coating flow-characteristics (properties)

I think there may well be a context and it is the table. Without it, we don't know what 'characteristics' are given but the word characteristics covers all possible table data.

Reference:

Dragée

You want to look to candy making. Dragée is a hard sugar coating, like Jordan almonds. It is made from confectionary sugar and egg whites. It is also used to coat pills that have a bitter flavor to make them easier to take. I am pretty sure that the dragéfløde is a name for a pre-made commercial mix that achieves the same effect. So you might just have to look into commercial candy making to find your answer.
Note from asker:
Thank you! I would never have thought of looking at confectionery to research this. So, perhaps simply just use 'dragee flow'?
