This book describes the latest research on producing functional particles using spray processes. The authors detail micro level elementary processes and phase boundaries, process analysis scaling and modeling, and macro level process functions and particle properties. They include numerical simulations and particulars of experiments for deriving process conditions for particle production.

Prof. Dr.-Ing. habil. Udo Fritsching is a Research Director at the Institute of Materials Science, University of Bremen, Germany.
