Abstract

The invention provides polyglycerol partial esters based on mono- and dicarboxylic acids and their use as solubilizers, particularly in cosmetics, for example for perfume oils and essential oils in aqueous systems.

First claim

1 . A polyglycerol partial ester obtainable by esterification of a polyglycerol with a carboxylic acid mixture comprising:
a) at least one short-chain dicarboxylic acid having 2 to 12 carbon atoms, and b) at least one saturated fatty acid having 6 to 14 carbon atoms, wherein the molar ratio of polyglycerol to dicarboxylic acid to saturated fatty acid is in a ratio of from 3.1:1.0:0.5 to 14:1.0:6.0.

2 . The polyglycerol partial ester according to claim 1 , wherein the polyglycerol has an average degree of condensation N of 1.5 to 9.

3 . The polyglycerol partial ester according to claim 1 , wherein the polyglycerol used has a hydroxyl number of 1500 to 900 mg KOH/g.

4 . The polyglycerol partial ester according to claim 1 , wherein the short-chain dicarboxylic acid is selected from aliphatic, linear dicarboxylic acids, in particular oxalic acid, malonic acid, succinic acid, glutaric acid, adipic acid, pimelic acid, suberic acid, azelaic acid, sebacic acid, and dodecanedioic acid.

5 . The polyglycerol partial ester according to claim 1 , wherein the saturated fatty acid is selected from unbranched, unsubstituted fatty acids.

6 . The polyglycerol partial ester according to claim 1 , wherein the esterification the molar ratio of a) to b) is
from 1.0:0.7 to 1.0:3.0.

7 . The polyglycerol partial ester according to claim 1 , wherein at 1 bar it has a turbidity point of 45 to 75° C.

8 . The polyglycerol partial ester according to claim 1 , wherein it has an HLB value of 13 to 17.

9 . The polyglycerol partial ester according to claim 1 , wherein it has a surface tension of less than 28 mN/m in 1.0% aqueous solution at 20° C.

10 . The polyglycerol partial ester according to claim 1 , wherein it has a saponification number of 70 to 199 mg KOH/g.

11 . The use of at least one polyglycerol partial ester according to claim 1 as solubilizer, particularly in cosmetic or pharmaceutical preparations.
