How spray drying works
According to the supplier, the sap is first made into a liquid extract. That extract is sprayed into a chamber of hot air, where it dries within moments into fine powder particles. The result is a dry material that differs in form from both the liquid sap and solid resin.

Kew’s World Checklist of Vascular Plants accepts Croton lechleri Müll.Arg., published in 1866, as a member of the spurge family. It records the native range as Bolivia, Colombia, Ecuador and Peru.
