Materials and methods

Test guideline

Qualifier:

no guideline followed

Principles of method if other than guideline:

The bulk density of the powders was measured by weighing 2 g of sample and placing it in a 50 ml graduated cylinder. The cylinder was tapped by hand five times and the bulk density was calculated by dividing the mass of the powder by the volume occupied in the cylinder.
