Silica microcapsules, each of which includes a shell, and a core containing one or more organic compounds inside the shell, a softener composition containing the silica microcapsules, and a method of producing the silica microcapsules is described. In the silica microcapsules, the shell contains silica as a constituent component, and the organic compound contains a primary alcohol.

The present invention is directed to a method for producing advantageous microcapsules. Moreover, the present invention provides microcapsules obtained/obtainable by the method according to the invention.

An oxygen-based cleaning composition, comprises a cleaning formulation in powder form, wherein the cleaning formulation includes a hydrogen peroxide addition compound layer comprising a hydrogen peroxide addition compound powder for producing hydrogen peroxide, a surfactant layer formed by coating an outer surface of the hydrogen peroxide addition compound layer with a liquid surfactant, and a saponin layer formed by coating an outer surface of the surfactant layer with a saponin powder.

Benefit agent containing delivery particles that can be supplied as slurries, compositions comprising such particles, and processes for making and using such particles and compositions.

The present invention relates to a method of preparing microcapsules, and the microcapsules prepared according to the preparation method of the present invention can exhibit high versatility, natural degradability and long-term stability, and the active substance in the capsule can be stably loaded in the capsule even in the presence of a surfactant.

A core-shell microcapsule comprising a core containing a functional ingredient and a shell surrounding or at least partially surrounding said core, the shell comprising a thermosetting resin formed by the reaction of shell-forming monomers comprising a polyamine and a material comprising a plurality of olefinic double bonds capable of reacting with the polyamine.

In accordance with a first aspect, the invention relates to microcapsules for use in a high demand area selected from detergents and cleaners, cosmetic products, adhesive systems, paints and dispersions, coating materials comprising a core material and a shell, wherein the shell consists of at least a first and a second layer whose chemical compositions differ, and wherein the shell has a biodegradability measured according to OECD 301 F of at least 40%. The invention further relates to a product comprising microcapsules, wherein the product is selected from the group consisting of an adhesive system; a cosmetic product; a pharmaceutical product; a coating material, in particular a coated paper; a heat storage coating, a self-healing coating or a corrosion coating; and a coating of functional packaging materials.

The present specification discloses compositions comprising one or more encapsulates comprising one or more agents and methods and uses for the disclosed agents. A composition disclosed herein can be incorporated into a body wash, an after shower body lotion, a shampoo, a conditioner, a soap, a gel, a hand sanitizer, a cream, a spray, a mouse, a lotion, an ointment, a make-up product, a lip balm, a hair spray product, an arachnid/insect repellent or a medicinal product.

The present invention relates to a process for the production of multilayer microcapsules, in particular multilayer odiferous substance capsules or fragrance compound capsules, which have improved stability and odiferous substance release or fragrance compound release compared to prior art capsules. In addition, the present invention relates to multilayer microcapsules comprising at least one hydrophobic odiferous substance or fragrance compound obtainable by the process of the invention. In another aspect, the invention described herein relates to multilayer microcapsules comprising a core comprising at least one hydrophobic odiferous substance or fragrance compound, and a capsule shell. In addition, the present invention relates to the use of the multilayer microcapsules and suspensions of the multilayer microcapsules as an ingredient in detergents, fabric softeners, cleaning products, scent boosters in liquid or solid form, cosmetics, personal care products, agricultural products or pharmaceutical products.
