S01 – Develop a behavioral R&D study on a rheometer for the food, cosmetics or pharmaceutical industries

2 days – 14 p.m.

March 22-23, 2022

Grenoble

€1 excl. tax/share.

(Lunches included)

Objectives

During this two-day advanced training, participants will learn how to develop Behavioral R&D approaches on a rheometer for common products in the agri-food, cosmetics or pharmaceutical sectors and the issues associated with their usual implementation contexts (mixed, pumping, dosage and other process or application of interest to participants). Participants will learn to:

  • Analyze a problem of behavior or transformation of materials of the type gel, emulsion, dough, from the angle of the industrial phenomenology
  • Determine the approaches of interest according to the context and the instrumental tools
  • Handle the main settings of rheometric techniques, understand the measured parameters and their relationship to empirical behaviors
  • Interpret measurement data with regard to a problem

Improvement

  • Players in the agri-food, cosmetics and pharmaceutical sectors

Engineer / Technician of R&D / Innovation / Laboratory services

Prerequisites: Industrial R&D experience

Participation in P01 or P02 recommended

10 people max

INDUSTRIAL PHENOMENOLOGY OF GELIFIED PRODUCTS, PASTY, EMULSIONS, SUSPENSIONS (Day 1 – 9h/12h)

  • Understand the properties, mechanisms and structures associated with the behaviors and transformations of formulated products and their sensitivity to the conditions of implementation
  • Identify the material/implementation conditions couplings associated with common industrial processes and the associated phenomena
  • Anticipate possible influencing factors and behaviors to be quantified
  • Analyze the contributions and limits of usual practices in R&D, industrialization, problem solving, etc.

DEVELOPING A BEHAVIORAL R&D APPROACH (Day 1 – 14pm-17pm)

  • Start from the context and question the available information
  • Evaluate the contributions and limits of the usual techniques and measures in relation to the issues, phenomena and behaviors of interest
  • Estimate the thermomechanical constraints associated with the implementation (thermal, shear, kinetic, etc.)
  • Determine the degrees of freedom in the face of problems and the appropriate means for the instrumental study of representative parameters and influencing factors
  • Building an R&D study approach

PUT INTO ACTION (Day 2 – 9am-12pm – 14pm-17pm)

  • Discovery of the approach on rheometric instrumentation on case study: Rheology of emulsion – Texture and TPA – Thermomechanical behavior of gelled products – Stability of suspensions
  • Data analysis
  • Interpretation and use of measurement data according to the objectives
