Aim of the course: Introduction to some basic methods used for powder characterisation, particle size measurement and a brief introduction to powder dispersion and suspension characterisation; discussion of the fundamental theory behind the methods and their limitations; measurement of real samples and correct interpretation of the results collected; presentation of in-house protocols for reproducible and reliable measurements towards metrology; examples of "real" powders in applications and the influence of their intrinsic characteristics; presentation of in-house software and models for interparticle interactions and yield stress prediction.
