Superior Chemical Processing for Industrial Applications
Chemical and Industrial Applications with Microfluidizer® Process Technology
Microfluidics helps leading chemical companies reduce particle size to a submicron level to create stable nanoemulsions and suspensions. As droplet size decreases and particles are more uniformly dispersed, the effectiveness of high-performance materials increases.
Microfluidizer® high shear fluid homogenizers are also used to disperse carbon nanotubes, achieve high color strength and gloss, and reduce the amount of volatile organic compounds by increasing water content.
Microfluidizer® processors are frequently used for chemical applications, including:
- Inkjet inks, conductive inks and toners
- Carbon nanotubes
- Resins, extenders and additives
- Indoor and outdoor sealants
- Easily dissolvable waxes
- Electrodes for fuel cells and batteries
- Pigments for LCD screens and portable electronics
- Polymers, adhesives, preservatives, rheological agents, lubricants and more
