Flowable Platelets
Loosely agglomerated platelets for easier processing
Flowable Platelet or "FP" powders are loosely agglomerated into large particles to allow for improved flowability during dry handling, but break down during processing to their primary platelet particles. FP30 is made up of 30 µm platelets and includes a calcium-containing binder phase, ideal for applications without stringent purity requirements that are cost-sensitive. FP12 is a higher purity option, with 12 µm primary platelets.
