摘要:

为了开发一种兼具防晒功能和乳液稳定性的防晒乳配方,设计了一种负载二氧化钛纳米颗粒的海藻酸钙微球(Alg@TiO2微球)来稳定Pickering乳液,用作防晒乳成分。考察了油水比和微球含量对Pickering乳液的影响,探究了乳液类型,并进行了长期保存稳定性测试。结果表明,Alg@TiO2微球形状为球形,大小为2~6 μm;Alg@TiO2微球中二氧化钛纳米颗粒含量为43%;微球与油水的三相接触角为120°;当油水比为1∶1,微球含量为3%(w/%)时,稳定的白油/水体系Pickering乳液为油包水型(W/O型),经100 d室温保存后乳液状态保持稳定。通过紫外吸收实验,和包括市售防晒乳在内的其他3种防晒乳相比,该Pickering乳液具有优异的防晒性能。通过皮肤表面清洗实验,该Pickering乳液具有易清洗的特性。

Abstract:

Sunscreen products can reduce the damage caused by UV rays, reducing tanning, inflammation and skin cancer. However, chemical sunscreen is more toxic, and the existing physical sunscreen is not stable and has poor sunscreening effect. Therefore, the development of a sunscreen formula with sunscreen function and emulsion stability has attracted extensive attention. In this work, a Pickering emulsion stabilized with calcium alginate microspheres loaded with titanium dioxide nanoparticles (Alg@TiO2 microspheres) was designed to be used as a sunscreen component. By emulsification-gel method, the Pickering emulsion stabilized by hydrophobic TiO2 nanoparticles was used as a template, and the internal aqueous phase was gelled. The TiO2 nanoparticles were fixed on the surface of calcium alginate microspheres. The prepared microspheres were characterized by scanning electron microscopy, elemental analysis, thermogravimetric analysis and wettability. The effects of oil/water ratio and microsphere content on Pickering emulsion were investigated, and the type of emulsion was explored, and the long-term storage stability was tested. The results of SEM and elemental analysis showed that the Alg@TiO2 microspheres were spherical in shape and contained TiO2 nanoparticles on the surface, and the size of Alg@TiO2 microspheres was approximately 2-6 μm. TGA results showed that the content of TiO2 nanoparticles in Alg@TiO2 microspheres was 43%. Wettability test showed that the three-phase contact angle between the microspheres and oil and water was 120°. When the oil/water ratio was 1∶1 and the mass fraction of microspheres was 3%, stable Pickering emulsion was formed with the largest emulsion volume fraction and the smallest droplet diameter. The emulsion type was water-in-oil type (W/O type). The emulsion remained stable after 100 days at room temperature, facilitating the shelf life of the emulsion cosmetics. In UV absorption tests, the Pickering emulsion showed superior sunscreen performance compared with the other three types of sunscreens, including a commercially available sunscreen. This Pickering emulsion has been demonstrated to be easy to be cleaned as shown in skin surface cleaning experiments. The Pickering emulsion with high stability and excellent sunscreen performance as a sunscreen component is expected to promote the application of Pickering emulsions in daily chemical industry and promote the research and development of new cosmetics.
