Fluidization

SOLIDIFICATION OF A MELT TO MAKE GRANULES

COATING METAL OBJECTS WITH PLASTIC
Solidification
It is the phenomena of phase transition to solid from a
liquid or molten stage by means of a cooling medium
In the following topics we are going to use cooling air as a
medium of cooling to solidify from molten state.
Solidification of a Melt to Make Granules

Consider urea in hot molten state that is to be sprayed to
the agricultural fields by means of conversion to solid state.
So, by using the solidification principle , hot molten urea is
converted to solid state by means of cooling air.
Application
Coating Metal Objects with Plastic

Adsorption of fluidized plastic particles on the hot metal
surface by means of heat transfer mechanism
There is a formation of thick plastic layer on the surface of
the metal which is smoothed by further heating .
Application
Advantages
This process can be used for objects with uneven or highly
concave surfaces, such as metal lawn furniture, and its
coating is much thicker than paint. It is economically
attractive and widely used in industry because it needs no
solvent and utilization of material is complete.
