Nutri-Binder® SUPER POWDER
|
| GENERAL
INFORMATION Nutri-Binder® SUPER POWDER is a new high performance binder for pelletizing animal feeds. SUPER POWDER is a novel, grain based binder that has been modified to enhance pellet mill efficiency. SUPER POWDER is a pelleting aid that can provide die lubrication, mill power reduction/ton, fines reduction, and increased pellet durability because of its extraordinary binding benefits. SUPER POWDER is designed to be used in the 2-6 lb/ton range. Its properties have been balanced in such a manner as to provide optimum binding capabilties at low concentrations. In addition to its exceptional binding capabilities and the fact that it is primarily derived from grain, SUPER POWDER can be used on a pound-for-pound replacement of any grain component in feed formulations. Because of its low inclusion concentrations, SUPER POWDER reduces the amount of binder inventory and storage space required for conventional binders. TYPICAL PROPERTIES
SUGGESTED APPLICATIONS SUPER POWDER can be used in almost any type of animal feed formulation. It is effective at low concentration rates in the formation of pellets, blocks, and range cubes. It is particularly effective in high-fat containing formulations and aquatic feed formulations. RECOMMENDATIONS Most conventional binders and some specialty binders are normally used
in the range of 2.5% or 50 lb/ton of animal feed in order to achieve minimum fines
production and good pellet durability. SUPER POWDER is recommended for use at
concentrations of 2 to 6 lb/ton. Effectiveness and effieciency at given
concentration will vary with mill operating conditions and specific feed formulations.

SUPER POWDER should be added to dry feed ingredients and blended uniformly prior to being introduced to preconditioning units, pelletizers, cubes, block formers, or other forming operations. Since it is used in small quantities, SUPER POWDER should be added as the last ingredient in the mixer. It should never be added first or in the bottom of the mixer. Steam activation prior to the forming process will enhance the effectiveness of SUPER POWDER. Some block forming operations and formulas may require added steam or moisture in order to bring the temperature in the center of the block up above 100°F. PACKAGING SUPER POWDER is available in 50 lb multi-wall, Kraft paper bags. PRECAUTIONS SUPER POWDER is an environmentally safe product to handle. See Material Safety Data Sheet for specific information concerning storage, handling, transportations and safety/health requirements. STORAGE AND HANDLING SUPER POWDER stores well and remains stable under normal storage conditions. SUPER POWDER is non-hygroscopic, but precautions should be taken to make sure the product is stored in a dry area protected from wet weather. Although SUPER POWDER exhibits long-term shelf life, it is recommended that inventory be turned on a regular basis. It is not ordinarily receommended that the product be stored for more than a year. Precautions should also be taken to protect the product from exposure to rodents and insects. AVAILABILITY SUPER POWDER is directly available from Industrial Grain Products and through local distributors and representatives in various areas.
