Toothpaste Making Machine High Speed Dispersers and High Shear Mixers
High Speed Disperser and High Shear Mixer
Toothpaste manufacturers rely on a range of mixers to achieve a variety of processing goals, including powder wetting and dispersion, hydration of gums and polymers,
Homogenization of two or more liquids of different viscosities, and degassing (vacuum mixing). For example, CHASING high-speed dispersing machines are used to prepare intermediate slurries and solutions. Disperser in the high-speed disperser create a vortex into which solids can be added for quick incorporation into batches. Acceptable flow patterns and turnover rates are readily achieved in dispersions with viscosities up to approximately 50,000 cP.
Toothpaste ingredients such as silica, carbomer, xanthan gum, CMC, carrageenan, and other thickeners do not mix easily into liquids. When added from the top of a stirred batch, these powders often form the infamous "fish eye" clumps that are difficult to separate. This difficult-to-disperse ingredient is best handled by subsurface powder induction in CHASING high-shear mixers.
The High Shear Mixer/Homogenizer consists of a unique rotor/stator generator specifically designed to create a powerful vacuum that draws and injects powders directly into the high shear zone. Since solids and liquids combine precisely where vigorous mixing occurs, fish eye formation is greatly reduced, if not eliminated. From water-like up to 200,000 cP.
