Description

WO 98/23150 PCT/US97/20358 INSECT REPELLENT EMULSIONS INTRODUCTION TO THE INVENTION The present invention relates to fluid -formulations-containing the insect repel-ent agent DEET, and more particularly to emulsion formulations thereof..
Man has long used various chemical agents to reduce attacks by bothersome insects, such as mosquitoes, flies, ticks, wasps and bees. The most widely used insect repellent agent at the present time is NN-Diethyl-m-toluamide, frequently called "DEET." DEET is an unctuous, somewhat hygroscopic,..light- -sensitive, oily material having a very high solvency for other water-insoluble materials. It has some notoriety for being difficult to emulsify, so is frequently used in concentrated..form or formulated- as an'aerosol spray or dilute solution, or in solid or semi-solid form such as in a stick. To repel insects, one applies DEET or 'formulations containing up to about- 100% DEET to clothing and exposed skin.
However, humans usually prefer the feel- of aqueous materials on their skin. In the cosmetic and medical fields, it has been found that oily materials can be S made more pleasing by their incorporation, into oil-inwater emulsions. Since the droplets of insoluble material are completely surrounded by the aqueous phase, the sensation to the--skin is essentially one of applying aqueous materials. Emulsions are also easier to apply evenly to skin, than are solutions, sprays and gelled materials in stick form. DEET, however, does not typically form emulsions having commercially required stability, and it is quite undesirable to require users to mix the separated phases before using products.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The invention provides an insect repellent emulsion composition comprising: an insect repelling effective amount of N,N-Diethyl-m-toluamide; water; 0.1 to 5 percent by weight of a film-forming polymer selected from the group consisting of copolymers of octadecene and maleic anhydride, copolymers of 1-triacontane and vinyl pyrrolidone, acrylates/octylacrylamide copolymer, acrylates/PVP copolymer, acrylates/acrylamide copolymer, acrylates/VA copolymer, ethylene/maleic anhydride copolymer, polyisobutene, polyvinyl alcohol,.PVP/eicosane copolymer, starch/acrylates/acrylamide copolymer, hexanedioic acid polymers and mixtures of any two or more 20 thereof; 0.01 to 5 percent by weight of an emulsifieremulsion stabilizer selected from the group consisting of acrylates/Cl0-30 alkyl acrylate crosspolymer, carbomer, methyl vinyl ether/maleic anhydride copolymer, a salt of triethanolamine and stearic acid, and mixtures of any two 25 of more thereof; and, optionally, from 0.1 to 10 percent by weight of an emulsifying agent selected from the group consisting of sorbitan stearate, stearic acid, sorbitan oleate, cetyl alcohol, glyceryl oleates, glycerl stearates, sorbitan sesquioleate, DEA-cetyl phosphate, Oleth-20, PEG-8 distearate, PEG-8 oleate, PEG-2 stearate, Polysorbate 20, Polysorbate 60, Polysorbate 80, propylene glycol stearate, sodium laureth sulfate and mixtures of two or more thereof.
34116.DOC DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION In this application, all references to "percent" shall mean percent by weight, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise. Many of the formulation components (surfactants, emulsion stabilizers, filmformers, etc.) are identified herein by their names as given in the monographs of J. A. Wenninger et al., Eds., CTFA Cosmetic Ingredient Handbook, Second Edition, The Cosmetic, Toiletry and Fragrance Association, Inc., Washington, 1992.
DEET is commercially available in the form of a technical concentrate which contains at least about DEET. The remaining 5% or less comprises moisture and isomers other than the meta-toluic isomer, which other isomers are considered to also have some insect repellent activity,..plus small amounts of impurities which are artifacts of the manufacturing process employed.-..For.simplicity, a recitation herein of-DEET concentration shall ignore the other components of the concentrate: "10% DEET" shall indicate that a 3 34116.DOC 3 formulation contains 10% of a commercial technical concentrate.
The emulsions of the present invention contain an insect repelling effective amount of DEET, generally about 5 to about 25 percent, together with water, a film-forming polymer and an emulsifier-emulsion stabilizer. In some instances, a supplemental emulsifying agent may be useful as a formulation component.
Suitable supplemental emulsifiers include, without limitation, the surfactants sorbitan stearate, stearic acid, sorbitan oleate, cetyl alcohol, glyceryl oleates, glyceryl stearates, sorbitan sesquioleate, DEA-cetyl phosphate, Oleth-20, PEG-8 distearate, PEG-8 oleate, PEG-2 stearate, Polysorbate 20, Polysorbate S* 15 Polysorbate 80, .,.prppylene glycol stearate, sodium laureth sulfate, sorbitan sesquioleate and many others known in the art. In general, and keeping in mind that there are numerous exceptions to this statement, oil- S. in-water emulsions are prepared using emulsifiers 20 having hydrophilic-lipophilic balance values about 8 to about 18. Combinations of emulsifiers may *be used, and frequently will be found to impart a greater emulsion stability than single emulsifiers.
When combinations a-e used, all of the individual HLB 25 values may not always be within the above range, but the overall HLB value usually will be. In general, when present, the emulsifier component will amount to about 0.1% to about 10% of the formulation.
A film-forming polymer is present to provide a continuous film upon skin application and water resistance to the formulation. Water resistance may assist in obtaining an enhanced duration of action for the insect repellent agent. This would be particularly desirable for users participating in water-related activities, such as fishing, water skiing, swimming or activities which may incidentally involve water contact, or for users who are engaged in strenuous WO 98/23150 PCT/US97/20358.
-4sports or work activities and perspire heavily. Useful film formers include: copolymers of octadecene and maleic anhydride; copolymers of 1-triacontane and vinyl pyrrolidone; acrylates/octylacrylamide copolymer; acrylates/PVP copolymer; acrylates/acrylamide copolymer; acrylates/VA copolymer; ethylene/maleic anhydride copolymer; polyisobutene; polyvinyl alcohol; PVP/eicosane copolymer; starch/acrylates/acrylamide copolymer; and. hexanedioic acid polymers. Such ingredients will generaily be present in a formulation in amounts about 0.1% to about Also required in the formulation is an emulsifieremulsion stabilizer, such as'-an acrylates/C1-0-30 alkyl acrylate crosspolymer, carbomer, methyl vinyl ether/maleic anhydride copolymer or a triethanolamine salt of stearic-acid. Suitable acrylates/C10-30 alkylacrylate crosspolymer materials are commercially -available from B.F. Goodrich Chemicals, Akron, Ohio under the trade names PEMULEN® TR-1 and TR-2, or CARBOPOL®. The concentration of emulsifier-emulsion.
stabilizer in the formulation will typically be about 0.01% to about In some formulations, it has been found that the concentration of the emulsion stabilizer PEMULEN TR-2 should not exceed about to avoid viscosity increases which adversely affecE emulsion preparation and handling.
Other components, while not required, are commonly included in skin care products to enhance the feel of the material upon.application, to treat dry skin conditions and/or---to protect the formulation against midrbbial contamination. These include emollients, fragrances, preservatives, vitamins, humectants, skin conditioners, antioxidants and others. Any of such materials may be_included as desired, in addition-tothe required components.
SU ncsreening ingredients are also useful optional components of the formulations,--when the user desires WO 98/23150 PCT/US97/20358 concomitant protection against excessive ultraviolet radiation exposure. Since the choice of sunscreen active agents is usually limited to those having governmental approvals, those skilled in the art wil-l be aware of acceptable compounds. In the United States, these currently include: aminobenzoic acid; cinoxate; diethanolamine p-methoxycinnamate; digalloyl trioleate; dioxybenzone;-ethyl 4-[bis(hydroxypropyl)] .aminobenzoate; 2-ethylhexyl 2-cyano-3,3diphenylacrylate; ethylhexyl p-methoxycinnamate; 2ethylhexyl. salicylate; glyceryl aminobenzoate; .homosalate; lawsone with dihydroxyacetone; menthyl anthranilate; oxybenzone; Padimate A; Padimate 0; 2acid; red petrolatum; sulisobenzone; and triethanolamine salicylate. Other active sunscreen ingredients,. such as avobenzone, titanium dioxide and phenylbenzimidazole sulfonic acid, are approved for use in many countries and may also be incorporated into the insect repellent formulations of the present invention.
Sunscreening ingredients will be used in sunscreeneffective-amounts-.as needed to.provide a desired sun protection factor (SPF), which may be measured using at least the-essence of the procedure proposed to be established by the United States Food and Drug Administration as Title 21,-Code of Federal Regulations,.Part 352, Subpart D (Sections 352.70- 352.77), which proposal was published in the Federal Register on May 12, 1993 at pages 28298-28301. In general, up to about 30 percent sunscreens can be used.
The invention will be further illustrated by the following examples, which are not intended to limit the scope of the invention as defined in-the appended claims.
