Studies conducted by some researchers in Portugal have resulted in the development of a new type of microcapsule that is filled with perfume and which can be embedded in your clothing. This will reduce the foul smell that most of us are familiar and disgusted with.

The microcapsules are made with formaldehyde, which is a cancer causing agent and an environmental hazard. So the researchers are trying to find out a new chemical that can be used for making the microcapsule that is non-hazardous and environment friendly.

They have zeroed in on polyurethane-urea, a type of environmentally-friendly plastic that is environment friendly and compatible with fabric. On testing the new chemical, it is found to be showing good performance in terms of prolonged fragrance.
