Mixing specialist Chemineer has extended its range of High Shear Pipeline In-fixers and In-tank Homogenisers with the addition of the Greerco Colloid Mill. This processing unit is said to be specifically designed to rapidly and uniformly disperse solids and/or liquids for a wide range of,manufacturing applications including pigments (Plate 7).
Available as a horizontal unit for continuous in-line processing, or as mobile vertical mixer, with hopper for batch production, the Greerco Colloid Mill is said to produce stable emulsions to the sub micron range, repeatedly reproducing unvarying particle-size accuracy and distribution for any emulsion or suspension – liquids in liquids or solids in liquids.

The standard Rotor Stator is ideal for most emulsions and dispersions, while the special grooved Rotor/Stator is designed for viscous emulsions. This unit reportedly reduces the dispersed phase droplets to an extremely small size – usually 2 microns or less, with many droplets in the sub micron range.
