  • Publication number: 20200062892
    Abstract: A method produces polybutylene terephthalate resin particles, which includes (a) a step of heating a polybutylene terephthalate resin in an organic solvent to obtain a solution of a polybutylene terephthalate resin (dissolution step), and (b) a step of flash-cooling the solution to precipitate polybutylene terephthalate resin particles (precipitation step). The method produces PBT resin particles by a simple operation that can be performed industrially.

  • Patent number: 10202496
    Abstract: A production method of polyvinylidene fluoride resin particles comprising: (Process a1) a process to precipitate the polyvinylidene fluoride resin particles by adding a 100 mass % solution in total consisting of 75 to 99 mass % organic solvent, 1 to 25 mass % water and 0.5 to 15 mass % polyvinylidene fluoride resin to a poor solvent of the polyvinylidene fluoride resin; or (Process a2) a process to precipitate polyvinylidene fluoride resin particles by performing a flash-crystallization of the solution. With such a configuration, PVDF resin particles can be industrially produced by simple operations without using surfactant agent.

  • Patent number: 8563681
    Abstract: This invention provides a process for producing fine PPS resin particles and dispersion thereof by industrially applicable simple operation. This invention further provides very fine PPS resin particles, and furthermore provides fine PPS resin particles uniform in particle size. This invention is a process for producing fine polyphenylene sulfide resin particles comprising the following steps (a) and (b); (a) a step of heating a polyphenylene sulfide resin in an organic solvent, for obtaining a solution with the polyphenylene sulfide resin dissolved therein (dissolution step) (b) a step of flushing-cooling the aforementioned solution, for precipitating the fine particles of the polyphenylene sulfide resin (precipitation step).
