Properties Dependent on Single Particle Characteristics

It is not within the scope of this report to give a full account of the basic tests and scale-up theory but there are some fundamental concepts in particle characterization that have to be stated here. 

The characterization of primary particle properties in a particulate system and their correlation with the secondary bulk properties of the system is a problem common to all branches of particle technology. As pointed out above, it is still necessary in powder handling to measure the secondary properties directly and it can be argued, therefore, that particle characterization can be 

The following short account of particle properties and how they are characterized only points out the basic philosophy and gives an over-view. More detailed study and information can be obtained from the literature8,9.
