NANOXEM
Microencapsulation Solutions for the Textile Industry
Nanoxem provides functional microcapsules developed for application in textile materials. Our microencapsulation technology enables the encapsulation and protection of different active ingredients, supporting their controlled release during product use.
Photochromic Microcapsules for Textiles
Nanoxem's photochromic technology uses pigments that change color when exposed to ultraviolet (UV) radiation. When UV exposure is removed, the system returns to its original state.
This technology can be incorporated into textile materials to create light-responsive visual effects
Benefits
UV Protection
Additional Function: Beyond the aesthetic appeal, photochromic textiles can help protect the skin against UV rays, as some materials can block or absorb ultraviolet radiation when changing color.
Easy of Integration
Simple Processing: Photochromic technology can be incorporated into existing textile manufacturing processes without requiring significant adaptations, making it a practical and efficient solution for the industry.
Dynamic Aesthetics
Color Change: Photochromic fabrics offer an interactive visual effect, changing color when exposed to sunlight or UV radiation. This allows for the creation of clothing and accessories that react to the environment, providing an innovative and dynamic look.
Photo UVP/UVS: reversible dyes that react to UV radiation with vibrant colors and return to their original shade when exposed to light-blocking conditions. Encapsulated for enhanced stability, they ensure long-lasting performance.
PHOTO UVP/UVS
Thermochromic Microcapsules for Textiles
Nanoxem's thermochromic technology for textile applications uses pigments that change color in response to temperature variations. These thermochromic pigments are designed to produce a visible color change when exposed to specific temperature variations.
Thermochromic systems can be reversible, returning to their original color when the temperature returns to the defined range, or irreversible, producing a permanent color change after reaching a specific temperature threshold.
Benefits
Innovative Design
It allows the creation of products with a unique appearance, which change color with temperature, attracting consumers looking for innovation and style.
Interactivity
Thermochromic products offer an immersive user experience, where the color of the fabric responds to environmental conditions or direct user interaction.
Additional Functionality
In addition to the aesthetic appeal, the color change can indicate temperature changes, which can be useful in work environments or situations where temperature perception is crucial.
Durability and Quality
Thermochromic dyes are formulated to withstand multiple temperature changes and washing cycles, ensuring the effect lasts over time.
Microcapsules for Thermal Comfort – ThermoBall
ThermoBall is a microencapsulation solution containing phase-change material (PCM). The microcapsules absorb heat as temperature increases and gradually release heat as temperature decreases.
When applied to textile materials, ThermoBall microcapsules respond to changes in environmental or body temperature, contributing to the thermal comfort of the finished product.
Benefits
Cold Weather Clothing
ThermoBall can be incorporated into fabrics used to manufacture jackets, vests, sportswear, bedding and other textile products where enhanced thermal comfort is desired.
Versatility in Design
The technology can be integrated into a wide range of textile products, from technical clothing for winter sports to casual clothing that requires comfort and thermal protection.
Sustainability
We are committed to sustainability, using recyclable materials in our technology, minimizing environmental impact without compromising product quality.
User Experience
In addition to technical performance, it provides a superior user experience, with adaptable thermal comfort and materials that are pleasant to the touch.
Fragrance Microcapsules for Textiles – AromaBall
Aromatic and functional microcapsules are products developed through the process of encapsulating liposoluble liquid aromas and functional compounds to enhance fragrance durability.
By solidifying the liquid aroma, it can be applied in various ways as needed. These aromatic and functional oils, when microencapsulated, extend the lifespan of the aroma and retain their functional properties, making them widely used in textiles, paper, plastics, paints, and other materials. AromaBall can be used by textile manufacturers looking to incorporate long-lasting fragrance into their products through controlled fragrance release.
For textile applications, the microcapsules can be integrated into conventional manufacturing or finishing processes. Particle size, fragrance durability, and other characteristics can be adjusted according to the desired application.
Benefits
Fragrance Durability
Long-lasting: AromaBall provides gradual release of fragrance, ensuring that the scent lasts for an extended period, even after multiple washes.
Uniformity and Distribution of Fragrance
Consistent Application: AromaBall technology ensures an even distribution of fragrance on the fabric, preventing areas of concentration or lack of scent.
Simple Application Process
Ease of Use: The application of AromaBall in textiles is simple and can be easily integrated into existing manufacturing processes.
Efficiency in Fragrance Use
Fragrance Efficiency: Microencapsulation allows for the efficient use of fragrances, reducing the amount needed and maximizing the aroma's effect.
BioBall
BioBall uses microencapsulation technology to incorporate functional active ingredients into textile materials. Different ingredients, such as fragrances, antimicrobial agents, and cosmetic actives, can be encapsulated and applied during textile manufacturing or finishing processes.
The microcapsules are designed to provide controlled and prolonged release of the active ingredients according to the application requirements.
How the Technology Works
+ Microencapsulation: Active ingredients, such as fragrances, antimicrobial agents, or moisturizers, are encapsulated in tiny microcapsules. These capsules are then applied to fabrics during the manufacturing or finishing process.
+Gradual Release: The microcapsules are designed to release their contents in a controlled and prolonged manner, ensuring that the active ingredients are released slowly over time, providing continuous benefits to the user.
+ Resistance to Wear and Washing: Microcapsules are formulated to resist wear and washing, ensuring that the active benefits remain even after repeated use and cleaning.
