What are homogenizers?
Homogenizers promote the easy blending different polymers and improve their compatibility with each other. They ensure that mixed rubber batches are compact and increase mixing efficiency, thereby resulting in improved and faster distribution along with greater homogeneity.
Homogenizers often increase the tackiness of compounds, while also improving flow properties and optimising the mechanical properties of the vulcanisate. For example, in butyl rubber, the use of a good homogeniser like EezeeMix lowers gas permeability, in addition to improving processability and filler distribution.
Uses of homogenizers
Homogenizers improve the homogeneity of polymer blends with different polarities and viscosities, and other compounding ingredients can also be mixed fast. They also improve processing performance and batch uniformity.
