  • Patent number: 9217080
    Abstract: The present invention concerns microcapsules comprising a capsule core and a capsule wall, the capsule wall being constructed from 30% to 90% by weight of one or more C1-C24-alkyl esters of acrylic and/ or methacrylic acid, acrylic acid, methacrylic acid and/or maleic acid (monomers I), 10% to 70% by weight of a mixture of divinyl and polyvinyl monomers (monomers II), the fraction of polyvinyl monomers being in the range from 2% to 90% by weight based on the monomers II, and also ?0% to 30% by weight of one or more miscellaneous monomers (monomer III), all based on the total weight of the monomers, a process for their production and their use in textiles, bindered building materials and heat transfer fluids.

  • Publication number: 20120177924
    Abstract: The present invention concerns microcapsules comprising a capsule core, a capsule wall and also, disposed on the outer surface of the capsule wall, a polyelectrolyte having an average molecular weight in the range from 500 g/mol to 10 million g/mol, the capsule wall being constructed from 10% to 100% by weight of one or more C1-C24-alkyl esters of acrylic and/or methacrylic acid (monomers I), 0% to 80% by weight of a water-insoluble or sparingly soluble in water bi- or polyfunctional monomer (monomers II), and 0% to 90% by weight of other monomers (monomer Ill) all based on the total weight of the monomers, wherein the microcapsules have an average particle size of 1.5-2.5 ?m and 90% of the particles have a particle size ?4 ?m, a process for their production, their use in textiles, bindered building materials and heat transfer fluids, and also microcapsules as an intermediate product.

  • Patent number: 8163207
    Abstract: The invention described herein relates to a method of preparing microcapsules comprising a capsule core, a polymeric capsule wall and also, disposed on the outer surface of the capsule wall, a polyelectrolyte having an average molecular weight in the range from 500 g/mol to 10 million g/mol, the polymeric capsule wall being formed from specified monomers, where the microcapsules have an average particle size of 1.5-2.5 ?m and 90% of the particles have a particle size ?4 ?m, by microencapsulating a capsule core with a polymeric capsule wall and then contacting the polymeric capsule wall with one or more polyelectrolytes in water or an aqueous medium.
