Posted on 12月 24, 2020 by nitto-kinzokukogyo

Recently, demand for alcohol and sodium hypochlorite has been increasing.

I think your company is doing the following.

We purchased disinfectant solutions to protect the sanitary environment in the company.
Disinfectants are prepared and distributed to ensure the health of employees.

Buy large-capacity items such as 18-liter cans and bag-in-boxes and divide them into small portions. Also, depending on the type of disinfectant, you may need to dilute it, but “Stainless steel products suitable for subdividing” is recommended in this case.

In this column, in addition to “What about the compatibility of antiseptic solution and stainless steel?” we will introduce 2 stainless steel products that are best suited to subdivide disinfectants.

1. Is it okay to store the disinfectant in a stainless steel container?

If you are using powder hoppers, you should know “The fluidity of powder”

It is called “have poor fluidity of powder” when the hopper used for charging the powder is clogged or cannot be discharged to the next process.
But do you know exactly what factors determine the “The fluidity of powder”?

This article provides a brief overview of the factors that influence The fluidity of powder.

What is "Fluidity of powder"?

Roughly speaking, liquidity is “ease of powder flow”.
In our company we say simply, “slippiness”.

For example, the sand inside an hourglass flows smoothly and continuously.
These powders are evaluated as “have good liquidity” and those that do not flow smoothly are evaluated as “The fluidity of powder is bad.”.

Powder with a poor fluidity of powder can clog the hopper and prevent the contents from being loaded or discharged.

What is the Solution to Clogging?

“Clogging” which tends to cause problems when the powder is discharged from the container.
Discharge may take a long time or stop, resulting in uneven product quality.
In the first place, why does the phenomenon of powder clogging occur??

Caution *This article is the general reference data and may vary depending on the terms of use and environment. Our company offers the most suitable specifications from the viewpoint of usage environment, contents and cost for each customer.

The main cause is the powder pressure and friction!

Ideal discharge state: mass flow

Due to the pressure of the powder in the container and the friction generated on the surface, the powder becomes difficult to slip and discharge.
