Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A nozzle for spouting a liquid phase, in which one liquid phase in a two-liquid phase system can be stably jetted as highly dispersible droplets while suppressing coalescence of droplets, and accumulation of fine solid components in the nozzle hardly occurs. The nozzle has a structure in which capillary tubes or pores are assembled. Further, the capillary tubes or the pores are formed using a suitable material having a low affinity for organic or a low affinity for water, or a material subjected to appropriate surface treatment.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A nozzle for spouting a liquid phase, comprising a structure in which a plurality of capillary tubes or pores, each having a suction end for sucking in a liquid phase and a discharge end for releasing the sucked liquid phase, are assembled, wherein the capillary tubes or pores include a plurality of different lengths that are mixed in the structure. 2. The nozzle for spouting a liquid phase according to claim 1 , wherein the structure includes a casing container that covers the entire suction end, and a liquid feeding pipe for feeding the liquid phase is attached to the casing container. 3. The nozzle for spouting a liquid phase according to claim 1 , wherein the inner diameter of the capillary tubes or pores is 5 times or more the maximum particle diameter of particle components contained in the liquid phase, and the capillary tubes or pores are formed in a straight line. 4. The nozzle for spouting a liquid phase according to claim 2 , wherein the inner diameter of the capillary tubes or pores is 5 times or more the maximum particle diameter of particle components contained in the liquid phase, and the capillary tubes or pores are formed in a straight line.
