Process and apparatus for the drying of resinous materials

摘要

A novel process for the drying of resinous materials is disclosed which comprises superheating a solution of the resinous material and spraying the superheated solution through one or more venturi shaped nozzles at high pressure in order to provide resultant material in the form of discrete particles having a lowered moisture content. A novel design for a venturi nozzle which may be advantageously employed in carrying out the drying process of the present invention is also disclosed.
