Powder Granulating

Pain Points in Powder Granulation

In powder granulation processes, manufacturers often encounter challenges such as uneven granule size, poor flowability, dust generation, and difficulty in achieving consistent binding. These issues can reduce production efficiency, cause material loss, and impact final product quality

Powder Granulating

Solutions We Offer

Powder Granulating solution

Celotech provides cellulose and polymer-based additives that improve particle cohesion, enhance moisture retention, reduce dust, and support uniform granule formation. These solutions are widely recognized in the construction chemical and industrial powder sectors for improving processing stability and product consistency

Celopro® prevents sedimentation in spray drying slips and acts as a rheology modifier. It contributes to an advantageous particle size distribution of the dried granules and fast filling of pressing moulds. In combination with plasticizer and other additives, it provides high green strength and shows excellent debinding behaviour.
