The invention relates to particles comprising: at least one
ionically-charged water-soluble polymer; at least one surfactant having
an ionic charge opposite to that of said polymer; and at least one
water-soluble block copolymer having at least one non-ionic hydrophilic
block and at least one non-ionic hydrophobic or ionic block. The
invention also relates to a method of obtaining such particles consisting
in: preparing a first aqueous mixture comprising the water-soluble,
ionically-charged polymer and, if necessary, the water-soluble block
copolymer if said copolymer has the same charge; subsequently, a second
mixture is added to the above mixture, said second mixture comprising the
surfactant and, if necessary, the water-soluble block copolymer if said
copolymer has the same charge as the surfactant or if it is not ionically
charged. Furthermore, the invention relates to the use of water-soluble
block copolymers as an agent for stabilizing particles with a
mesophase-forming internal structure, the internal structure of the
resulting particles forming the same mesophase.
