  • Publication number: 20230346711
    Abstract: Encapsulated peroxide particles inhibit skin inflammation. A method of encapsulating a solid peroxide comprises dispersing solid peroxide particles (e.g., benzoyl peroxide) in an aqueous dispersion of fatty acid salt to form a peroxide/fatty acid salt dispersion, wherein the peroxide particles have a mean particle size (D50) of 10 ?m or less; and subsequently encapsulating the solid peroxide particles by reacting the one or more monovalent fatty acid salts with one or more multivalent salts of calcium, magnesium, aluminum, silver, and/or zinc, thereby forming encapsulated peroxide particles.

  • Patent number: 10925302
    Abstract: The viscosity of aqueous dispersions of normally solid organic peroxides may be advantageously lowered through the use of surfactants which are polyglyceryl esters of C6-C12 fatty acids. The reduction in viscosity facilitates milling the peroxides to reduce particle size and also provides dispersions of small particle size peroxides which may be readily poured or pumped. The aqueous dispersions are useful as components of pharmaceutical, personal care, and cleaning products and the like and are effective decolorizing agents for food products, industrial products and the like.

  • Publication number: 20110086959
    Abstract: Provided are dispersions which comprise more than about (40) percent by weight of an organic peroxide which is normally solid, an effective dispersing amount of a pharmaceutically acceptable dispersing agent and water. The water and about (40) percent or more peroxide forms a paste. Addition of the dispersing agent/surfactant to a non-flowing organic paste resulted in the formation of a shear thinning aqueous dispersion. The aqueous dispersions can also contain optional components such as thickening agents and anionic emulsifiers.
