Modular delivery platform for volatile fragrance oils

Technology
In development
Company

A cutting-edge modular topical delivery platform utilizing biodegradable polymeric nanoencapsulation to enhance the stability and controlled release of volatile fragrance and active oils.

Overview

Our modular delivery platform leverages biodegradable polymeric nanoencapsulation to provide a controlled release system for volatile fragrance and active oils. By incorporating oils such as green tea, peppermint, jasmine, and eucalyptus into biopolymer matrices, our system ensures sustained scent stability and gradual diffusion post-application. This technology addresses common industry challenges like rapid evaporation and phase separation, offering extended aroma duration and improved biological performance.

Technical specifications

Key features:

  • Biopolymer matrices and surfactant-stabilized nanocarriers for oil encapsulation
  • Compatibility with multiple application formats: ointments, creams, roll-ons, sticks, and sprays
  • Enhanced stability, reducing rapid evaporation and maintaining scent integrity
  • Controlled diffusion enabled by optimized carrier-vehicle interactions
  • Supports high oil loading (>10%) without phase separation
Technology readiness level

The technology is currently at TRL 4, having achieved proof of concept in a laboratory setting with successful sustained release demonstrated in chitosan-based nanoparticles and polymeric systems. Future validation plans include optimizing prototypes and conducting stability and performance testing to advance readiness for commercial deployment.
