What is microencapsulated flavor?


Microcapsule essence is a kind of essence product formed when liquid essence is wrapped in microcapsule wall material to isolate essence core material from the outside world. During washing, the microcapsule essence in the detergent will be deposited on the fabric, skin or hair, and after drying, the microcapsule essence will be slowly released by slight touch or friction, so as to achieve the effect of lasting fragrance.





Twenty years ago Firmenich introduced the first fragrance technology for fabric care - microencapsulated fragrances, redefining the long-term freshness of washing products for the daily chemical industry. From 2009 to 2012, Firmenich launched microencapsulated fragrances for body care (lotions) and for personal cleansing products (shampoos, body washes).

Microcapsule essence is suspended in water in a concentrated way. In order to disperse it evenly into laundry detergent, softening agent, shower gel and other base materials, it is recommended to pre-disperse microcapsule essence when adding it to water. Use a disc-shaped dispersion paddle and stir at high speed for 10 minutes until it is evenly dispersed. When the microcapsule essence is added to the water-containing base material, it can resist high shear force well and will not be damaged.


Answer questions and answer questions:


Q: What are the advantages of Firmenich microencapsulated fragrances compared to other fragrance companies?

A: Based on feedback from some of our customers, our PopScent® microcapsules offer the following advantages:

1.The fragrance is relatively rich and the choice is more.

2.We develop high-impact fragrances that can be sensed in small amounts.

3.We are constantly optimizing the wall material of microcapsule essence, stability and performance are good in general.

Q: Will it layer when added to laundry detergent?

A:For structural laundry detergent, that is, laundry detergent with a suspension agent added, if the amount of microcapsule essence and the suspension capacity of the suspension agent can match, there is generally no microcapsule delamination and agglomeration.

For non-structured laundry detergents, we recommend PopScent®, a high-impact, specially treated microcapsule flavor with a small dosage and basically stable suspension at room temperature.

Q: Whether microencapsulated fragrances and ordinary fragrances mix?

A:It adds up a little bit, but it doesn't make a big difference. Ordinary liquid flavor mainly emits aroma during dry smelling products and washing process, while microcapsule flavor releases aroma by light touch or friction after drying on the washing surface.

Q: Is the microencapsulated essence retained by washing or rubbing after attachment?

A: During washing, microencapsulated fragrances from detergents (laundry detergents, body washes, shampoos, etc.) are deposited on the fabric, skin, or hair. After drying, the microcapsule essence is broken by slight touch or friction, and the internal essence slowly releases the aroma, so as to achieve lasting fragrance retention.

Q: How much aroma is used in the laundry gel? Do I need to add suspension and shading agents?

A:Because the laundry coagulant is basically a water-less/water-free system, and the microcapsule essence is water-based dispersion, a certain amount of suspension agent needs to be added to the coagulant to form a structure, and the microcapsule essence is stably suspended and dispersed in the system.

Shading agent mainly depends on the appearance requirements of different customers, microcapsule essence dispersed in the bead will have an impact on transparency to a certain extent, if you accept this translucent state, do not add shading agent can also be. According to customer demand, a few percent to one percent is acceptable.  

Q:All flavors can be made into microencapsulated flavors

A: The liquid flavor (fragrance) suitable for microcapsule flavor is strictly screened and tested, and is generally easy to be perceived, comfortable smell, and lasting fragrance. Secondly, the liquid essence must be stable in the base material after being wrapped in the microcapsule. After aging, the performance and strength should be maintained at a certain level. Such flavor (fragrance) is more suitable for microcapsule flavor.
