Particle Size Analysers for Food Powders

Particle size distribution (PSD) of food powders not only affects most aspects of the production process, such as e.g. transport or storage, but also, crucially, influences organoleptic properties of a final product, such as taste and mouthfeel. Anton Paar’s Particle Size Analyzer (PSA) series instruments provide quick, reliable insight into the particle sizes of powders, with information that is important for the inspection of raw materials, product development, production, and quality control. Monitoring the PSD of powders before, during, and after production brings significant time and cost benefits.

Anton Paar’s new e-book, the ‘Field Guide to Food Powder Characterization’, explains how Anton Paar’s outstanding PSA series can be used to deepen the understanding of food powders and highlights particular gains related to PSD determination via laser diffraction, with concrete examples. In the book, application examples of coffee, sugar, milk and chocolate powder measurements are examined and complemented with detailed measurement data.
