Abstract
In a process for producing microcapsules containing hydrophobic oil drops by complex coacervation including a conventional prehardening treatment in which an aldehyde and an alkali material are added to the system, the improvement which comprises adding gelatin having an isoelectric point lower than that of the gelatin employed for forming the walls of the coacervates to the system at a temperature lower than the gelling point of the gelatin employed for forming the walls of the coacervates, but prior to the simultaneous presence in the system of said aldehyde and alkali material, in an amount sufficient to prevent an increase in viscosity due to the reaction of gelatin and aldehyde during said prehardening step.
