Patent ID: 8313676

Claim:
A device for the production of polymer particles, said device comprising: a first reservoir ( 2 ) for holding an emulsion ( 3 ), a second reservoir ( 4 ) for holding a receiving fluid ( 5 ), a jetting module having at least one nozzle ( 6 ), which, when the second reservoir ( 4 ) is filled, is submerged in the receiving fluid ( 5 ), allowing jetting of droplets directly into the receiving fluid ( 5 ), an inclined surface ( 7 ) positioned in or linked to the second reservoir ( 4 ), such that droplets, when jetted from the nozzle ( 6 ) into the receiving fluid ( 5 ) in the second reservoir ( 4 ), move along the inclined surface ( 7 ), wherein the inclined surface ( 7 ) has a gradually changing slope starting vertically and ending with an angle of between 10 to 45 degrees.
