Abstract
Abstract A method of encapsulating organic liquids for controlled volatilization and release is described, which comprises in one embodiment charging a fine silica into a mixing container which does not inflict shearing force to the contents and adding the liquid (having a viscosity of 50 centipoise or less at 25° C.) onto and mixing with the fine silica in the mixing container.

Claim 1
Independent Claim
90 words
A method of encapsulating a volatile organic liquid having a viscosity of 50 centipoise or less at 25° C., with particles of amorphous silica, which comprises; providing particles of said silica in a mixing vessel; adding said liquid to the particles; and mixing the silica and the liquid under non-shearing conditions; said silica having an average particle size of less than 300 micron and a micropore distribution characterized by 50% of the integrated volume of said micropore being distributed to the micropores having a radius of up to 1000 Angstroms.
