An object of the invention is to provide a method for producing a capsule or microbead having high encapsulation efficiency of an encapsulated substance, high production efficiency, and high versatility. The invention relates to a method for producing a microcapsule or microbead, comprising: a step of disposing a monomer droplet or polymer droplet containing a substance to be encapsulated, which has a surface coated with a plurality of solid fine particles, on a flat surface; and a step of solidifying the monomer droplet or polymer droplet disposed on the flat surface in a gas phase so as to form an outer shell of a capsule or microbead, thereby forming a region enclosed by the outer shell, wherein the substance is encapsulated in the region.

Hollow particles having a shell including at least one layer, wherein the at least one layer contains a vinyl-based resin, and contains a phosphorus atom and/or a sulfur atom.

Described herein is a composite microcapsule slurry including at least one microcapsule having an oil-based core including a hydrophobic material, preferably a perfume, and a composite shell including a first material and a second material. The first material and the second material are different, the first material is a coacervate, the second material is a polymeric material, and the weight ratio in the slurry between the first material and the second material is between 50:50 and 99.9:0.1.

Disclosed are voided latex particles, useful as opacifying agents for coating compositions containing organic solvents. The particles have a hollow interior, which substantially maintains its integrity after the particles are placed in contact with an organic solvent at 25° C. for 30 days. The particles also have a hydrophilic polymeric interior shell surrounding the hollow interior that is swellable with an aqueous swelling solution. The particles have first and second polymeric intermediate shells, surrounding the interior shell, formed from polymers that are different from each other and different from the interior shell polymer. Finally, the particles have an outer polymeric shell, surrounding the interior shells, which is formed from up to 100% by weight, as polymerized units, of methyl methacrylate. The interior shells and the outer shell each have a Tg greater than 60° C. Also disclosed is a multi-stage emulsion process for making the particles.

Perfume microcapsule-containing films, related solutions, and containers including the films (e.g. detergent packets) are disclosed, together with their methods of preparation and use.
