Abstract: The color protection properties of detergents when used to wash colored textiles is to be improved. This is substantially achieved in that polymers are used which are molecularly imprinted using dyes.

Abstract: Fragrances having a fresh character are usually very volatile and therefore not very economical in typical applications such as washing or cleaning processes for example. For that reason they have to be used in relatively large amounts in order to bring about appropriate effects. The present invention describes photolabile pro-fragrances that allow for a greatly improved persistence of the fragrance impression, in particular one having a fresh character, in typical applications. A more economical use of the fragrances in question can be ensured in this way.

Abstract: The deliberate release of odorants or aroma substances is desirable in many fields of application, and in particular in the field of washing and cleaning agents. Said deliberate release is achieved by using an odorant composition that comprises an odorant precursor, which is an allyl ether of the formula (I), R1R2C?CR3—CR4R5—O—CHR6R7, in which the residues R1, R2, R3, R4, R5, R6 and R7 mutually independently denote H or a hydrocarbon residue that can be acyclic or cyclic, substituted or unsubstituted, branched or unbranched, as well as saturated or unsaturated. Thus, in particular odorants in the form of an alkene having an allylic hydrogen atom, such as ?-pinene, can be released in a deliberate manner.

Abstract: Many fragrances that provide a scent of freshness tend to be highly volatile and are therefore not very economical when used in typical applications such as washing or cleaning processes, so they have to be used in relatively large quantities to be able to produce adequate effects. The disclosed photolabile pro-fragrances provide a much longer-lasting sense of fragrance, in particular with a scent of freshness, when used in typical applications, thus allowing said fragrances to be used efficiently.

Abstract: The invention relates to combinations of 1-aza-3,7-dioxabicyclo[3.3.0]octane compounds with silicic acid esters, methods for producing same, the use of same as pro-fragrances, as well as washing and cleaning agents, fabric softeners and cosmetics that contain same. The invention also relates to a method for prolonging the perception of fragrance in such agents.

Abstract: The invention relates to a composition of (a) a selected amino alcohol compound of general formula (I), (b) a scent aldehyde and/or scent ketone, and (c) a selected silicic acid ester, to the use of same as a pro-scent, as well as to washing and cleaning agents, fabric softeners and cosmetics which contain these. The invention also relates to a method for prolonging the perception of scent in such agents, and to a method for removing malodors by applying said composition.

Abstract: Mold-resistant construction materials distinguished by the presence therein of an azole alone or in combination with a sporulation inhibitor and/or with a substance which is antiadhesive with respect to microorganisms.

The present invention describes photolabile pro-fragrances of formula (I) that allow for a greatly improved persistence of the fragrance impression, in particular one having a fresh character, in typical applications. Said pro-fragrances attach very readily to target substrates, such as textiles for example. A more economical use of the fragrances in question can be ensured in this way.

Abstract: Silicic acid esters to which fragrances are bound, preferably as 1-aza-3,7-dioxabicyclo[3,3,0]octane compounds or as monocyclic oxazolidines and that are suitable for adding fragrance to detergents and cleaning agents because they release the bound fragrances in hydrolysis.

Abstract: Scents having a fresh odor are usually very volatile, and therefore have a low yield in typical applications such as washing or cleaning processes. They must therefore be used in relatively large quantities so that commensurate effects can be achieved. The invention describes specific ketones as photolabile scent storage substances which enable greatly improved persistence of the scent impression, in particular with a fresh odor, in typical applications. Corresponding washing or cleaning agents and air freshening agents, and a method for scenting surfaces, are also described.

Abstract: Photolabile scent storage substance that are capable of photoinduced release of cyclic compounds have at least one cyclic double bond. These scent storage substances are special ketones, and enable greatly improved stability of the scent impression, in particular with a fresh character, in typical applications, for example in textile laundering, room scenting, and in the cosmetic sector. More economical utilization of the stored scents can thereby be ensured. Also described are corresponding washing or cleaning agents, scenting methods, and methods for manufacturing the special ketones.

Abstract: Non-ionic surfactants are used to reduce the adhesion of microorganisms to surfaces of materials by coating such surfaces with the surfactants or incorporating the surfactants into the materials.

Abstract: A perfume-containing PIT emulsion which is suited to contribute to an excellent and long-lasting scenting of textiles during the use of a dryer. The PIT emulsion is simple for the user to handle and allows the user to better control the user's individual scent experience during the handling of textiles. The PIT emulsions can also be used for aroma therapy purposes and for the scenting of rooms. In addition, a kit made of detergents and the perfume-containing PIT emulsion, which enables the user to obtain optimal laundry scenting results.

Abstract: Method of inhibiting discoloration in agents by incorporating iodide salt(s), preferably calcium, potassium and/or sodium iodides into the formulation of those agents. The method is particularly suited for agents comprising vanillin and/or vanillin derivatives, wherein vanillin and/or vanillin derivatives are components of a fragrance mixture and the agents are washing and cleaning agents or cosmetics agents.
