  • Treatment of cotton fabrics with ethyl cellulose microcapsules [Elektronski vir]
    Badulescu, Roxana ...
    In textiles, the major interest in microencapsulation is currently in the application of durable fragrances, skin softener, phase-change materials, and antimicrobial agents [1]. The preparation of ... microcapsules from ethyl cellulose (EC) has been reported in the literature using various methods such as phase separation, coacervation, solvent evaporation, either by addition of a non-solvent, or of an incompatible polymer [2-5]. The morphology of the microcapsules greatly depended on the solvent system [6]. The viscosity and concentration of EC as a wall former, ratio of EC and active ingredient, and concentration of emulsifier influenced also the properties of microcapsules [5]. Zandi and coworkers [3] studied the effects on particle size, encapsulation efficiency and morphology of different molecular weights of EC.In our research, cotton fabrics were treated with EC microcapsules containing essential oils such as Rosemary oil or limonene. Rosemary oil is used in aromatherapy and in medicine for its antibacterial and antifungal properties. Limonene is the main component of the essential lemon oil; it is widely used in perfumes and cosmetics.
