POLYOXYMETHYLENE MICROPARTICLES AND METHODS OF PRODUCTION AND USE THEREOF

Methods include dissolving a polyoxymethylene (POM) homopolymer or copolymer in one or more solvents at an elevated temperature (e.g., up to a boiling point+10 C (Ta1)+1oc) of the one or more solvents) to form a polymer mixture, wherein a difference in total Hansen solubility parameters (Mt) for the...

Zusammenfassung:Methods include dissolving a polyoxymethylene (POM) homopolymer or copolymer in one or more solvents at an elevated temperature (e.g., up to a boiling point+10 C (Ta1)+1oc) of the one or more solvents) to form a polymer mixture, wherein a difference in total Hansen solubility parameters (Mt) for the POM homopolymer or copolymer and the one or more solvents is 6 or less; cooling the polymer mixture to form a POM particle composition; and isolating the POM particle composition. Said method may be performed at ambient pressures.
