so as to form a film adhering to the keratin materials without being tacky, said film may even be peelable under certain conditions. These compounds also have the advantage of being of natural origin. Polymeric films formed in situ on keratin materials, have very good adhesion properties, non-transfer properties, resistance to water or sebum, mechanical resistance to friction, and comfort.

In addition, these compositions may have "second skin" characteristics, in that the deposition on the keratin materials is obtained by an in situ reaction, directly on the skin. The resulting film adapts perfectly to the morphology of the skin. Finally, it is possible for the user to modulate the thickness of the deposit formed when it wants to camouflage irregularities of relief of the skin such as wrinkles or fine lines.

Before being applied to keratin materials, compounds X and Y may be present in the same composition or in two different compositions called first and second compositions.

1. Polysaccharides made by microorganisms

xanthan

Xanthan is a heteropolysaccharide produced on an industrial scale by the aerobic fermentation of the bacterium Xanthomonas campestris. Its structure consists of a main chain of β-D-glucose linked in β (1, 4), similar to cellulose. One in two glucose molecules carries a trisaccharide side chain consisting of α-D-mannose, β-D-glucuronic acid and terminal β-D-mannose. The internal mannose residue is generally acetylated on the carbon 6. About 30% of the terminal mannose residues carry a pyruvate group bound in chelated form between the carbons 4 and 6. The glucuronic acids and the charged pyruvic acids are ionizable, and therefore responsible for the anionic nature of xanthan (negative charge up to pH 1). The contents of the pyruvate and acetate residues vary according to the strain of bacteria, the fermentation process, the conditions after fermentation and the purification steps. These groups can be neutralized in commercial products with Na ⁺ , K ⁺ or Ca ²⁺ ions (SATIA Company, 1986). The neutralized form can be converted to an acid form by ion exchange or by dialysis of an acidic solution. Chemical structure of the base unit of xanthan: β-Glc β-Glc

β-Man

The xanthan gums have a molecular weight of between 1,000,000 and 50,000,000 and a viscosity of between 0.6 and 1.65 Pa.s for an aqueous composition containing 1% of xanthan gum (measured at 25 ^° C. under the viscometer). Brookfield, LVT type at 60 rpm).

Xanthan gum are represented for example by the products sold under the names Rhodicare by the company Rhodia Chimie, under the name SATIAXANE ™ by the company Cargill Texturizing Solutions (for the food, cosmetic and pharmaceutical industry), under the name NOVAXAN ™ the company ADM, and under the names Keltrol ^® Kelzan ^® and the CP-Kelco.

pullulan

Pullulan is a polysaccharide consisting of maltotriose units, known as α (1,4) -α (1,6) -glucan. Three units of glucose in maltotriose are connected via a glycosidic linkage at α (1, 4), while the consecutive maltotriose units are connected to each other by an α (1, 6) glycosidic linkage. Pullulan is produced by fermentation from starch by the mushroom Aureobasidium pullulans.

The pullulan is for example produced under the reference Pullulan PF 20 by the Hayashibara group in Japan.

Dextran and dextran sulfate

Dextran is a neutral polysaccharide without charged group, biologically inert, prepared by fermentation of beet sugar containing only hydroxyl groups. It is synthesized from sucrose by fermentation in the presence of certain lactic acid bacteria, the most common being Leuconostoc mesenteroides and Streptococcus mutans. This connected polysaccharide consists of a succession of glucose molecules forming a chain of variable lengths. The main chain consists of glucose molecules linked together by glycosidic bonds in α (1, 6), and the branches are connected to the main chain by glycosidic bonds in α (1, 3) (and in some cases, in α (1, 2) and α (1, 4)).

Chemical structure of dextran:

It is possible to obtain from the native dextran by hydrolysis and purification, dextran fractions of different molecular weights. Dextran may in particular be in the form of dextran sulfate. Dextran is represented, for example, by the products sold under the name Dextran or Dextran T by the company Pharmacosmos, under the name Dextran 40 powder or Dextran 70 powder by the company Meito Sangyo Co. Dextran sulphate is marketed by the company PK Chemical A / S under the name Dextran sulphate.

succinoglycane

Succinoglycan is an extracellular polymer produced by bacterial fermentation, of high molecular weight and consisting of repeated units of octasaccharides (repetition of 8 sugars). These units are synthesized in the membranes of the microorganism related to isoprenoid lipids. The main chain contains 3 glucoses and 1 galactose, and the side chain contains 4 glucoses. The sugars are linked together by glycoside bonds β (1, 4) and β (1, 3). The pyruvate substituent is attached to the last glucose of the side chain, however, the succinate can be linked to one of the other 2 glucoses of the same side chain. In addition, the basic unit of said succinoglycans may contain residues of other organic acids, such as pyruvile or acetyl residues, as well as other sugars such as glucuronic acid and / or mannose. The molar ratios between glucose and such organic acid residues are generally between (5 to 8) / (0.01 to 2). The molar ratios between said other sugars and glucose are generally between (0 to 1) / (5 to 8).

The succinoglycans can be obtained by microbial fermentation, for example by fermentation of a medium comprising at least one carbon source, by means of a microorganism which preferably belongs to the genus Arthrobacter, such as Arthrobacter.

Stabilis, with the genus Agrobacterium, such as Agrobacterium tumefaciens, Agrobacterium radiobacter, or Agrobacterium rhizogenes, with the genus Rhizobium, with the genus Alcaligenes, such as Alcaligenes faecalis.

Fermentation media containing the carbon source as well as fermentation processes are extensively described in the literature.

Succinoglycan is an anionic polysaccharide which has the particularity of having a helix-pelot transition, induced by a temperature change. This conformational transition is very cooperative, leading to a significant change in the rigidity of the polymer.

Succinoglycans are, for example, sold under the name Rheozan by Rhodia. scleroglucan

Scleroglucan is a branched, nonionic homopolysaccharide composed of β-D glucan units. The molecules consist of a main linear chain formed of D-glucose linked by β (1, 3) linkages and of which one in three is linked to a lateral D-glucose unit via a β bond (1, 6).

Chemical structure of scleroglucans:

These polysaccharides are obtained by fermentation of a medium based on sugar and mineral salts, under the action of a Sclerotium-type microorganism, such as Sclerotium glucanium and Sclerotium rolfsii. A more complete description of scleroglucans and their preparation can be found in US 3,301,848.

Scleroglucan is for example sold under the name AMIGEL by ALBAN MULLER, or under the name ACTIGUM ™ CS by Cargill.

2. Polysaccharides isolated from algae

Galactannes

The compound X of the composition according to the invention may be a galactan, especially chosen from agar or carrageenans. Carrageenans are anionic polysaccharides constituting the cell walls of various red algae (Rhodophyceae) belonging to the famiiles of Gigartinacae, Hypneaceae, Furceilariaceae and Polyideaceae. Ns are generally obtained by hot aqueous extraction from natural strains of said algae. These linear polymers, formed by disaccharide units, are composed of two D-galactopyranose units alternately linked by α (1, 3) and β (1, 4) linkages. They are highly sulphated polysaccharides (20-50%) and the α-D-galactopyranosyl residues can be in 3,6-anhydro form. Depending on the number and the position of ester-sulfate groups on the repeating disaccharide of the molecule, there are several types of carrageenans namely: kappa-carrageenans which have an ester-sulfate group, iota-carrageenans which have two ester groups sulphate and lambda-carrageenans which have three ester-sulphate groups.

Carrageenans have in particular the following chemical structures

Kappa

Iota

lambda

Carrageenans consist essentially of potassium, sodium, magnesium, triethanolamine and / or calcium salts and sulfate esters of polysaccharides.

The physicochemical properties and uses of these polysaccharides as gelling agents rely on their ability to establish conformational transitions. helix as a function of the thermal and ionic environment [Kloareg et al. Oceanography and Marine Biology - An Annual Review 26: 259-315 (1988)].

Carrageenans are especially sold by Seppic under the name Solagum ^®, the Gelymar under the name of Carragel ^®, Carralact ^® and Carrasol ^® by Cargill, under the names SATIAGEL ™ and satiagum ™, and CP-Kelco under the name GENULACTA ^® , GENUGEL ^® and GENUVISCO ^® .

Galactans Agar type are galactose polysaccharides contained in the cell wall of some of these species of red algae (rhodophycea). They are formed of a polymer group whose base skeleton is a chain β (1,3) D-galactopyranose and α (1,4) L 3-6 anhydrogalactose, these units repeating regularly and alternately. Differences within the agar family are due to the presence or absence of methylated or carboxyethylated solvated groups. These hybrid structures are generally present as a variable percentage, depending on the species of algae and the season of harvest. The agar is a mixture of polysaccharides (agarose and agaropectin) of high molecular weight, between 40,000 and 300,000 g. mol ^"1. It is obtained by manufacturing algae extraction juice, usually by autoclaving, and treating these juices which include about 2% of agar to extract it.

The agar is for example produced by the group B & V Agar Producers, under the name GoId Agar, Agarite and Grand Agar by the company Hispanagar, and under the names Agar-Agar, QSA (Quick Soluble Agar), and Puragar by the company Setexam .

Furcellarane Furcellaran is obtained commercially from red algae Furœllaria fasztigiata, found mainly in the northern seas of Europe. Its structure is very close to that of carrageenans. Furcellarane is for example produced by the company East-Agar.

3. Polysaccharides of higher plants Homogeneous polysaccharides (a single species of dare) and heterogeneous compounds of several types of dares are distinguished.

Homogeneous polysaccharides

1. Glucosans

The compound X present in the composition according to the invention may be a glucosane, in particular chosen from native or modified starches, dextrins and derivatives, celluloses and derivatives or fructans.

Native starches

The starches which can be used in the present invention are more particularly macromolecules in the form of polymers consisting of elementary units which are hydroglucose (dextrose) units, linked by α (1, 4) bonds, of chemical formula

(C ₆ H ₁₀ Os) _n . The number of these units and their assembly make it possible to distinguish amylose, a molecule formed from about 600 to 1000 molecules of linearly-linked glucose, and amylopectin, a branched polymer around every 25 glucose residues (α (1, 6) bond). The total chain can make between 10,000 and 100,000 glucose residues.

Starch is described in particular in "Kirk-Othmer ENCYCLOPEDIA OF CHEMICAL TECHNOLOGY, ^3rd Edition, Volume 21, p.492-507, Wiley Interscience, 1983".

Chemical structure of starch: Dextrose

amyloidosis

amylopectin

The relative proportions of amylose and amylopectin, as well as their degree of polymerization, vary according to the botanical origin of the starches. On average, a sample of native starch consists of about 25% amylose and 75% amylopectin.

Sometimes, there is presence of phytoglycogen (between 0 and 20% of the starch), an analogue of amylopectin but branched every 10 to 15 glucose residues.

The starch can be in the form of semi-crystalline granules: amylopectin is organized in sheets, amylose forms a less well-organized amorphous zone between the different layers.

Amyloidosis is organized into a right helix with six glucoses per turn. It dissociates into assimilable glucose under the action of enzymes, amylases, more easily if it is in the form of amylopectin. Indeed, helical formation does not promote the accessibility of starch to enzymes.

The starches are generally in the form of a white powder insoluble in cold water, the size of the elementary particles ranges from 3 to 100 microns. By treating it with hot water, we obtain the poisoning. It is used in the industry for its thickener and gelling properties.

The starch molecules used in the present invention may have as botanical origin cereals or tubers. So starches are for example selected from starches of maize, rice, cassava, tapioca, barley, potato, wheat, sorghum, peas.

The starches used in the composition of the invention may be modified by one or more of the following reactions: pregelatinization, degradation (acid hydrolysis, oxidation, dextrinization), substitution (esterification, etherification), crosslinking (esterification), bleaching.

More particularly, these reactions can be carried out as follows:

- pregelatinization by bursting the starch granules (for example drying and cooking in a drying drum), - acid hydrolysis giving rise to very rapid retrogression on cooling,

- oxidation with strong oxidants (alkaline medium, in the presence of sodium hypochlorite NaOCI for example) leading to the depolymerization of the starch molecule and the introduction of carboxyl groups in the starch molecule (mainly oxidation of the group C ₆ hydroxyl), - dextrinisation in acid medium at high temperature (hydrolysis then repolymerization),

crosslinking with functional agents capable of reacting with the hydroxyl groups of the starch molecules which will thus be bonded together (for example with glyceryl and / or phosphate groups)

alkaline esterification for the grafting of functional groups, in particular C ₆ acyl (acetyl), hydroxyalkyl C ₆ (hydroxyethyl, hydroxypropyl), carboxymethyl, octenylsuccinic.

In particular, it is possible to obtain, by crosslinking with phosphorus compounds, mono-starch phosphates (of the Am-O-PO- (OX) _{2 type} ), diamidon phosphates (of the Am-O-PO- (OX) -O-Am type). ) or even triamidon (of the type Am-O-PO- (O-Am) ₂ ) or their mixtures.

The phosphorus compounds may be, for example, sodium tripolyphosphate, sodium orthophosphate, phosphorus oxychloride or sodium trimetaphosphate.

According to the invention, it is also possible to use amphoteric starches, these amphoteric starches contain one or more anionic groups and one or more cationic groups. The anionic and cationic groups may be bonded to the same reactive site of the starch molecule or to different reactive sites; preferably they are linked to the same reactive site. The anionic groups may be of carboxylic, phosphate or sulfate type and preferably carboxylic. The cationic groups may be of primary, secondary, tertiary or quaternary amine type.

(Cyclo) dextrin and derivatives

Cyclodextrins are a family of cyclic oligosaccharides composed of α (1, 4) -linked glucopyranose subunits. These natural products resulting from the degradation of starch by the bacterium Bacillus macerans, were discovered in 1891 by Villiers. Three families are mainly used or studied the α-, β- and γ-cyclodextrins according to which are formed of 6, 7 or 8 subunits (families of several tens of subunits were synthesized for research purposes).

The empirical formula of β-cyclodextrin is C ₄₂ H ₇₀ O ₃₅ , so its molar mass is 1,134.98 g. mol ^"1 , its CAS number is 7585-39-9 The cyclodextrins are in particular oligosaccharides of formula:

in which x may be a number equal to 4 (which corresponds to α-cyclodextrin), to 5 (β-cyclodextrin) or to 6 (γ-cyclodextrin).

Many derivatives can be obtained from natural cyclodextrins: the hydroxyl groups of the glucopyranose units can be amino, esterified or etherified. The synthesis of these derivatives is often intended to improve solubility. Among the most studied cyclodextrins are β-cyclodextrin (BCD, natural), hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin (HPCD) and methyl-β-cyclodextrin (MCD).

It may especially be used a beta-cyclodextrin sold by Wacker under the name CAVAMAX W7 and a gamma-cyclodextrin sold by the company Wacker under the name CAVAMAX W8.

The cyclodextrin derivatives are, for example, methyl cyclodextrins, such as methyl-beta-cyclodextrin sold by the company Wacker under the name CAVASOL W7. Cellulose and derivatives

The compound X according to the invention may also be a cellulose or a derivative thereof in particular ethers or cellulose esters (eg methylcellulose, carboxymethylcellulose, hydroxymethylcellulose, hydroxyethylcellulose, hydroxypropylcellulose, hydroxymethylpropylcellulose, cellulose acetate, cellulose nitrate, nitrocellulose) .

The invention may also contain a cellulosic associative polymer. According to the invention, the term "cellulosic compound" is intended to mean any polysaccharide compound having in its structure linear chains of anhydroglucopyranose (AGU) residues linked by glycosidic β (1, 4) linkages. The repetition pattern is the cellobiose dimer. The AGUs are in chair conformation and have 3 hydroxyl functions: 2 secondary alcohols (in position 2 and 3) and a primary alcohol (in position 6). The polymers thus formed combine with each other by intermolecular links of the hydrogen bonding type, thus conferring a fibrillar structure on the cellulose (approximately 1500 molecules per fiber).

The degree of polymerization differs enormously depending on the origin of the cellulose; its value can vary from a few hundred to a few tens of thousands.

Cellulose has the following chemical structure:

xtireraw; our redefinition of the reduction of reducers

The hydroxyl groups of the cellulose may partially or totally react with different chemical reagents to give cellulose derivatives having their own properties. The cellulose derivatives may be anionic, cationic, amphoteric or nonionic. Among these derivatives, there are cellulose ethers, cellulose esters and cellulose ether esters. Among the nonionic cellulose ethers, mention may be made of alkylcelluloses such as methylcelluloses and ethylcelluloses; hydroxyalkyl celluloses such as hydroxymethylcelluloses, hydroxyethylcelluloses and hydroxypropylcelluloses; mixed hydroxyalkyl-alkylcellulose celluloses such as hydroxypropylmethylcelluloses, hydroxyethylmethylcelluloses, hydroxyethylethylcelluloses and hydroxybutylmethylcelluloses. Among the anionic cellulose ethers, mention may be made of carboxyalkylcelluloses and their salts. By way of example, mention may be made of carboxymethylcelluloses, carboxymethylmethylcelluloses and carboxymethylhydroxyethylcelluloses and their sodium salts. Among the cationic cellulose ethers, mention may be made of quaternized hydroxyethylcelluloses which may or may not be crosslinked. The quaternizer may especially be glycidyltrimethylammonium chloride or a fatty amine such as laurylamine or stearylamine. Another cationic cellulose ether that may be mentioned is hydroxyethylcellulose hydroxypropyltrimethylammonium. Among the cellulose esters, there are the inorganic esters of cellulose (cellulose nitrates, sulphates, or phosphates, etc.), the organic cellulose esters (cellulose monoacetates, triacetates, amidopropionates, acetatebutyrates, acetatepropionates or acetatetrimellitates). ) and mixed organic / inorganic cellulose esters such as cellulose acetate-butyrate sulphates and cellulose acetate propionates. Among the cellulose ether esters, mention may be made of hydroxypropyl methylcellulose phthalates and ethylcellulose sulphates.

fructans The compound X present in the composition according to the invention may especially be a fructosan selected from among inulin and its derivatives (especially dicarboxy and carboxymethyl inulins).

Fructans or fructosans are oligosaccharides or polysaccharides comprising a sequence of anhydrofructose units optionally associated with a plurality of different saccharide residues of fructose. The fructans can be linear or branched. The fructans can be products obtained directly from a plant or microbial source or products whose chain length has been modified (increased or reduced) by fractionation, synthesis or hydrolysis in particular enzymatic. The fructans generally have a degree of polymerization of from 2 to about 1000 and preferably from 2 to about 60.

There are 3 groups of fructans. The first group corresponds to products whose fructose units are mostly linked by β (2,1) linkages. These are essentially linear fructans such as inulin.

The second group also corresponds to linear fructoses but the fructose units are essentially linked by β (2,6) bonds. These products are levanes. The third group corresponds to mixed fructans, ie having β (2,6) and β (2,1) chains. These are essentially branched fructans than graminans.

The preferred fructans in the compositions according to the invention are inulins. Inulin can be obtained for example from chicory, dahlia or Jerusalem artichokes. Preferably, the inulin used in the composition according to the invention is obtained for example from chicory.

The polysaccharides, in particular inulins, used in the compositions according to the invention can be hydrophobically modified. In particular, they are obtained by grafting hydrophobic chains onto the hydrophilic backbone of the fructan.

The hydrophobic chains capable of being grafted onto the main chain of the fructan can in particular be linear or branched hydrocarbon chains, saturated or unsaturated, having from 1 to 50 carbon atoms, such as the alkyl, arylalkyl, alkylaryl or alkylene groups; divalent cycloaliphatic groups or organopolysiloxane chains. These hydrocarbon or organopolysiloxane chains can in particular comprise one or more ester, amide, urethane, carbamate, thiocarbamate, urea, thiourea and / or sulphonamide functions, such as in particular methylenedicyclohexyl and isophorone; or divalent aromatic groups such as phenylene.

In particular, the polysaccharide, especially inulin, has a degree of polymerization of from 2 to about 1000 and preferably from 2 to about 60, and a degree of substitution of less than 2 on the basis of a fructose unit.

According to a preferred embodiment, the hydrophobic chains have at least one alkyl carbamate group of formula R-NH-CO- in which R is an alkyl group having from 1 to 22 carbon atoms.

According to a more preferred embodiment, the hydrophobic chains are lauryl carbamate groups.

The inulin used for this invention is represented for example by the products sold under the name Beneo ™ inulin by the company Orafti, and under the name

Frutafit® by Sensus. By way of nonlimiting illustration, hydrophobic modified inulins that can be used in the compositions according to the invention include stearoyl inulin such as those sold under the names Lifidrem Inst by Engelhard and Rheopearl INS by Ciba; palmitoyl inulin; undecylenoyl inulin such as those sold under the names Lifidrem INUK and

Lifidrem INUM by the company Engelhard; and inulin lauryl carbamate such as that sold under the name INUTEC SP1 by the company Orafti.

Heterogeneous polysaccharides:

gums

The polysaccharides that may be used according to the invention may be gums, for example cassia, karaya, konjac, tragacanth, acacia or arabic gum.

Gum arabic

Gum arabic, of which the Senegalese gum (Acacia seyal, family Leguminosae) is the main variety, consists of a exudate of descending sap solidified, amalgamated naturally or by incision, on the trunk and at the foot of trees, of the family of acacias.

Gum arabic is a highly branched acidic polysaccharide which is in the form of mixtures of potassium, magnesium and calcium salts. The monomeric elements of the free acid (arabic acid) are D-galactose, L-arabinose, L- rhamnose and D-glucuronic acid. It is assumed that gum arabic consists of at least two polysaccharide fractions of different structures. The higher molecular weight fraction contains a modest amount of amino acids but is critical for its properties. The average molecular weight indicated varies between 200 and 300 kDa.

Gum arabic is commercially available in the form of powder or unmilled crystals more or less round, yellow to white to yellowish brown in color. The outer surface of the crystals is matte and cracked and their breaks are glassy; they are also often crossed by fine cracks. The gum is bland and odorless. It is soluble in water, insoluble in alcohol.

Gum arabic is characterized by three main fractions, an arabinogalactan (AG) fraction with a very small protein fraction, representing 88% of the gum and having a molecular weight of 250 000 Da, an arabinogalactan-protein complex (AGP) having a high molecular weight (1, 5.10 ⁶ ) - protein complex (AGP) representing about 10% by weight of the gum, and a glycoprotein (G1) with a molecular weight of 200,000 Da, component 1, 2% of the gum. The carbohydrate blocks (AG) are linked together by a main polypeptide chain. The carbohydrate blocks consist of a β-linked (1, 3) -linked galactopyranose skeleton, with numerous branches bound to galactopyranose residues in β (1, 6) and containing arabinofuranose, arabinopyranose (Ara), rhamnopyranose (Rha) sugars. ), glucuronic acids (GIcA) and 4-O-methylglucoronic acid. Gum arabic can be precipitated in the presence of trivalent cations and by salts such as silicates, borates and mercuric nitrate.

The gum arabic used for this invention is represented, for example, by the products sold under the name Eficacia ™ by the company Colloides Naturels International, by the product sold under the name Gum Arabia Quick Gum Type 8074 by the company Max Haenelt, by the product sold under the name Arabian Gum Powder 396D sold by Alland & Robert, by the product sold under the name Ticamulsion B-2001 by the company TIC Gums.

Gum tragacanth Gum tragacanth, also called tragacanth or dragon gum, is an exudate obtained from the dried mucilaginous sap of twenty species of plants of the genus Astracantha (formerly Astragalus) originating from south-eastern Europe and south-west Asia.

This gum is a complex mixture of several polysaccharides. The two main fractions are tragacanthin (60-70%) and bassorine, also called "tragacanthic acid" (30-40%). In contact with water, tragacanthin dissolves to form a colloidal hydrosol, while the insoluble bassorine swells to form a gel. By using a small amount of water, an adhesive paste is obtained.

The constituent sugar residues of this arabinogalactan are 75% of L-arabinose, 12% of D-galactose, 3% of D-galacturonic acid methyl ester and L-rhamnose. The tragacanthic acid is water-soluble and consists of a (1,4) -linked α-D-galactopyranosyluronic acid backbone with short branches such as β-linked residues D-xylopyranose (1). 3), β-linked D-xylopyropyranosyl-1,2-α-1-fucopyranose dimers (1,3), and β-linked D-xylopyranose-1,2-d-galactopyranose dimers (1,3). The constituent sugars of gum tragacanth are therefore in relative proportions 43% of D-galacturonic acid, 40% of D-xylose, 10% of L-fucose and 4% of D-galactose. The average molecular mass of tragacanthic acid is of the order of 840 000 Da.

Karaya gum Karaya gum is a partially acetylated, high molecular weight polysaccharide exuded by Sterculia trees (Urens and Setigera) and one of the least water soluble natural gums. It swells to give a viscous colloidal dispersion. The karaya gum is a strongly acetylated acidic polysaccharide, with a backbone consisting of an alternation of πt-D-galacturonopyranosyluronic acid units bound in (1, 4) and α-L-rhamnopyranosyl residues bound in (1, 2). . Groups of β-D-galactopyranosyl and D-glucuronopyranosyluronic acid are connected to the oxygens (02 and 03) of the galacturonic acid residues, while half of the rhamnose residues are bound (in 04) to β-residues. D-galactopyranosyl at (1, 4). The molecule also has 13% by weight of acetyl groups. Karaya gum is poorly soluble in water, however, it swells easily in cold water to occupy several times its original volume, especially at small particle size (<200 mesh), giving a dispersion that appears homogeneous

The karaya gum used for this invention is represented for example by the products sold under the names Gum Karaya Powder by the company Alland & Robert. Galactomannans (guar, carob, fenugreek, tara gum) and derivatives (phosphated guar, hydroxypropyl guar, ..):

Galactomannans are nonionic polysaccharides extracted from the albumen of leguminous seeds of which they constitute the reserve carbohydrate.

Galactomannans are macromolecules consisting of a main chain of β (1, 4) -linked D-mannopyranose units, bearing lateral branches consisting of a single unit D-galactopyranose linked at α (1, 6) to the chain main. The different galactomannans are distinguished on the one hand by the proportion of α-D-galactopyranose units present in the polymer, and on the other hand by significant differences in terms of distribution of galactose units along the mannose chain.

The mannose / galactose ratio (M / G) is of the order of 2 for guar gum, 3 for tara gum and 4 for locust bean gum. The guar molecule thus has on average twice as many branches as the carob. However, within the same sample, this ratio may vary depending on the fractions. Knowledge of the M / G ratio is one way of characterizing the sample although it does not inform the statistical distribution of galactosyl residues on the main chain.

Galactomannans have the following chemical structure:

i ≈ 3: Loewî fea® ws = • 2; Tara gara

Tara gum is characterized by a more statistically random distribution of lateral chains while carob is characterized by a non-statistically random and non-regular distribution, with alternating unsubstituted blocks of intermediate length (smooth regions) and branched blocks (regions hairy). Flour guar has very few smooth regions, with very regular distribution of side chains of galactose.

As for cellulose, the galactomannans that can be used according to the invention contain primary and secondary hydroxyl groups, which, in principle, can be derived and substituted. At the industrial level, only hydroxyalkyl derivatives, carboxymethyl and cationic derivatives, as well as partially depolymerized grades, are commercially available.

The hydroxyalkyl derivatives which can be used according to the invention are obtained for example by treating galactomannans with ethylene or with propylene oxide in an alkaline medium. These derivatives differ from the raw material in their faster hydration kinetics and better solubility.

The products that can be used according to the invention can also be carboxymethyl derivatives. These derivatives are obtained by "etherification" of a certain portion of the hydroxyl groups with hydrochloric acid or sodium chloroacetate. Unlike carboxymethylcelluloses, which are soluble only from degrees of substitution of 0.7 to 1.0, galactomannans (if not already soluble before chemical modification) become completely soluble at a degree of substitution of less than 0.05.

The products that can be used according to the invention can also be cationic derivatives. Cationic derivatives are obtained by treating galactomannans with suitable organic amines such as 2-hydroxy-3-chloropropyltrimethylammonium chloride or its reaction product, 2,3-epoxypropyltrimethylammonium chloride, which is formed in an alkaline medium.

Finally, the products that can be used according to the invention can be partially depolymerized galactomannans, thus having reduced viscosities. These depolymerizations are obtained by acid hydrolysis, oxidation, or enzymatic degradation.

Guar Guar gum is characterized by a ratio of mannose: galactose of the order of 2: 1. The galactose group is regularly distributed along the mannose chain. The guar gums that may be used according to the invention may be nonionic, cationic or anionic.

According to the invention, chemically modified or unmodified nonionic guar gums can be used.

Non unmodified nonionic guar gums are for example the products sold under the name VIDOGUM GH VIDOGUM G and Vidocrem by Unipektin company and under the name Jaguar by Rhodia under the name Meypro ^® Guar by the company Danisco under the name VISCOGUM ™ by the company Cargill, and under the name Supercol ^® guar gum by the company Aqualon.

The nonionic guar gums hydrolyzed used according to the invention are for example represented by the products sold under the name Meyprodor ^® by the company Danisco.

The modified nonionic guar gums which can be used according to the invention are preferably modified with dC ₆ hydroxyalkyl groups.

Among the hydroxyalkyl groups, there may be mentioned by way of example, the hydroxymethyl, hydroxyethyl, hydroxypropyl and hydroxybutyl groups.

These guar gums are well known in the state of the art and may for example be prepared by reacting corresponding alkene oxides, such as, for example, propylene oxides, with guar gum so as to obtain a gum of guar modified with hydroxypropyl groups.

The level of hydroxyalkylation, which corresponds to the number of alkylene oxide molecules consumed by the number of free hydroxyl functions present on the guar gum, preferably varies from 0.4 to 1.2.

Such nonionic guar gums optionally modified with hydroxyalkyl groups are for example sold under the trade names Jaguar HP 60, Jaguar HP 105 and Jaguar HP 120 (hydroxypropyl guar), by Rhodia, or under the name N-Hance ^® HP (hydroxypropyl guar) by the company Aqualon. The compositions according to the invention may also comprise a cationic galactomannan gum. Preferably the galactomannan gum is a cationic guar gum.

The cationic galactomannan gums preferably have a cationic charge density less than or equal to 1.5 meq / g and more particularly between 0.1 and 1 meq./g. The charge density can be determined according to the Kjeldahl method. It generally corresponds to a pH of the order of 3 to 9.

In general terms, within the meaning of the present invention, the term "cationic galactomannan gum" means any galactomannan gum containing cationic groups and / or ionizable groups in cationic groups.

The preferred cationic groups are chosen from those comprising primary, secondary, tertiary and / or quaternary amine groups.

The cationic galactomannan gums used generally have a weight average molecular weight of between about 500 and 5 × 10 ⁶ , and preferably between about 10 ³ and ³ × 10 ⁶ .

The cationic galactomannan gums that can be used according to the present invention are, for example, gums comprising trialkyl (d-C ₄ ) ammonium cationic groups. Preferably, 2 to 30% by number of the hydroxyl functions of these gums carry trialkylammonium cationic groups.

Among these trialkylammonium groups, there may be mentioned very particularly trimethylammonium and triethylammonium groups.

Even more preferentially, these groups represent from 5 to 20% by weight of the total weight of the modified galactomannan gum.

According to the invention, a guar gum comprising hydroxypropyltrimethylammonium groups, that is to say a gum modified for example by 2,3-epoxypropyltrimethylammonium chloride, is preferably used.

Example of a cationic guar structure:

These galactomannan gums, in particular guar gums modified with cationic groups, are products that are already known per se and are described, for example, in US Pat. Nos. 3,589,578 and 4,031,307. Such products are sold in particular under the US Pat. tradenames Jaguar EXCEL, Jaguar C13 S, Jaguar C 15, Jaguar C 17 and Jaguar C162 (guar hydroxypropyltrimonium chloride) by Rhodia under the name Amilan ^® Guar (guar hydroxypropyltrimonium chloride) by Degussa and under the name N-Hance ^® 3000 (Guar Hydroxypropyltrimonium Chloride) by Aqualon.

According to the invention, the cationic galactomannan gum may represent from 0.001% to 10% by weight, preferably from 0.005% to 5% by weight, and still more preferably from 0.01% to 3% by weight, of the total weight of the composition.

The anionic guar gums that may be used according to the invention are polymers containing groups derived from carboxylic, sulfonic, sulphene, phosphoric, phosphonic acid or pyruvic acid. Preferably the anionic group is a carboxylic acid group. The anionic group may also be in the form of an acid salt, especially a salt of sodium, calcium, lithium or potassium.

The anionic guar gums that can be used according to the invention are preferably carboxymethyl guar derivatives (carboxymethyl guar or carboxymethyl hydroxypropyl guar). Carob

Locust bean gum is extracted from carob tree seeds (Ceratonia siliqua), which is an evergreen tree native to Syria and Asia Minor but grown throughout the Mediterranean coast.

Galactose sugars are also not evenly distributed along the chain, but tend to be grouped together in blocks. The chains have an irregular structure with "smooth" zones and alternately substituted zones.

Locust bean gum useful in this invention can be chemically modified with the same chemical modifications as previously described for guar gum.

The gum unmodified carob used in this invention is sold for example under the name Viscogum ™ by Cargill under the name VIDOGUM L by Unipektin company, under the name Grinsted ^® LBG by Danisco. The chemically modified carob gums which can be used in this invention can be represented, for example, by the cationic carob sold under the name Catinal CLB (carob Hydroxypropyltrimonium Chloride) by the company Toho.

TARA rubber

The tara gum for use in this invention can be chemically modified with the same chemical modifications as previously described for guar gum.

The Tara gum that can be used in the context of this invention is sold, for example, under the name Vidogum SP by the company Unipektin.

Glucomannans (konjac gum): Glucomannan is a high molecular weight polysaccharide (500,000 <Mglucomannan <2,000,000), composed of D-mannose units and D-glucose with branching every 50 or 60 units. It is found in wood but it is also the main constituent of Konjac gum. Konjac (Amorphophallus konjac) is a plant of the family Araceae.

Chemical structure of konjac gum:

The products used according to the invention are for example sold under the name ^® and Propol Rheolex ^® by the company Shimizu.

LM and HM pectins, and derivatives

Pectins, or more broadly pectic substances, are polysaccharides, attached to carbohydrates. These are substances of exclusively vegetable origin. Pectin is present in large quantities in some algae, in pips and zests of gooseberry, apple, quince, lemon. The pectins are extracted from the raw material by solubilization in hot acid medium and then by precipitation in alcohol. The precipitate is then washed with a sodium hydroxide solution to obtain the desired pH.

Pectins are polymers of acidic polysaccharides. The pectins are linear polymers of α-D-galacturonic acid (at least 65%) bonded in position 1 and 4, with a certain proportion of carboxylic groups esterified with a methanol group. About 20% of the sugars constituting the pectin molecule are neutral sugars (L-rhamnose, D-glucose, D-galactose, L-arabinose, D-xylose). The residues of L-rhamnose are found in all the pectins, integrated in the main chain in positions 1, 2. They are at the origin of the nonlinear character of the main chain (cf chemical structure). Their molecular weight is of the order of 10 ⁵ g / mol.

Chemical structure (polygalacturonic acid):

Uronic acid molecules have carboxyl functions. This function gives pectins the ability to exchange ions when they are in COO form. ^" Bivalent ions (calcium in particular) have the ability to form ionic bridges between two carboxyl groups of two different pectin molecules. In the natural state, a certain proportion of the carboxylic groups are esterified by a methanol group The degree of natural esterification of a pectin can vary between 70 (apple, lemon) and 10% (strawberry) depending on the source used. From pectins of high degree of esterification, it is possible to hydrolyze the -COOCH ₃ groups, in order to obtain weakly esterified pectins Depending on the proportion of methylated monomers or not, the chain is therefore more or less acidic. thus defines the pectins HM (High methoxy), having a degree of esterification greater than 50%, and pectins LM (Low Methoxy), having a degree of esterification less than 50%.

In the case of amidated pectins, the -OCH ₃ group is substituted with a -NH ₂ group.

The degree of esterification influences the gelation properties of the HM pectins. The ester group is less hydrophilic than the acidic group, and therefore HM pectin (with a high degree of esterification) gels at a higher temperature than LM pectin (with a low degree of esterification). The difference is reflected in terms of fast, medium and slow gelation.

The pectins are marketed by the company Cargill under the name Unipectine ™, by the company CP-Kelco under the name GENU, by Danisco under the name GRINSTED Pectin.

Other Polysaccharides:

Chitin, chitosan and derivatives Among the polysaccharides that may be used according to the invention, mention may also be made of polysaccharides originating from the animal kingdom. This is for example the case of chitin, chitosan and derivatives (chitosan-beta-glycerophosphate, carboxymethylchitine, etc.).

Chitin is an amino sugar, polysaccharide, made of acetylglucosamine (N-acetyl-D-glucose-2-amino) groups linked together by a β-type bond (1, 4). It is this type of bond that links the glucose groups in the cellulose molecule.

The chemical name of the molecule is PoIy N-acetyl-D-glucosamine, β (1, 4) -2-Acetamido

2-deoxy-D-glucose.

Chitin is one of the constituents of the cuticle of insects, spiders and crustaceans, so it has a protective role. Associated with calcium carbonate, it becomes rigid and then forms the exoskeleton of crustaceans and all shelled animals such as snails.

Chitosan is a polysaccharide composed of the random distribution of β (1,4) linked D-glucosamine (deacetylated unit) and N-acetyl-D-glucosamine (acetylated unit). It is produced by chemical (alkaline) or enzymatic deacetylation of chitin, the component of the exoskeleton of arthropods (crustaceans) or the endoskeleton of cephalopods (calamari ...) or the wall of fungi. This raw material is demineralized by treatment with hydrochloric acid, then deproteinized in the presence of sodium hydroxide or potassium hydroxide and finally discolored with an oxidizing agent.

Chemical structure of chitosan:

The degree of acetylation (DA) is the percentage of acetylated units relative to the number of total units, it can be determined by Fourier transform infrared spectrometry (TF-IR) or by a strong base titration. The border between chitosan and chitin corresponds to a DA of 50%: on the other hand, the compound is called chitosan, beyond, chitin. Chitosan is soluble in acidic medium unlike chitin which is insoluble. It is It is important to distinguish between the degree of acetylation (DA) and the degree of deacetylation (DD). One being the opposite of the other, that is to say that chitosan having an 85% DD, has 15% of acetyl groups and 85% of amino groups on its chains.

Chitin is a particularly effective moisturizing agent. Its advantage is twofold: it brings water and prevents dehydration. In addition, the great advantage of chitin and its derivatives is the persistence of this moisturizing power over time. Finally, chitosan forms on the surface of the skin a protective and tensor film, able to fix other active ingredients for the skin. Thus other moisturizing agents, sunscreens, organic acids or other active ingredients may be associated with chitin derivatives. Chitin would promote their effects.

The products that can be used according to the invention are, for example, those sold by France-Chitine.

Glycosaminoglycans (GAG)

Hyaluronic acid, chondroitin sulfate, dermatan sulfate, keratan sulfate or heparin and heparan sulfate may be mentioned in particular.

The polysaccharides that may be used according to the invention are also represented by glycosaminoglycans or glycosaminoglycans (GAGs). These polysaccharides have long been referred to as "acidic mucopolysaccharides" because of their high water retention capacity ("muco"), their carbohydrate nature ("polysaccharides") and their acidity from their multiples. negative charges ("acids"). It is indeed sulphated linear (unbranched) chains composed of the repetition of a basic diholoside always containing a hexosamine (glucosamine (GIcN) or galactosamine (GaIN)) and another monosaccharide (glucuronic acid (GIcA), iduronic acid (IdoA), galactose (GaI)). Glucosamine is either N-sulfated (GIcNS) or N-acetylated (GIcNac). Galactosamine is always N-acetylated (GaINac).

They form important connective tissue components and account for about 30 percent of organic matter.

GAG chains can be covalently linked to a protein to form proteoglycans. GAGs include chondroitin sulfate (elastic cartilage, hyaline cartilage, bone, dermis, cornea), dermatan sulfate (dermis, tendon, ligament, fibrous cartilage), keratan sulfate (cartilage, cornea), heparin / heparan sulfate ( liver, lung, aorta), and hyaluronic acid.

On the one hand, we distinguish simple polymers which only have GIcA residues along their chain (hyaluronic acid, chondroitin sulfate) and, on the other hand, copolymers comprising both residues of GIcA and IdoA (heparin). heparan sulfate and dermatan sulfate). There are also glucosaminoglycans of structure [UA-GlcN] n and galactosaminoglycans of structure [UA-GalN] n.

Hyaluronic acid (from the Greek hyalos = vitreous + uronic because it was first isolated from the vitreous humor and has a high level of uronic acid) is a glycosaminoglycan distributed widely among the connective tissues, epithelial and nervous. It is found, for example, in vitreous humor and synovial fluid. It is one of the main components of the extracellular matrix. It contributes significantly to the proliferation and migration of cells. He may be involved in the progression of certain malignant tumors.

It is associated with a protein fraction to form a mucoprotein. Hyaluronic acid is a polymer of disaccharides, themselves composed of D-glucuronic acid and DN-acetylglucosamine, linked to each other by alternating glycoside bonds β (1, 4) and β (1, 3). The polymers of this repeating unit can have a size between 10 ² and 10 ⁴ kDa in vivo.

Chemical structure of hyaluronic acid:

Hyaluronic acid is energy stable, partly because of the stereochemical aspects of the disaccharides that make it up.

Hyaluronic acid is made up of about 50000 dissachable units, it is about the size of a bacterium and has a gel appearance.

Hyaluronic acid is mainly obtained, industrially, by two different processes: extraction of rooster ridges (after grinding, chemical treatment and purification), or bacterial fermentation (the hyaluronic acid filaments are synthesized by genetically modified bacteria) .

Sodium hyaluronate is the sodium salt of hyaluronic acid.

Chondroitin sulfate, or chondroitin sulfate, is a glycosaminoglycan found in connective tissue.

Chondroitin sulfate is a component of the cartilage matrix. Its function is to maintain osmotic pressure by absorbing water and helping to moisturize cartilage. It also contributes to the flexibility and elasticity of the bone. More importantly, it acts as a chondroprotective agent protecting the cartilage against enzymatic reactions and free radical damage (including nitric oxide released by chondrocytes). The basic unit of chondroitin sulfate is glucuronic acid β (1, 3) N-acetyl galactosamine 6 sulfate. Each unit is connected to the next by a link β (1, 4). Chondroitin sulfate varies in its composition depending on the animal species even if the basic structure is mainly unchanged.

Chemical structure of chondroitin sulfate:

Heparin is a molecule that is part of the glycosaminoglycans (GAG).

It is formed of the dimer L-iduronic acid-2-O-sulfate (α (1,4) D-glucosamine-N-sulfate, 6-0-sulfate α (1, 4).

The wheat grain arabinoxylan is composed of residues of β-D-xylopyranose (Rodionova et al., 1992). Xylans consist of a main chain of β-linked (1, 4) -D-xylose units on which three substitutes are found (Rouau & Thibault, 1987): acidic units, α-L- arabinofuranose, side chains that may contain arabinose, xylose, galactose and glucuronic acid. Arabinoxylan generally consists of 1500-5000 residues of α-L-arabinofuranose and D-xylopyranose (Chaplin, 2004). The presence of arabinose side chains reduces the interaction between chains because of their hydrophilic and flexible furanose conformation (Chaplin, 2004).
