  • Patent number: 7589144
    Abstract: The invention concerns granules obtainable by drying an inverse emulsion, dispersed in an external aqueous phase: a) the inverse emulsion comprising an internal aqueous phase, including a hydrophilic active material, dispersed in an internal organic phase, said inverse emulsion including at least a non-ionic surfactant and/or at least an amphiphilic block polymer, and/or at least a cationic surfactant; b) the external aqueous phase including: at least a polyalkylated non-ionic surfactant and/or at least a polalkylated amphiphilic non-ionic polymer; at least a water soluble or water dispersible polymer in solid form in the presence of a water content of not more than 10 wt. % relative to the weight of said polymer and whereof the glass transition temperature is higher than 25° C., preferably higher than 50° C. The granules, once dispersed, enable to obtain a multiple emulsion.

  • Publication number: 20060160937
    Abstract: A solid composition containing at least one surfactant with a low melting point and at least one polymer obtained from the following: (i) an unsaturated sulphonic or carboxylic acid and/or unsaturated carboxylic polyoxyalkylenated ester and an optionally unsaturated monomer, optionally comprising the functions of an ester, an amide or an aromatic nucleus; (ii) an unsaturated sulphonic or carboxylic acid, whereby the polymer comprises hydrophobic grafts; (iii) a monomer which is unsaturated and includes hydroxyl groups or hydroxyl precursors, whereby the polymer includes hydrophobic grafts; (iv) polypeptides comprising hydrophobic grafts; (v) polysaccharides which are highly depolymerized and comprise hydrophobic grafts. A method for the production of the composition involves drying an aqueous solution containing the surfactant and the polymer. The composition is useful as a constitutive element of phytosanitary formulations.

  • Publication number: 20040213854
    Abstract: The invention concerns granules obtainable by drying an emulsion comprising at least an active substance; optionally a surfactant selected among non-ionic polyalkoxylated surfactants, or among anionic surfactants; at least a water-soluble or water-dispersible compound, selected among: (i) polymers obtained by polymerisation of at least an ethylenically unsaturated acid monomer and at least an ethylenically unsaturated hydrocarbon monomer; (ii) natural or synthetic polypeptides, optionally comprising at least a hydrophobic graft; (iii) highly depolymerized polysaccharides optionally comprising at least a hydrocarbon hydrophobic graft; at least a control agent selected among: complexing agents including at least one element of columns IIA, IVA, VA, VIII, IB, IIIB; cationic polymers. The inventive granules provide the advantage of enabling, once they are applied, gradual controlled or elicited release.
