  • Process for recovering a polymer a solution
    Publication number: 20050010027
    Abstract: Process for recovering a polymer in solution in a solvent, the whole forming a homogeneous medium, according to which: (a) a non-solvent is added to the homogeneous medium so as to make it heterogeneous, (b) the heterogeneous medium is converted into droplets by atomization, (c) the droplets are placed in contact with a gas that vaporizes the solvent, (d) the polymer is recovered in the form of particles.
