All encapsulating polymers I have reviewed in the lab surround the soil, release from the fiber, get removed overtime through vacuuming helping the carpet stay clean longer. We have 2 distinct polymers in Encapuclean Green DS with different time-release characteristics. Is there a chance before I retire that we can all agree that a crystal and film former both work? If a crystal form really worked better, don't you think everyone would have switched to it after 14 years of debate. If a film former really worked better, don't you think everyone would have switched to it by now. The form of the polymer is really irrelevant and the determining factor for how well a encapsulate performs is the concentration (weight of solids) of the formula and the proper balance between the cleaning component and the polymer component.
