The invention provides a reversibly protected colorant or a composition thereof which when mixed with a disinfectant solution imparts color to the disinfectant solution allowing for temporary visualization of a disinfectant, and methods for use in the disinfection, decontamination, and/or cleaning of surfaces, objects. The reversibly protected colorant or composition thereof is added to a disinfectant solution or disinfectant article (e.g., disinfectant wipe, microfiber, rag, towel, cloth, spun-woven wipes, nonwoven wipes, etc.), wherein the reversibly protected colorant or a composition thereof imparts color to the disinfectant solution resulting in a colored disinfectant solution until such protection is removed, thereby releasing the colorant and exposing the colorant to an agent and/or oxidizing conditions that cause the colorant to permanently lose its color. The invention also provides methods of using the colored disinfectant solutions for visually indicating surface disinfection and the method of visually indicating surface disinfection.

The present invention teaches a composition and process for irreversibly agglomerated charge stable core shell microcapsules, each microcapsule containing a benefit agent core material, which may be the same or different, the polymeric all or walls comprising one or more (meth)acrylate polymers, or optionally combinations with other polymers, along with a polyvalent cation. The capsules of the invention adhere better to surfaces, are more stable and are useful for delivery of benefit agents.

The present invention relates to a new process for the preparation of core-shell microcapsules. Microcapsules are also an object of the invention. Consumer products comprising said microcapsules, in particular perfumed consumer products or flavoured consumer products are also part of the invention.

Disclosed is a composite for forming a coacervate interfacial film. The composite for forming the coacervate interfacial film contains a cationic hectorite nanoplate-shaped particle structure containing a hectorite nanoplate-shaped particle and a cationic surfactant coupled to a surface of the hectorite nanoplate-shaped particle, and an anionic cellulose nanofibril containing an anionic functional group in at least a portion thereof, in which the composite may form the coacervate interfacial film at an interface of an oil phase and a water phase through electrostatic interaction between the cationic surfactant and the anionic functional group.
