  • Publication number: 20220250025
    Abstract: Microcapsule compositions as disclosed comprising a microcapsule dispersed in an aqueous phase. The microcapsule has a microcapsule core and a microcapsule wall encapsulating the microcapsule core. The microcapsule core contains an active material. The microcapsule wall is formed of a polymeric network comprising a first moiety derived from a protein, and a second moiety derived from a multi-functional electrophile. Also disclosed are preparation methods and consumer products containing the microcapsule compositions.

  • Patent number: 9150822
    Abstract: An aqueous fabric conditioner composition comprising (a) from 2 to 9 wt % of a fabric softening active, by weight of the total composition, wherein the fabric softening active is an ester-linked quaternary ammonium compound having fatty acid chains comprising from 20 to 35 wt % of saturated C18 chains and from 20 to 35 wt % of monounsaturated C18 chains, by weight of total fatty acid chains; and (b) from 0.01 to 0.5 wt %, by weight of the total composition, of a floc prevention agent, which is a non-ionic alkoxylated material having an HLB value of from 8 to 18, wherein the aqueous fabric conditioner composition has a viscosity of greater than 50 cps, preferably from 55 to 200 cps as measured on a cup and bob viscometer; the viscosity being continuously measured under shear at 106 s?1 for 60 seconds, at 25° C. and wherein the composition leads to little or no floc formation upon addition to water.
