An oil-in-water emulsion that is environmentally friendly and also exhibits antimicrobial activity is provided. More specifically, the oil phase of the emulsion includes a botanical oil derived from a plant (e.g., thymol, carvacrol, etc.). Because the botanical oil tends to leach out of the emulsion during storage and before it is used in the desired application, a water-dispersible polymer is also employed in the aqueous phase of the emulsion to enhance long term stability of the oil and, in turn, antimicrobial efficacy. Without intending to be limited by theory, it is believed that the water-dispersible polymer can effectively encapsulate the botanical oil within the emulsion and inhibit its premature release. Once the emulsion is formed, water can then be removed so that it becomes a substantially anhydrous concentrate. In this manner, the water-dispersible polymer will not generally disperse before use and prematurely release the botanical oil. When it is desired, moisture may simply be re-applied to the concentrate to disperse the polymer and activate the release of the botanical oil. Of course, to provide the optimum degree of biocompatibility, the water-dispersible polymer is also a “biopolymer” that is biodegradable and / or renewable.

The invention further provides a preparation method of the carvacrol slow release preservative. The carvacrol slow release preservative, provided by the invention, is safe and environmentally friendly, can prolong the refreshing time of berries by more than 30% compared with a common low-temperature storage method, and effectively solves the problems that carvacrol liquid is inconvenient to use, and has greater smell and short action time during the storage process of berries. The preparation method is simple and easy to operate.

The invention discloses mixed type feed additive plant essential oil particles. The mixed type feed additive is prepared from the following components in parts by mass: 2 to 6 parts of thymol, 5 to 15 parts of carvacrol, 3 to 9 parts of cinnamic aldehyde, 10 to 15 parts of free-flowing agent, and 55 to 80 parts of carriers. The invention also discloses a preparation method of the plant essential oil particles. By optimizing the proportion of components of the mixed type feed additive plant essential oil particles, a good in-vitro antimicrobial effect can be obtained. By using one or more of stearic acid, glyceryl monostearate, sodium monostearyl lactate and calcium monostearyl lactate as main carriers and then combining with a preparation process of the free-flowing agent, the plant essential oil and adjuvants are tightly combined and mutually inosculated, so that the contact between the plant essential oil and the air is reduced, and the stability of storage, transportation and using process of the essential oil can be improved.

A wipe that contains a fibrous web on which is coated an antimicrobial composition is provided. The composition includes a botanical oil derived from a plant (e.g., thymol, carvacrol, etc.). Because the botanical oil is volatile and tends to evaporate and lose efficacy during storage and prior to use, a protein is also employed in the composition to enhance long term stability of the oil and, in turn, its antimicrobial efficacy. The protein is “film-forming” in the sense that it tends to form a substantially continuous film when coated onto a surface of the fibrous web. Because such proteins are typically stiff and brittle in nature, a continuous film would restrict the ability of the fibers to move and bend, thereby reducing web flexibility and drape. Thus, it is typically desired that the antimicrobial composition form a discontinuous coating on the fibrous web. In this regard, the present inventors have surprisingly discovered that the addition of an organopolysiloxane can help achieve such a discontinuous coating without adversely impacting the ability of the protein to stabilize the botanical oil. The organopolysiloxane may also enhance the softness and overall handfeel of the wipe.

Preparation method 1:stirring and mixing the compound essential oil and anhydrous alcohol or propylene glycol in the stainless steel reaction kettle according to a weight ratio, with the addition of polyoxyethylene castor oil emulsifiers, thereby obtaining a feed additive containing liquid mint-scented compound essential oil. Preparation method 2: stirring and mixing the compound essential oil and dry starch in a high-speed mixer according to a weight ratio, thereby obtaining a feed additive containing solid mint-scented compound essential oil. Preparation method 3: stirring and mixing the compound essential oiland beta-cyclodextrin or soluble starch in the high-speed mixer according to a weight ratio, with the addition of Tween-80 emulsifiers, thereby obtaining a feed additive containing water-soluble mint-scented compound essential oil.
