Abstract

The quality of air fresheners with low cost production can be improved by using a carrier matrix such as synthetic zeolite to increase the long-lasting properties of fragrance product by encapsulation technique. The zeolite A is considerdas a safe core fragrance carrier matrix to be able to release volatile fragrance from their pores when exposed to atmospheric humidity at room temperature. Zeolite A was synthesized from natural kaolin and was formed into tube pellets with bentonite (20 wt.%) as binder to produce zeolite A-bentonite (ZAB) cylindrical pellets composite and used as a fragrance carrier matrix with a rose essential oil (Rose damascena Mill.) as parfume model. The fresh bentonite can also adsorb the rose essential oil with adsorption capacity of 1.745 g/g bentonite (74.5%). Effects of chemical activation on zeolite-A using acid (HCl) of 0.1 M and base (NaOH) of 0.1 M were studied. The ZAB tube pelletes were found to have high adsorption efficiencies of rose essential oil. ZAB4 has the highest efficiency and was used for regeneration test studies that was carried out over 10 cycles using HCl and NaOH, where the adsorption efficiency was 94.5 and 75.4%, respectively. The activated ZAB4 composite using HCl has a long life time until more than 5 weeks and more than 10 regeneration cycles. This fragrance carrier matrix based on ZAB has significant potential for extended carrier fragrance system.

Kualiti penyegar udara dengan pengeluaran kos rendah boleh dipertingkatkan menggunakan matriks pembawa seperti zeolit ​​sintetik untuk meningkatkan sifat tahan lama produk wangian melalui teknik enkapsulasi. Zeolit ​​A dianggap sebagai matriks pembawa wangian teras yang selamat untuk dapat mengeluarkan wangian yang tidak menentu dari liang-liangnya apabila terdedah kepada kelembapan atmosfera pada suhu bilik. Zeolit ​​A telah disintesis daripada kaolin semula jadi dan telah dibentuk menjadi pelet tiub dengan bentonit (20 wt.%) sebagai pengikat untuk menghasilkan komposit pelet silinder zeolit ​​A-bentonit (ZAB) dan digunakan sebagai matriks pembawa wangian dengan minyak pati mawar (Rose damascena Mill.) sebagai model minyak wangi. Bentonit segar juga boleh menyerap minyak pati mawar dengan kapasiti penjerapan 1,745 g/g bentonit (74,5%). Kesan pengaktifan kimia ke atas zeolit-A menggunakan asid (HCl) 0,1 M dan bes (NaOH) 0.1 M telah dikaji. Pelet tiub ZAB didapati mempunyai kecekapan tinggi penjerapan minyak pati mawar. ZAB4 mempunyai kecekapan tertinggi dan digunakan untuk kajian ujian penjanaan semula yang telah dijalankan selama 10 kitaran menggunakan HCl dan NaOH dengan kecekapan penjerapan adalah 94,5 dan 75,4%. Komposit ZAB4 yang diaktifkan menggunakan HCl mempunyai jangka hayat yang panjang sehingga lebih daripada 5 minggu dan lebih daripada 10 kitaran penjanaan semula. Matriks pembawa wangian berasaskan ZAB ini mempunyai potensi besar untuk sistem wangian pembawa lanjutan.
