Technical Brief: Mixing High Solids Formulations
4/15/2011
Mixer selection for high solids formulations depends on viscosity rather than percent solids. Regardless of solids concentration, low-viscosity mixtures can be prepared in single-shaft rotor/stator mixers or high-speed dispersers. By Charles Ross and Son Company

Vertical Blender/Dryers Deliver High Drying Rates With Negligible Risk Of Product Attrition
2/11/2011
Agitated dryers give significantly higher drying rates per unit heating area than non-agitated systems such as ovens and tray dryers. This is due to continuous renewal of solids in contact with the dryer’s heated surfaces. By Charles Ross and Son Company

Tech Brief: Ultra-High Shear Mixers Increase Overall Throughput And Efficiency Of Homogenization Processes
1/5/2011
Several types of mixing systems are utilized for combining raw materials into a pre-mix. There are gentle agitation devices such as low speed propellers, turbines or paddle agitators. Better quality pre-mixes are achieved through the use of high speed devices like open-disc saw-tooth blades and high shear rotor/stator mixers. By Charles Ross and Son Company

Ultra-High Shear Mixers Increase Overall Throughput And Efficiency Of Homogenization Processes
1/5/2011
Many fine emulsions and dispersions require multiple passes through a high pressure homogenizer to achieve the final droplet or particle size distribution. By Charles Ross and Son Company

Tech Brief: Apply High Speed Powder Induction To Eliminate Dusting In The Mixing Area
1/4/2011
When poured from one open vessel into another, lightweight solids easily become airborne and can require extensive clean up. The most serious concern however is the impact of dusting on plant safety. By Charles Ross and Son Company

Tech Brief: Run Your Rotor/Stator Mixer At Maximum Speed To Optimize Particle Size Reduction
1/4/2011
High shear mixers feature a four-blade rotor running at tip speeds in the range of 3,000-4,000 feet/min within a close tolerance fixed stator. Running the rotor at a particular tip speed yields a corresponding equilibrium, which can be represented through the size distribution of a dispersion or emulsion. By Charles Ross and Son Company
