Engineered particles through Mechano chemical action

摘要

Used to create new generation materials through coating of submicrometer guest particles to large host powders, dry coating is a relatively new technology that can directly attach different sized particles without any solvents or produced waste. Typically wet methods have previously been employed, through mechanical mans such as pan coaters or through deposition or interfacial polymerisation. This has been done predominantly to form barrier or protective layers, giving release control, atmospheric protection or taste masking in the case of pharmaceutical applications. However resultant waste streams, often VOC's cause added expense and inevitable environmental concerns.
