Abstract
Provided are processes of preventing or eliminating caking of particulate materials during milling operations. Processes include the addition of an anti-caking additive such as a rosin, abietic acid, fatty acid, or derivative of any of the foregoing to a mill prior to or along with a particulate chemical, and milling the combination. The addition of the anti-caking additive prevents or reduces the amount of caking observed thereby increasing yields and maintaining or enhancing the resulting properties of the milled product.
