Understanding Powder Characterization: Workshop on Techniques and Applications (CA)

Join us for this powder characterization workshop designed to provide both industrial scientists and academic researchers the essential knowledge and hands-on skills needed to analyze all types of powdered materials. Powder characterization plays a key role in a wide range of industries, including pharmaceuticals, food processing, chemicals, materials science and beyond. This workshop offers the opportunity to explore the details of powder behavior, providing practical insights and hands-on experience using latest Anton Paar instruments.

Key Takeaways: 
  • Fundamentals of powder properties and key parameters influencing powder behavior, such as particle size, shape, and surface area
  • Techniques to investigate powder flow, cohesion, and packing properties
  • Advanced analytical techniques including laser diffraction, dynamic image analysis, and X-ray diffraction
  • Hands-on sessions to analyze powder samples and interpret results under the guidance of Anton Paar’s team of scientists
  • Case studies and applications of powder characterization in diverse industries to optimize processes, enhance product quality, and drive innovation
  • Networking opportunities
Who should attend?

This workshop is designed for scientists, engineers, and technologists who want to deepen their understanding of powder properties or explore the latest advancements in the field.
