    摘要: A method and an apparatus useful for the production of microparticles and nanoparticles are disclosed in which a compressed fluid and a solution including a solvent and a solute are introduced into a nozzle to produce a mixture. The mixture is then passed out of the nozzle to produce a spray of atomized droplets. The atomized droplets are contacted with a supercritical antisolvent to cause depletion of the solvent in the droplets so that particles are produced from the solute. Preferably, these particles have an average diameter of 0.6 .mu.m or less. The invention can be used in the pharmaceutical, food, chemical, electronics, catalyst, polymer, pesticide, explosives, and coating industries, all of which have a need for small-diameter particles.

    摘要: Improved methods and apparatus for particle precipitation and coating using near- or supercritical fluid conditions are described. A fluid dispersion having a continuous phase dispersant and at least one precipitatable substance therein is contacted with a supercritical fluid (SCF) antisolvent so as to generate focused high frequency antisolvent sonic waves, breaking up the dispersion into extremely small droplets; the enhanced mass transfer rates between the droplets and the antisolvent causes precipitation of very small particles on the order of 0.1-10 .mu.m. In coating processes, a turbulent fluidized flow of core particles is created using an SCF antisolvent in an enclosed zone. The core particles are contacted therein at near- or supercritical conditions by a fluid dispersion containing a dispersant together with a precipitatable substance. The antisolvent depletes the dispersant and the substance is precipitated onto the fluidized core particles. In another aspect of the invention, a process for preparing and administering a medicament using only a single container is provided. In such method, a fluid dispersion having a dispersant with the medicament therein is contacted with an antisolvent at near- or supercritical conditions within a use container, so as to directly precipitate small particles of the medicament in the container. The antisolvent is then removed and the use container is sealed with the medicament particles therein. Thereafter, dose(s) of the medicament can be withdrawn from the use container and administered to a patient.

    摘要: Commercially feasible methods for lyophobic precipitation of liquid-dispersed or dissolved material (e.g., medicaments) are provided wherein a plurality of individual, open containers (22) each containing a quantity (84) of a solution or dispersion are treated within a common pressurizable chamber (12). In this process, desired near-supercritical or supercritical temperature and pressure conditions are established for a selected antisolvent gas such as carbon dioxide, and an ultrasonic device (14) is actuated to generate high energy ultrasonic waves in the chamber (12). This leads to intense mixing of the antisolvent with the liquid solution or dispersion within the containers (22), with consequent solvent removal and material precipitation.

    摘要: Processes and apparatuses are provided for continuously harvesting particles from organic solution-laden near-critical and supercritical fluids. Broadly, the processes and apparatuses utilize a filter or separator comprising a thin membrane supported on a sintered stainless steel tube. A feed stream comprising the desired particles, a supercritical antisolvent for the particles (preferably CO.sub.2), and a solvent for the particles, is contacted with the membrane layer of the filter under supercritical conditions for the mixture of antisolvent and solvent. The preferred antisolvents are substantially miscible with the solvent and have a critical temperature of less than 160.degree. C. The desired particles are retained by the filter while the solvent and most of the antisolvent pass through the filter, resulting in separation of the particles from the solvent.
