A Practical Example Of Of “End Point” Determination In A New Granulator Using The Caleva Mixer Torque Rheometer
AN APPLICATION NOTE A PRACTICAL EXAMPLE OF OF “END POINT” DETERMINATION IN A NEW GRANULATOR USING THE CALEVA MIXER TORQUE RHEOMETER LABORATORY / PRODUCTION CALEVA The hand squeeze test. Is this the right way?2 THE PROBLEM A company wished to move a formulation currently undergoing product development from small scale laboratory (with batches of 50 grams) to the next stage for a larger scale batch trial of 100 kg (scale–up). The development had been started using a small Caleva Multi Lab bench top mixer (maximum batch capacity 50 gram of wet mass). This development had been successful and now additional samples were required for larger scale trials. The granulator on the Caleva Multi Lab is a very small high shear mixer with a 50 g batch capacity but the only mixer/granulator avail
