A composition comprising a plurality of particles, wherein said particles comprise: 40 to 95 w.t. % polyethylene glycol, wherein the polyethylene glycol has a weight average molecular weight from 4000 to 12000; 0.1 to 50 w.t. % anhydrous saccharide comprising one to ten monosaccharide units; and 0.1 to 20 w.t. % perfume materials.

A method of providing a modifier on the surface of an active-containing core-shell aminoplast microcapsule, including the covalent attachment of the modifier to the capsule shell surface by means of a coupling compound capable of covalent bonding to both shell and modifier by means of epoxy groups on the coupling compound. The method is especially useful for enhancing the substantiveness to fabrics of fragrance microcapsules added to laundry products.

The present invention primarily relates to a method for producing a powder containing a plurality of capsules incorporated into crystals, wherein these capsules contain one or more ingredients. Further, the present invention relates to the respective powder, as well as product containing this powder, the use of the powder as well as methods for producing respective products and methods for perfuming substrates.

Core-shell microcapsules comprising a hydrophobic core surrounded by a shell comprising a thermosetting resin comprising moieties derived from polyisocyanates, substantially unprotonated chitosan and another amine different from chitosan, characterized in that the substantially unprotonated chitosan is delivered in the solid, powder form to the locus of the encapsulation reaction. The core-shell microcapsules are provided in the form of a slurry comprising 10 to 50 wt % of microcapsules, based on the total weight of the slurry, and the shell of the microcapsules comprises from 0.1 to 20 wt % of moieties derived from chitosan, based on the total weight of the shell.

A microcapsule system having an outer microcapsule with an outer capsule shell is disclosed. The outer microcapsule comprises at least one inner microcapsule with an inner capsule shell and a first fragrance composition. The inner microcapsule comprises a second fragrance composition that differs from the first fragrance composition. Methods for the production of such micr, products that contain said microcapsules, methods for producing polysensory olfactory impressions and to the corresponding use of the microcapsule system.

A detergent additive comprising an active, the active comprising one or both of tetraacetylethylenediamine or triacetylethylenediamine; and a copolymer having maleic anhydride-based repeat units and either or both of olefinic or styrenic-based repeat units; and wherein at least a portion of the maleic anhydride-based repeat units are neutralized.

Microcapsule compositions as disclosed comprising a microcapsule dispersed in an aqueous phase. The microcapsule has a microcapsule core and a microcapsule wall encapsulating the microcapsule core. The microcapsule core contains an active material. The microcapsule wall is formed of a polymeric network comprising a first moiety derived from a protein, and a second moiety derived from a multi-functional electrophile. Also disclosed are preparation methods and consumer products containing the microcapsule compositions.

An embodiment provides a method for cleaning a surface, including: encapsulating a cleaning composition in a polymer material to form a compound, wherein the polymer material surrounds the cleaning composition; placing the compound in a location adjacent to the surface, wherein the location adjacent to the surface is a volume separated from an outer volume; dissolving the polymer material at a pH above a target value above the polymer material pH dissolution point, wherein the dissolving releases the cleaning composition; and cleaning the surface using the released cleaning composition. Other aspects are described and claimed.
