Dry Particle High-Impact Coating of Biopowders: Coating Strength

Experiment and simulation of the dry particle coating

The objective of this study is to get a better understanding of dry powder coating process using experiments and numerical method. Materials chosen as host particles are SUGLETS® (spherical granules mainly consisting of sugar) and as invited particles, magnesium stearate (MgSt). These two materials are introduced in the Cyclomix high shear mixer. Operations were performed at various mixing time...

Dry Sintered Metal Coating of Halloysite Nanotubes

Halloysite nanotubes (HNTs) are a naturally-occurring aluminosilicate whose dimensions measure microns in length and tens of nanometers in diameter. Bonding defects between the alumina and silica lead to net negative and positive charges on the exterior and interior lumen, respectively. HNTs have been shown to enhance the material properties of polymer matrices and enable the sustained release ...

Particle Coating, Taste Masking & Pelletization

Particle coating: From conventional to

Powder particle coating is the most important techni It has constantly being refined and modified since last four decades. There numerous applications of coating, including drug layering, modified release coating, physical and chemical protection, aesthetic purpos identification of drugs. Various coating techniques from conventional pan coating to laser assisted solvent free techniques have bee...

Smooth particle hydrodynamics simulation of surface coating

The simulation of plane impinging jets using the Lagrangian technique of smooth particle hydrodynamics is presented. In Section 1 the impingement of a plane jet onto a stationary surface is considered for Reynolds numbers 800, 4000, 8000 and Froude number 4. For each case, the height of the associated streams is measured and compared with both experimental and theoretical results. The agreement...
