Abstract: Oral care compositions comprising a capsules comprising flavoring and/or one or more active ingredients, and/or flavours, said capsules distributed in an orally acceptable vehicle or carrier.

Abstract: The disclosed invention refers to a process for obtaining fatty acid alkyl esters, rosin acids and sterols from crude tall oil (CTO), which is characterized by the following steps: (a) reacting the free fatty acids present in the CTO with lower alcohols; (b) esterifying the sterols in the CTO with boric acid or transesterifying the sterols with a catalyst; (c) separating the fatty acid lower alkyl esters and rosin acids from the remaining sterol borate esters or sterol esters of fatty acids to produce a stream of sterol esters; (d) separating the fatty acid alkyl esters from the rosin acids to produce a first stream of fatty acid alky esters and a second stream of rosin acids; and (e) converting the sterol esters into the free sterols to produce a third stream of free sterols.

Abstract: The invention relates to plasticizer compositions for polyvinyl chloride resins. A plasticized polyvinyl chloride resin contains (a) 100 parts by weight of at least one polyvinyl chloride resin and (b) 0.1 to 200 parts by weight of a plasticizer compounded with the polyvinyl chloride resin, wherein the plasticizer comprises (i) at least one isobutanol ester of a fatty acid with 8 to 24 carbon atoms, wherein, the fatty acid can be saturated or olefinically unsaturated, linear or branched and contain at least one epoxy group per molecule and (ii) at least one methyl ester of a fatty acid with 16 to 18 carbon atoms, wherein, the fatty acid can be saturated or olefinically unsaturated, linear or branched.
