Abstract:

To reduce irritant and toxicity risk effectively caused by traditional cosmetics preservatives, chitosan quaternary ammonium salt-based antibacterial fiber combined with several various bacteriostatic ingredients was constructed to replace the traditional preservatives used in facial mask products, which obviously improved its broad-spectrum antibacterial ability. The antibacterial properties of antibacterial fiber combined with a variety of antibacterial components were tested. The antibacterial effects comparison among quaternary ammonium chitosan antibacterial fiber combined with plant essential oil, traditional preservatives, and antiseptic substitutes on bacteria, yeast and mold was conducted. The several antiseptic recipes include antibacterial fiber and different antibacterial components were proposed. Antibacterial test results show that the antibacterial fiber combined with hydroxyacetophenone (0.1%-mass fraction, the same below), or Eugenia caryophyllus Thunb. oil (0.05%), or Leptospermum petersonii FM. Bailey oil, or Eucalyptus globulus Labill. oil, can meet the antibacterial requirements of mask products. However, the antibacterial fiber combined with methylparaben has antagonistic effect. Among them, the combination of antibacterial fiber with Eugenia caryophyllus Thunb. oil(0.05%) has the best antibacterial effect. The antibacterial fiber can significantly improve the antibacterial effect, and the improvement rate of Eugenia caryophyllus Thunb. oil is 43.06%.

Key words: antibacterial fiber, bacteriostatic performance, mask anticorrosion, essential oil, hydroxyacetophenone
