They are generally used in detergent products, particularly liquid and solid detergents, but also softeners, showing excellent ageing properties with respect to the fragrance they contain.<\/li>\n<li>Our machines capable of producing emulsions by the core-shell or membrane method create these tiny droplets in a stable way, at a lower energy cost. Our work on emulsion polymerization and on surfactants compatible with microcapsules allows us to obtain this result, with diameters of about 20 \u03bcm.<\/li>\n<li>Technical expertise in microcapsules with effective properties<\/li>\n<li>The microcapsules produced can contain various active ingredients, while being protected by the membrane. There are several methods of membrane microencapsulation: the first, historically, is complex coacervation, also called &#8220;phase separation&#8221;, followed by interfacial polymerization and in situ polymerization.<\/li>\n<li>These methods make it possible to create a resistant membrane that can then serve as a shield for the fragrance until it is released.<br \/>\nIn addition, the membrane will allow, through surface modifications, to improve the cling of the microcapsules to the linen and thus to release the active ingredients which are there at the desired place.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The principle of membrane microencapsulation or &#8220;core-shell&#8221; Membrane microencapsulation, also known as &#8220;core-shell&#8221;, contrasts with matrix capsules, which are homogeneous.
