Powder Rheology of Lactose: Impacts of powder morphology on performance of pharmaceutical excipients
In this note, the processing behavior of two lactose excipients is studied by measuring shear and flowability of milled and spray-dried lactose. Milled lactose was found to have higher cohesion, yield strength, confined and unconfined flow energies when compared to spray-dried lactose.

Powder Rheology for Pharmaceutical Development
Pharmaceutical development is highly regulated, and for good reason. Potential new products must be rigorously tested to ensure their safety, purity, and performance are acceptable before coming to market. For topical creams, regulations uphold stability lifetime parameters and require identification of any impurities before products reach consumers.

Powder Rheology
Description The Powder Rheology Accessory expands the DHR’s capabilities to powders, enabling characterization of behaviors during storage, dispensing, processing and end use. Product development and process optimization are accelerated with quantitative measurements of dynamic flowability and shear properties of consolidated powder. Screening new formulations or incoming raw materials detects unexpected behavior to avoid large-scale…
