Abstract
A process for isolating a poly(ester)carbonate resin from its methylene chloride solution is disclosed. The process entails combining a solution which contains 5 to 30% by weight resin with carbon dioxide fluid in a two-component nozzle under pressures of 90 to 180 bar and at temperatures of 50.degree. to 75.degree. C., while maintaining in said the two-component nozzle a back-pressure of 85 to 150 bar, and introducing the resin into a separation vessel with retention of dust particles. Importantly, the relative quantities of carbon dioxide fluid and polymer solution used in the two-component nozzle are between 10 and 3 parts carbon dioxide fluid per one part of polymer solution, and the carbon dioxide fluid contains 10 to 1000 ppm methylene chloride. The process avoids blockage of said nozzle.
