Botanical’s Breath has developed propriety technology to microencapsulate tiny droplets of essential oil are encapsulated within a protective coating.
Our microencapsulated essential oils preserve their volatile and sensitive nature, control their release, improve stability, and provide other desirable properties.
These proprietary microencapsulated essential oil particles can be incorporated into various products, such as cosmetics, personal care items, foods and beverages, nutraceuticals and pharmaceuticals.
Micro encapsulated essential oils offer several benefits and find applications in various industries. Botanical’s Breath micro encapsulated essential oils offers several advantages, including enhanced stability, protection from environmental factors (e.g., light, heat, oxidation), controlled release, improved solubility, reduced volatility, and masking of strong or unpleasant odours.
Improved Stability
Essential oils are volatile and can degrade due to factors like exposure to light, heat, oxygen, and moisture. Microencapsulation helps protect the essential oil from these factors, extending its shelf life and preserving its potency. The protective coating acts as a barrier, reducing oxidation and preventing evaporation, thus maintaining the quality and effectiveness of the oil over an extended period.
Controlled Release
Microencapsulation allows for controlled release of the essential oil, providing a sustained or delayed release of its aroma, flavour, or therapeutic properties. The encapsulated particles can be designed to release the oil gradually, ensuring a longer-lasting effect in products such as air fresheners, fabric sprays, or diffusers.
Enhanced Solubility
Some essential oils have limited solubility in water or other formulations, making their incorporation challenging. Microencapsulation can improve the solubility of essential oils by dispersing them in a carrier material that is more compatible with the desired formulation. This enables the use of essential oils in a wider range of applications, including water-based products like beverages, oral care products, or cosmetics.
Odour Masking
Essential oils, particularly those with strong or pungent odours, can be unpleasant to the senses when used directly. Microencapsulation helps in masking or minimizing the strong odours by trapping the volatile compounds within the encapsulation material. This allows for a more controlled release of the aroma, making the essential oil more pleasant to use in various products, such as personal care items, cleaning products, or industrial applications.
Targeted Delivery
Micro encapsulation enables the targeted delivery of essential oils to specific sites or systems within the body. By encapsulating the oil, it can be protected during transit through the body and released at the desired location, enhancing its therapeutic potential. This targeted delivery is valuable in pharmaceutical applications, where encapsulated essential oils can be used in drug formulations or controlled-release systems.
