Abstract
A process for producing microcapsules comprising the steps of: adding a hydroxy or amine functionalized acrylic resin or copolymer to an aqueous emulsion including a dispersed internal phase composition; PA0 simultaneously or subsequently adding a formaldehyde condensate prepolymer to said emulsion; and PA0 forming interpenetrating polymer network microcapsule walls around said internal phase, said interpenetrating polymer network microcapsule walls comprising the condensation reaction product of said functionalized acrylic resin or copolymer and said formaldehyde condensate prepolymer is disclosed.
