Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2008115550A1] A method of producing at least one of microscopic and submicroscopic particles includes providing a template that has a plurality of discrete surface portions, each discrete surface portion having a surface geometry selected to impart a desired geometrical property to a particle while being produced, depositing a constituent material of the at least one of microscopic and submicroscopic particles being produced onto the plurality of discrete surface portions of the template to form at least portions of the particles, separating the at least one of microscopic and submicroscopic particles comprising the constituent material from the template into a fluid material, the particles being separate from each other at respective discrete surface portions of the template, and processing the template for subsequent use in producing additional at least one of microscopic and submicroscopic particles. A multi-component composition includes a plurality of particles dispersed in the first material component.
