Scott Volumeter The BeDensi B1-S is a Scott volumeter for measuring the bulk density of metallic powders and granular materials. With its compact and durable design, the BeDensi B1-S is ideal for use in laboratories and production facilities, assessing the flowability and packing properties of powders. Scott volumeter is also recommended for bulk density testing in various pharmacopoeias, including the USP and Ph. Eur. standards. Bulk Density Measurement USP Principle The powder is placed on the sieve of the upper assembly funnel and naturally or through external force, it flows into the collection box. It alternately passes through four inclined glass plates with an angle of 25° and a square funnel in the bottom of the collection box, and finally flows into a cylindrical cup with 25 mL, maintaining a loose state. The mass of the powder in the cylindrical cup is then weighed to determine the bulk density of the powder. Measurement Procedure Bulk Density 01 where ρΒ is the bulk density, M is mass in grams, and V Β is the bulk volume in milliliters or cubic centimeters.

Application Example Analyzing bulk density of pharmaceutical powder by BeDensi B1-S. Montmorillonite, a refined clay renowned for its application in alleviating intestinal pain and diarrhea, undergoes meticulous examination in adherence to the guidelines outlined in USP <616> and Ph. Eur. <2.9.34>. The three-cycle measurements of Montmorillonite samples confirm a bulk density of 0.599 g/cm3 , ensuring the precision and compliance of the product. Interoperability The synergy of the laser diffraction analyzer Bettersizer ST and the BeDensi B1 -S investigates the connection between particle...
