Q

Plastic deformation of shape

A

Force and heat is applied to a product permanently altering its shape. Occurs due to molecules slide over each other. Occurs once the elastic limit has been reached

Q

What is responsible for the the 3rd phase of the particle deformation graph

A

Elastic deformation of compact

17
Q

What is the 1st phase of the tensile strength graph

A

Compression but no compact

18
Q

What is the 2nd phase of the tensile strength graph

A

Higher compression increases the tensile strength

19
Q

What is the 3rd phase of the tensile strength graph

A

Maximum tensile strength reached

20
Q

Why does tensile strength occur

A

Due to inter particle bonding within the tablet
