Sifting segregation of ideal blends in a two-hopper tester : Segregation profiles and segregation magnitudes
The main aims of this work were: 1) to increase the understanding of the segregation process that occurs during a segregation test that follows the ASTM sifting segregation procedure, and 2) to understand the effect of powder load, fines mass fraction and particle diameter ratio on the segregation of ideal blends. Binary blends of microcrystalline cellulose particles (mean diameter ranging from 16
