Biodegradable perfume microcapsule emulsifiers: HenkelRecent Research Landscape

Visual instability and residue persistence in encapsulated delivery systems lead to consumer rejection and environmental accumulation. These innovations engineer the degradation kinetics and optical properties of the capsule shell to ensure invisible integration and complete breakdown.

What technical problems is Henkel addressing in Biodegradable perfume microcapsule emulsifiers?

Fragrance volatility and instability

(6)evidences

Volatile aromatic compounds suffer from rapid evaporation and degradation in solid matrices. Preventing uncontrolled release ensures long-term olfactory efficacy and product shelf-life.

Environmental persistence of microencapsulants

(5)evidences

Volatile aromatic compounds dissipate too quickly or degrade before reaching the target substrate. Preventing early release ensures long-lasting sensory impact and product efficacy.

Uncontrolled fragrance release rate

(2)evidences

Uncontrolled leakage of volatile or sensitive components during storage and handling. Preventing early loss ensures maximum efficacy and sensory impact upon final application.
