Question

Which type of action is required for wet granulation, when planetary mixer is used?​

Answer 1

Answer:

When used as a granulator, planetary motion of the mixer is generated by rotating the agitator off an assembly in a direction opposite to that of the rotation of the agitator assembly as it moves around the bowl

EPLANATION:Granulation is the process of forming grains or granules from a powdery or solid substance, producing a granular material. It is applied in several technological processes in the chemical and pharmaceutical industries. Typically, granulation involves agglomeration of fine particles into larger granules, typically of size range between 0.2 and 4.0 mm depending on their subsequent use. Less commonly, it involves shredding or grinding solid material into finer granules or pellets.
