The test results were evaluated in terms of particle size and powder flowability as a function of liquid material dosage and grinding time. The study revealed that the use of any kind of liquid materials tested improved the grinding process compared to the without-aid condition. Removing the water content (RBW) in BW resulted in further improvements in both particle size and powder flowability. The findings from both the BW and W data revealed that the dose increase does not yield favorable outcomes in relation to the ffp index. Nevertheless, there was a noticeable enhancement in particle fineness. © 2023 Union of Chambers of Engineers and Architects of Turkey.
