CONTROLLED, SUSTAINED RELEASE PARTICLES FOR TREATING SEEDS AND PLANTS
The invention relates to active particles, including core-shell particles, having low burst, controllable, sustained release which are useful for coating seeds. The active particles can also be used in sprayable and dry formulations for treating soil or plants. The particulate coating can also contain inert organic or inorganic material. The invention also relates to methods for preparing the active particles. The methods include: adding additional material to core particles to form a shell, removing active ingredient from a core surface to create an active-depleted shell, and crosslinking the outer layers of a core to form a shell.

Systems and methods for delivering release materials, for example drugs and other bioactive materials. Crystalline polymeric systems, referred to as CYC carriers, are associated with the release materials, through chemical bonding or through physical association. The crystallinity of the CYC carriers results from the presence of crystallizable side chains, for example long chain n-alkyl moieties, which results in relatively low and sharp melting temperatures. One class of CYC carriers, referred to as CYSC polymers, have a majority of the crystallizable side chains pendant from the polymer backbone. Another class of CYC carriers referred to as ECC polymers, have a majority of the crystallizable side chains attached to terminal units of the polymer backbone. The ECC polymers can for example be obtained by modification of PLGA polymers. The CYC carriers in another class of non-polymeric. Some CYC carriers, referred to as CYC assemblies, have enhanced crystallinity as a result of the physical association of crystallizable moieties which are present in different types of molecule, for example between a polymer containing crystallizable moieties and a monomer containing crystallizable moieties. For some uses, particularly the delivery of drugs, a bioerodable CYC carrier is preferably used.

COMPOSITIONS AND METHODS FOR DELIVERY OF MATERIALS
Compositions for delivering release materials, for example drugs, agricultural materials, other bioactive materials, cosmetic materials, organic or inorganic compounds which take part in or catalyse a chemical reaction, a fragrance-emitting material for a vaporizer, or a lubricating material. The release material is associated with a crystalline carrier. The carrier may be a crystalline polymer containing a plurality of crystalline groups or a crystalline monomer which contains a single crystalline group, the crystalline group preferably comprising a straight chain polymethylene radical containing at least 16 carbon atoms. Some of the carriers are obtained by modifying hyaluronic acid, collagen, gelatin, a polysaccharide, a carbohydrate or cyclodextran. The release material may contain a similar crystalline group, for example may be an active compound which has been modified to introduce a crystalline group.
Compositions for the controlled delivery of active ingredients, for example, drugs, cosmetic materials, and agricultural materials. The compositions include a multiplicity of particles, each of the particles comprising (1) a microstructure comprising a semicrystalline polymer which has a peak melting temperature, Tp, of at least 20°C, and (2) the active ingredient. The microstructure comprises (i) crystalline domains of the semicrystalline polymer, the crystalline domains being separate from each other, and (ii) amorphous domains of the semicrystalline polymer, the amorphous domains providing a multiplicity of tortuous paths between the crystalline domains. At least part of the active ingredient is present in the amorphous domains. One of many valuable uses for the compositions is to provide a coating on a seed, for example a coating containing one or more of an insecticide, a fungicide, a nutrient, a biotic, a growth regulator and an herbicide.
Compositions for delivering agricultural active ingredients, for example for coating seeds. The active ingredient is associated with a crystalline carrier, for example a crystalline polymer. Optionally, the composition includes an amphiphilic additive, which influences the characteristics of the crystalline polymer and the delivery will of the active ingredient.
A thermochromic indicator includes a coating on the substrate. The coating comprising a solid crystalline particles having a melting point of 0-130° C. At temperatures below the melting point, the coating is opaque. At temperatures above the melting point, the coating becomes translucent. The change in opacity can be reversible or irreversible.
