Sistema de liberación de microcápsulas en el sector textil. | 32/44 | UPV

Title: Microcapsule release system in the textile sector. Automatic description: This video discusses the release systems used in the textile sector for the encapsulation of active ingredients, which offer multiple benefits such as protection of the active ingredient, separation of incompatible components, and reduction of toxicity. Microcapsules with different functionalities, such as mosquito repellent, aromatic, or moisturizing, are highlighted, and can be applied to fabrics to give them specific characteristics. Encapsulation allows for controlled release of the active ingredient, ensuring its durability and resistance to everyday processes such as washing or ironing. The release system and membrane type are chosen based on the desired effect, whether continuous, low-intensity release through permeable membranes or instant, intensive release through impermeable or soluble membranes. Practical examples are given: anti-cellulite stockings use impermeable membranes to release the active ingredient only during use due to movement. Aroma curtains use permeable membranes for a constant and gentle release of scent. Medical textiles can incorporate soluble membranes that react to changes in skin pH, such as those caused by infections. Finally, thermoregulatory textiles contain paraffin in microcapsules, whose membrane protects the contents regardless of their physical state.
