Abstract: In accordance with a first aspect, the invention relates to microcapsules for use in a high demand area selected from detergents and cleaners, cosmetic products, adhesive systems, paints and dispersions, coating materials comprising a core material and a shell, wherein the shell consists of at least a first and a second layer whose chemical compositions differ, and wherein the shell has a biodegradability measured according to OECD 301 F of at least 40%. The invention further relates to a product comprising microcapsules, wherein the product is selected from the group consisting of an adhesive system; a cosmetic product; a pharmaceutical product; a coating material, in particular a coated paper; a heat storage coating, a self-healing coating or a corrosion coating; and a coating of functional packaging materials.

Abstract: Washing and cleaning agents may include microcapsules comprising a core material where the core material may include at least one fragrance and a shell. The shell may consist of at least one first layer and one second layer with different chemical compositions. The shell may have a biodegradability, measured in accordance with OECD 301 F, of at least 40%. Such agents may be used for conditioning textiles or for cleaning textiles and/or hard surfaces.

Abstract: A microcapsule system having an outer microcapsule with an outer capsule shell is disclosed. The outer microcapsule comprises at least one inner microcapsule with an inner capsule shell and a first fragrance composition. The inner microcapsule comprises a second fragrance composition that differs from the first fragrance composition. Methods for the production of such micr, products that contain said microcapsules, methods for producing polysensory olfactory impressions and to the corresponding use of the microcapsule system.
