Flow Conditioners Market Segmented By Natural and Synthetic nature in Silicon dioxide, Silicates, Phosphates, Stearic acid salts, Talcum, Starches, Modified carbohydrates products
The unwanted alteration of bulk powders, such as deliquescence and caking is a common problem in industries including food, pharmaceutical, detergent, and chemical. The lump formation or caking in the powder may be seen as a detrimental accumulation of particles, which converts a freely flowing powder into a coherent solid. The amount of lump can vary from large lumps to the unalterable fusion of particles that no longer represents the original material.
Thus, deliquescence and caking can be a significant problem that may lead to a loss of functionality of material and may result in the lower quality product, largely impacting the profitability. Thus to prevent caking or any such losses, finely divided solids known as flow conditioners are added to the host powder to prevent the lump formation and to improve the flowability of the powder.
The flow conditioner is additive which either absorbs moisture or prevents lump formation by coating the host particles and making them repellent. The common flow conditioners include silicates, silicon dioxide, phosphates, stearic acid salts, starches, talcum, and modified carbohydrates.
