From the Magazine
Comprehensive Measurement for Powders
The performance of powder and bulk solids is governed by an interconnected set of material properties, including surface chemistry, pore structure, thermal behavior, and crystalline phase composition. Understanding how these characteristics interact is essential for achieving consistent processing, reliable scale-up, and stable product quality. Chemisorption and gas adsorption techniques quantify surface area, porosity, and gas-solid interactions that influence flowability, adsorption efficiency, and reactive performance. Thermal analysis methods such as TGA and DSC provide insight into moisture content, decomposition behavior, and phase transitions that can lead to caking or yield loss during processing and storage. X-ray diffraction further complements this understanding by identifying crystalline phases and structural changes that affect stability and reactivity.
