Which features of powder affect flowability?

Flowability is influenced by many factors, such as particle size distribution, particle shape, density, and electrostatic state, among which the particle size distribution and particle shape are the most important elements. For example, according to research, the decrease in the proportion of the particles whose sizes are smaller than 100μm is conducive to increasing flowability.
