Eliminating Agglomeration Resulting from the Grinding Process
The investment in a liquid nitrogen cooling system has proven to be a very cost-effective solution to the powder agglomeration problem. The grinding of solid materials to produce powders is a common manufacturing step found in many industries.In the coatings industry,grinding may be used in the preparation of pigments and of powder coating.Of particular focus in this article is an application solution successfully deployed in the production of powder coating. In the powder coating industry,several different types of polymeric matricesRead More …
