The relationship between attractive interparticle forces and bulk behaviour in dry and uncharged fine powders

TL;DR: The physics of granular materials in ambient gases is governed by interparticle forces, gas-particle interaction, geometry of particle positions and geometry of particles contacts as mentioned in this paper, which are strongly dependent on the external forces, boundary conditions and on the assembling procedure.

Dry particle coating for improving the flowability of cohesive powders

TL;DR: In this paper, the magnetic assisted impaction coater (MAIC) and the hybridizer (HB) were used to coat cornstarch powder with different size silica particles and the improvement in flowability was determined from angle of repose measurements using a Hosokawa powder tester.

Statistical mechanics of vibration-induced compaction of powders

TL;DR: In this article, a theory that describes the density relaxation of loosely packed, cohesionless granular material under mechanical tapping is proposed, where the density of powder initially deposited in a fluffy state evolves under carefully controlled tapping towards a random close packing (RCP) density.

An experimental study of the flow of dry powders over inclined surfaces

TL;DR: In this article, the behavior of dry particulate solids during unconfirmed flow over inclined surfaces has been investigated, and the motion of individual particles is found to depend strongly on the nature of the surface over which they flow.
