New Rules of Mixer Specification and Testing
control of flow, heat transfer and shear. · New auxiliary devices have evolved, too, that have revolutionized such mixing. functions as powder induction, wetting out, dispersion, homogenization and. emulsification. The result of this burst of innovation is that the capabilities of these familiar mixers
