SURFACE-TREATED POWDER AND WATER-DISPERSIBLE COSMETIC COMPOSITION USING THE SURFACE-TREATED POWDER AND O/W-TYPE COSMETIC COMPOSITION USING THE SURFACE-TREATED POWDER
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide surface-treated powder capable of preventing elution thereof into water while expressing physical properties of metal oxide provided as a base material (UV shielding ability, chemical stability due to being an inorganic material (not an organic compound)), which has been desired in the art.SOLUTION: The surface-treated power of the present invention comprises at least one oxide of a metal selected from zinc, titanium, silicon, and aluminum, the metal oxide being coated with a hydrophobizing agent and a polyether-modified silicone having a HLB level of 8 or greater. The water dispersible cosmetic composition of the present invention comprises the surface-treated powder of the present invention and a copolymer having a sulfur atom in a molecular skeleton thereof. The O/W-type cosmetic composition of the present invention comprises the water dispersible cosmetic composition of the present invention being dispersed in water.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1【課題】基材である金属酸化物の物性(紫外線遮蔽能、無機材料であること(有機系化合物ではないこと)による化学的安定性など)を発現させつつ、水への溶出を防止することができる表面処理粉体が望まれていた。【解決手段】本発明に係る表面処理粉体は亜鉛、チタン、ケイ素、アルミから選ばれる少なくとも一種以上の金属酸化物を、疎水化処理剤およびHLBが8以上のポリエーテル変性シリコーンで被覆処理したことを特徴とし、本発明に係る水分散性化粧料用組成物は本発明に係る表面処理粉体と、分子骨格中に硫黄原子を有する共重合体を含有することを特徴とし、本発明に係るO/W型化粧料は本発明に係る水分散性化粧料用組成物を水に分散させたことを特徴とする。【選択図】図1
