First, let&#8217;s look at the definitions. A mixer is a device that is generally used in cooking for mixing food products. In fact, a mixer simply mixes the components in a container. As for a disperser, it grinds the raw material, producing a homogeneous mixture.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Theoretically, it is possible to produce emulsions (suspensions) with a mixer, but because the large particles will still be present, the emulsion will not be stable, and in the course of time it will break.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">There is another appliance that is similar in purpose &#8211; a homogenizer. It mixes solid and liquid components to obtain mixtures of uniform consistency. Homogenization, partially include dispersing, but rather as an additional effect, and not the main process. Functionally, a homogenizer is a mixer for industrial use.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><em><strong>GlobeCore<\/strong><\/em> advises you not to puzzle over what you need more: a homogenizer or a disperser, and choose a universal option. Colloid mill KLM is at the same time a homogenizer and a disperser. This unit obtains highly stable colloidal solutions, ultrathin suspensions, mixtures and emulsions with particle size 1 \u03bcm. This result is provided by a number of factors that occur in a colloid mill:<\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li>centrifugal forces;<\/li>\n<li>high relative speed between rotor and stator;<\/li>\n<li>grinding;<\/li>\n<li>cavitation;<\/li>\n<li>increased turbulence, etc.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><em><strong>GlobeCore<\/strong><\/em> colloid mills can easily integrate into existing production lines to increase their efficiency. The components are fed into the mill at a certain ratio of solid and liquid phases to provide a constant productivity.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A question that is often asked: why do we need a disperser, when we already have a mixer?
