ASTM D6393/D6393M-21 Standard Test Method for Bulk Solids Characterization by Carr Indices: Essential Applications for Powder Flow Analysis in Industrial Processing

/ / Published in ASTM Test Standards, Science and Research

When working with bulk solids in industries like pharmaceuticals, food processing, or mining, understanding how powders and granular materials will behave during handling is crucial. ASTM D6393/D6393M-21 provides a standardized method for measuring the flowability and floodability characteristics of bulk solids through what are known as Carr Indices. These indices help you predict how materials…
