PMS
Colloid Mill ® is used frequently for suspension or emulsion preparation. It provides extremely high shearing force. Colloid mil is favored over homogenizing mixer when the emulsion is viscous or when suspended solid are present in the
mixture.
Theory
of Operation Function of PMS
Colloid Mill ® is to disperse, emulsify and reduce the size of solid particles into fine uniform particle size. It grinds, mixes and blends product in a more economical and faster way. Rate of throughput varies inversely with the product viscosity.
The action of colloid mill is based on the shear produced between cone-shaped discs, one of which is stationary while the other rotates at a high velocity. The distance between two discs can be varied, thereby affecting the amount of shear applied to particular system.
The suspension or emulsion is gravity fed into the hopper. The suspended particles are forced through the adjustable gap between the stationary and the rotating discs. The sheared and homogenized particles are then passed out through the bottom of the mill. The product can be recycled if required until the desired product condition is achieved.
