Product Information
ChronoSpheres™ possess some unique characteristics that bring entrapment technology into
the 21st Century. Unlike other entrapment technologies, the micrometric system ChronoSphere™
does not release its load in response to pressure, allowing for true controlled release. The load is
released through diffusion or solvent extraction. This mechanism of release insures that Materials are delivered in a controlled manner, preventing possible irritation caused by the sudden release of the active.
ChronoSpheres™ are heat stable. They may be utilized at any temperature that will not degrade or
volatilize the active incorporated into the system. It is demonstrated that the micromatrix, with the incorporated active, form an eutectic mixture, capable of actually increasing the heat stability of the active.
The resistance to pressure demonstrated by ChronoSpheres™ makes them ideal for incorporation
into products that must be heavily processed such as decorative cosmetics. Samples retain
integrity after passing through a three roller mill.
