Abstract: The invention is directed to a particle containing at least a volatile substance comprising a core comprising at least one matrix material and the at least one volatile substance and at least one coating layer, whereby a first coating layer is a non-confluent layer comprising at least a carrier material, whereby optionally the non-confluent layer contains at least one hydrophobic substance, and optionally the particle is surrounded by at least one confluent layer and/or further non-confluent layer(s) as well as to a process for producing the same.

Abstract: A particle containing at least one hydrophobic matrix material and at least one volatile substance, the particle contains 60% to 90% by weight of the at least one matrix material, whereby the at least one matrix material is selected from the group of fats, hydrogenated triglycerides and waxes that are solid or semi-solid at 20° C. and 1 atmosphere, that the particle contains 10% to 40% by weight of the at least one volatile substance, whereby the at least one volatile substance is selected from essential oils and/or plant extracts, that the at least one volatile substance is homogeneously distributed in the at least one matrix material, and that the particle has a sphericity from 0.800 to 0.999, as well as to a process for preparing said particle as well as to a food and/or feed additive containing said particle and optionally at least one further component.
