Apparatus Bulk density ISO 23145 and flowability ISO14629 of ceramic powders

With the help of this measuring device, the bulk density and the flowability of ceramic powders can be determined.

DIN EN ISO 23145-2:
The bulk density of ceramic powders flowing freely through a nozzle with a 2.5 mm diameter outlet is determined. Test powders that flow poorly or not at all through the 2.5 mm nozzle but pass through a nozzle with a 5 mm outlet also fall within the scope of the standard. The bulk material trickles through a standardised funnel into a collecting container with a defined volume. The mass of the bulk material is determined by differential weighing.

DIN EN ISO 14629 :
The flow rate of 50 g of a ceramic powder flowing through a standardised funnel is determined. The flowability is obtained by dividing the sample mass by the flow rate.

Material:
Stainless steel V4A = 1.4305, non-magnetic, electropolished, funnel surface highly polished RA <= 0,4.
