Method For Forming Particles With Cross-Linked Coatings For Cosmetic Applications

摘要

The present invention relates to a method for forming coated particles, comprising the steps of: agitating a volume of core particles while heating to a constant average temperature of about 40° C. Once particles are generally evenly mixed, with no apparent agglomeration, the vinyl-functional silicone polymer, hydride-functional crosslinker, and metal catalyst are combined in a premix under continuous propeller-mixing. The vinyl-functional silicone polymer, hydride-functional crosslinker, and metal catalyst premix is then siphoned into the main vessel, containing the heated core particles, at rate that ensures no clumping or agglomeration of the particulates. Once even coating has been achieved, the main vessel is heated to an average temperature of about 80° C., then cooled back down to room temperature (about 20° C.-28° C.). The coated material is then passed through a 45 μm sieve to remove any large particulates that may be present.

主权项

1. A method for forming coated particles, comprising the steps of:
a) agitating a volume of core particles in a first vessel while heating said core particles to an average temperature of about 40° C.; b) combining a vinyl-functional silicone polymer, hydride-functional crosslinker, and a metal catalyst in a second vessel to form a premix; c) combining said core particles with said premix to form a mixture; d) heating said mixture to an average temperature of about 80° C., then allowing said mixture to cool to ambient temperature.
