COSMETIC-PHARMACEUTICAL OIL COMPONENTS

New oil components for cosmetic and pharmaceutical applications consist of reaction products of epoxidized triglyceride oils with monohydric alcohols containing from 1 to 4 carbon atoms. The oil components are produced by reacting an epoxidized triglyceride oil containing from about 4 to about 8% by...

More Information
Summary:New oil components for cosmetic and pharmaceutical applications consist of reaction products of epoxidized triglyceride oils with monohydric alcohols containing from 1 to 4 carbon atoms. The oil components are produced by reacting an epoxidized triglyceride oil containing from about 4 to about 8% by weight of epoxide oxygen, preferably an epoxidized soya bean oil containing from about 6 to about 7% by weight of epoxide oxygen, in the presence of an acidic catalyst with a monohydric C1-C4-alcohol, preferably methanol, in excess at the boiling temperature of the alcohol until the oxirane rings have been completely opened, followed by neutralizing the catalyst and distilling off the excess alcohol. The new oil components are eminently suitable, inter alia, for the production of cosmetic stick preparations.
