Powder Plateau S Curve: How to Win When Physics Limits You
The powder plateau S-curve explains why progress is incremental and why expectations must stay realistic. Physical forces cap performance, so teams pursue steady gains in flow, yield, and energy per kilogram, verified by hard metrics. Optimize current processes, and invest a small, high risk stream in research that could start the next curve. [...]
Powder Caking Prevention: Causes, Testing Methods, and Proven Fixes
Powder caking can be predicted and, in most cases, prevented. It follows a small set of traceable mechanisms, so it is not guesswork. Use DVS, shear, and dwell tests to pinpoint the onset. From those results, define storage windows with real numbers instead of rules of thumb. Then design hoppers, packaging, and climate [...]
The Dictators of Powder Behavior: A practical guide to powder behavior control in production
Powder behavior control starts with fifteen core factors. Tune particle size, shape, surface energy, moisture, charge, and environment. Use ring shear, Hausner ratio, and DEM insights to design predictable flow, mixing, and compaction. Table of contents Powder behavior control starts with particle size, it sets [...]
PFAS vs PTFE in 2025: What’s Really Changing for Powder-Based Manufacturing
PFAS PTFE powder manufacturing industries will face policy tightening across Europe. PTFE’s role as a binder and in plant materials sits in the spotlight. The next 12–24 months will shape supply, compliance costs, and the technical direction of powder-based manufacturing. Table of contents PFAS PTFE [...]
Nanotechnology in Cosmetics: Efficacy, Safety, and Regulation
Nanotechnology in cosmetics improves stability, delivery, and skin performance while raising safety and environmental questions. Verify size, charge, and release with DLS, TEM, and Franz cell tests. Follow EU 1223/2009 and FDA guidance to keep claims credible. Table of contents The global cosmetics market is [...]
