[0002] Oil conditioning container that reduces its viscosity through the application of a magnetic field and its cosmetic application method
[0004] Technical sector
[0006] The invention relates to a conditioning container for natural oils and / or fats as well as to the method of using the same in a user for the same purpose for which aromatic oils are used for wellness and cosmetic purposes. Conditioning improves the absorption of the components by reducing the viscosity of the oils.
[0008] It is applicable in the industry of products for wellness, cosmetics and parapharmacy.
[0010] State of the art
[0012] The use of oils in areas as diverse as food, cosmetics and natural therapies admit very different applications and forms of presentation.
[0013] It is well known, and we cite it only as a typical example, the case of olive oil. In addition to its food use, products based on olive oil are well known in the market as a constituent of anti-aging lotions, hair products, and anti-wrinkle creams. In the range of the parapharmacy we find presentations with olive oil to treat psoriasis and even sexual dysfunction.
[0015] For the different areas of application, the legal requirements corresponding to each presentation must be considered, which may vary depending on whether the legal authorization is for food, cosmetic or parapharmacy area use. This proposal is framed in the area of cosmetics and personal well-being ( wellness).
[0017] The conceptual start of our development is the field of activity currently called postharvest engineering, (PHE: Post Harvest Engineering), which is nothing but the application of physical technologies for the treatment of food products, seeking to increase their durability, state of conservation , or the improvement of its properties.
[0018] For this reason, it can be said that the role of PHE techniques is especially interesting in the area of food, but that with a specific treatment it is also possible to apply it for non-food purposes, as is our case. With the encouragement that non-food products are usually newer and more expensive than food products, in addition to often taking advantage of previously discarded parts. The advantage of using PHE techniques for treating aromatic oils obtained from wild plants typical of the flora of each country is also evident.
[0020] In the food sector, the PHE focuses either on improving food processing processes, or on improving preservation processes.
[0022] In general, and in relation to food preservation processes, the processes developed within the framework of the PHE are mainly focused on the use of physical energy without thermal effects, unlike the more everyday processes of traditional canning and pasteurization .
[0023] Without claiming to be exhaustive, the physical processes of the PHE are cited whose use entails an improvement in the quality or functionality of the food, without necessarily producing an extension of the conservation time.
[0025] The most relevant is the use of alternating magnetic fields. These fields were initially used looking for a tool similar to the pasteurization carried out with HEFP technology, and it seems that its effect is appreciable only for some species of microorganisms [José Zapata Montoya et al. (2002). Effect of Magnetic Fields on the Growth of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Interciencia. 27. 544-550,]. In general, this use is subject to controversy and is not considered fully effective [Gustavo V. Barbosa-Cánovas et al. "Oscillating Magnetic Fields". Journal of Food Science. November 2000, 86-89.].
[0027] In other types of applications the treatment with oscillating magnetic fields is useful, although not very advantageous, for example to stimulate the fermentation of the must in the production of alcoholic beverages.
[0029] It can also be explained, as not very frequent application of magnetic fields, in this case permanent, the improvement of the quality or the functionality of very specific foods. Such is the case in limiting excess foam that occurs in some beers. For this reason, there are commercial models of beer jugs that have a magnet placed at their bottom. The patent US2006011629A1 can also be cited.
[0031] As a summary, it could be said that, up to now, magnetic fields seem to have their technological niche in a moderate improvement of the properties of certain fermented beverages, but not in the prolongation of their shelf life.
[0033] Once the conceptual start of our development has been introduced and the main PHE processes for food purposes have been listed, we will now present our method, framing it in this case in the uses for non-food products of certain PHE processes.
[0035] Specifically, we refer to the use of magnetic fields to modify certain characteristics of oils of vegetable origin, either from cultivated plants or from extraction of wild plants, in order to optimize their functionality for use within the area of cosmetics and personal well-being.
[0037] There is no known method or apparatus capable of obtaining the advantages of the invention.
[0039] Brief explanation of the invention
[0041] The invention consists of a conditioning container for oils and a method of applying these oils according to the claims.
[0043] The possibility of using permanent magnetic fields is presented to make possible a reduction treatment of up to approximately 35% of the viscosity of liquid agricultural products, especially oils. Modification of the products is achieved by immersing them in a permanent magnetic field.
[0045] The technique described here takes advantage of the fact that, in oils of vegetable origin, the application of constant magnetic fields with an intensity of 0.4 - 0.8 T (Teslas) produces a marked variation in the paramagnetic characteristics of the solvent or majority medium, so that a very remarkable decrease in the viscosity of the product is appreciated. More so, after if subjected to the magnetic field, it remains in optimal condition to be used, taking advantage of its low viscosity for a sufficient period of time for use. This situation of decreased viscosity disappears after the mentioned period of time, since the oil spontaneously returns to its initial viscosity.
[0047] The most suggestive of the present invention is the use of a process for magnetizing liquid bodies, in this case oils.
[0049] The present invention will take advantage of the fact that, in some organic liquid molecules, the constant magnetic field acts on the hydrogen bonds, breaking them, which alters the properties of the molecules without changing their molecular architecture. This translates into a marked variation in its viscosity.
[0051] The fact that in the present investigation only magnets are used to create the magnetic fields is due to the fact that, if one tried to produce these same fields using a loop of conductive wire traversed by a direct electric current, high intensity currents would be required. For example, to produce a 0.5 T field in the center of a circular loop of radius 10 cm, a current of 79,000 amperes is required to flow through the loop. And a field with this intensity can be achieved with a commercially available permanent magnet. For this reason, in the technique described here, permanent fields are generated with permanent magnets made of ferrite, alnico, neodymium and samarium-cobalt.
[0053] Normally, 30 - 45 minutes within the constant magnetic field is sufficient for the decrease in viscosity to be established in the oil sample, although this time varies with the nature of the oil and can be adjusted for each composition with a test test. and error.
[0055] The adequacy of the oil in a container "flooded" by the magnetic field generated by permanent magnets produces an effect of reducing the viscosity of the oils. This effect is maintained, at room temperature (20 ° C, 1 atm), for a period of time of 3 to 6 hours after the removal of the magnetic field.The duration of this period depends little on the composition of the vegetable oil that has been chosen from among the beneficial vegetable oils.
[0057] Once the aforementioned period has elapsed (3 - 6 hours), a relocation of the molecules will take place and the oil undergoes a slow but unstoppable recovery of its initial viscosity.
[0059] The decrease in viscosity will be of great interest when the oils are to be used for cosmetic and relaxing use ( wellness). The low viscosity will facilitate, on the one hand, the intimate mixture of different oils or components during the conditioning of the product, and, on the other hand, its decreased surface tension will facilitate its subsequent absorption into the human skin through the pores. of the epidermis. In this way, the oil can more easily reach the intercellular spaces of the dermis, which is where absorption really takes place.
[0061] The justification for these effects is quite simple. On the one hand, it is known that the application of a magnetic field to a liquid gives rise to phenomena in the molecules such that there is a simultaneous decrease in viscosity and surface tension. It is well established in Chemistry-Physics that viscosity and surface tension are related according to a very simple mathematical relationship reflected in a formula of the type of an equation exponential [as developed by Harold Schonhorn "Surface Tension-Viscosity Relationship for Liquids" J. Chem. Eng. Data, 1967, 12 (4), pp 524-525]]. Which is to say that when we vary one, the other also changes.
[0063] It is also known that the decrease in surface tension improves the capillarity or ability of a liquid to penetrate empty spaces. For all this, it seems clear that the modification by application of a magnetic field facilitates the transfer of oils through the pores of human skin.
[0065] And once the applied liquid has entered the intercellular spaces of the dermis, a rapid metabolic process takes place due to a chemical reaction between the components of an essential oil and the intercellular medium, since the oil molecules break up and react with the proteins in the middle. And since the improvement of magnetic fields over the kinetics of chemical reactions is also well known, we have one more reason to apply an external magnetic field in the area of application of an oil.
[0067] In this way, with the application of the permanent magnetic field, the functionality of a mixture of different oils is improved to compose a suitable formulation for each particular use.
[0069] Furthermore, and as a final, beneficial but optional step for using the technique proposed here, we suggest a final step to maximize the metabolization of previously magnetized oils.
[0071] This additional step consists of the application of a permanent or alternating field, of moderate intensity, to the human tissue over the area of the anatomical zone (skin, hair) where the application of the oil or oil mixtures previously conditioned with magnetic field took place. This additional step should be done immediately upon completion of applying the oil to the skin.
[0073] The objective of this later operation is to take advantage of the interaction between the tissues and the magnetic fields in such a way as to stimulate the assimilation of said previously applied oils. In this way the application of the oils is ultimately more efficient.
[0075] If we talk about applying a permanent magnetic field with magnets juxtaposed to the skin, we are in the usual situation of well-known treatments of dysfunctions in well-being with magnets, in which the North pole of the magnets is applied to the area under treatment without the help of any medicinal product, avoiding contact with the South Pole, whose effect is irritating by increasing the local acidity in the tissue. In these cases, the continuous magnetic field flux density can be between 0.125 and 0.250 T. The same stimulatory effect on the body is exhibited by alternating magnetic fields, with the advantage of requiring less field intensity. In this case, 1.5 pT with a frequency lower than 100 Hz may be sufficient.
[0077] The biological basis for these magnetic field effects is known. The value of the viscosity of the cytoplasm of the cells was established through the measurement of the diffusion coefficient, which is valued from the frequency of the rotation collisions, which can be measured experimentally. Accordingly, the viscosity of the cytoplasm is 2.0-3.0 cP (centi Poises), about 2-3 times the viscosity of water [AM Mastro et al, "Diffusion of a small molecule in the cytoplasm of mammalian cells". PNAS June 1, 19843414 3418].
[0078] On the other hand, biophysics found that when the viscosity is lower, the diffusion of biomolecules within the cytoplasm is easier. And this determines a greater or lesser level of metabolic activity, since diffusion through the cytoplasm is what keeps the mitochondria active, which governs the metabolism of the cell. [See Jorge Fernández de Cossio Diaz et al. "A physical model of cell metabolism". Scientific Reports vol 8, article number 8349 (2018)].
[0080] A greater abundance of arguments, it can be said that it has also been proven that magnetic fields reduce the viscosity of human blood plasma by up to 20 - 30% when applied with sufficient intensity and for more than one minute [R. Tao et al "Reducing blood viscosity with magnetic fields" Physical Review E 84 (1 Pt 1): 011905 July 2011]. The curious fact is also presented that, if the applied magnetic field is suspended, the viscosity of the plasma recovers slowly until it recovers the value of the viscosity it had before the magnetic field was applied to it. The similarity with the oil conditioning process is obvious.
[0082] Thus, the oil container comprises a side wall (and generally a bottom and a lid) in which it has permanent magnets, with their N or S polarity facing the inside of the container. It is preferable for the magnets to generate a magnetic field of between 0.4 and 0.8 T inside the container. Preferably, the magnets alternate the polarity that they direct towards the interior of the container. For example, if there are six magnets, they will be oriented N-S-N-S-N-S. Although other sequences are possible such as N-N-N-S-S-S, where the alternation is by groups of magnets.
[0084] In specific areas the field may be somewhat smaller, for example in the center of the container. In these cases, the difficulty is solved by beating the oil sample under modification with a manual stirrer or with a vibrating element included in the structure of the magnetic modifying container or coupled to the container.
[0086] If the container is used with cosmetic oils, the method of applying the cosmetic oils comprises the steps of introducing an oil into the conditioning container for at least 30 minutes and applying the oil to the skin or hair of the wearer.
[0087] The useful period for using the modified oils is 3-4 hours counted from the moment of extraction of the oil from the modifying container.
[0089] A mixture of oils can be made inside the modifier container, taking advantage of the reduction in viscosity. Or add other components that are not of that nature (glycerin, vitamins ...).
[0091] It is especially advantageous to apply a magnetic field to the skin during or after applying the oil. This magnetic field can preferably be permanent and between 0.125 and 0.250 T, or alternating, up to 1.5 pT and with a frequency lower than 100 Hz. Other conditions may also be possible.
[0093] Other variants will be described later.
[0095] In the present description, all examples, residence times, etc. they have been measured at 20 ° C and 1 atm (normal conditions). As is known, the higher the temperature the viscosity is lower and the effects of the modification / conditioning last longer.
[0096] Description of the drawings
[0098] In the following, the invention will be explained in more detail with the aid of a non-limiting example of an embodiment, represented in the following figures.
[0100] Figure 1: perspective view of a simplified example of the invention.
[0102] Methods of carrying out the invention
[0104] Next, an embodiment of the invention will be briefly described, as an illustrative and non-limiting example thereof.
[0106] In general conditions, the oils to be used with the conditioning container (1) of the invention are usually contained in ampoules or containers made of non-electrically conductive and non-magnetizable material, such as glass or plastic. In this way, the container (1) is easily used with different oils, at different times, as long as the vial containing the oil is left inside the modifier for the necessary residence time (at least 30 minutes) prior to use.
[0108] The container (1) has at least some side walls (2), and preferably a bottom (3) and a lid (not shown). The bottom (3) is optional since the oil container (4) can be retained by other methods (hanging on the wall (2), for example). Likewise, the container (4) and the container (1) can be supported on a common base. The container (1) can be of a polygonal base (figure 1) or with another shape, even cylindrical, being preferred that the walls (2) are vertical.
[0110] In some versions, the container (4) can be dispensable because, for example, the oil can be supplied in glass ampoules or other containers that can be placed directly in the container (1), without the need for the container (4) or a basket.
[0112] The container (1) is a magnetic conditioner, that is, a volume of space with a sufficiently strong magnetic field where the oil samples can be located to subject them to the effect of the field. This will be produced by magnets (5), as it is the most effective solution. The magnets (5) have their polarity (North or South) oriented towards the inside of the container (1). Preferably, they will alternate the polarity they offer. Thus, if a magnet (5) orients its North face to the inside of the container (1), the adjacent ones will orient their South faces, and vice versa. For this, it is convenient that the number of magnets (5) is even, and more preferably that it is not a multiple of four.
[0114] To prevent the magnetic field from being excessively variable inside the container (1), the walls (2) have a series of magnets (5), with the poles facing the center of the container (1) (North against South or South against North). The number of magnets and their power will depend on the intensity of the magnetic field required in the entire space of the container, but it is preferable that it be a not small number so that the magnetic field can be uniformized. It is also preferred that it be an even number, to be able to face the magnets (5) in pairs.
[0116] In general it can be said with respect to the magnetic conditioner that:
[0118] a) The closer the magnets are to the center of the figure, the stronger the magnetic field will be inside the magnetic conditioner. Thus, the desired fields of up to 0.4 - 0.8 T magnetic flux density can be achieved.
[0119] b) The intensity of the field generated by each magnet is not relevant, as long as the conjunction of their fields allows the desired flux to be achieved.
[0121] c) Magnets can have reasonably different field strengths. In these cases, the field that is formed in the space of the modifier container shows a certain field gradient, but which is not an obstacle for the modifier container to function effectively.
[0123] d) Without being mandatory, the container (1) can contain a vibrating or stirring element to facilitate the beating of the oils and for all the molecules to circulate through the areas of prominent magnetic flux.
[0125] It is noteworthy that the decrease in viscosity within the container (1) is very useful for preparing mixtures of different substances, which are not easily mixed, but whose effects present desirable synergies.
[0127] For example, from the Leptospermum Scoparium tree a honey and an essential oil are obtained which are known as honey and manuca oil. Both are beneficial for the skin. Honey is more powerful and the oil easier to apply and absorb. The best mix of them can be achieved with the magnetic conditioning that we have described.
[0129] In fact, the known commercial mixtures of honey and essential oils can be prepared in a more advisable way using the possibilities of magnetic conditioning during their production. This allows very interesting innovations to be presented on the market, such as, for example, health-beneficial honeys qualifying as in a cold pasteurized state, and which until now had not been achieved.
[0131] If this container (1) is used with oil-based cosmetic products, the application procedure begins with placing the cosmetic product in the container for a minimum time of 30 minutes, and applying the product on the skin or hair of the user. or user. As the product is applied from outside the container (1), there is a limitation that it must be applied in the following 3-6 hours.
[0133] Preferably, this application of the cosmetic product and once the oil has been applied to the skin, it can be finished by applying a second magnetic field on the anatomical area of the user / user where a mixture of oils that constitute a composition that is supposed to be efficient is applied. and it is used as an effective recipe in cosmetics or for straight oils wellness preparations. The characteristics of this field depend on the type of magnetic field chosen. If it is a permanent field, the magnetic field flux density will be between 0.125 and 0.250 T. If an alternating magnetic field is applied, a flux density of up to 1.5 pT with a frequency less than 100 Hz is sufficient.
[0135] Application example
[0137] As an example we are going to show how the immersion treatment is carried out in a 0.45 T permanent magnetic field, achieved with six permanent Nd2Fe14B type neodymium magnets (5) with a 1.2 T remaining field. The magnets (5) are They were placed as indicated in figure 1. Samples of six commercial vegetable oils commonly used in the fields of cosmetics and wellness were chosen as oils to be tested .
[0139] The verification that the magnetic flux density in the magnetic conditioner where the samples were treated was correct was made by means of a measurement with a Gaussmeter BGM 201 gaussmeter from Blockhaus Measurements ™. It has a full scale of 4T and a Hall type probe that can be moved around the interior of the magnetic conditioner.
[0140] The modification in the samples of the commercial oils that were tested is evidenced in view of the results of the viscosity measurements, before and after the treatment by immersion in the magnetic field, collected in Table 1. It represents the initial viscosity (in the delivery state), that obtained after 3 hours in the container (1), and at 4 and 48 hours after having extracted the samples from the container.
[0141] The measurements were made by comparing the discharge time of each sample in an Ostwald viscometer with the discharge time measured in the standard oil with our viscometer and taking into account the value of its viscosity and its density provided by its manufacturer.
[0142] The Ostwald viscometer used was SI AnalyticsTM brand, whose discharge capillary has a diameter of 0.5 mm and the amount of sample that fills the measuring ampoule is 3 ml. The hydrometer used to assess the value of the density of the oils in the samples tested was a glass hydrometer for liquids with a measuring scale for liquids with a lower density than water. It is Nahita brand, with a measurement scale of 900/1000 kg / m3 and a measurement sensitivity of 1 mg / cm3.
[0143] As a reference oil, we use a castor oil of pharmacological purity, which was supplied by its manufacturer with information on its viscosity value.
[0144] The density measurement was done only once. The density of the oil was measured and then it was introduced into the viscometer, and the discharge time was then measured.
[0146]
[0148] In view of these results, it seems proven that the effect of the treatment by a permanent magnetic field reduces the viscosity of the commercial vegetable oils tested, but that its effect is only maintained for a few hours.
