  • Publication number: 20200078272
    Abstract: A method for producing a ceramide microparticle dispersion causes a first mixture in a liquid state containing a ceramide and sterols and a second mixture in a liquid state containing water to separately flow, merges the first and second mixtures together, and passes a fluid formed by merging the first and second mixtures together through a small hole having a hole diameter of 0.03 mm or larger and 20 mm or smaller. A mass ratio of a content of a water-soluble organic solvent to a content of the ceramide in the first mixture is 0 or more and 30 or less.

  • Patent number: 8652448
    Abstract: Hydrogel particles include: a continuous phase of non-crosslinked hydrogel; and a dispersed phase dispersed in the continuous phase. The dispersed phase includes a crystalline organic UV absorber and a solid fat having an organic value (OV) of 310 or more and an inorganic value (IV) of 130 or more on an organic conceptual diagram. The content of the crystalline organic UV absorber in the dispersed phase is 15-70 mass %.
