Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of toy manufacturing technology, and in particular to a triboelectric controlled-release fragrance toy based on fragrance microcapsules and its preparation method. Background Technology
[0002] As a refined category of plastic toys, trendy toys are highly favored by teenagers and collectors due to their accurate model reproduction and rich artistic expression. However, the decorative effects of existing trendy toy products are mostly focused on the visual level, enhancing aesthetics through color spraying and detailed engraving. Their functionality is relatively limited, lacking tactile and olfactory interactive experiences, making it difficult to meet consumers' diverse needs for product fun and immersive experiences.
[0003] Some toy manufacturers have attempted to add fragrance to trendy toys to enhance their appeal, but they all use traditional fragrance addition methods. These methods have several drawbacks, such as extremely short-lasting fragrance, which can easily trigger allergic reactions when in contact with consumers' skin. Furthermore, fragrance molecules are easily affected by external environmental factors and can oxidize and deteriorate under the influence of oxygen and humidity. This can not only cause the fragrance to change its taste but may also produce harmful substances, affecting the safety of product use.
[0004] Microencapsulation technology, as a mature functional material preparation technology, has been widely used in food, daily chemicals, and pharmaceuticals. This technology encapsulates a liquid core material with a polymer wall material to form a microcapsule structure, effectively isolating the core material from the external environment, reducing volatilization and deterioration, and achieving a controllable "externally triggered release" effect. In the food industry, flavor substances encapsulated using microencapsulation technology can have a longer fragrance retention time; in the daily chemicals industry, microcapsule fragrance products can release fragrance on demand through friction, pressing, etc. However, there is currently no technical solution to combine microencapsulation technology with trendy toys. The main reason is that trendy toys have extremely high requirements for appearance, texture, and shape integrity. If the particle size and coating thickness of conventional microcapsule materials are not properly controlled, it will damage the delicate shape and surface smoothness of the toys. Furthermore, trendy toys are used in everyday touch and friction scenarios, requiring the microcapsule wall material to precisely rupture and release fragrance within a specific pressure range (finger friction pressure), and the coating must have good adhesion and abrasion resistance to prevent peeling and affecting the product's appearance. These technical challenges prevent microencapsulation technology from being directly applied to trendy toys.
[0005] Therefore, developing a friction-controlled fragrance-releasing trendy toy based on fragrance microcapsules and its preparation method that can achieve controlled fragrance release, long-lasting fragrance, safe use, and ensure the integrity of the shape and the texture of the appearance is of great practical significance.

This effect of "functional coating not deteriorating the appearance, but enhancing the expressiveness of details" exceeds expectations and solves the industry problem of compatibility between functional materials and refined toy shapes.
[0024] (2) The friction-controlled fragrance release trendy toy based on fragrance microcapsules disclosed in this invention uses microcapsules prepared with customized polymer wall materials (gelatin-gum arabic composite wall materials, etc.). The microcapsules can be precisely broken and release fragrance under normal friction pressure of the fingers, while remaining closed when touched lightly in daily life, thus achieving precise triggering of "on-demand fragrance release". At the same time, the isolation and protection effect of the wall material protects the fragrance core material from the influence of oxygen and humidity, and the fragrance always remains pure and does not deteriorate, achieving a dual breakthrough of "controllable fragrance release" and "long-lasting fragrance", greatly improving the continuity of the user experience.
[0025] (3) The friction-controlled release fragrance trendy toy based on fragrance microcapsules disclosed in this invention completely avoids direct contact between the fragrance and human skin by encapsulating the fragrance core material with the microcapsule wall material. It has been tested according to GB 6675 toy safety standard and has no skin irritation. At the same time, the adhesion between the texture-adaptive primer layer and the trendy toy body has been tested and can withstand more than 500 repeated rubbings without falling off. The bonding strength between the fragrance microcapsule coating and the primer layer is also significantly better than that of conventional coatings. The use of food-grade diluents and environmentally friendly raw materials makes the product both skin-safe and environmentally friendly, solving the industry pain point of "safety and durability cannot be achieved at the same time" in functional toys.
[0026] (4) The friction-controlled release fragrance trendy toy based on fragrance microcapsules disclosed in this invention constructs an immersive interactive experience integrating "visual-tactile-olfactory" through a friction-triggered olfactory feedback design. Furthermore, the compounding scheme of various fragrance core materials can realize personalized fragrance customization, opening up the scenario-based application space of trendy toy products. At the same time, the intelligent technologies such as plasma pretreatment and visual recognition precision spraying incorporated into its manufacturing process not only improve product consistency but also provide a replicable technical paradigm for the functional upgrading of the trendy toy industry, promoting the industry's transformation from "refined shape" to "intelligent function and diversified experience".
[0027] (5) The friction-controlled release fragrance trendy toy based on fragrance microcapsules disclosed in this invention achieves controlled release of fragrance by coating specific parts of the trendy toy body with a fragrance microcapsule coating and utilizing the frictional rupture characteristics of the microcapsule wall material. This combines visual and olfactory experiences, significantly enhancing the fun and interactivity of the trendy toy product, meeting consumers' demand for immersive experiences, and strengthening the product's market competitiveness. By isolating the liquid fragrance core material from the outside world through the polymer wall material, the volatilization and deterioration of the fragrance are effectively avoided, and the fragrance retention time is extended. At the same time, the isolation effect of the wall material reduces the risk of direct contact between the fragrance and the human body. Combined with environmentally friendly trendy toy body materials and food-grade fragrance, the safety of the product is further improved. The fragrance microcapsule coating can be precisely sprayed on specific friction parts of the trendy toy, and the coating thickness and particle size are suitable, without damaging the original shape details and appearance texture of the trendy toy. At the same time, different types of liquid fragrance core materials can be selected according to the theme style of the trendy toy, adapting to diverse product design needs. It has a wide range of applications and strong practicality and promotional value. Detailed Implementation

[0054] To further illustrate the beneficial technical effects of the friction-controlled release fragrance toy based on fragrance microcapsules involved in the embodiments of the present invention, relevant performance tests were conducted on the friction-controlled release fragrance toy based on fragrance microcapsules involved in Example 5 and Comparative Examples 1-4. The test results are shown in Table 1, and the test methods are as follows: (1) Fragrance retention time test: The samples of each case were placed in a constant temperature and humidity environment of 25℃ and 50% relative humidity, and rubbed regularly (once a week, 10N pressure for 10 times). The electronic nose detection method (detecting the concentration of fragrance characteristic components) was used. The samples were tested once a day, and the time when the concentration of the electronic nose detected characteristic components of the sample dropped to the detection limit was recorded as the fragrance retention time.
[0055] (2) Friction release test: A tension gauge was used to simulate the friction pressure of a finger. A specific part of the sample was rubbed 10 times with a pressure of 10N (friction speed 1 time / second). The concentration of fragrance characteristic components in the environment after friction was detected by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) and used as the friction release amount.
[0056] (3) Skin irritation test: 30 healthy subjects (15 males and 15 females, aged 18-45 years) were selected. The coated part of the sample was in contact with the skin on the inner side of the subject's forearm for 24 hours. The irritation reaction such as erythema, edema, and itching was observed at the contact site.
[0057] (4) Coating adhesion test: Refer to GB / T 9286-1998 "Cross-cut test of paint and varnish film", use a cross-cut tester to cut 10×10 1mm² squares on the sample coating surface, with the cross-cut depth reaching the surface of the toy body. Then apply 3M tape and quickly peel it off, observe the peeling of the coating in the squares. Adhesion grade standard: Grade 1 = no peeling, Grade 2 = peeling area ≤5%, Grade 3 = peeling area 5%-15%, Grade 4 = peeling area 15%-35%, Grade 5 = peeling area >35%.
[0058] (5) Abrasion resistance test: Using an abrasion tester, the coating part of the sample is subjected to 500 reciprocating frictions under a 500g load (the friction medium is cotton cloth, and the friction speed is 50 times / minute). After friction, the integrity of the coating is observed and whether peeling or cracking occurs is recorded.

Slight cracking, no peeling No cracks, slight wear on the edges Partial detachment As shown in Table 1, the friction-controlled fragrance release toys of Example 5 (containing gelatin-gum arabic composite wall material, texture-matching primer layer, and plasma pretreatment) have a fragrance retention time of up to 100 days, a friction fragrance release concentration of 3.8 mg / m³, a coating adhesion of Grade 1, and remain intact after 500 rubs without peeling off. All samples showed no skin irritation. In contrast, Comparative Example 1 (without primer layer) had a fragrance retention time of only 45 days and a large area of the coating peeled off. Comparative Examples 2-3 (single gelatin / gum arabic wall material) had a fragrance retention time of 65-70 days and a fragrance release concentration of 2.5-2.9 mg / m³. Comparative Example 4 (without plasma pretreatment) had a fragrance retention time of 85 days and a partial coating peeling off. This fully demonstrates that the synergistic effect of the composite wall material, primer layer, and plasma pretreatment can significantly improve the fragrance retention time, friction fragrance release effect, coating adhesion, and abrasion resistance of the toys.
