Additive manufacturing (AM), or 3D printing, is one of the latest and most sensational developments in manufacturing since the industrial revolution. The technique is mainly based upon ‘layer-by-layer ...

The manufacture of parts by compaction and sintering involves filling a die with metal powder. Research scientists have simulated this process for the first time to achieve an evenly distributed ...

Fine powders and granular materials are extensively used in industrial applications. It is essential to precisely characterize these materials in order to control and optimize processing techniques.

Powders are widely used in pharmaceuticals as active ingredients or excipients in formulations. As a result, several production processes are used for handling powders: wet and dry granulation, ...

Granular materials, fine powders, and nanostructured powders are extensively used in numerous industrial applications. 1 Excipients, particularly, are essential in dry powder pharmaceutical ...

The authors experiment with a resonant acoustic mixer as a method for dry powder coating. Efficient handling and transport of fine-particle powders can be difficult because of the highly cohesive ...

Making milk powder seems simple, but it’s not. Creamer must dissolve very quickly in hot coffee, but powder density is critical for infant formula. Dairy scientists and chemical engineers are using a ...
