Abstract: The void fraction, an important powder packing property, has a direct impact on many of the powder
physical characteristics and applications. In order to demonstrate how the variation in powder particle size
affects its packing property, this application note illustrates the true density, skeletal density, tapped density, and
void fraction of glass beads at different particle sizes.
Introduction
The fundamental characteristic of dry powder is its packing void fraction; when it is in the tapped
porosity, which typically only considers the fraction packing state, its packing density is equal to its
of voids between the particles. This powder property tapped density and the void fraction is equal to the
is very useful to comprehend the mechanical, tapped-packing void fraction; these values are as
electrical, heat transfer, and flow properties of follows:
the powder in many different fields, such as soil,
ceramic, metallurgy, pharmaceutical, etc.
