Schmidt Howard J. Buttery Robert J. Norbury Technical Field The present invention relates to perfume particles which comprise perfume dispersed within a water-insoluble low molecular weight polymeric carrier material, and encapsulated with a friable coating. Such coated particles are useful, for example, in cleaning and fabric conditioning compositions.
Background of the Invention This invention is based on the concept of controlled perfume release, perfume release at a time and under conditions that will achieve the desired perfume effect. In general, this is a very old idea, and various methods for achieving this end have been developed, from the simple idea of putting perfume in wax candles to the complex technology of microencapsulation.
One aspect of the concept of controlled release of perfume is providing slow release of perfume over an extended period of time.
This is generally achieved by blending perfume with a substance that will, in essence, "trap" the perfume so that small amounts of perfume are released over time. The use of high molecular weight polymeric substances having perfume incorporated therein to provide controlled release of perfume over time is known. See, for example, U.S. Patent 4,184,099 Lindauer et al, issued January 1980; European Patent Application 0 028 118, Leonard, published May 6, 1981; and U.S. Patent 4,110,261, Newland, issued August 29, 1978, which teach combining perfume with a release controlling medium and forming the combination into a solid product for air freshening.
Textile laundering is also concerned with controlled release of perfumes. Application of this concept allows for slowing down or preventing release of perfume through long periods of shelf storage. Such a concept also allows for using much lower levels of perfume in product since much less perfume is wastfed.
Perfume preservation over storage times can be achieved in a variety of ways. The perfume can be made a part of the package for the composition. The perfume can be combined with plastic used to make a bottle, or the perfume can be mixed with a polymer -2substance and the product used to coat a cardboard package composition, as is disclosed in U.S. Patent 4,540,721, Staller, issued September 10, 1985. Either way the perfume is released over time from the polymer matrix.
The perfume/controlled release agent may also be in the form of particles mixed into the laundry composition. One method taught to achieve this end is combining the perfume with a water-soluble polymer, forming into particles and adding to a laundry composition, as is described in U.S. Patent 4,209,417, Whyte, issued June 24, 1980; U.S. Patent 4,339,356, Whyte, issued July 13, 1982; and U.S. Patent 3,576,760, Gould et al, issued April 27, 1971.
The perfume may also be adsorbed onto a porous carrier material, which may be a polymeric material. See, for example, U.K. Patent Publication 2,0G6,839, Bares et al (applied for in the name of Vysoka Skola Chemicko Technologika), published July 1981. These methods may also be used to mask unpleasant odors in a composition or to protect perfume from degradation by harsh components in a laundry composition. Such methods will provide these benefits only for dry powder or granular type compositions because, as soon as the polymer is hydrated the perfume is released. Thus, these methods provide for perfume fragrance benefits upon opening of the product package and loading into the washing apparatus. While these benefits are desirable, it would be even more desirable to have a method which allows for delivery of undiluted, undissipated and unaltered perfume to fabric and release of the perfume at the end of the laundry process so that the fabric is scented with the desirable perfume odor, Of course, one method for achieving this end is putting the perfume into a product which goes directly into the dryer. This way, the perfume is delivered to the fabric in the dryer cycle.
Such a method is taught in both U.S. Patent 4,511,495, Melville, issued April 16, 1985, and U,S. Patent 4,636,330, Melyille, issued January 13, 1987. Both teach forming perfume into particles with a carrier. These particles are then formulated into a composition which is applied to textiles prior to putting into the dryer or prior to clothes-line drying.
-3- An even more desirable method for delivering perfume to laundered fabric would be one which provides for protection of the perfume through the washing process and hence delivery of the perfume to fabric in essentially its original state.
Such a method must allow for prevention of dilution, degradation or loss of the perfume during the wash cycle of the laundry process. This is done by utilizing a system that releases the perfume in the drying process or later after the perfume has been delivered to the fabric. Preventing release of perfume during the washing process involves very different and more difficult technology. Such protection must be stable in not only the heat-elevated conditions of the wash but must also be stable against degradation by water and other harsh chemicals in the washing process such as bleach, enzymes, surfactants, etc.
One method which has been developed to provide these benefits is perfume microencapsulation. Here the perfume comprises a capsule core which is coated completely with a material which may be polymeric. U.S. Patent 4,145,184, Brain et al, issued March 1979, and U.S. Patent 4,234,627, Schilling, issued November 18, 1980, teach using a tough coating material which essentially prohibits the diffusion out of the perfume. The perfume is delivered to fabric via the microcapsules and is then released by rupture of the microcapsules such as would occur with manipulation of the fabric.
Another method of perfume delivery involves providing protection of perfume through the wash cycle, with release of perfume in the heat-elevated conditions of the dryer. U.S. Patent 4,096,07". Brock et al, issued June 20, 1978, teaches a method for deliverri fabric conditioning agents to textiles through the wash and dry cycle via particles containing hydrogenated caster oil and a fatty quarternary ammonium salt. Perfume may be incorporated into these particles. However, it is not clear whether the perfume thus incorporated is released in the wash cycle or, more desirably, carried in the particles to the dryer and released as the particles soften. there, as the particles soften.
i_ -4- U.S. Patent 4,402,856, Schnoring et al, issued Septe'.ber 6, 1983, teaches a microencapsulatiun technique which involves the formulation of a shell material which will allow for diffusion of perfume out of the capsule only at certain temperatures. This allows for maintenance of the perfume particles through storage and additionally through the wash cycle. The particles adhere to the fabric and are carried over to the dryer. Diffusion of the perfume out of the capsules then occurs only in heat-elevated conditions of the dryer. These particles are made of gelatin, an anionic polymer and a hardening agent.
U.S. Patent 4,152,272, Young, issued May 1, 1979, teaches incorporating perfume into wax particles to protect the perfume through storage in dry compositions and thiough the laundry process. The perfume then diffuses through the wax matrix of the particles on the fabric in the heat-elevated conditions of the dryer.
It is desirable to provide compositions comprising perfume particles that can be incorporated in liquid as well as dry granular or powder compositions and provide long-term storage stability.
It is desirable to provide a method for delivering a broad range of perfume materials to fabric or other surfaces during a cleaning or fabric- or fiber-conditioning process.
It would be most desirable to have a perfumed cleaning or conditioning composition which would provide proved product odor, improved odor of perfume released during the cleaning process, and improved odor and intensity of perfume delivered to the surface being cleaned.
It would be particularly desirable to provide perfumed particles which are stable in fluid compositions, but which liberate their perfume, in use.

of a water-insoluble polymeric carrier material having a molecular weight of from about 100 to about 30,000, a melting point of from about 37°C to about 190°C, and a hardness value of from about 0.1 to about 15, said particles having a friable coating on their outer surfaces. (By "size" herein is meant average particle diameter for substantially spherical particles, or the size of the largest diameter or dimension for nonspherical particles.) Particle sizes larger than this may be more lost from the surface they are deposited on, and do not provide a relative great enough surface area to release the perfume at the desired rate. Also, particles larger than specified herein may be undesirably noticeable on the surface being treated. Particles at the low end of the range tend to adhere well to the surface being treated, but tend to release the perfume quite rapidly.
Typically, the particles herein are characterized by a coating which comprises up to 20% by weight of the perfumed particles. For general use in fabric laundering and conditioning compositions, the coating typically comprises from 1% to 10% by weight of the perfumed particles, Preferred particles herein are those wherein the friable coating is substantially water-insoluble. Suitable coatings of this type can be prepared frem aminoplast polymers, the reaction products of an amine and an aldehyde. Typical friable coatings comprise, for example, the reaction products of an amine selected from urea and melamine, and an aldehyde selected from formaldehyde, acetaldehydo and glutaraldehyde, and mixtures of said amines and said aldehydes. Such friable coatings are described hereinafter.
The coated perfume particles herein are useful in situations where the particle coating is ruptured or worn away in an automatic washing machine or laundry dryer) to release the particles, which, in turn, release their perfume. Thus, the coated particles are useful in typical cleaning 'composition, comprising detersive surfactants, optional builders, and the like.
The particles are likewise useful in conditioning compositions, comprising fiber- and fabric-conditioning agents.

Detailed Description of the Invention The present invention allows for preservation, protection, and delivery of perfumes contained in cleaning and conditioning compositions through extended storage and harsh cleaning conditions. This is achieved by isolation of the perfume in a carrier material in the form of small particles. The individual components of the invention will now be discussed in detail, The Perfumed Particles The perfumed particles of the present invention comprise perfume dispersed in certain carrier materials. The perfumed particles are coated with a friable coating material which ruptures in-use to release the perfumed particle which, in turn, releases its perfume.
In the present context, the term "perfume" means any odoriferous material or any material which acts as a malodor counteractant. In general, such materials are characterized by a vapor pressure greater than atmospheric pressure at ambient temperatures. The perfume or deodorant materials employed herein will most often be liquid at ambient temperatures, but also can be solids such as the various camphoraceous perfumes known in the art. A wide variety of chemicals are known for perfumery uses, including materials such as aldehydes, ketones, esters and the like. More commonly, naturally occurring plant and animal oils and exudates comprising complex mixtures of various chemical components are known for use as perfumes, and such materials can be used herein. The perfumes herein can be relatively simple in their composition or can comprise highly sophisticated, complex mixtures of natural and synthetic chemical components, all chosen to provide any desired odor.
Typical perfumes herein can comprise, for example, woody/ earthy bases containing exotic materials such as sandalwood oil, civet, patchouli oil and the like, The perfumes herein :an be of a light, floral fragrance, rose extract, violet extract and the like. The perfumes herein can be formulated to provide desirable fruity odors, lime, lemon, orange and the like.
7 Suitable perfumes include musk ambrette, musk ketone, musk tibetine, musk xylol, aurantiol, ethyl vanillin and mixtures thereof.
Perfume materials such as these are described more fully in S. Arctander, Perfume Flavors and Chemicals, Vols. I and II, Aurthor, Montclair, and the Merck index 8th Edition, Merck Co., Inc. Rahway, both references being incorporated herein by reference.
In short, any chemically compatible material which exudes a pleasant or otherwise desirable odor can be used in the perfumed particles herein to provide a desirable odor when applied to fabrics.
Perfumes which are normally solid can also be employed in the present invention. These may be admixed with a liquefying agent such as a solvent prior to incorporation into the particles, or may be simply melted and incorporated, as long as the perfume does not sublime or decompose upon heating.
The invention also encompasses the use of materials which act as malodor counteractants. These materials, although termed "perfumes" hereinafter, may not themselves have a discernible odor but can conceal or reduce any unpleasant odors. Examples of suitable malodor counteractants are disclosed in U.S, Patent No.
3,102,101, issued August 27, 1963, to Hawley et al.
The perfumed particles of the present invention can even comprise perfumes which are not typically used to deliver fragrance to a surface, such as fabric through the laundry process. Perfume materials which are very volatile, unstable, or soluble in the particular compositions being used to deliver the perfume may be used in the present invention because the perfume is isolated from the composition in the particles. Perfume materials which are not substantive to fabrics in the laundry process can also be used in the present invention since the particles deliver the perfume to the fabric surface where it is released. Thus, use of the present invention to deliver a perfume to a surface broadens the class of perfume materials that can be utilized.
ce r i -8- Generally, the perfumed particles of the present invention will comprise from about 5% to about 70%, preferably from about to about 50%, perfume. The exact amount of perfume used in the particles will vary greatly depending on the strength of the particular fragrance used, and the desired odor effect.
The carrier materials of the perfumed particles must meet certain criteria to be useful in the present invention. First, preerobly soulc the carrier materia -fmust be a water-insoluble polymeric material.
Further, the material must have a molecular weight between about 100 and about 30,000, preferably between about 500 and about 5000.
The molecular weight of the carrier material may be determined by any standard means. The material must also have/a melting point of between about 37'C and about 190'C, typically'37*C to 130'C, This will prevent melting of the particles in storage or ths washing machine in laundry applications'. (It is most desirable to have a carrier material that will not completely melt in an automatic dryer, to avoid blocking of the lint screen and excessive build-up of heat in the dryer). The melting point of the carrier material should also not be higher than. a point at which the perfume to be combined therewith will decompose. The melting point of the carrier material is measured by what is called the drop melting point method. American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) Test Method D127-63 (reapproved 1982, incorporated by reference herein). Briefly, this method involves the fo'l owig. The sample to be measured is deposited onto a thermometer bulb by dipping a chilled thermometer into the melted sample. The thermometer bearing the sample is then placed into a test tube and heated by means of a water bath until the sample melts and the first drop falls from the thermometer bulb. The average of the temperatures at which the drops of sample fall is the drop melting point of the sample.
The polymeric mhteria' must also be of a particular hardness.
This hardness value may be measured by the standard' test method for needle penetration of petroleum waxes. ASTM Test Method D1321-86 (incorporated by reference herein). Briefly, this method involves first melting and further heating the sample to be tested to 17C (30*F) above its congealing point. The sample is then i poured into a container and air cooled under controlled conditions. The sample is then conditioned at the test temperature in a water bath. Penetration is then measured with a penetrometer, which applies a standard needle to the sample for five seconds under a load of 100 grams. The penetration or hardness value is the depth, in tenths of a millimeter, to which the standard needle penetrates into the wax under these defined conditions. The hardness value of the carrier material must be between about 0.1 and about preferably between 0.1 and 8, to be useful in the present invention. This will allow for particles of a hardness that will optimize the perfume protection/preservation in the carrier.
Preferably the carrier material may also be inert to the perfume and relatively odorless. The material may also allow for diffusion of the perfume therethrough. The carrier material may also be such that it melts without decomposition.

The hardness value if the carrier ma rial must be between about 0.1 and about 15, preferably be een 0.1 and 8, to be useful in the present invention. Ths will allow for particles of a hardness that will optimiz the perfume protection/preservation in the carrier.
The arrier material must also be inert to the perfume and relt vely odorless. The material must allow for diffusion of the ",frfume therethrough. The carrier material must also be such that u t decofnis--ien-----.--- Nonlimiting examples of useful carrier materials include polyethylenes, polyamides, polystyrenes, polyisoprenes, polycarbonates, polyesters, polyacrylates, vinyl polymers and polyurethanes and mixtures thereof, which meet the above-described criteria, they are water-insoluble, have a molecular weight between about 100 and about 30,000, have a melting point between about 37'C and 190'C and a hardness value between 0.1 and Highly preferred carriers will have a hardness value of 0.1 to 8, typically 0.5; a molecular weight of 500 to 5,000 (typically 2,000); and a melting point of about 126'C typically, a polyethylene.
One carrier material which meets all of these specified criteria is sold under the trade name POLYWAX 2000 by Petrolite 3Specialty Polymers Group. This material is a polyethylene having a molecular weight of about 2,000, a melting point of about 259'F (126'C), and a hardness value (as measured above) at 77'F of about 0.5. Another material which meets these ,criteria is POLYWAX 1000 (also sold by Petrolite Specialty Polymers Group).
This material is also a polyethylene having a molecular weight of about 1,000, a melting point of about 237'F (114'C), and has a hardness value at 77'F (25'C) of about 1.0. Another such material y is POLYWAX 500.
It may be desirable to utilize a mixture of different carrier materials in the perfume particles of the present invention, for example, a blend of a polymeric material and a minor amount of a wax material. Examples of useful wix materials include the materials sold under the trade names BOLER 1014, STARWAX 100, and VICTORY, all available from the Boler Petroleum Company. Such a blend allows for better deposition properties because the particles formed therefrom would have a "stickier" surface. A grveat number of combinations of materials are possible and are intended to be covered by this invention so long as the final blend of carrier materials meets the criteria outlined abo,.
The choice of carrier material to be used in the perfumed particles of the present invention will depend to some degree on the particular perfume to be used. Some perfumes will require a 15 greater amount of protection than others and the carrier material to be used therewith can be chosen accordingly.
Generally, the perfumed particles used in the present invention will comprise from about 30% to about 95%, preferably from about 50% to about 95% carrier material. Again, this will vary with the type and amount of the particular perfume being utilized.
In a typical process, the perfume-containing particles can be made as follows, The carrier material is first heated slowly to its melting point. The material is not heated any more than is necessary to just melt the substance. The perfume is then quickly added, generally as an oil or liquid, at room temperature to the melted carrier substance. The two are quickly mixed into a homogeneous blend then rapidly cooled with liquid nitrogen (or with dry ice or any other means which will cool the mixture quickly) until it has completely solidified. The solid material is then subdivided, generally by grinding or milling, to produce particles of the desired average size. Other methods such as spray cooling or extrusion may also be used to subdivide the particles.
I
To further stabilize particularly volatile or delicate perfumes, it may be desirable to preload the perfume mix the perfume) onto silica gel or clay prior to combining with the carrier substance. Some perfumes which are not so volatile will -i 1 21*liTII: i--L 11not require this special treatment because it would inhibit their release from the carrier substance too much. Optimization of the rate at which the perfume is released from the carrier is the goal, and this optional additional step allows for better control of that rate with some of the more volatile perfumes.
The Coatinq The perfume-containing particles, above, are encapsulated to provide a friable coating. This coating prevents the perfume from diffusing out of the particles as readily during long storage periods. Moreover, the coating helps preserve the original "character" of perfumes having particularly volatile top-notes.
Moreover, the coating helps protect the perfumed particle from other ingredients in the formulation being perfumed.
The coating materials used herein are friable, and are 15 designed to break-up as the perfumed formulation is used, thereby releasing the perfumed particle.
The particles may be coated with more than one friable coating material to produce a particle having more than one layer of coating. Different coating materials can be chosen to provide 20 different perfume protection as needed, so long as one of the coatings, generally, the outermost, is friable.
The individual perfume-containing particles may also be agglomerated with the coating material to provide larger perticles which comprise a number of the individual perfume-containing particles. This agglomerating material surrounding the particles provides an additional barrier to diffusion of the perfume out of the particles. Such an approach also minimizes the surface area of free particles susceptible to perfume diffusion. The ratio of perfume particles to agglomerate material will vary greatly depending upon the extent of additional protection desired. This agglomeration approach may be particularly useful with very volatile perfumes or perfumes that are especially susceptible to degradation. Also, agglomeration of very small_ perfume particles would provide additional protection against premature diffusion out of perfume.
12 Agglomeration of particles in this fashion is useful in preventing segregation of small perfume particles from larger detergent granules, for example, in a dry granular detergent product.
Process of Manufacture For friable coatings, the process of manufacture is based on applying the coating as a kind of "shell" to the perfumed particles. For perfumed particles whose carrier material has a melting point below that of the boiling point of the solvent used in the process, the process involves melting the carrier and perfume together and adding the molten mixture to a solvent solution of the "shell" material, or a suitable precursor, held above the carrier melting temperature. The system is agitated sufficiently to form an emulsion of the carrier/perfume of desired liquid liquid drop size in the shell solution. The conditions necessary to deposit the encapsulating material are then established and the whole is cooled to give encapsulated solid particles having the desired, friable "shell". Water insolubility of the shell is established either at the deposition stage, or by suitable treatment prior to isolation or use of the particles.
Although the process described here is a one step molten drop formation/encapsulation procedure, it should be readily apparent to those skilled in the art that encapsulation of pre-formed perfume particles can be accomplished in a like manner. The pre-formed particles can be prepared in a variety of ways, o including cryogrinding, spray drying, spray congealing and meltable dispersion techniques such as those described in books by P. B. Deasy ("Microencapsulation Related Drug Processes", Dekker, 1986) and A. Kondo ("Microcapsule Processing and Technology", Dekker, 1979). Such techniques would be required for carrier materials having a melting point above the solvent boiling point.
A variety of suitable encapsulation procedures can be used, such as reviewed in the books by Deary and Kondo above. Depending on materials used, the shell can impart hydrophilicity or hydrophobicity to the particles. Nonlimiting examples of encapsulating materials and processes include gelatin-gum arabic i 13 concentrate deposited by a complex coacervation procedure, e.g., U.S. Patent 2,800,457, for hydrophilic shells, and ureaformaldehyde deposited by a polycondensation process, U.S.
Patent 3,516,941, for hydrophobic shells.
Water insolubility of the shell materials may be imparted by cross-linking of the gelatin-gum arabic coacervate with suitable aldehydes or other known gelatin hardeners after deposition.
Polymerization of the urea-formaldehyde precondensate during the encapsulation process yields water-insolubility.
The slurry containing the perfume particles can be used Sdirectly, spray dried with other components of the formulation, or the particles can be washed and separated, and dried if desired.
Example I Perfume particles containing a hydrophilic coating deposited by complex coacervation are prepared as follows.
132 g of POLYWAX 500 (polyethylene having a molecular weight of 500) is heated in a beaker on a hot plate at about 100'C until just melted. 44 g of perfume at room temperature is added to the melted POLYWAX 500 and heating is maintained to bring this core mixture back to 100'C.
The melted core material is added to 400 g of a 5% aqueous gelatin solution (Sanafi Type A, 275 Bloom strength) maintained 15-20'C above the core melting point in a 1-1 steel beaker, and emulsified by agitation until desired drop size around 100 p is reached. Then 200 g of hot, 11% gum arabic solution is added and agitation maintained for about 30 minutes.
The pH is reduced to around 4.2 by the dropwise addition of glacial acetic acid, and the beaker contents then poured into 1-1 of stirred water at room temperature. This solidifies the core mixture with a concomitant deposition of gelatin-gum arabic coacervate.
The coating is set by chilling the slurry in,ice water to around 5*C. The slurry may be used at this point, or the particle may be freed from any undeposited coacervate in the slurry by addition of about an equal volume of 10% sodium chloride and removing the capsules in a separatory funnel. This may be
^L
i I 14 repeated as necessary to fully remove the free coacervate. The particles may be dried by filtering, washing the filter cake with water, then with inopiopanol, followed by air drying overnight at The particles may then be sieved to desired size range.
Example II Perfume particles having a less water-soluble hydrophilic coating can be prepared as follows.
A slurry of perfume particles containing a gelatin-gum arabic coating are prepared as in Example 1. After chilling, the slurry is allowed to warm up to room temperature and 8.0 ml of aqueous glutaraldehyde solution is added with stirring. The pH is raised to 5.0 by addition of 2.5% aqueous sodium hydroxide solution, and the slurry is stirred overnight.
The slurry may be used at this point, or separated as in Example 1.
The glutaraldehyde-treated coating can withstand prolonged immersion in water at 60'C, whereas untreated coatings are removed on heating to Example III Perfume particles containing a hydrophobic, water-insoluble coating deposited by polycondensation are prepared as follows.
A urea-formaldehyde precondensate is first formed by heating a mixture of 162 g 37% aqueous formaldehyde and 60-65 g urea, 2adjusted to pH 8.0 with 0.53 g sodium tetraborate, for 1 hour at and then adding 276.85 g water.
429 ml of this precondensate and 142 ml water are then stirred in a 1-1 steel reactor and 57.14 g sodium chloride and 0.57 g sodium carboxymethyl cellulose added. Then are added the core components comprising 161.3 g POLYWAX 500 carrier and 60.7 ml perfume, and the reactor is heated to about 10°C above the core melting point. Agitation is adjusted to emulsify and maintain the molten core at the desired drop size, and the pH of'the contents is adjusted to about 5.0 with dilute hydrochloric acid.
The reactor is then allowed to cool to room temperature with a gradual pH reduction to 2.2 over a 2 hour period. The reactor 15 is then increased to about 50'C for a further 2 hours, then cooled to room temperature, after which the pH is adjusted to 7.0 with sodium hydroxide solution.
The resultant slurry containing the solid core particles encapsulated with urea-formaldehyde polymer may be used directly, or may be isolated by separation, washing and air drying as required.
The coated perfumed particles prepared in the foregoing manner can be used in all types of products where it is desirable to deposit fragr;ances on treated surfaces, and wherein sufficient agitation or pressure is exerted to rupture the friable coating.
Typical examples of such products are laundry detergents and fabric softeners. The following illustrates the use of the compositions of this invention in such products.
Laundry cleaning products comprise: a detersive surfactant; usually, one or more detergency builders; optionally, various enzymes, bleaches, carriers, and the like, all well-known from standard texts and very familiar to detergent formulators.
Surfactants include soap, alkyl benzene sulfonates, ethoxylated alcohols, alkyl sulfates, and the like. Builders include various phosphates, zeolites, polycarboxylates and the like. U.S. Patents 3,985,669, 4,379,080 and 4,605,609 can be referred to for typical listings of such ingredients.
Modern fabric softeners typically comprise one or more quaternary ammonium salts, or imidazoline or imidazolinium compounds. Softeners (and antistatic agent) generally have one, or preferably two, C1 2 -Cle alkyl substituents and two or three short chain alkyl groups. Again, such materials are conventional and well-known to softener formulators.

The composition is combined with the perfume particles of Example I as follows. An amount of the perfume particles of Example I is combined with the detergent composition so that the detergent composition comprises about 0.3% perfume.
The particles may be simply mixed in with the detergent granules. To prevent segregation of the perfume particles during packaging and shipping (due to their smaller size relative to the detergent granules), the particles can optionally be coated or agglomerated with a water-soluble coating material (on top of the friable coating) prior to combining with the detergent granules.
This can be accomplished with a Schugi mixer (Flexomix 160) where a sufficient amount of a dextrin glue solution dextrin, 3% water) is sprayed onto the particles to result in agglomerates of perfume particles in the same size range as other detergent granules.
The perfume is protected in the particles from degradation by the bleach in the detergent composition over long periods of storage. When used in the laundry process in an automatic washing machine this detergent composition will provide perfume fragrance in substantially its original state from product, through the wash process and onto the fabric.
A great number of perfumes can be utilized in the present composition that would not otherwise be appropriate for use in such laundry detergent compositions.

It will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that the anions, X, used with any of the cationic fabric softeners herein are a routine matter of choice, and that X can be, for example, chloride, bromide, methylsulfate, and the like. Mixtures of fabric softeners can be used, as can mixtures of anions.
Example VIII The detergent composition of Example VI is modified by using perfumed particles with friable coatings (melamine/urea/formaldehyde; 0.1/1/1.1 mole ratio; 300 micron size) with coating weights of 1% and 20%, respectively.
Example IX A detersive bar comoosition is prepared by gently (so as not to fracture the coating) admixing 2% by weight of the coated perfumed particles o Example I coating; all particles through 3n 150 micron sieve) into a 99.44% tallow soap mixture (Na salt) and formed into a bar in a pin die.
The compositions herein can also be used in combination with abrasives. As is well-known, abrasive cleaners-typically comprise to 90+% abrasive such as pumice, silica, calcium carbonate, and the like, Coated perfume particles used in such cleaners are ruptured, in-use, to release their perfume.

The composition of Example X is prepared by gently dryblending the ingredients.
It will be appreciated by the formulator that the weight (or thickness) of operable friable coatings can be adjusted according to the usage envisioned. For example, even relatively thick coatings will rupture and release their perfume particles under European machine washing conditions, which can involve wash times of many minutes, at high temperature and considerable agitation.
By contrast, USA machine washing conditions are much shorter, and milder, so less coating material should be used. For fabric softeners, agitation and agitation times are usually less than for washing.
