The surfaces of particulate polymers are modified by tackifying the surfaces with a liquid that is normally a gas at room temperature. The treatment is carried out while the gas is in its supercritical range and the surfaces of the particulate polymers are at temperatures below the glass transition temperature (Tg) of the polymers. The surface modifications can include adhering solids to the surfaces, altering the surface configuration of the particles and increasing the size of the particles by controlled agglomeration.
