Abstract

The looseness of starch powder is investigated, depending on the concentration of nanodimensional silicon dioxide powder (tarkosil) in it, by measuring the angle of the natural slope and the consumption of the flow of starch mixed with this powder through calibrated funnels with various diameters. It is found that adding small amounts of tarkosil substantially affects the angle of natural slope and increases the looseness of starch.
