Abstract: A method for producing microcapsules with core material and shell material includes following steps: a) providing an aqueous two-phase system comprising at least one salt, which is at least partially not dissolved in this two-phase system and a core material, which is one phase of the two-phase system, and b) adding two solutions i) and ii) in the presence of at least one polymer soluble in solution i) and/or ii), wherein solution i) contains at least one salt of a cation of the salt from step a) and solution ii) contains at least one salt of an anion of the salt from step a). Microcapsules can be obtained or obtainable by the above method, and the microcapsules can be used in products and compositions.
