Who Should Attend
The course is designed primarily for those concerned
with products developed or manufactured from
powdered solids in the pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and
related industries. Most of the material, however, will
be general enough to prove valuable to a much wider
range of interests including but not limited to:-
Scientists
- Suppliers
- Technologists
Description
The primary purpose of this course is to review the
various properties of powdered solids pertinent to the
development and manufacture of the products of the
pharmaceutical, cosmetic and allied industries. In
particular, the latest experimental techniques and
equipment for evaluating important properties of
powders will be discussed and related to both the
underlying principles and common industrial problems.
The different powder processing operations will be
discussed and the range of equipment and machinery
for each will be critically reviewed. Each topic will be
briefly introduced at a fairly fundamental level, but will
then be extended to cover more sophisticated and
innovative techniques, emphasizing the practical
usefulness whenever relevant. The formal sessions will
be supplemented by informal discussion periods. You
will be encouraged to raise specific problems.
