1. Mixing Technologies In The Pharmaceutical And Medical Industries 3/1/2018

   Mixing equipment employed in the production of pharmaceuticals and medical devices deal with a higher level of complexity because their use is more specialized. Not one design fits all.

2. High Viscosity Mixer Designs and Applications 9/22/2011
   The aim of this paper is to provide a brief compilation of technical and practical information on high viscosity mixing based on the collective experience of Charles Ross mixing experts.

5. How To Choose The Right Mixer For High-Viscosity Mixing Applications 5/8/2009
   A few years ago, the process of selecting a mixer for most applications was straight- forward. When increased demand required an increase in production, process engineers were naturally inclined to choose the type of mixer that had worked before in the same application. When they began talking to equipment manufacturers, their questions focused on capacity, auxiliary equipment, projected delivery and price. Many tested equipment before signing a purchase order.

6. Improvements To The Mixing Step Can Lead To Big Rewards 11/9/2008
   A semi-continuous process is beneficial to maintaining a clean and streamlined batch mixing operation without compromising the level of control over discrete units of production. The semi-continuous mixing procedure is achieved by utilizing a change-can design mixer. With multiple vessels, one mix could be at the loading stage, another under the mixer, another at the discharge step, and yet another at the cleanup stage.

7. Understanding Surfactants And New Methods Of Dispersing Them 3/26/2008
   Surface-active agents, or surfactants for short, are compounds that lower the surface tension of a liquid and lower the interfacial tension between two liquids. Surfactants are amphiphilic in nature, possessing both hydrophilic and lipophilic properties. The unique combination of these opposing properties in the same molecule is what enables a surfactant to reduce surface and interfacial tensions. Submitted by Charles Ross and Son Company
8. White Paper: A New & Patented High-Speed Mixer Design Has Expanded High-Energy, High-Shear Rotor/Stator Mixing Capabilities 5/25/2007

   An innovative rotor/stator generator developed at Ross is capable of ultra-high shear mixing, dispersion, emulsification, homogenization and particle size reduction. Unlike other mixers that apply intense shearing action, this one does not force manufacturers to choose between a high shear rate and a high flow rate. It delivers both.

   A few years ago, the process of selecting a mixer for most applications was straight- forward. When increased demand required an increase in production, process engineers were naturally inclined to choose the type of mixer that had worked before in the same application. When they began talking to equipment manufacturers, their questions focused on capacity, auxiliary equipment, projected delivery and price. Many tested equipment before signing a purchase order. But they were mainly exercising “due diligence” - they were simply looking for proof that the mixer would work. The selection process is more complex today, because the capabilities of the most widely used mixers have expanded steadily during the last decade

10. White Paper: New High Speed Mixer Designs Allow More Efficient Development and Scale-Up 5/25/2007

    Work in a typical lab is aimed at achieving a long list of goals in product development. But every aspect of business in the lab is also driven by a collection of chronic shortages. Space for equipment in the lab is always tight, and virtually every lab manager will tell you that his lab is under-funded. During the last few years, new directions in product development have added to the challenge of managing R&D
