Adhesion
Adhesion is the ability of different materials to stick together through intermolecular forces or mechanical interlocking. This property plays a crucial role in industries like coatings, adhesives, and electronics, where strong and reliable bonds are essential for product performance and durability.
On this page, discover the principles of adhesion, factors that influence it, and its applications in optimizing industrial processes and material design.

Changeover Losses in Continuous Powder Lines: 5 Fast Wins to Boost Efficiency
Changeovers can quietly waste hours and tons of product in continuous powder lines. The cause is rarely a single fault. Most losses stem from small oversights that add up—sticky residues, trapped air, timing mistakes, or slow cleanups. Focusing on five targeted actions can reclaim yield, reduce downtime, and improve consistency without incurring new [...]

Case Study: Powder Technology Principles in Laser-Assisted Bioprinting
Table of contents Executive Summary laser-assisted bioprinting powder principles show the benefits of particle thinking. Treat every printed droplet as a living particle. Then use the same physics that guide powders to design jetting, impact, packing, and maturation. This frame reduces trial and error and gives teams a shared [...]

The Ultimate Guide to Powder Technology
Powder technology is the backbone of precision manufacturing and process optimization. Industries that master it, through deep control of particle size, flowability, and morphology, gain critical advantages in processes like mixing, granulation, milling, and blending. Whether developing pharmaceuticals, producing food powders, printing metal parts, or enhancing materials, success hinges on understanding how powders [...]

Advanced Powder Characterization Techniques
In this article, we will take a glance at the Advanced Powder Characterization techniques, that are currently available. Characterizing powders is a deceptively complex challenge. At first glance, it might seem that measuring particle size, bulk density, or flowability should tell us all we need to know. But anyone working with powders knows better. [...]

Powders and Coatings in Orthopedic Implants
Through the innovative use of Powders and Coatings in Orthopedic Implants, the landscape is changing in a great way. Orthopedic implants, used to replace damaged bones such as the femur, tibia, fibula, humerus, or acetabulum, rely on anatomically designed biomaterials and advanced surface engineering. These innovations ensure implants are durable, biocompatible, and capable [...]
