Abstract:
Described are methods of determining free hydrophobic active in aqueous formulations including the steps of encapsulating a hydrophobic active, preparing a formulation containing encapsulated hydrophobic active, adding a cyclodextrin to the formulation, thereby entraining any free hydrophobic active; and quantifying the amount of free hydrophobic active.

Abstract:
There is provided a coating composition comprising (a) one or more binder, (b) one or more water-insoluble biocide, and (c) particles comprising polymer, wherein said particles have specific surface area of 900 m2/g or more.
Abstract:
A composition is provided, comprising microcapsules, wherein said microcapsules comprise a core and an outer shell, wherein said core comprises one or more water-insoluble compound having melting point above 15° C., wherein said outer shell comprises one or more amino resin that is a reaction product of reactants comprising one or more polyamine and formaldehyde, and wherein said composition further comprises one or more formaldehyde scavenger, one or more reaction product of said amino resin with a formaldehyde scavenger, or a mixture thereof. Also provided is a method of making such a composition.

Abstract:
A composition is provided with increased release comprising an encapsulated active and one or more metal additive. Also provided is a coating composition comprising an encapsulated active, and one or more metal additive, and one or more binder polymer, one or more binder precursor, or a mixture thereof, and one or more pigment. Also provided is a method of making such compositions. Also provided is a method of providing a surface that resists marine fouling wherein said method comprises applying a layer of such compositions to a substrate and drying said layer or allowing said layer to dry.
