A nozzle device includes a nozzle body and at least one second electrode. The nozzle body extends along a longitudinal axis, and has a top surface, a bottom surface for confronting a first electrode of a workpiece, a recess provided in the bottom surface, and a longitudinal channel extending downwardly from the top surface along the longitudinal axis to be in fluid communication with the recess. The longitudinal channel has an upper section and a lower tapered section which is tapered downwardly to form a lower communication port. The least one second electrode is disposed in the recess for being spaced apart from the first electrode.

A fluidized bed spray drying system for drying liquid into powder including an elongated drying chamber, a spray nozzle assembly at an upper end of the drying chamber and a powder collection chamber at a lower end of the drying chamber. A drying gas inlet is provided in the powder collection chamber and a drying gas outlet is provided at an upper end of the drying chamber. A plurality of cylindrical filter elements at the upper end of the drying chamber are in communication with the exhaust gas outlet for filtering drying gas borne powder from drying gas exiting the drying chamber.

An applicator is disclosed for applying a treatment solution to a treatment site of a patient. The applicator can include an applicator housing comprising a treatment solution reservoir. A cartridge can be removably disposed in the housing. The cartridge when arranged in the housing can be in fluid communication with the treatment solution reservoir. The cartridge can include an electrostatic module for electrostatically charging the treatment solution in the treatment solution reservoir; and a nozzle for applying the treatment solution.

Described herein is a method for producing at least one coating (B1) on a substrate, including provision of a coating material composition (BZ1) (1), determination of a mean filament length of filaments formed on rotational atomization of the coating material composition (BZ1) provided as per step (1) (2), reduction of the determined mean filament length (3), application of at least the coating material composition (BZ1) obtained after step (3), with reduced mean filament length, to a substrate, to form at least one film (F1) (4), and physical curing, chemical curing and/or radiation curing at least of the at least one film (F1) formed on the substrate as per step (4), to produce the coating (B1) on the substrate (5). Also described herein is a coating (B1) located on a substrate and obtainable by means of this method.
