This coating device 1 comprises a dispersing/mixing part 2, a conveying part 3, and a collecting part 4. A raw material powder and a coating solution are supplied to the dispersing/mixing part 4 as a slurry. In the dispersing/mixing part 2, the slurry (mixture) in which the raw powder and the coating solution have been mixed is dispersed by means of an air flow of a high-pressure fluid into a powder, a film of the coating solution having adhered to the surface of the powder. The powder is introduced from the dispersing/mixing part 2 to the conveying part 3t and is conveyed with the conveying part 3 oriented toward the collecting part 4. While the powder is being conveyed, the coating solution that has adhered to the particle surfaces dries, whereby a powder in which the particle surfaces ares coated with a precursor is produced. A powder flow introduced into the collecting part 4 passes through a bag filter 54. This causes the powder to be captured by the bag filter 54.

A coated fertilizer comprises a fertilizer granule; and a coating disposed on a surface of the fertilizer granule, wherein the coating comprises a poly(lactic acid); a second polymer comprising a poly(butylene succinate), a cellulose triacetate, or a combination comprising at least one of the foregoing; and a sealant. Methods of making the coated fertilizer are also disclosed.

A method of reducing dust formation and caking in fertilizer comprising coating the fertilizer in a bituminous emulsion. The coating may comprise bitumen, cutback bitumen, or a combination of bitumen and cutback bitumen comprising 20-100% bitumen. The bitumen, cutback bitumen, or combination thereof may be emulsified with water prior to being sprayed on the fertilizer.

Disclosed in the present invention are a method for water-repellent coating treatment of a boron nitride powders and water-repellent treated boron nitride, the method comprising producing a water-repellent coating layer on the surface of the boron nitride powders by plasma treatment using a silicon-containing organic compound containing silicone, wherein the water-repellent coating layer remains on the boron nitride through chemical binding with the boron nitride even after ultrasonic water washing.

The present invention relates to a coating composition comprising at least from 1% by weight to 30% by weight, limits included, of a surfactant, preferably a nitrogen-containing surfactant, and from 5% by weight to 99% by weight, limits included, of a cyclic alcohol, comprising 12 to 100 carbon atoms, limits included, and of derivatives of this.

The present invention also relates to the granular material coated with said composition.

Disclosed are a sorbent produced by recycling waste paper, which is an eco-friendly recycling paper resource, to adsorb and remove a marine spilled oil and other types of oil and a method of producing the same. The oil sorbent is produced by hydrophobizing a biomass material such as waste paper using a gas-grafting method. Compared to the oil sorbent of the prior art formed of synthetic resin, it is possible to provide excellent oil adsorption selectivity, a high oil adsorption rate, and a low water absorption rate. Therefore, an incineration process for processing the waste oil sorbent after use is easy advantageously. The oil sorbent generates less harmful substances during combustion because the eco-friendly material is used. Since a biomass material is hydrophobized using vegetable fatty acids, decomposition is performed fast within a short time in a landfill process, and there is no risk of environmental pollution.
