Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for preparing solid microcapsules, comprising the following steps a) adding, with stirring, a composition C1 to a polymeric composition C2 comprising at least one aliphatic or aromatic ester or polyester, additionally bearing at least one function selected from the group consisting of acrylate, methacrylate, vinyl ether, N-vinyl ether, epoxy, siloxane, amine, lactone, phosphate and carboxylate functions and mixtures thereof, whereby an emulsion (E1) is obtained comprising droplets of composition C1 dispersed in a composition C2; b) adding, with stirring, the emulsion (E1) to a composition C3 whereby a double emulsion (E2) is obtained comprising droplets dispersed in the composition C3; c) applying shear to the emulsion (E2) whereby a double emulsion (E3) is obtained comprising droplets of controlled size dispersed in the composition C3; and d) polymerizing the composition C2, whereby solid microcapsules dispersed in the composition C3 are obtained.
