  • Publication number: 20150264921
    Abstract: A process for the preparation of essential oil microcapsules including dissolving a di- or polyisocyanate into an essential oil, emulsifying the resulting mixture in an aqueous solution containing a di- or polyamine, and or a di or polyhydroxy compound to effect encapsulation of the essential oil through interfacial polymerization, whereby there is formed a polyurea and/or polyurethane film around the essential oil droplets which film enhances the stability of the essential oil, reduces its evaporation rate and controls its release rate when applied to a substrate.

  • Publication number: 20050064001
    Abstract: Composition for the treatment of plants, that is a structural combination of agro-materials and adjuvant formulations. A specific composition is a particulate material in which the agro-material particle constitutes the nucleus of each composition particle and adjuvant formulations constitute a coating of the composition particle. The adjuvant formulations comprise a plurality of components, which constitute substantially superimposed coating layers in each particle of the composition and preferably comprise a combination of lipophilic and hydrophilic cuticle surface active agents, wetting agents, thickening agents and fatty self-emulsified components. Special compositions are those in which different agro-materials are used. The agromaterials are chosen from fertilizers, trace elements, plant growth regulators, biostimulants, pesticides, herbicides and insecticides.

  • Publication number: 20020098801
    Abstract: A method and system for delayed random access is provided. In order to attempt to capture a channel, each VSAT randomly chooses when to load and where to transmit. Each of the VSAT schedules the transmission of data when the data that needs to be sent, utilizes more than a preset percentage of the channel and/or when a predetermined delay has elapsed. When multiple sources transmit data through a single VSAT, the system may withhold transmission until it aggregates enough data to efficiently utilize the channel. Alternatively, when there is a time out, the VSAT transmits the data regardless of the utilization of the channel. Blocking of a channel by a VSAT can be prevented so that the channel can be used by another VSAT in a more efficient manner.

  • Patent number: 4851227
    Abstract: The invention provides an insecticidal composition comprising Diazinon ensulated in microcapsules, the microcapsules having an encapsulating wall formed essentially from the reaction product of toluene diisocyanate and a polyfunctional amine, and further provides a process for encapsulating Diazinon in a microcapsular formulation comprising providing an aqueous phase containing a non-basic emulsifier, providing an organic phase containing toluene diisocyanate and Diazinon, combining the aqueous and organic phase to form an oil in water emulsion, and adding an aqueous solution of a polyfunctional amine with agitation to the emulsion, whereby the amine reacts with the toluene diisocyanate to form microcapsular envelopes about the Diazinon material.
