Abstract: A synthetic resin product which contains various substances such as perfumes, insectifuges/insecticides, rust preventives, mold/mildes-proofing or anti-fungi agents which are inactivated by forming an inclusion compound thereof in cyclodextrin and coated with glycitol(s) to thereby prolong the duration period thereof. A process for the production of the same is further disclosed.

Description: Background of the Invention Field of the Invention: This invention relates to a synthetic resin product containing various subsatance(s) selected from among perfumes, insectifuges, rust preventive, mildewproofing agent and bactericide in the form of an inclusion compound in cyclodextrin and a process for the production of the same. Description of the Prior Art: There have been developed various processes for the production of smelling and/or insectifugal synthetic resin products. Some processes comprise applying perfume(s) and/or insectifuge(s)/insecticide onto the surface of a synthetic resin product. Others comprise injecting perfume(s) and/or insectifuge(s)/insecticide into a space in a synthetic resin product or laminating synthetic resin sheets and injecting perfume(s) and/or insectifuge(s)/insecticide between these sheets. It is also possible to mix perfume(s) and/or insectifuge(s)/insecticide with a synthetic resin compound followed by molding the obtained mixture. Perfume(s) and/or insectifuge(s)/insecticide applied on the surface of a synthetic resin product would vaporize so soon that they might not exhibit a persistent effect. On the contrary, those injected into a synthetic resin product would hardly vaporise and might not exhibit an expected effect. Further direct addition of perfume(s) and/or insectifuge(s)/insecticide to a synthetic resin compound is not as effective as it seems. This is because perfumes and/or insectifuges/insecticides are genelally so volatile, liable to denature and unstable to heat that it is difficult in practice to mold a mixture of perfume(s) and/or insectifuge(s)/insecticides and a synthetic resin compound into a desired shape. It was further attempted to adsorb desired perfume(s) and/or insectifuge(s)/insecticide(s) by porous inorganic substances such as calcium silicate, zeolite or powdery alumina or porous polymer powders obtained by quenching and artificially grinding synthetic resins with the use of liquid nitrogen during the preparation thereof and to incorporate the obtained composition in a plastic followed by molding. However the desired perfume(s) and/or insectifuge(s)/insecticide(s) are adsorbed merely in pores in each process so that it is necessary to adsorb an excessive amount of them, including those which vaporize at the molding temperature, to give a sufficient amount of the same in molded products, which brings about an additional cost. Thus these processes are not preferable. Further perfume(s) and/or insectifuge(s)/insecticide(s) are not chemically bonded to cyclodextrin but merely absorbed in pores. Therefore some might be completely removed when heated for molding or might bleed in a short period. Thus these processes are not practical. Under these circumstances, we have previously invented a process for producing a smelling synthetic resin product which comprises forming an inclusion compound consisting of a perfume included in cyclodextrin, drying and powdering the obtained inclusion compound and mixing the obtained powder with a synthetic resin compound (cf. Japanese Patent No. 1090861). We have further invented a process for producing an insectifugal and insecticidal film which comprises forming an inclusion compound consisting of an insectifugal and insecticidal agent included in cyclodextrin, drying and powdering the obtained inclusion compound and mixing the obtained powder with a synthetic resin compound followed by molding into a film (cf. Japanese Patent Application No. 188212/1984). Machines as well as their parts have been packaged by applying rust preventives such as liquid paraffin thereon to wrapthem with oil membrane to thereby prevent rusting. The rust preventives such as liquid paraffin are removed at use. Therefore it is required to apply a rust preventive and to remove the same each time a machine is packaged. Conventional oilpapers exhibit some rust preventive effect. However this effect is so insufficient that it is necessary to directly apply a rust preventive on a machine to be packaged. It has been also attempted to package a machine with a paper impregnated with a rust preventive. However this method is available only in a limited range since fine paper pieces entering apertures of a precision machine would cause trouble. It is a large problem to prevent rust or mildew in silicone and epoxy resins which have been recently employed in semiconductor materials. Since these resins are used in precision electrical instruments, it is impossible to spray or apply rust preventive(s) or mildewproofing agent(s) thereon. Thus these materials are packaged with paper sheets exhibiting a rust preventive and/or mildew-proofing effect. Also it is sometimes required to prevent rusting in coatings, tackifiers and adhesives. Furthermore those products have a smell or an insectifugal and/or rust preventive effect may be available in a wider range. We have previously invented a product wherein an inclusion compound consisting of a perfume included in cyclodextrin is formed, the inclusion compound thus obtained is mixed with a latex and the mixture is applied on the surface of a tacky substrate (cf. Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 185372/1982). A smelling synthetic resin product produced by forming an inclusion compound consisting of a perfume included in cyclodextrin, powdering and drying the obtained inclusion compound and mixing the obtained powder with a synthetic resin compound is much more excellent than those produced by conventional methods. Subsequent studies have proved that not only perfumes but also various substances such as insectifuges, mildew-proofing agents and rust preventives may be formed into an inclusion compound so long as it can be included in cyclodextrin to thereby produce synthetic resin products having the effect of each substance. However these inclusion compounds consisting of perfumes, insectifuges, mildew-proofing agents or rust preventives included in cyclodextrin can not be used in practice in synthetic resin products of a high molding temperature, i.e. 180°C or above. Cyclodextrin per se is stable at high temperatures and shows no chemical change so that it is theoretically possible to use it in a synthetic resin of a high molding temperature. However pure cyclodextrin is so expensive that dehydrogenated starches containing cyclodextrin are employed in practice. These dehydrogenated starches are contaminated with reducing sugars which would be denatured and charred when molded at a high temperature. Although there is no problem in the production of a synthetic resin product having various effects by forming an inclusion compound consisting of perfume(s), insectifuge(s) or rust preventive(s) included in cyclodextrin, drying and powdering the obtained inclusion compound and mixing the obtained powder with a synthetic resin compound on a laboratory scale with the use of pure cyclodextrin, there remains a problem to be solved in the production thereof on an industrial scale. In addition, the volatility of each substance is somewhat depressed by including the same in cyclodextrin to thereby form an inclusion compound, which allows its effect to persist for a much longer period than with conventional products. However the persistence is somewhat insufficient yet. Summary of the Invention Under these circumstances, the present invention provides a synthetic resin product containing a compound included in cyclodextrin and a process for the production of the same. The synthetic resin product according to the present invention contains an inclusion compound consisting of one or more substances selected from among perfumes, insectifuges, rust preventives, mildew-proofing agents and bactericides included in cyclodextrin and a glycitol wherein said perfume(s), insectifuge(s), rust preventive(s) and/or mildew-proofing agent(s) are inactivated by formulating into the inclusion compound in cyclodextrin and coated with said glycitol to thereby enhance the persistence of the effects thereof. The synthetic resin product exhibiting the abovementioned effects may be produced by mixing one or more substances selected from among perfumes, insectifuges, rust preventives, mildew-proofing agents and bactericides with a reduction cyclodextrin millet jelly optionally containing cyclodextin or a reduction millet jelly containing cyclodextrin to thereby form an inclusion compound consisting of said perfume(s), insectifuge(s), rust preventive(s), mildew-proofing agent(s) and/or bactericide(s) included in cyclodextrin; drying and powdering the obtained inclusion compound; melting 1 to 60 % by weight of the obtained powder together with a synthetic resin compound; pelletizing the molten mixture; and molding the obtained pellets optionally with an appropriate amount of the synthetic resin compound. Alternately one or more substances selected from among perfumes, insectifuges, rust preventives, mildew-proofing agents and bactericides are mixed with a reduction cyledextrin millet jelly optionally containing cyclodextrin or a reduction millet jelly containing cyclodextrin to thereby form an inclusion compound consisting of perfume(s), insectifuge(s), rust preventive(s), mildew-proofing agent(s) and/or bactericide(s) included in cyclodextrin. Then the obtained inclusion compound is dried and powdered and 1 to 60 % by weight of the resulting powder is mixed with a synthetic resin coating, a synthetic resin adhesive or a synthetic resin tackifier as such or under heating to thereby convert reducing sugars contained in the cyclodextrin dehydrogenated satrch as impurities into chemically stable glycitols which are used to form an inclusion compound consisting of perfume(s), insectifuge(s), rust preventie(s) and/or mildew-proofing agent(s). Then the obtained inclusion compound is dried and powdered and the resulting powder is converted into a chemically stable form by mixing with various sunthetic resin materials, synthetic resin coating, synthetic resin adhesive or synthetic resin tackifier thus enabling the use of various synthetic resin materials and prolonging the duration period of the effect of each substance by taking advantage of the glycitol coating. Brief Description of the Drawings Fig. 1 is a graph which shows the amounts (%) of residual fenithrothion (Sumithion) in samples 1 and 2 determined with the initial amount thereof as 100, wherein  and ○ refer to samples and 1 and 2, respectively. Detailed Description of Preferred Embodiments The reduction millet jelly used in the present invention is obtained by hydrolyzing starch with an acid or an enzyme to give a maltoligosaccharide mixture comprising glucose, maltose, maltotriose and similar compounds and hydrogenating the mixture in the presence of a nickel catalyst under elevated pressure. Thus reductive terminals of the reducing sugars are hydrogenated to give the corresponding glycitols. That is, glucose, maltose and maltotriose are converted into sorbitol, maltitol and maltotriitol, respectively, and lose their reductivity. Thus the D.E. (dextrose equivalent; the ratio of reducing sugars to the total solid matters) of the mixture turns to 0. Therefore the mixture becomes more stable to heat and shows little coloration caused by a reaction with amino radicals contained in amino acids or the like, i.e. aminocarbonyl reaction. The reduction cyclodextrin millet jelly used in the present invention includes the abovementioned reduction millet jelly containing cyclodextrin. Since cyclodextrin exhibits no reductivity, the D.E. of the same is 0. In practice, the reduction cyclodextrin millet jelly can be obtained by catalytically reducing a millet jelly containing cyclodextrin, e.g. Celldex CH-20 or CH-30 mfd. by Nippon Shokuhin Kako K.K., in the manner as described above. The cyclodextrin contained therein shows no change by the above procedure but reducing sugars other than the cyclodextrin are reduced and converted into the corresponding glycitols.

Comparative Example 1 A vermin-prrofing and insecticidal film containing fenitorothion produced in a conventional manner (hereinafter referred to as sample 1) and another vermin-proofing and insecticidal film containing fenitrothion and produced by the process of the present invention (hereinafter referred to as sample 2) were prepared. Each film was allowed to stand at 25 °C and the change in the amount of fenitrothion contained therein was monitored by high performance liquid chromatgraphy. Samples 1 and 2 were as follows. Sample 1: Fenitrothion (Sumithion;mfd. by Sumitomo Chemical Co. , Ltd. ) was included in a millet jelly containing cyclodextrin (Celldex CH-20;mfd. by Nippon Shokuhin Kako K. K. and containing 20% of cyclodextrin). The obtained molecular inclusion compound was mixed with polyethelene pellets and the mixture was molded into a film by inflation process. Sample 2: This sample is a product of the present invention. The same procedure as described relating to the above sample 1 was followed to prepare film, except that the millet jelly containing cyclodextrin was substituted by hydrogenated millet jelly containing cyclodextrin (tentatively named 20H). The following table shows the amounts (%) of residual fenitrothion (Sumithion) in samples 1 and 2 determined with the initial amount of the same as 100%. Fig. 1 shows changes in the residual amounts (%) thereof determined with the initial amount of the same as 100%, wherein  and ○ refers to samples 1 and 2, respectively. The table and Fig. 1 clearly suggest that sample 2 can repress the volatilization of Sumithion (i. e. a guest compound) by approximately 20% compared with sample 1. Thus the present invention makes it possible to decrease the necessary amount of the guest compound as well as to prolong the duration period of the effect of the same. It has further proved that the present invention can prolong the duration periods of the effects of insecticides other than Sumithion, perfumes, mold/mildew-proofing or anti-fungi agents and rust preventives. Table Comparative Example 2 Samples 3, 4 and 5 were produced by the following manner and thermal stability, dispersibility and compatibility of each sample were examined. Sample Sample 3: A perfume was included in a millet jelly containing cyclodextrin (Celldex CH-20; mfd. by Nippon Shokuhin Kako K. K. and containing 20% of cyclodextrin) to form an molecular inclusion compound which was then molded into master pellets. 10 parts by weight of these master pellets were mixed with 90 parts by weight of polyethylene pellets and the mixture was molded into a film of 100 µ in thickness by inflation. Sample 4: This sample is a product of the present invention. A film was produced in the same manner as described relating to the above sample 3 except that the millet jelly containing cyclodextrin was substituted by a hydrogenated millet jelly containing cyclodextrin (Celldex CH-20 H; mfd. by Nippon Shokuhin Kako K. K. and containing 20% of cyclodextrin). Sample 5: A film was producedin the samemanner as described relating to the above sample 3 except that the millet jelly containing cyclodextrin was substituted by β-cyclodextrin. Thermal stability Sample 3 showed no trouble at molding temperature of 150 to 170 °C but sugars contained therein were charred and colored at 200°C accompanied by a burning smell. Sample 4 showed no change at the molding temperature (200°C). It was confirmed that it can be molded at a higher temperature than sample 3. Sample 5 showed no trouble at the molding temperature (200°C) similar to sample 4. Dispersibility and compatibility Sample 3 showed an excellent dispersibility and an excellent compatibility. Sample 4 showed an excellent dispersibility and an excellent compatibility. Sample 5 showed a much worse compatibility than those of samples 3 and 4. The dispersibility of its inclusion compound was also poor. Discussion Sample 3 showed an excellent dispersibility as well as an excellent compatibility but the thermal stability thereof was poor. Sample 5 showed an excellent thermal stability but the dispersibility and compatibility thereof were poor. On the other hand, sample 4, which was the product of the present invention, showed an excellent thermal stability, an excellent dispersibility and excellent compatibility. As described above, a synthetic resin product containing a compound included in cyclodextrin and a process for the production of the same according to the present invention, wherein perfume(s), insectifuge(s)/insecticide(s), mold/mildew-proofing or anti-fungi agent(s), rust preventie(s) and/or bactericide(s) are included in cyclodextrin to form a molecular inclusion compound which is then mixed with a synthetic resin compound and glycitol(s) to thereby produce a synthetic resin product, show a uniform effect caused by the uniform dispersion of the perfume(s), insectifuge(s)/insecticide, mold/mildew-proofing or anti-fungi agent(s) and/or bactericide(s) and an excellent thermal stability which makes it possible to mold theproduct at a higher temperature since reducing sugars contained in the decomposed starch as impurities are converted into glycitols.
