ODOR CONTROL MATERIAL PREPARED BY EXTRUSION COMPRISING PARTICLES ENCAPSULATED IN A POLYMERIC MATRIX

摘要

The present invention relates to an odour control material consisting of a water-insoluble particulate odour control agent and a thermoplastic water-soluble carrier matrix encapsulating the odour control agent. The carrier matrix dissolves when in contact with an aqueous solution, such as urine and the odour control material is obtained by means of thermoforming. The invention relates also to a method for the preparation of the odour control material and the use of the odour control material in absorbent products. The present odour control material minimizes dusting problems caused by particulate odour control agents in production processes.
