| 20100240927 | METHOD FOR PREPARATION OF PARTICLES - The present invention relates to a new method for preparing micron-sized particles which comprises introducing in the particle formation vessel a solute solution in a solvent and a compressed fluid under supercritical conditions, wherein the vessel in which the particles are formed is at a pressure comprised between atmospheric pressure and 15 bar. The particles obtained present a small size, a limited size distribution, and low agglomeration. Particles with suitable fluidity can furthermore be prepared from products, for example, pharmaceutical active ingredients and/or excipients, with a low glass transition temperature. | 09-23-2010 |
