Powders with different properties
Powders, granules, pellets and other pellets exhibit a range of behaviours that make the equation for effective transfer complicated.
Beyond the Carr index, the angle of repose or its granulometry, the same powder can have very different reactions depending on its supplier.
The transfer conditions, the process, the physical and atmospheric environment are also factors that impact on the appropriate industrial solution.
Knowledge of the material and especially transfer tests are fundamental to designing a relevant transfer solution.
