Adding sustainable raw materials to Self-Compacting Concrete (SCC) modifies its flowability behavior. Furthermore, the use of these may at same time even improve one fresh property while worsening another. An accurate description SCC containing therefore requires a multi-parametric classification that simultaneously covers all properties (slump flow, viscosity, and blocking ratio) for an potent...

The dried fruit of Terminalia chebula is widely used for its laxative properties. The objective of the present study was to examine the flowability and compressibility of Terminalia chebula fruit powder, subsequently developing its tablet formulations by utilizing wet granulation and direct compression technology. Initial studies on flowability and compressibility revealed that the fruit powder...

In order to compare and optimize powders regarding flowability and to design powder handling equipment like silos, feeders, and flow promoting devices, it is necessary to know the mechanical properties – the so-called flow properties. In the present paper it is outlined which physical parameters describe the flow properties of a powder or a bulk solid, and how these parameters are determined ex...

objective(s):the aim of this study was to improve flowability and compressibility characteristics of starch to use as a suitable excipient in direct compression tabletting. quasi-emulsion solvent diffusion was used as a crystal modification method. materials and methods: corn starch was dissolved in hydrochloric acid at 80˚c and then ethanol as a non-solvent was added with lowering temperature ...

For production of high quality PBX charges, it is essential to have low viscosity formulations available during the casting process. As generally known, for a certain filling grade, casting viscosity depends strongly on particle size distribution and on particle shape. We have shown in previous work, that a high tap density of the solid energetic material is one strong requirement to get low vi...

AIM This study investigated the flowability, setting time, pH, calcium release and bond strength of a MTA-based cement (MTA Fillapex(®)) compared to AH Plus and Sealapex. MATERIALS AND METHODS For the flowability test, the ISO 6876:2001 specification was utilized and for the setting time test, the ASTM C266-03 specification was utilized. For the pH and calcium release measurements, 10 samples...
