Abstract:
Apparatus for preparing a rapidly solidifying mixture from a plurality of liquid components and subsequent atomization of the solidifying mixture comprising a mixing chamber (4), the liquids to be mixed being able to be fed separately to the mixing chamber (4) and the mixing chamber (4) having essentially no back-mixing in the areas in which reactions can occur or having essentially no dead spaces in the flow in the areas, wherein the apparatus comprises a liquid distributor (1â€², 7) and N droplet-forming nozzles (9a,9b, . . . ) which are connected to the liquid distributor (1â€², 7), and wherein the liquid distributor (1â€², 7) is connected to the mixing chamber (4) and distributes the mixed stream coming from the mixing chamber (4) equally over the nozzles (9a, 9b, . . . ) essentially without back-mixing or dead spaces in the flow, so that the residence times of the partial streams in the liquid distributor (1â€²,7) are essentially identical.
