METHOD AND DEVICE FOR CHARACTERIZING GRANULE STRENGTH

The present invention provides a method and device for measuring granule impact strength by vibrating a small container of granules at a well-controlled amplitude in order to inflict reproducible damage to the granules. Damage to the granules is measured as a function of time and amplitude. The meas...

Summary:The present invention provides a method and device for measuring granule impact strength by vibrating a small container of granules at a well-controlled amplitude in order to inflict reproducible damage to the granules. Damage to the granules is measured as a function of time and amplitude. The measurements obtained yield a highly reproducible method and device for characterizing granule attrition and fragmentation.
