Description:
CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION 
       [0001]    This application claims priority to U.S. Provisional Application Ser. No. 61/533,989, filed Sep. 13, 2011. 
     
    
     FIELD OF INVENTION 
       [0002]    The present application relates to encapsulated, preformed peracids and products comprising such encapsulates, as well as processes for making and using such encapsulates and products comprising such encapsulates. 
       BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 
       [0003]    Products, for example, consumer products may comprise one or more benefit agents that can provide a desired benefit to such product and/or a situs that is contacted with such a product—for example stain removal and/or bleaching. Unfortunately, in certain products, for example, fluid products, benefit agents such as preformed peracids may be degraded by or degrade components of such products before such product is used—this is particularly true when the product has a pH greater than about 6. Thus, a protection system that protects the components of a product from a benefit agent is desired. Efforts have been made in this area but typically either fail to provide the required level of protection or fail to release the benefit agent when it is needed. Thus, the need for encapsulated benefit agents that are available during product use, yet which do not damage such product during product storage, remains. Applicants disclose a particle comprising a benefit agent, such as a preformed peracid, wherein the benefit agent is contained in a hydrogel core, said core having a pH wherein the benefit agent is stable. Such core is then encapsulated by an encapsulating material. While not being bound by theory, Applicants believe that said core&#39;s environment is such that the benefit agent is stable while the encapsulating material allows for a separate environment outside of the particle, for example a pH greater than 6. Surprisingly, the difference in the core&#39;s environment and the environment outside of the particle can be so dramatically different that materials that could not previously be combined in a composition may now be combined with minimal stability issues. Yet, during use the benefit agent is, as desired, released. Thus, multiple benefits can now be obtained from a single composition, for example, bleaching and enzymatic cleaning can now be obtained from liquid detergent products. 
       SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION 
       [0004]    The present application relates to particles comprising a benefit agent encapsulated by a first layer that is in turn encapsulated by a second material, and products comprising such particles, as well as processes for making and using such particles and products comprising such particles.

       Composition 
       [0016]    In one aspect a composition having a pH of from about 6.5 to about 14, from about 7 to about 10 or even from about 7.5 to about 9, said composition comprising an encapsulate having a diameter of from about 10 microns to about 450 microns, from about 20 microns to about 350 microns, or even from about 35 microns to about 250 microns, said encapsulate comprising a shell and a matrix composition, said shell encapsulating said matrix composition, said matrix composition having a pH from about 3.5 to about 6, or even 4.5 to about 5.5, said matrix composition comprising a matrix network material and matrix benefit agent cores, said matrix benefit agent cores being entrapped in said matrix network material is disclosed. 
         [0017]    In one aspect of said composition, said matrix composition may comprise a self-assembled matrix network material having a molecular weight from about 150 g/mol to about 1500 g/mol, from about 250 g/mol to about 1200 g/mol, or even from about 500 g/mol to about 850 g/mol. 
         [0018]    In one aspect of said composition, said self-assembled matrix network material may comprise a pH tuneable di-amido gellant. pH tuneable di-amido gellants may provide the fluid composition with a viscosity profile that is dependent on the pH of the composition. Hence, the pH tuneable di-amido gellant may be added to a fluid composition at a pH at which the viscosity is sufficiently low to allow easy mixing. The pH tuneable di-amido gellants may comprise at least one pH sensitive group. When a pH tuneable di-amido gellant is added to a fluid composition comprising a polar protic solvent such as water, it is believed that the nonionic species form the viscosity building network while the ionic species are soluble and do not form a viscosity building network. By increasing or decreasing the pH (depending on the selection of the pH-sensitive groups) the amido gellant may be either protonated or deprotonated. Thus, by changing the pH of the solution, the solubility, and hence the viscosity building behaviour, of the di-amido gellant can be controlled. By careful selection of the pH-sensitive groups, the pKa of the amido gellant can be tailored. Hence, the choice of the pH-sensitive groups can be used to select the pH at which the di-amido gellant builds viscosity. 
         [0019]    In one aspect of said composition, said self-assembled matrix network material is in its neutral viscosity building form at a pH of from about 3 to about 6.

         [0000]    such that at least one of L, R, R′ and R″ comprises at least one pH-sensitive group. In one aspect, R may comprise the pH-sensitive group.

         [0000]

         [0181]    C. Analytical Test for Bleach Boosters:
       Isoquinolinium class materials and the activated intermediate can be measured by mass spectrometry. Depending upon the response of the individual molecule, electrospray mass spectrometry operated in positive or negative ion is used to measure the isoquinolinium and the oxidized intermediate. MS analysis is done either by direct infusion or by injecting discrete amounts of diluted sample (flow injection analysis). No HPLC separation is needed.
           a. Eluents: acetonitrile:water (1/1)+1 mmol ammonium acetate.   b. Instrument settings are optimized for individual molecules to obtain maximum response.   c. Subsequent measurements are done either in selective ion mode or multiple reaction monitoring.   d. Samples are diluted in acetonitrile/water 1/1+1 mmol ammonium acetate. Dilution factor depends upon concentration of the isoquinolinium.   e. MS setup: electrospray in either positive or negative ion mode. When full scan acquisition is desired, both scan modes are alternated.   
           Release index is calculated using the same formula as described above for metal catalysts.       
 
         [0189]    D. Analytical Test for Diacyl Peroxides:
       Diacyl peroxides are measured by means of HPLC separation followed by electrochemical detection. A short chain RP column is used for the separation, 5 μm, 250 mm*4.6 mm A typical eluent is water/acetonitrile (250 mL/850 mL) with 0.0025 M ammonium dihydrogen phosphate. The flow rate is set up to 1.0 mL/min and the detection is done by DC amperometry or colorimetry. Samples are diluted in a mixture of acetonitrile and acetic acid glacial in a ratio of 90% acetonitrile and 10% acetic acid glacial prior to analysis. Release index is calculated using the same formula as described above for metal catalysts

             Isoquinolinium class materials and the activated intermediate can be measured by mass spectrometry. Depending upon the response of the individual molecule, electrospray mass spectrometry operated in positive or negative ion is used to measure the isoquinolinium and the oxidized intermediate. MS analysis is done either by direct infusion or by injecting discrete amounts of diluted sample (flow injection analysis). No HPLC separation is needed.
           f. Eluens: acetonitrile: water (1/1)+1 mmol ammonium acetate.   g. Instrument settings are optimized for individual molecules to obtain maximum response.   h. Subsequent measurements are done either in selective ion mode or multiple reaction monitoring.   i. Samples are diluted in acetonitrile/water 1/1+1 mmol ammonium acetate. Dilution factor depends upon concentration of the isoquinolinium.   j. MS setup: electrospray in either positive or negative ion mode. When full scan acquisition is desired, both scan modes alternated.   
         
             Stability index is calculated using the same formula as described above for metal catalysts.

             Diacyl peroxides are measured by means of HPLC separation followed by electrochemical detection. A short chain RP column is used for the separation, 5 μm, 250 mm*4.6 mm A typical eluent is water/acetonitrile (250 mL/850 mL) with 0.0025M ammonium dihydrogen phosphate. The flow rate is set up to 1.0 mL/min and the detection is done by DC amperometry or colorimetry. Samples are diluted in a mixture of acetonitrile and acetic acid glacial in a ratio of 90% acetonitrile and 10% acetic acid glacial prior to analysis. Stability index is calculated using the same formula as described above for metal catalysts 
           
         
       
     
       (4) pH Measurement of a Liquid Detergent Composition 
       [0241]    pH measurement of a liquid detergent composition may be measured using test method EN 1262. 
       (5) Minimum Gelling Concentration (MGC) 
       [0242]    MGC is calculated by a tube inversion method based on R. G. Weiss, P. Terech; “Molecular Gels: Materials with self-assembled fibrillar structures” 2006 springer, p 243. In order to determine the MGC, three screenings are done:
       a) First screening: prepare several vials increasing the pH tuneable amido gellant concentration from 0.5% to 5.0 weight % in 0.5% steps, at the target pH.   b) Determine in which interval the gel is formed (one inverted sample still flowing and the next one is already a strong gel). In case no gel is formed at 5%, higher concentrations are used.   c) Second screening: prepare several vials increasing the pH tuneable amido gellant concentration in 0.1 weight % steps in the interval determined in the first screening, at the target pH.   d) Determine in which interval the gel is formed (one inverted sample still flowing and the next one is already a strong gel)   e) Third screening: in order to have a very precise percentage of the MGC, run a third screening in 0.025 weight % steps in the interval determined in the second screening, at the target pH.   f) The Minimum Gelling Concentration (MGC) is the lowest concentration which forms a gel in the third screening (does not flow on inversion of the sample).
 
For each screening, samples are prepared and treated as follows: 8 mL vials (Borosilacate glass with Teflon cap, ref. B7857D, Fisher Scientific Bioblock) are filled with 2.0000±0.0005 g (KERN ALJ 120-4 analytical balance with ±0.1 mg precision) of water at the target pH for which we want to determine the MGC. The vial is sealed with the screw cap and left for 10 minutes in an ultrasound bath (Elma Transsonic T 710 DH, 40 kHz, 9.5 L, at 25° C. and operating at 100% power) in order to disperse the solid in the liquid. Complete dissolution is then achieved by heating, using a heating gun (Bosch PHG-2), and gentle mechanical stiffing of the vials. It is crucial to observe a completely clear solution. Handle vials with care. While they are manufactured to resist high temperatures, a high solvent pressure may cause the vials to explode. Vials are cooled to 25° C., for 10 min in a thermostatic bath (Compatible Control Thermostats with controller CC2, D77656, Huber). Vials are inverted, left inverted for 1 minute, and then observed for which samples do not flow. After the third screening, the concentration of the sample that does not flow after this time is the MGC. For those skilled in the art, it is obvious that during heating solvent vapours may be formed, and upon cooling down the samples, these vapours can condense on top of the gel. When the vial is inverted, this condensed vapour will flow. This is discounted during the observation period. If no gels are obtained in the concentration interval, higher concentrations must be evaluated.

                   4 Perfume microcapsules can be prepared as follows: 25 grams of butyl acrylate-acrylic acid copolymer emulsifier (Colloid C351, 25% solids, pka 4.5-4.7, (Kemira Chemicals, Inc. Kennesaw, Georgia U.S.A.) is dissolved and mixed in 200 grams deionized water. The pH of the solution is adjusted to pH of 4.0 with sodium hydroxide solution. 8 grams of partially methylated methylol melamine resin (Cymel 385, 80% solids, (Cytec Industries West Paterson , New Jersey, U.S.A.)) is added to the emulsifier solution. 200 grams of perfume oil is added to the previous mixture under mechanical agitation and the temperature is raised to 50° C. After mixing at higher speed until a stable emulsion is obtained, the second solution and 4 grams of sodium sulfate salt are added to the emulsion. This second solution contains 10 grams of butyl acrylate-acrylic acid copolymer emulsifier (Colloid C351, 25% solids, pka 4.5- 4.7, Kemira), 120 grams of distilled water, sodium hydroxide solution to adjust pH to 4.8, 25 grams of partially methylated methylol melamine resin (Cymel 385, 80% solids, Cytec). This mixture is heated to 70° C. and maintained overnight with continuous stirring to complete the encapsulation process. 23 grams of acetoacetamide (Sigma-Aldrich, Saint Louis, Missouri, U.S.A.) is added to the suspension.
