The compounds are useful for example as a precursor for the prolonged delivery or release of fragrant compounds such as fragrant alcohols, fragrant aldehydes or fragrant formates.

A freshening composition is provided. The freshening composition includes about 0.02 wt. % to about 1.0 wt. %, based on the weight of the composition, of a sulfur-containing pro-perfume. The freshening composition further includes about 0.2 wt. % to about 1.4 wt. %, based on the weight of the composition, of a perfume mixture, the perfume mixture comprising at least one perfume material selected from the group consisting of: 3-(1,3-Benzodioxol-5-yl)-2-methylpropanal, canthoxal, vanillin, ethyl vanillin, citral, ligustral, cinnamic aldehydes, and combinations thereof. The freshening composition also includes a carrier.

A process for extraction of crude oil from distillers dried grain solubles and/or distillers dried grains and producing corn distillers meal that may be used as a livestock supplement is disclosed. For example, the corn distillers meal may be used as a crude protein supplement for use in a livestock feed diet or a poultry feed diet. The solvent extracted crude oil may be suitable for oleochemical processing for personal care and home care products, biodiesel production, and/or renewable diesel production from hydro-treating the extracted oil to make green diesel fuel.

A freshening composition is provided. The freshening composition includes about 0.02 wt. % to about 1.0 wt. %, based on the weight of the composition, of a sulfur-containing pro-perfume. The freshening composition further includes about 0.2 wt. % to about 1.4 wt. %, based on the weight of the composition, of a perfume mixture, the perfume mixture comprising at least one perfume material selected from the group consisting of: 3-(1,3-Benzodioxol-5-yl)-2-methylpropanal, canthoxal, vanillin, ethyl vanillin, citral, ligustral, cinnamic aldehydes, and combinations thereof. The freshening composition also includes a carrier.

The present invention discloses a thermosensitive nanocapsule and a preparing method thereof. The thermosensitive nanocapsule includes core materials and wall materials. The preparing method includes: first, making water phase and oil phase respectively, forming microemulsion by means of high speed shearing after mixing, and forming nanoemulsion via ultrasonic treatment or high pressure homogenization; then adding nitrogen to the emulsion and carrying out the reaction under a temperature of 40-80 C. for 3-4 hrs in the nitrogen atmosphere; finally obtaining the thermosensitive nanocapsule with an embedding rate of 90-94%, a particle size of less than 150 nm and a dimension polydispersity index of 0.09-0.17. In present invention, the monomer that forms the wall material of the nanocapsules is made from common biological materials, and has a good biocompatibility. The wall material has a temperature sensitivity, and can control the delayed release of core material by adjusting temperature.

A method for releasing one or more active volatile aldehydes or ketones from a delivery system based on photosensitive acetal or ketal compounds capable of liberating upon exposure to light an active volatile carbonyl compound in a controlled manner from a surface into the surrounding environment. The delivery system can be used to release active substances such as flavors, fragrances, malodor counteractants, insect attractants or insect repellents. The invention also relates to the use of such acetal or ketal compounds in perfumery, as well as in perfuming compositions or perfumed consumer articles.

The present invention relates to a novel method of human scent extraction from a person's body or used articles and storing it in a preserved manner which can be used in various forms. The proposed method is mainly directed toward pets training, development of comfort and elimination of anxiety and can also trigger connections in the dog or cats brain.

Freshening composition having at least 70% by weight of the freshening composition of water, a perfume, wherein the perfume includes at least 60% by weight of the perfume, Perfume Raw Materials (PRMs) having C log P greater than 1; and at least 0.0015% by weight of the freshening composition of an alkoxylated aromatic.

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.
