Description
REPELLENT PREPARATIONS Technical Field This invention relates to repellent preparations and in particular to preparations for use in repelling living organisms including marine organisms. The invention also relates to preparations which are suitable for use as preservatives. Background Art Timbers particularly timbers exposed to harsh environmental conditions are usually treated to resist attach by wood eating organisms. A common method of preserving timbers to prevent attack: is to impregnate the timbers in an arsenic compound in a vacuum application process. Whilst arsenic impregnated timbers have good resistance to attack, the use of arsenic as a preservative is not environmentally acceptable. Further a particular difficulty is encountered when it is necessary to dispose of arsenic treated timbers. Hulls of marine craft are usually treated with an antifouliπg paint which is often copper based. Paints of this type are also not envirorimentalry acceptable in that they are usually sacrificial and tend to pollute the waterways in which the marine craft is operating. There is thus a necessity for a method and means for treating timbers as well in hulls of marine craft in a manner which will resist attack by living organisms and which is environmentally friendly. It would be desirable to use a product which is naturally occurring. Historically, it has been found that extracts of the capsicum plant which primarily constitute capsaicin (S-methly-N-vaiiillyϊ-noneamϊde) have a number of beneficial properties, one property being as a repellent for insects such as termites in a wood coating or impregnation application and as a marine organism repellent in a marine coating applications. Various means have been proposed fo extracting capsaicin for use in this application such as that disclosed in US patent No. 6,465,022 in which a method of providing an essential oil extract of capsicum from capsicum plants is described. Various applications of capsaicin have also been disclosed in the prior art. For example, US patent No. 5,985.010 discloses an animal repellent comprising a mixture of capsicum and a liquid organic solvent which are bonded or cross-linked with polymeric substance. The repellent disclosed in this documents is primarily used as a
rodent repellent. US patent No. 6,523,298 discloses a capsicum-based pesticide which comprises an aqueous formulation containing capsicum. Whilst the compositions of the prior art are suitable for limited applications, they are not particularly suited for effective wood or fastener preservation applications or for application as anti-fouling in a marine environment. Summary of the Invention The present invention aims to provide preparations which have improved repellant properties as compared to preparations of the prior art or which at least provide an alternative to the preparations of the prior art. In particular, the present invention aims to provide repellent preparations which are particularly suitable for use in waterproofing, water-resisting and preserving applications particularly of timber and fasteners. The present invention in a further aspect aims to provide preparations which are particularly suitable for use as a marine anti-fouling. Other objects and advantages of the invention will become apparent from the following description. The present invention thus provides in one aspect a preparation for repelling living organisms said preparation comprising in combination capsaicin and a natural or synthetic wax. The term living organisms as used herein includes animals such as rodents, including mice and racks, insects such as termites, wood borers, ants, spiders and other pests, as well as marine organisms including borers, barnacles and shell fish. Preferably, the preparation contains the following: Capsaicin present in 1 to 50% by volume of capsicum oleoresin Natural or Synthetic wax 5 to 90% by volume A namral wax for use in th preparation may be selected from a wax from a plant or animal source, a mineral wax or a wax derived form a natural occurring substance or liquid. Typical namral waxes derived from plants or animals comprise wool wax or lanolin, bees wax, or carnauba wax. A typical mineral wax comprises ontan wax derived from lignite. A wax derived from a naturally occurring substance comprises paraffin wax which is a by-product of petroleum. The natural wax may comprise one or a combination of two or more of the above namral waxes A synthetic wax for use in the preparation may comprise a wax produced primarily from ethylene.

Detailed Description of the Preferred Embodiments In accordance with a preferred embodiment of the invention, a repellent preparation contains capsaicin and lanolin. Whilst reference in the eπιrκ)diιnents described below is made to lanolin, lanolin may be substituted by other waxes or waxlike material having similar water resistant and adhering properties. Capsaicin for use in the preparation is extracted from capsaicinoids contained in Habanero peppers which have comparatively elevated capsaicinoid content. The capsaicin however may be extracted from any other pepper or capsicum species.
Capsaicin for use in the preparation is provided in capsicum oleoresin. Capsicum oleoresin may either be used in the preparation to provide the required capsaicin
content in a liquid form or a powder or granular form. Preferably, the preparation comprises a combination of the following: Capsicum Oleoresin (containing capsaicin) 1 to 50% by volume Lanolin 5 to 90% by volume Lanolin as used in the preparation is also known as wool fat or grease. Lanolin however may be present in the preparation in the form of any lanolin-based product.
For effective blending with capsaicin, however, the lanolin is liquefied. The preparation may be prepared by any Suitable combining method including heating, blending and homogenizing processes. It has been found that the combination of lanolin and capsaicin act in synergy to provide a preparation which has the beneficial repellent properties of capsaicin and the beneficial adhering, protecting and water proofing properties of lanolin. Such properties make the preparation suited to a wide range of applications. For application as a coating or preservative, the preparation also includes a solvent. The solvent is present in the preparation in 5 to 90 % by volume.
