How to avoid doughnut or donut shaped granules?
By using Freeze Granulation – Spray Freeze Drying – you will be able to avoid donut-shaped granules. — Please contact us and we will further discuss the opportunities with Freeze Granulation on your powder system and read more on technology and we propose a Granulation Test of your powder system.
Granule shape, size and density
Freeze Granulation provides spherical free-flowing dust-free granules without cavities in the size range of 20-500 micron. The solids content of the suspension (slip) and the processing parameters (pump speed and airflow) control the granule density and size. —- Please contact us and we will further discuss the opportunities with Freeze Granulation on your… Continue reading Granule shape, size and density
Granule homogeneity
Migration and segregation of the constituents that is common in other granulating processes such as spray drying is avoided in Freeze Granulation. By instant freezing of small droplets critical ice crystal growth is avoided. The freeze drying where the liquid medium is sublimated ensures homogeneity preservation, limited oxidation and soft bonds within the granules. This provides… Continue reading Granule homogeneity
Thermal spraying
Homogeneous thermal spray powders, for forming thermal spray coatings, can be made by Freeze Granulation. The homogeneity of the spray powders is very important, not only for composite spray powders and by using FG you will keep the homogeneity throughout the process.
Utilization of Freeze Granulation for different applications
Freeze granulation can be utilized on lab scale as well on production scale with equality in granule properties and high yield for many applications. Besides large quantities also very small experimental batches (50-100 ml slip) can easily be processed. The equipment is easy to clean, enabling use of water insoluble polymers (latexes) as binder and… Continue reading Utilization of Freeze Granulation for different applications
Technical specification lab-scale freeze granulator (LS-2)
PowderPro AB provides equipment for Freeze Granulation in two versions, LS-2 (see photo) and LS-6. The maximum granulation capacity of LS-2 is 2 litres slurry per hour and for LS-6 6 litres slurry per hours that typically correspond to ca 2 and 6 kg dry powder respectively. LS-2 and LS-6 consists of a slip container… Continue reading Technical specification lab-scale freeze granulator (LS-2)
A kind of spray dryer that make homogeneous granules – Freeze Granulator
A Freeze Granulator is a kind of spray dryer that produces homogeneous granules, see photo below showing a cross section of a granule with no defects; no pores, no inhomogeneities like agglomerates or migration of fines or binders. — Please contact us and we will further discuss the opportunities with Freeze Granulation on your powder system… Continue reading A kind of spray dryer that make homogeneous granules – Freeze Granulator
Continuous granulation of powders and chemicals
Continuous granulation of powders and chemicals by Freeze Granulation. At PowderPro we are currently developing a new production granulator for continous granulation of powders and chemicals with a capacity of 50-100 kg/shift. — Please contact us and we will further discuss the opportunities with Freeze Granulation on your powder system and read more on technology and… Continue reading Continuous granulation of powders and chemicals
