Twin-screw lab line can test dispersion.


Leistritz in Somerville, N.J., has equipped its three smallest lab models of corotating and counter-rotating twin-screw extruders with a gear pump A Gear pump uses the meshing of gears to pump fluid by displacement. They are one of the most common types of pumps for hydraulic fluid power applications. Gear pumps however are also widely used in chemical installations to pump fluid with a certain viscosity. , screen pack, and software to assess dispersion dispersion, in chemistry
dispersion, in chemistry, mixture in which fine particles of one substance are scattered throughout another substance. A dispersion is classed as a suspension, colloid, or solution.

 on the screen pack and create spreadsheet and graphic reports that provide a relative measure of dispersion quality.(As we reported in July, measuring filtration pressure rise is the basis of the new European DIN-EN Filter-Pressure-Value test for melt dispersibility of masterbatches, but the European test typically uses a single-screw extruder.) This system can also provide extra filtration for low-volume specialty production. Tel: (908) 685-2333 * PT Direct: 731HD
