ABSTRACT:
An improved process for producing by interfacial reaction, a high solids an aqueous slurry of microcapsules is disclosed. Typical interfacial reaction involves the steps of emulsifying an oil phase containing the material to be encapsulated plus an oil-soluble, film-forming polyisocyanate in a continuous aqueous phase containing an emulsifying polymer under high shear conditions until the desired droplet size is obtained and then, under low shear conditions, adding a polyamine solution followed by an elevated temperature reaction sufficient to complete hardening of the polyurea capsule walls. The improvement of the invention comprising the introduction of a reaction period at elevated temperature between emulsification and polyamine addition, said reaction period permitting capsules of 10 microns or less average diameter to be made at greater than 40% by weight solids without agglomeration or resultant excess viscosity.
