  • Patent number: 9949900
    Abstract: A method for preparing a liquid crystal emulsion includes: a) mixing, warming and dissolving intercellular lipid ingredients, non-polyoxyethylene (POE) based non-ionic surfactant, higher fatty alcohol, oil and wax to provide an oil phase part; b) mixing, warming and dissolving water, polyol and the other aqueous phase ingredients to provide an aqueous phase part; c) adding the oil phase part to the aqueous phase part, followed by agitation; d) introducing a viscosity modifier to the mixture solution under agitation; e) subjecting the mixture solution to rapid cooling under vacuum while carrying out debubbling under vacuum; and f) filtering the mixture solution through a filtering paper or filtering cloth. Provided is a stable liquid crystal emulsion having a multilayer lamellar structure including a large amount of intercellular lipid ingredients through a process using rapid cooling. The liquid crystal emulsion has an oil phase part and an aqueous phase part.

  • Patent number: 9687423
    Abstract: Provided is a method for preparing a nanoemulsion, including mixing an oil phase part (A) containing a ceramide or derivative thereof, cholesterol, non-ionic surfactant, phospholipid and a polyol, a perfume part (B) containing a perfume ingredient, non-ionic surfactant and an alcohol, and an aqueous phase part (C) containing the other water-soluble active ingredients. When a nanoemulsion is obtained by the method, it is possible to reduce processing time and cost since a non-ionic surfactant is used without a high-pressure emulsification process, and the obtained nanoemulsion is more stable against a change in temperature than the other solubilized formulations.

  • Patent number: 9688832
    Abstract: A method for preparing macroporous polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) particles includes the steps of: (a) dissolving a polymethyl methacrylate polymer and Pluronic polymer into an organic solvent; (b) introducing the mixed solution of step (a) to an aqueous solution containing a surfactant to carry out emulsion polymerization; (c) heating the resultant product of step (b) to allow evaporation of the organic solvent; and (d) washing and drying the porous polymethyl methacrylate particles remaining after the evaporation.

  • Publication number: 20070009455
    Abstract: Provided are a stabilized, skin-whitening and antioxidative cosmetic composition including resveratrol as a main component and either a primary stabilizer selected from cyclodextrin, polyethyleneglycol, and a mixture thereof, or a combination of the primary stabilizer and a secondary stabilizer selected from an alpha-lipoic acid, a water-soluble whitening composition, a phellodendron extract, an alteromonas ferment extract, and a mixture thereof, and a method for preparing the same. The cosmetic composition provides excellent skin whitening and antioxidative effects for a long-term even when used in a small quantity. Furthermore, solubility of the resveratrol and the alpha-lipoic acid in polyol or ethanol is enhanced, thereby improving low use satisfaction and skin irritation that may be caused due to excess use of an organic solvent. In addition, problems such as crystal precipitation at low temperature, off-flavor and discoloration upon exposure to sun light can be solved.
