SAS 4 Flashcards
Traditionally in wet GRANULATION these equipment are used
Sigma blade, durable planetary mixer, and tumble blenders with high-speed blades
In DRYING these equipment are used
Hot air oven
Fluidized bed-dryer (substitute)
This is the ultimate test of a tablet formulation and granulation process.
Compression
Equipment used IN CAPSULE FILLING operations involve one of the two types of filling system.
Zanasi, MarTelli
HoFLIiger and karg
Equipment used in mixing Semi-solid
Colloid mill with fixed stator plate and high-speed rotating rotor plate
T or F: Transfer pumps for semi-solid products MUST BE ABLE TO MOVE VISCIOS MATERIAL WITHOUT APPLYING EXCESSIVE SHEAR AND INCORPORATION OF AIR.
T
What is the pump called for mixing semi-solid?
Positive displacement pumps
Provide 3 advantages of glass
impermeable
economical
chemically inert
Provide 3 disadvantages of glass
Fragile
Heavy
Bulky
What are the 4 principal components of glass?
Sand, Soda ash, Limestone, Cullet
Give the components or use of the following components of a glass.
Sand, Soda ash, limestone, cullet, Boron OXIDE, Aluminum oxide, lead
Sand - mainly silica
Soda ash - sodium carbonate
limestone - calcium carbonate
cullet - a broken glass that is used as a fusion agent
lead - used for clarity and brilliance
aluminum oxide - for glass durability and resistance to chemical reactions
boron - used to help melting process
What are the 4 basic processes in production of glass?
Pressing
Blowing
Drawing
Casting
In 4 basic processes in the production of glass:
- Uses COMPRESSED AIR to molten glass in the cavity of a metal mold.
- MOST COMMERCIAL BOTTLES ARE PRODUCED BY THIS METHOD.
Blowing
In 4 basic processes in the production of glass:
- Molten glass is pulled through dies or rollers that shape the soft glass.
- ITEMS THAT ARE UNIFORM IN DIAMETER ARE PRODUCED BY THIS METHOD.
Drawing
In 4 basic processes in the production of glass:
- Mechanical force is used to press the molten glass against the mold
Pressing
