An apparatus and method of making crosslinked chromonic nanoparticles includes providing a first aqueous liquid stream including a continuous water-soluble polymer phase and a discontinuous chromonic material phase, providing a second aqueous liquid stream including a salt solution having a multivalent cation, and contacting the first aqueous liquid stream with the second aqueous liquid stream in parallel laminar flow to non-covalently crosslink the chromonic material with the multivalent cation, forming crosslinked chromonic nanoparticles. The chromonic material phase can optionally include an encapsulated guest molecule.
