Theoretical Framework
理论概况 Granular materials and fine powders are widely used in industrial applications. To control and to optimize processing methods, these materials have to be precisely characterized. The characterization methods are related either to the properties of the grains (granulometry, morphology, chemical composition, …) and to the behaviour of the bulk powder (flowability, density, blend stability, electrostatic properties, …). However, concerning the physical behaviour of bulk powder, most of the techniques used in R&D or quality control laboratories are based on old measurement techniques. During the last decade, we have updated these techniques to meet the present requirements of R&D laboratories and production departments. In particular, the measurement processes have been automatized and rigorous initialization methods have been developed to obtain reproducible and interpretable results. Moreover, the use of image analysis techniques improves the measurements precision. 颗粒状材料和精细粉体在工业上有着广泛的应用。为了控制和优化加工方法,必须对这些材料进行精确的表征。表征方法既与颗粒的性质(粒度、形态、化学成分等)有关,也与粉体的行为(流动性、密度、共混稳定性、静电性能等)有关。然而,关于散装粉末的物理性能,大多数在研发或质量控制实验室使用的技术是基于旧的测量技术。在过去的十年中,我们更新了这些技术,以满足研发实验室和生产部门目前的要求。特别是,测量过程已经自动化,并开发了严格的初始化方法,以获得可重复和可解释的结果。利用图像分析技术提高了测量精度。 A range of measurement methods has been developed to cover all the needs of industries processing powders and granular materials. However, in this application note, we will be focused on the GranuFlow instrument. 一系列的测量方法已经发展,以涵盖所有的需要,工业加工粉末和颗粒材料。但是,在这个应用说明中,我们将主要关注GranuFlow仪器。
