Powder flowability depends on many traits: the shape and size of the powder particles due to intermolecular force, porosity electrostatic activity hygroscopy bulk density angle of repose presence of glidants oxidation rate (of a metallic powder) humidity ISO 4490:2018 norm (and its precedent, ISO 4490:2014) standardizes a method for determining the flow rate of metallic powders. It uses a normalized/calibrated funnel, named Hall flowmeter. == See also == Fluid mechanics Soil mechanics Cohesion (geology) angle of repose == References ==
