Dentre os materiais utilizados como material para embalagem para o segmento HPPC, o vidro possui lugar de grande importância, dados os seus atributos. Entretanto, ainda persistem desafios tecnológicos a serem enfrentados para a otimização do processo produtivo. O projeto ora apresentado visa uma racionalização no processo de desenvolvimento de novos produtos, através de uma abordagem matemática, atualmente não disponível no contexto nacional.

During the past year, the cosmetics market in Brazil has grown strongly, with good perspective for the coming years. This favourable scenario draws the attention of companies in the cosmetic sector and national and international investors in a globalized market. Thus, the cosmetic industry players must be competitive, being able, among other things, to bring innovation and quality products to a consumer increasingly critical and more accustomed to market news. The historical development of products for human welfare highlights the widespread use of derivatives of biodiversity as sources of active components. Brazil hosts a substantial amount of the world’s biodiversity, having the opportunity to use it in a rational way for developing new products with great added value, such as cosmetics.

The products and the organic raw materials are part of a philosophy that attracts more fans including well-informed consumers and high purchasing power. The respect for the preservation of the environment and ecosystems, including the communities that develop their activity there, are values ​​rooted in developed countries. However, this trend, despite its growing importance, does not yet have an international standard or a framework developed in the Brazilian regulatory environment. We will reflect on the key market trends and drivers of progress in order to position Brazil on the international scene, with its potentialities and aspects to be developed.

In the cosmetic market dynamism of innovation means that many technologies are treated as waves, but in some cases the technology becomes permanent. For some people, nanotechnology is another wave, while for others it is more than a promise of this century. It’s a dream that can become reality.

A structured  management system of innovation depends on four components: People – Environment – Process – Technology. Without People, it is not produced innovation for results in a sustainable way.

We know that the DNA of our cells remained virtually unchanged from birth until the present. DNA is a stable molecule. This stability not only helps maintain the phenotypic characteristics throughout the life of an individual, but also human ancestry. Evolution is part of a slow transformation of the genome. However, we know that many genes are better preserved throughout evolution. Likewise proteins such as HSP (heat shock proteins), aquaporins, histones, cadherins are kept unchanged for hundreds of millions of years. Some genes are common among animals and plants. Aging can be a deficiency in our body to maintain homeostasis. Many alternative routes are possible to maintain this system. Certainly these alternative routes are less sophisticated but more robust and less prone to deteriorate over the years. Our purpose is to show some specific examples of these alternate routes obtained from vegetable and animal (insects, jellyfish, etc..) and of potential interest in cosmetology by phylogenetic transcompatibility.

The theme will be a presentation about innovation on make-up ingredients using synthetic and functional pigments, and nano-physical sunfilters with approach on safety aspects.

Several regulatory updates and discussion for the consumer industries are in evidence at this time. Brazil has shown a clear awareness of the current regulatory complexity in the world and, additionally, has guided the Mercosur region with the trends of regulations for different sectors of industry, such as the Cosmetics Industry. What is the impact on the development of fragrances in perfumery with the increasing regulatory complexity?

2. It is known that the current lifestyle exposes the hair to a routine that includes the constant use of chemical treatments associated with other everyday damage, such as dryers, plates, and exposure to environmental elements such as UV radiation, the humidity and wind. In this presentation we will focus on the hair fiber damage suffered as a result of various chemical attack, the main requirements of this type of hair and how to treat it, according to the latest market trends and innovation in cosmetic ingredients.

Among the materials used as packaging material for cosmetic, toiletry and fragrance industry, the glass has a place of great importance due to their attributes. However, there are still technology challenges to be faced in order to optimize the production process. The project’s goal is to streamline the process of developing new products through a mathematical approach, not available in the current national context.

The discussions about definition, characterization and evaluation of nanomaterials are the subject of intense technical, economic and political meetings. It is necessary to have an installed base metrology in order to allow the industry to evolve with competitiveness and excellence in the development of nanotechnology applied to cosmetics.

The protocols in vitro using human skin samples have been developed and adopted by the OECD guidelines 428. Regulators in Europe only allow the marketing of a new cosmetic product or ingredient that are tested in vitro using methods validated by ECVAM and accepted by ESAC, so the need to use a validated three-dimensional model to evaluate skin irritation of cosmetic ingredients. However, a 3D model has advantages not only to carry out safety tests (corrosion, dermal irritation, skin sensitization, eye irritation), but also enables the performance of numerous tests to evaluate effectiveness of ingredients and cosmetics.

The work deals with a novel strategy for bioprospection using a combination of modern analytical tools such as high resolution mass spectrometry, NMR and microcalorimetry in association with Physical-Chemical and Evolutionary concepts.

The presentation will show the global marketing scenario in photoprotection and how multifunctional products have shown a strong presence. The category trend will question if these products are those in which the main activity is the skin treatment and sun protection is secondary; or the opposite. It will be also talked about the main type of active ingredients used in this category and the future technical trends.

Photoprotection is an issue that has constantly been changing. This evolution is the result of scientific progress around the theme, which promotes an increased awareness by consumers and health authorities and, consequently, the need for adjustments in the regulatory sphere. The presentation will address technical and regulatory aspects on the topic in the international arena.

The lecture will present the trends of materials for Sunscreen / Photo Protection with applied Nanotechnology. The presentation explains the key technologies of JGC Catalysts and Chemicals Ltd., a leading company of nanotechnology and particle design technologies of Japan. Innovative technologies have been widely applied to many industries such as electronics, optics and personal care, including sun protection. This is the first introduction at Brazilian / South American market.

The skin is a complex integrated system between the different layers (stratum corneum, epidermis, dermis, hypodermis) containing a nerve network that allows communication between them and the central nervous system. This neural network also suffers from internal and external factors, a neuro-degeneration, causing irreversible loss of nerve connections that cause premature skin aging. The development and application of products with antioxidant activity and neurotrophic effect preserves the ability of natural response of the skin and maintains its quality and sensory.
