Powder flowability and density ratios: the impact of granules packing
TLDR
In this paper, a new flowability criterion based on a novel technique to determine a high packing density was proposed, which is more sensitive to differences in flowability, as quantified by the repose angle.About:

Use of seed gums from Tamarindus indica and Cassia fistula as controlled-release agents.
TL;DR: Carboxymethylated gum from T. indica and C. fistula seeds is an excellent, naturally sourced gum with high physicochemical and functional qualities, and can potentially be used in pharmaceutical applications as a disintegrant, diluent, and drug release-controlling agent.

Effect of Process Conditions on Fluidization
Paola Lettieri,Domenico Macrì +1 more
TL;DR: The chapter discusses specifically the effect of temperature, pressure and other special conditions in the fluid bed, at minimum fluidization conditions, in the expanded fluid bed and at minimum bubbling conditions, showing how correlations and models established at ambient temperature and pressure may lead to misleading predictions at super- ambient conditions.

Analysis on the ink transfer mechanism in R2R application
Sang-Won Lee,Yang Na +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a parametric study was conducted to identify the effects of fluid parameters such as viscosity, surface tension and contact angle on the ink transfer process from the printing roll to the web.

Water activity, not moisture content, explains the influence of water on powder flowability
E. Juarez-Enriquez,Guadalupe I. Olivas,Enrique Ortega-Rivas,Paul Baruk Zamudio-Flores,Samuel B. Pérez-Vega,D.R. Sepulveda +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, the effect of water content on the flow factor of pectin powder was investigated and a new methodology intended to vary independently water activity and moisture content was proposed, which allowed to generate powders with similar moisture content but different water activity values.

Densification of monomodal quartz particle beds by tapping
TL;DR: In this article, the mean particle size of monomodal quartz particle beds and the bed preparation method affect initial and final bed apparent density and the kinetics of densification by tapping.
