Abstract: A particle composition containing a continuous phase of 0.5-95% organically soluble cellulosic material selected from the group consisting of ethyl cellulose and hydroxypropyl cellulose dissolved in 5-99.5% organic fragrance chemicals and organic flavor chemicals. The particles are formed from a continuous phase product that results from dissolving the cellulosic material in the flavor/fragrance which is subsequently subjected to techniques to form the desired particle size. Methods of making and using the particles are also disclosed.

Abstract: Apparatus and methods for signaling an event using fragrance are disclosed. A fragrance emitting device is activated to a low battery voltage indicator in an electronic device, serving as a warning to replace the battery, either in place of or complimentary to conventional indicators such as warning lights or audible signals. The fragrance emitting system can be integrated into the electronic device itself or can be part of the battery.

Abstract: A polymeric encapsulated fragrance is disclosed which is suitable for use in personal care and cleaning products. In a preferred embodiment of the invention the fragrance is encapsulated by a first polymer material to form a fragrance encapsulated polymer, the polymer encapsulated shell is then coated with a cationic polymer, preferably a cationic starch and guar.

Abstract: Packaging materials and packages that transfer fragrances to foods and other products via the vapor phase are disclosed. The present invention provides a source of desired fragrance, a suitable environment for vapor transfer, and an appropriate food substrate to which flavor and fragrance is added. Examples of the source of fragrance can be a packaging film containing fragrance, a sachet of absorbed flavor material, a tape or label applied to the inside of a package, and a flavor diffusing granule or an active system for delivering flavor vapor to the environment. Materials that are preferably treated using the present invention include snacks, confections, baked goods, fresh plant materials, cereals and beverages, as well as non-food products. The time required for flavor transfer is dependent primarily on the volatility and concentration of the fragrances, absorptive capacity of the food, and the intensity of the flavor desired.
