- the capsules of MCP 7 comprise an MCP 71, for example an organic MCP 71 with a phase transition between 55 and 75 ° C., more particularly 70 ° C., covered with a protective layer 72 of polymeric material.
- MCP 7 capsule is well known to those skilled in the art.
- the MCP 71 used may in particular be an extruded or polymerized MCP 71, of random shape, for example of spherical, half-spherical or amorphous form, covered with a protective layer 72 of polymeric material.
