Sampling is one of the most important aspects of particle size analysis. If a biased sample is analyzed, a biased particle size distribution will be recorded. The requirement for good sampling not ...

The powder sample tends to be compressed on the walls of the sample vessel, with the compressed portions on the front and back walls giving rise to two sets of peaks that are shifted from each other ...

Internal corrosion generates black powder inside pipelines, while the composition of transported gas determines the powder’s composition. Preventing its occurrence or effectively managing the effects ...

Fine powders and granular materials are extensively employed in industrial applications. These materials have to be properly characterized to control and to improve the processing techniques. The ...

Enshrined in the concept of Quality by Design is the premise that optimized pharmaceutical manufacturing requires detailed understanding of products and processes. With this in mind, many benefits can ...

How effective powder characterization can lead to better powder understanding and control. Understanding and controlling powder behaviour can help to formulate clinically effective products, design ...

NASA's Curiosity Mars rover used its robotic arm Wednesday, March 11, to sieve and deliver a rock-powder sample to an onboard instrument. The sample was collected last month before the team ...
