Abstract: A dispersion stabiliser precursor composition including one or more of cucurbituril, a variant or a derivative thereof, and one or more oil-in-water macromolecular amphiphilic emulsifier, wherein the composition is in the form of a free flowing powder; and an oil-in-water emulsion composition including one or more of cucurbituril, a variant or a derivative thereof, and one or more oil-in-water macromolecular amphiphilic emulsifier.

Abstract: A deodorizing composition includes cucurbituril and one or more first metal salts, the first metal salt including at least one metal cation with a valency of at least two and at least one anion, wherein the metal cation is selected from the group made of aluminium, zirconium, silver, titanium, iron, copper, zinc, and magnesium cations.

Abstract: The use of compositions including two or more cucurbiturils in counteracting malodour in a moist environment. The two or more cucurbiturils are selected from CB[5], CB [6], CB [7] and CB[8]. Also provided is a method for counteracting malodour in a moist environment, including application of a composition including a mixture of two or more cucurbiturils selected from CB[5], CB[6], CB[7] and CB[8].

Abstract: A method for reducing malodour includes the step of providing a solid composition including one or more cucurbiturils and derivatives and/or analogues thereof suspended in and/or bound by a thermoplastic and/or a thermosetting polymer medium, wherein the source of the malodour is external.

Abstract: A dispersion stabiliser precursor composition including one or more of cucurbituril, a variant or a derivative thereof, and one or more oil-in-water macromolecular amphiphilic emulsifier, wherein the composition is in the form of a free flowing powder; and an oil-in-water emulsion composition including one or more of cucurbituril, a variant or a derivative thereof, and one or more oil-in-water macromolecular amphiphilic emulsifier.

Abstract: Stable suspension compositions including cucurbiturils. More particularly, the stable suspension compositions including cucurbituril particles suspended in a medium. Also, the preparation of the suspension composition and a method of counteracting malodour including application of the suspension composition to a source of malodour.

Abstract: Use of cucurbituril, a derivative thereof, or a mixture thereof for reducing pod shattering in pod-bearing crops and a pod sealant composition.

Abstract: A pro-fragrance composition includes a cucurbituril in complex with a fragrance molecule and use of the compositions in counteracting malodour. The cucurbituril is present as a mixture, wherein the mixture includes at least two different cucurbiturils selected from CB[5], CB[6], CB[7] and CB[8]. The complexed fragrance molecule is released when the composition is exposed to a stimulus. Also provides methods for the preparation of pro-fragrance complexes of cucurbiturils and fragrance molecules.

Abstract: This invention relates to a process of manufacturing cucurbituril and/or one or more derivatives thereof with low formaldehyde content and to the use of said cucurbituril and/or one or more derivatives thereof, in particular in consumer and industrial products, and in industrial processes.
