Abstract
An original process for obtaining colloidal dispersions were used to p repare pseudolatex of coating polymers (Eudragit E 100 and Eudragit S 100). The method consists in introducing under magnetic stirring; a so lution of the polymers in a water-miscible solvent into an aqueous sol ution containing surfactant. In these conditions, polymers precipitate spontaneously in nanospheres. Investigations of some manufacturing pa rameters (initial polymer concentration, nature and concentration of s urfactant) have allowed development of formulae for a semi-industrial scal-up. Characteristics of dispersions were also determined.
