A process including: (a) selecting a composition including a polymer and a liquid,
wherein the polymer exhibits lower solubility in the liquid at room temperature
but exhibits greater solubility in the liquid at an elevated temperature, wherein
the composition gels when the elevated temperature is lowered to a first lower
temperature without agitation; (b) dissolving at the elevated temperature at least
a portion of the polymer in the liquid; (c) lowering the temperature of the composition
from the elevated temperature to the first lower temperature; (d) agitating the
composition to disrupt any gelling, wherein the agitating commences at any time
prior to, simultaneous with, or subsequent to the lowering the elevated temperature
of the composition to the first lower temperature: (e) depositing a layer of the
composition wherein the composition is at a second lower temperature lower than
the elevated temperature; and (f) drying at least partially the layer.
