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.
