Abstract :Some physical properties of safflower insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(Carthamus tinctorius L.); were determined as a function of moisture content. Also, physical properties such as dimensions, geometric mean diameter, sphericity, 1000 seeds mass, bulk and seed densi-ty, terminal velocity, projected area and porosity were measured at three moisture content levels insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(5.61 %, 14.08 % and 23.32 d.b. %);. The values of length, mass, geometric mean diameter, sphericity, bulk density, seed density, terminal veloci-ty, projected area and porosity were established as 6.89-7.56 mm, 0.035-0.054 g, 4.13-4.70 mm, 0.600-0.623, 526.9-488.6 kg m-3, 1096.7-1187.6 kg m-3, 3.84-5.02 ms-1, 24.60-27.50 mm2 and 52.0- 56.7%, respectively. The coefficient of static friction on an iron sheet and a galvanized sheet were established.
