The importance of powder characterization

Effective powder characterisation can lead to better powder understanding and control, which is crucial in the pharma industry where the majority of APIs are delivered as powders. Tim Freeman explains why powder characterisation is not always an easy task and offers advice on how best to obtain rich data sets that can be used to predict powder behaviour in different situations.
