A microcapsule composition containing microcapsules coated with a deposition protein, e.g., a protein-silanol copolymer, a protein-silane copolymer, a protein-siloxane copolymer, or a cationically modified protein, is provided as is a method for making the microcapsule composition and using the microcapsule composition in consumer products, in particular rinse-off consumer product.

A composition comprises a source of oxygen and a polyurethane for use in a treatment operation in cleaning a fabric material.

The present invention relates to novel associative thickeners pertaining to the HEUR category (Hydrophobically-modified Ethoxylated URethane), to intermediate aqueous formulations containing such thickeners, and to the final compositions, for example paint, lacquer, varnish or paper coating slip compositions.

A detergent or cleaning agent for textiles, containing at least one surfactant and at least one polyurethane as an anti-crease agent, and to the use of polyurethanes as an anti-crease agent for textiles.

A microcapsule containing a benefit agent inside a polyurea shell characterised in that polyurea has a nonionic polysaccharide deposition polymer covalently bonded to it. Also a process for making the microcapsule and compositions incorporating the microcapsule.

Cleaning compositions that include an extracellular-polymer-degrading enzyme selected from the group consisting of endo-beta-1,6-galactanase enzymes, mannanase enzymes and mixtures thereof, a peroxygen source; and a bleach catalyst and methods of making and using such cleaning compositions to provide stain and soil removal and/or malodour reduction.

A microcapsule composition containing microcapsules coated with a deposition protein, e.g., a protein-silanol copolymer, a protein-silane copolymer, a protein-siloxane copolymer, or a cationically modified protein, is provided as is a method for making the microcapsule composition and using the microcapsule composition in consumer products, in particular rinse-off consumer product.

More particularly, the present invention relates to a process for producing antimicrobial core-shell microcapsules with immobilized silver particles into and onto the shell. The latter can be used in home or personal care products for delivering a perfuming and malodor-countering effect. The microcapsules obtainable by such a process and the consumer products comprising these microcapsules are also objects of the invention.

The present invention relates to organic-inorganic hybrid core-shell microcapsules encapsulating an active ingredient such as a perfume and having a shell made from the hydrolysis and condensation reaction of particular polyalkoxysilane macro-monomeric compositions.

A hard surface cleaning composition which provides a shine to hard surfaces and which is water resistant includes 0.001-50 wt. % of at least one detersive surfactant, at least 10 wt. % of a diluent, the diluent including water, and 0.01-40 wt. % of particles comprising at least one of an anionic polyurethane polymer and an anionic polyurethane hybrid polymer, formed as an aqueous dispersion, the particles having an average particle size of less than 170 nm.
