INLINE HIGH SHEAR MIXER FOR COSMETIC CREAMS AND LOTIONS
Cosmetic creams and lotions are used for a variety of purposes such as cleansing and moisturizing. The ingredients of these will be different according to the desired use, however to some extent the basic manufacturing process is the same.
THE PROCESS
Products can be either an oil-in-water or water-in-oil emulsion, consisting of emollients and lubricants dispersed in an oil phase, and a water phase containing emulsifying and thickening agents, perfume, color and preservatives. Active ingredients are dispersed in either phase depending on the raw materials and the desired properties of the end product. A typical manufacturing process would be as follows:
- Flake/powder ingredients, such as cetyl alcohol and stearic acid, sometimes dry blended in advance, are dispersed into the oil phase. Heating may be required to melt some of the ingredients.
- Active ingredients are dispersed in the appropriate phase.
- The water phase, containing emulsifiers and stabilizers such as Veegum® or Carbopol®, is prepared separately.
- The two phases are then mixed to form an emulsion. This is aided by heating to between 110 - 185℉ (45 - 85℃) depending on the formulation and viscosity.
- Mixing is continued until the end product is homogeneous.
THE PROBLEM
Using conventional agitators a number of problems can be encountered:
- Some ingredients can form agglomerates which conventional agitators cannot break down.
- Hydration of thickening and suspending agents is one of the most difficult of all mixing operations. Agglomerates can easily form and some ingredients require shear in order to develop their desired properties.
- When adding powdered ingredients to the vessel, partially hydrated materials can build up on the vessel wall and parts of the agitator.
- Agitators cannot easily form stable emulsions even when the oil and water phases have been heated.
- Long process times and additional equipment are often required to achieve a homogeneous product.
THE SOLUTION
Bonve offers its inline high shear mixers for Cosmetic Creams and Lotions Production. It is an efficient type machine with mixing, dispersion, breaking, dissolution, refinery, homogenization and emulsifying. An ideal machine to be instead of colloid mill, ball mill and high pressure homogenizer. The machine can greatly simplify the traditional productions and upgrade the production efficiency and product quality.
WORKING PRINCIPLE
The main parts are stators and rotors. At centrifugal and fluid forces created by rapid turning of the rotors, the stators exercise on the materials with strong power shearing, centrifugal pressing, breaking, fluid friction, turbulent. The processed materials (solid, fluid and gas phase) are quickly refined, homogenized, dis-aggregated and emulsified. The repeat of this process can result in stable and high-quality products.
PRODUCT lINE: FHM1 AND FHM3 SERIES
Bonve emulsifying and homogenizing shear pumps are mainly devided into 2 series based on different numbers of rotor and stator, working types. (The pump with 2-stage rotor and stage can be made too)
