Abstract: The technological processes about preparing microcapsulation with complex coagulating method were studied.The sodium alginate and gelatin were used as shell-material and menthol as core-material. And the optimal technological conditions of making the microcapsule were determined through orthogonal experiment in the paper. The results showed that the optimal conditions were as follows: concentration of sodium alginate and gelatin, 1% and 6%, respectively, pH 4.1, temperature 40℃ and weight of menthol 1g.
