Abstract
The invention relates to a process for preparing polymeric particles, based on the use of a polyester polymer (PE) comprising units from a dicarboxylic acid component and a diol component, wherein at least 2 mol. % of the diol component is a poly(alkylene glycol). The process comprises the melt-blending of the aromatic polymer (P) with the PE, the cooling the blend and the recovery of the particles by dissolution of the PE into water. The present invention relates to polymeric particles obtained therefrom and to the use of these particles in SLS 3D printing, coatings and toughening of thermoset resins.
