Standard Test Method for Determining Flowability Using GranuDrum

Importancia y uso:

5.1 Granular materials and fine powders are widely used in industrial applications. To control and to optimize processing methods, these materials must be precisely characterized. This device is used to measure flowing properties (flowing angle, dynamic Cohesive Index, first avalanche angle and powder aeration), which are useful in comparing properties of one powder to another.

Note 2: The quality of the result produced by this standard is dependent on the competence of the personnel performing it and the suitability of the equipment and facility used. Agencies that meet the criteria of Practice D3740 are generally considered capable of competent and objective testing/sampling/inspection. Reliable results depend on many factors; Practice D3740 provides a means of evaluating some, but not all, of those factors.
