Densities and powder flow properties of NEPS, AMEPS, and S1500®.

Powder properties	Air-dried NEPS	Spray-dried NEPS	Oven-dried AMEPS	Spray-dried AMEPS	Starch 1500®
Bulk density (g/mL)	^a	^b
Tapped density (g/m)
Hausner’s ratio	^a	^b
Carr’s index (%)	^a	^b
Angle of repose (^o)
Flow rate (g/sec)

Angle of repose and flow rate could not be determined. ^a vs. oven-dried AMEPS. ^b vs. spray-dried AMEPS.
