Abstract
Composite particles comprising core particles completely or partially coated with a precipitated polymer, where the d50 median diameter of the core particles is from 3 to 100 μm and wherein the glass core particle material is at least one selected from the group consisting of a solid glass bead, a hollow glass bead, a porous glass bead, and a foamed glass particle. A method to prepare the particles includes dissolution of a polymer in a solvent and precipitation of the polymer in the presence of a suspension of the core glass particles. Further provided is a layer by layer moulding process employing the composite particles and mouldings obtained therefrom.
