In the disclosed method, a first fluid (36) comprising the first phase and a first precursor polymer of the coacervate in the first phase is supplied, and drops of the first fluid (36) are formed in a second fluid (40) that is to form the second phase (16). The method includes the steps of introducing a second precursor polymer of the coacervate into the second fluid (40), and creating the coacervate layer by having the first precursor polymer interact with the second precursor polymer at the interface between the first phase (14) and the second phase (16) when each drop (12) is formed or once each drop (12) has been formed. |
