Watch the presentation of this webinar here: https://bit.ly/3to7vDj Shifting pharmaceutical manufacturing of solid dosage forms from batch to continuous, feeding of excipients and API has gained significant relevance. New critical material attributes determine accurate and consistent performance. For stable long-term operation, understanding of risks for material adhesion is key. Powder feeding is crucial for a robust continuous manufacturing (CM) operation and product quality. Even with modern gravimetric feeders, this can be a crossroad for CM as different powders interact distinctively with a given equipment. Due to the complex nature of powders, their behavior needs to be considered in a multivariate manner. We will identify sources of feeding problems, present a set of experiments with a wide range of excipient powders and extract critical material attributes for successful feeding. We will show how feeding may alter powders, and specifically their electrostatic charge. Finally, we will present the effect of relative humidity (RH) on charge and related powder adhesion. In this webinar, you will learn: • Why feeding is highly relevant for continuous manufacturing • How powder properties affect feeding performance • Which feeding-induced alterations to powder properties may occur • How relative humidity affects electrostatic charging and material adhesion
