What is shear mixing?
Shear mixing is caused by a velocity gradient within the material. Because powder flows are poorly understood at the present time, the effect of variables such as blender size, fill level, or speed of rotation of the blender have on shear rate can be established only qualitatively at best.
What is shear mixer?
A rotor or impeller, together with a stationary component known as a stator , or an array of rotors and stators, is used either in a tank containing the solution to be mixed, or in a pipe through which the solution passes, to create shear. A high-shear mixer can be used to create emulsions, suspensions,…
What is industrial mixer?
Industrial Mixers. Industrial mixers are used for mixing large quantities of material, or materials with higher viscosities and torque requirements. With the right mixer and propeller, industrial mixers can mix up to 1500 gallons (5700 liters) of material with a viscosity of 1000 cps.
