Abstract

The review provides an overview of research findings on microencapsulation for functional textile coatings. The Essential Oils of Clove oil, Sandalwood Oil and Cinnamon Oil is widely used as a raw material for fragrances with volatile active compounds at room temperature. It is easily affected by environmental changes and this problem can be solved by microencapsulation using coacervation methods to protect active compounds. The Essential Oils was encapsulated as coating material with 1,3,5-trichlorotriazine as the crosslinking agent. The purpose of this research was to study the effect of the composition of polymers and the mass of Essential oils on encapsulation characteristics. The resulting microcapsules were analysed using, fragrance loaded microcapsules, Anti-Bacterial Activity and digital microscope of SEM encapsulation efficiency. The result showed that microcapsules have an irregular shape with a textured surface.
