Pelletizing

Pelletization is the oldest, the most facile and efficient way of shaping to any compound and is based on forming agglomerated particles by applying pressure to the powder. A binder can also be added to increase the stability of the pellets. However, the main challenge in shaping is the stability of the crystals under elevated pressures, which may cause partial collapse or change in the structure.

Despite all this, due to improved stability and easy manipulation of size and shape, pellets are good candidates for applications such as adsorption beds and separation columns.

Benefits of pellets

• Improved final product performance: they do not become windblown and are much easier to accurately apply in the research tests.
• Reduced waste of material: since a powdered material often results in excess material waste.
• Improved Product Handling: research chemicals in pellets form are more easier to handle and apply over the powder form.
• Improved stability and degradation: since they are compressed by high pressure processes, the stability and degradation are improved for long time conservation.
• Convenient dosage: the concentration is designed for the best research tests.
• Premium products: the appearance could be customized so the final results are quite easy to identify.

Chemical uses of pellets

The chemical use of pellets is simple: having a way to transport, store and dosage the exact concentration of a specific chemical. In this case, you can find several shapes, colours and even some pre-cut forms in order to facilitate its counting or division.

Special terms and conditions to buy pellets

All our research chemicals, including the pellets ones, are strictly sold for laboratory and analytic purposes only. If you purchase our offered products from outside of the Netherlands, please check the legal status in your country before ordering since you’re responsible for compliance with the laws of your jurisdiction.
