Definitions
- This invention relates to improvements in vapour emanation devices.
- vapour emanation device that incorporates a wick in contact with a reservoir of solvent containing an insecticide and possibly a fragrance (henceforth described as solution) at a first end and heated at a second end on the other side of a wick seal to vaporise the solution to the atmosphere, it is a common problem to firstly obtain a substantially consistent rate of emanation of the solution and secondly to attain the emanation rate in a target range. At relatively high emanation rates condensation can form on the outside of the device leading to consumers coming in contact with the solution.
- a vacuum can be created by the wicking or capillary action of the solution through the wick within the reservoir which provides an opposing force counteracting the flow of liquid out of the reservoir.
- the effect created by the vacuum in the reservoir slows or in some cases completely stops the flow of liquid out of the reservoir through the wick.
- Each emanation device has a release rate of solution that can be maintained. This rate is determined by operating the device and measuring the mass loss over time. The release rate is simply the rate at which the mass is lost. It is usually measured as milligrams per hour (mg/hr) or grams per hour (g/hr). _The area under a typical release rate curve 22, shown in Figure 1, is the actual mass lost.
- the release rate curve 22 shows initially that a large mass of the solution is lost and then approaches an equilibrium which can be described as a release rate limit 24 as time progresses. Therefore a lot of wastage of solution occurs in the period up to time ti. hi order to prevent this wastage, it is desirable to design the refill to have a substantially consistent or steady loss that approaches the release rate limit very quickly such as is exhibited by example curves 26 and 28. This will minimise the loss of solution and make the solution last a lot longer in use.
- the present invention seeks to overcome the above-mentioned disadvantages by providing an improved vapour emanation device that takes account of high variability in release rates of solution from vapour emanation devices.

- Figure 1 is a graph showing a plot of release rate of solution against time for a number of samples
- Figure 2 is a side view of a vapour emanation device according to an embodiment of the invention.
- Figures 3 A and 3B respectively show graphs of the weight loss against time and the instantaneous release rate of solution for a number of devices having variously sized apertures
- Figure 4 is a graph showing the release rate of solution from a number of devices using various wick materials.
- FIG. 2 is a side view of a vapour emanation device 2 having a reservoir 4 and a wick 6 sandwiched between a first layer 8 and a second layer 10.
- One end of the wick 6 protrudes into the reservoir 4 and is in contact with solution 12 so that a wicking action enables the solution 12 in the reservoir 4 to move along the wick to an area adjacent an aperture 14 so that the solution can be vaporised to the atmosphere under the action of a heater element or heater plate 16.
- An insulating layer 18 generally is used as a support for the device 2 so that it is easily insertable into an existing heater unit or device containing a heater.
- the insulating layer is also used to reduce the operating temperature of the device, which assists in slowing the emanation rate of the solution 12.
- the heater plate 16 may be in direct contact with the insulating layer 18, separated from insulating layer 18 by an intermediate layer or layers, or separated from insulating layer 18 by an air gap.
- a seal 20 extends transversely across the device 2 to provide adequate sealing around the wick 6 and each of the layers 8 and 10.
- the first layer 8 is generally made from plastics, metal foils, or laminates of these.
- the thickness of the first layer 8 is preferably between 20 microns and 1,000 microns. More preferably, the thickness of the first layer 8 is between 100 microns and 500 microns and most preferably in the order of 250 microns.
- the preferred embodiment uses amorphous polyethylene terephthalate (aPET) material in the order of 250 microns in thickness.
- aPET amorphous polyethylene terephthalate
- the second layer 10 is generally made from plastics, metal foils, cellulose, ceramic or a combination of these.
- the preferred embodiment is MYLAR ® (MYLAR is a registered trademark of Dupont Teijin Films U.S., Limited Partnership) which is heat sealed to the upper layer 8 and then glued to the insulating layer 18 that is in contact with the heater mat 16.
- MYLAR ® is generally a laminate of polyester with an aPET.
- the insulating layer 18 also provides protection to the second layer 10 from deliberate puncturing.
- the thickness of the second layer 10 is preferably between 10 microns and 1,000 microns. More preferably, the thickness of the second layer 10 is between 25 microns and 100 microns and most preferably in the order of 30 microns.
- This label may be made from a variety of plastic, foil or combination laminates with or without adhesive.
- the preferred embodiment involves the use of a peelable, heat sealable MYLAR ® material which is resistant to the solution and provides a liquid tight seal but can still be removed easily when required.
- the target range emanation rate of the solution 12 in reservoir 4 is between 0.1 mg/hr and 50 mg/hr. More preferably between 1 mg/hr and 20 mg/hr and most preferably between 3 mg/hr and 15 mg/hr. This target range and a substantially consistent emanation rate is achieved by a number of features of the device on their own or in combination.
- the layer serves four purposes in the device 2. Firstly it protects the reservoir 4 from puncture, secondly it reduces the temperature to an acceptable level for the stability of the MYLAR ® material of layer 10 (MYLAR ® is tolerant to 120°C), thirdly it reduces the temperature at the emanation aperture 14, thus controlling the overall emanation rate and fourthly it allows the device to be held firmly in the heating device.
- the insulating layer 18 may be a cellulose, plastic or ceramic material.
- the material thickness is between 0.1mm - 4mm, more preferably 1.0mm - 3.0mm, most preferably 2.0 - 2.8mm.
- the material is a pure cellulose mat material of thickness 2.8mm.
- the maximum thickness of the insulating material must be such that it is able to fit within the existing mat devices on the market throughout the world.
- the cross sectional area of the wick is adjusted by changing the thickness or width of the wick 6.
- the wick material may be made from a cellulose, plastic or ceramic material.
- the wick material width is between 0.1 mm and 22 mm, more preferably between 1 mm and 10 mm, most preferably between 5 mm and 10 mm. In the preferred embodiment the material is a pure cellulose material of width 8 to 10mm. A wider wick can transport more liquid than a correspondingly narrower wick.
- the maximum width of the wick is such that it must be able to fit within the constraints of existing mat devices.
- a further feature that assists in achieving the desired target range and control of the emanation rate is the seal 20 across the wick 6, which affects the emanation rate and the potential for a vacuum to form in the reservoir 4.
- the seal 20 is affected by the thickness of the wick and thus the wick thickness can determine the emanation rate.
- a tight seal 20 will cause a partial vacuum or pressure differential between the reservoir 8 and the atmosphere. The pressure in the reservoir 4 is reduced as liquid is removed from the reservoir 4 by the wicking action thus forming a partial vacuum. Too much vacuum will reduce the wicking rate and potentially may completely stop the wicking. Too little vacuum and the solution may leak out of the aperture 14 under gravity.
- the thickness of wick 6 used has been proven to affect seal 20 across wick 6.
- wick material is too thick it is unable to be adequately sealed between the upper and lower layers 8 and 10 of the refill (in a preferred embodiment 250micron aPET and 30 micron MYLAR ® film).
- a poor seal around the wick causes the liquid in the reservoir to flow out of the refill under the effect of gravity or simply by applying a pressure to the reservoir. This is unacceptable to the consumer as they will come in contact with the solution. It is thus desirable to have a wick thickness that gives a seal that can withstand slight pressure however is not sealed so much that the flow is restricted lower than the desired emanation rate for bite inhibition.
- the wick material thickness chosen is between 20 — 600 micron, more preferably 100 - 300 micron, most preferably 180-220 micron. In the preferred embodiment the material is a pure cellulose material of thickness approximately 200 micron.
- the size of aperture 14 is the size of aperture 14. It has been shown that by altering the size of aperture 14 at the emanation point, the release rate from the refill/reservoir can be correspondingly altered. A larger emanation aperture corresponds to a higher release rate.
- the aperture is between 0.1 mm and 20 mm in diameter, more preferably between 1 mm and 10 mm, most preferably between 2 mm and 5 mm.
- the aperture 14 may have any particular shape including but not limited to circular, square, rectangular or an irregular shape. In the preferred embodiment the aperture is circular with a diameter of 5mm.
- vapour pressure of a solvent is a function of temperature thus by controlling the temperature at the emanation aperture, the emanation rate can be controlled. It can thus be seen that the insulating material does affect the temperature at the emanation aperture and thus can control the release rate of the refill.
- the refills with a 5mm wide wick had an average emanation rate of 5.9mg/hr, whilst the refills with the 10mm wide wicks gave an emanation rate of lO.lmg/hr. It can thus be seen that the width of the wick can be used to control the emanation rate of the refill.
- the first layer 8 was made from 250-micron thick aPET.
- the reservoir 4 was thermoformed into a trapezoidal shape with a volume of l-2ml.
- An emanation aperture was cut into the upper layer using a circular hole punch.
- the second layer 10 was made from 30-micron thick MYLAR ® .
- the wick 6 was made from 200 micron thick, Whatman 4 filter paper. The wick dimensions were 10mm wide x 30mm long.
- the wick was heat sealed between the layers 8 and 10 using an impulse bag sealer with a 10mm wide seal.
- the upper aPET layer 8 was heat sealed to the MYLAR ® layer using a bag sealer.
- the insulating layer 18 consisted of a mosquito mat made from 100% cellulose.
- the mat dimensions were 35mm long x 22mm wide x 2.8mm thick.
- the upper materials were not glued to the insulating layer for this experiment.
- the solution 12 used was combination of Isopar V and M in a ratio of 50 to 50. No active was used in this experiment.
- the refills were filled with ⁇ 0.7g of solution using a calibrated pipette.
- the electrical devices used were a standard mosquito mat device from Brazil called a SBP device. Two of the refills where made with a 5mm emanation hole and two refills were made with a 3mm diameter hole.
- vapour active pyrethroids may be employed in the present invention. It will be understood that vapour active pyrethroids are those that are volatile at ambient temperature without heat or combustion.
- the volatile pyrethroids are preferably selected from the group consisting of metofiuthrin transfruthrin, empenthrin, methothrin, tefluthrin, d-allethrin, prallethrin, esbiothrin and fenfiuthrin.
- the vapour active pyrethroid is metofiuthrin or transfluthrin. Metofluthrin has high potency against mosquitoes.
- metofluthrin The chemical name of metofluthrin is 2 5 3 5 5,6-tetrafluro-4-(methoxymethyl)benzyl(EZ)-(lRS,3RS;lRS,3SR)-2,2-dimethyl- S-f ⁇ rop-l-enyOcyclopropanecarboxylate.
- Metofluthrin is available from Sumitomo Chemical Company.
- the chemical name of transfluthrin is [(2,3,5,6-tetrafTuoro- phenyl)methyl] IR, 3R-(2,2-dichlorethenyl)-2,2-dimethylcyclopropane-carboxylate.
- a "vapour emanation device" according to the present invention containing 10% transfluthrin as the active ingredient was compared with a Rodasol Liquid Emanating Device (LED) containing Esbiothrin 1.8%. The trial was carried out at Agrisearch laboratories Gosford, NSW as per their LEDs protocol which is summarised below.
- LED Rodasol Liquid Emanating Device
- the study was conducted in a ventilated test chamber (20 cubic metres) at a temperature of between 28.1°C and 29.2 °C.
- the relative humidity was ambient and ranged from 36% to 57%.
- Agrisearch LED protocol Treatments were placed on the floor in the test chamber, and were allowed to run for 5 minutes before all mosquitoes were brought into the chamber and released.
- the devices continued to operate during the assessments and were stopped at the completion of the test period.
- Tables 1 and 2 show percentage landing inhibition and percentage bite inhibition for each device used in the trial after 15 minutes exposure of the Aedes aegypti mosquitoes to each treatment. The results shown in the Table 2 are the means of 3 replicates.
- Table 2 also presents the different times at which the devices were tested. Some tests were conducted at the end of a cycle whilst other tests were conducted as the device was just starting. It is important that the device begins to work rapidly once switched on and also at the end of its normal operating cycle.
- Percentage landing inhibition refers to the number of mosquitoes which landed on the subject in the absence of any treatment (untreated control), minus the number of mosquitoes which landed on the subject in the presence of a treatment, divided by the number of mosquitoes which landed on the subject in the absence of any treatment, expressed as a percentage. Landing inhibition was assessed between 10 to 15 minutes of the exposure of the Aedes aegypti mosquitoes to each vapour emanating device treatment.
- Percentage bite inhibition refers to the number of mosquitoes which probed or attempted to bite the subject in the absence of any treatment (untreated control), minus the number of mosquitoes which attempted to bite the subject in the presence of a treatment, divided by the number of mosquitoes which attempted to bite the subject in the absence of any treatment, expressed as a percentage. It will be appreciated that, as mosquitoes must first land before attempting to bite, of necessity, percentage bite inhibition will always be higher than or equal to percentage landing inhibition. Bite inhibition was assessed from 10 to 15 minutes of the exposure of the Aedes aegypti mosquitoes to each treatment. From tables 1 and 2 it can be seen that the vapour emanating device according to the current invention gave results for landing inhibition and bite inhibition that were statistically the same as that of a liquid emanating device currently on the market.
- Table 1 Percentage Landing Inhibition of Aedes aegypti mosquitoes after 15 minutes exposure to current invention and compared to liquid emanating device currently on the market.
- Table 2 Percentage Bite Inhibition of Aedes aegypti mosquitoes after 15 minutes exposure to current invention and compared to liquid emanating device currently on the market.
