Spray Drying of Tenside (Surfactants)
Application Note Mini Spray Dryer B-290 Tensid (Surfactants)
Spray drying of tensides involves the conversion of liquid tenside formulations into powders. Tensides, also known as surfactants, are chemical compounds that are commonly used in a variety of industrial and consumer products, including detergents, cleaners, and personal care products. The spray drying process is used to create a dry powder form of the tenside, which can be easily stored and transported.
During spray drying, the liquid tenside formulation is atomized into small droplets that are then dried in a hot gas stream. The resulting powder is typically free-flowing and has a high bulk density, making it easier to handle and process. Spray drying can also improve the stability and shelf-life of the tenside powder.
The spray drying process parameters, such as inlet temperature, atomization pressure, and airflow rate, can be optimized to produce a powder with desired properties such as particle size, morphology, and flowability. Additionally, the use of encapsulation techniques in spray drying can further enhance the stability and performance of the tenside powder.
