This work reports on the application of solar-activated photocatalytic thin films thatallow the controlled-release of volatile agents (e.g., insecticides, repellents) from the interior ofadsorbed polymeric microcapsules. In order to standardize the tests,a quantification of theinherent controlled-release of a particular volatile agent is determined by gas chromatographycoupled to mass spectroscopy, so that an application can be offered to a wide range of supportsfrom various industrial sectors, such as in textiles (clothing, curtains, mosquito nets). Thistechnology takes advantage of the established photocatalytic property of titanium dioxide(TiO2) for the use as an active surface/site to promote the controlled-release of a specific vapor(volatile agentfrom within the aforementioned microcapsules.Portuguese FCT COMPETE scientificprograms, with references NANO/NTec-CA/0046/2007 and PTDC/CTM-NAN/119979/201
