How to Expand Your High-Performance Rheometer Capabilities for Powder Characterization
Summary Research rheometers present excellent platforms for the characterisation and quantification of powder flowability. Until recent years, powder characterisations have been restricted only to instruments dedicated to just that one class of materials. Now there is a growing recognition of the opportunities for extending the application of high-performance rheometers to the measurement of particulate solids.…
