The FT4, a universal powder rheometer that is used to perform powder flowability tests, now comes with a fully automated, small-volume shear cell that can be used to measure volumes down to 3 mL or less, depending on the characteristics of the powder. This new accessory enables users to extend the range of shear-testing applications on the FT4 to include those for which only very small amounts of sample are available. This encompasses many pharmaceutical actives, and materials, such as early stage formulations, where a wide range of tests must be carried out on limited supplies.
