Silverson high shear mixers are widely used in the manufacture of paints, inks and coatings.  The high shear action of the rotor/stator workhead can rapidly disintegrate and dissolve resins and polymers, disperse pigments and other raw materials including “functional” ingredients.

Typical applications include:

• Redispersion of filter cake
• Manufacture of coding and marking inks
• Dispersion of Titanium Dioxide
• Dispersion of Bentonite
• Dispersion of Fumed Silica (Aerosil^®)
• Polymer/Pigment dispersion in the textile industry

For more specific information on these applications, please see the reports below.
