  • Patent number: 9422505
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a carrier system for fragrances, to the production thereof and to the use of the carrier system in laundry and cosmetic formulations. Accordingly, the present invention is directed to a microcapsule comprising a core of hydrophobic material composed of at least one fragrance or perfume and a microcapsule shell obtainable by the suspension polymerization of the following monomers: (a) one or more C1-C24-alkyl ester(s) of (meth)acrylic acid (monomer A), (b) one or more bi- or polyfunctional monomers (monomer B) and (c) optionally, one or more other ethylenically unsaturated monomers (monomer C), wherein the shear rate for the preparation of the emulsion lies in the range of from 150 to 500 rpm and the stirring time for the preparation of the emulsion lies in the range of from 15 min to 180 min.

  • Publication number: 20160145459
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for producing a microcapsule dispersion comprising microcapsules comprising a hydrophilic capsule core and a capsule wall polymer, wherein a water-in-oil emulsion comprising a hydrophobic diluent as continuous phase, and the hydrophilic capsule core material, a monomer composition and an amphiphilic polymer is produced and then the monomers are free-radically polymerized, where the monomer composition comprises 30 to 100% by weight of one or more monomers selected from C1-C24-alkyl esters of acrylic acid and/or methacrylic acid (monomers I), 0 to 70% by weight of one or more monomers selected from acrylic acid, methacrylic acid, maleic acid, acrylic acid esters and/or methacrylic acid esters which carry hydroxy and/or carboxy groups (monomers II), 0 to 50% by weight of one or more monomers which has two or more ethylenically unsaturated radicals, (monomers III) and 0 to 30% by weight of one or more other monomers (monomers IV) in each case based on the total weight o

  • Publication number: 20150361227
    Abstract: The present invention relates to particulate microcapsule compositions comprising microcapsules and an emulsion polymer, obtainable via spray drying of an aqueous microcapsule dispersion, where the microcapsules comprise a capsule core and a polymer as capsule wall and the polymer is composed of from 30 to 90% by wt. of one or more monomers (monomers I) from the group consisting of C1-C24-alkyl esters of acrylic and/or methacrylic acid, acrylic acid, methacrylic acid, and maleic acid, from 10 to 70% by wt. of one or more ethylenically unsaturated monomers having two, three, four, or more ethylenically unsaturated moieties (monomers II), and from 0 to 40% by wt. of one or more other monomers (monomers III), based in each case on the total weight of the monomers, with use of an aqueous dispersion of one or more emulsion polymers which comprises in copolymerized form from 50 to 99.9% by wt.

  • Publication number: 20130157863
    Abstract: The present invention relates to microcapsule dispersions comprising microcapsules comprising a hydrophilic capsule core and a capsule wall polymer which is obtainable by polymerization of a monomer composition comprising 25 to 95% by weight of one or more C1-C24-alkyl and/or glycidyl esters of acrylic acid and/or methacrylic acid 5 to 75% by weight of one or more hydrophilic monomers selected from acrylic acid esters and/or methacrylic acid esters which carry hydroxy and/or carboxy groups, and allylgluconamide 0 to 40% by weight of one or more compounds having two or more ethylenically unsaturated radicals, where the microcapsules are dispersed in a hydrophobic diluents, to the microcapsules, and to a method for producing them and to their use for the delayed release of active ingredients for construction, cosmetics or crop protection applications.
