One of the earliest forms of comparison. The pigment/binder ratio is the weight ratio of the sum of the pigments (pigments and fillers) to the binder solids.

The ratio of the volume of pigment to the volume of total nonvolatile material present in a coating. The figure is usually expressed as a percentage.

In the Malcomizing heat treating process the passive oxide surface film of the stainless steel is broken down to permit nitrogen diffusion into the steel, at relatively low temperatures. This increases the Hardness to around 64-68 Rockwell C.

The blade diameter should be roughly 1/3rd the diameter of the vessel...

Most dispersion blades are formed from a circular disk of material, typically 304 stainless steel. Teeth are formed around the perimeter of the disk by cutting slits into the disk and bending the resulting tabs.

Beyond impeller bore configurations, with the Conn styles as well as other louvered or vented styles open area in the center of the impeller must also be considered. Typically, reinforcing discs, taper plates, sandwich the blade to stiffen the disperser disc. Due to the louver placement on the conn blade, the size of these disks, and with small sizes - the diameter of the mounting hub must be considered.

The design of a dispersion system begins by defining the batch size and product characteristics. From there we can begin to determine blade size, types, and number which will then allow us to define shaft rpm and horsepower requirements.

Ideal-Pak Request for Quotation is designed to gather pertinent information for your filling project to allow us to make the best possible recommendations.  Provide details of your filling requirements including; product characteristics, containers details, fill speeds, and accuracies so we can provide a solution to meet your needs.  

PACK EXPO Las Vegas and Healthcare Packaging EXPO are co-located shows at the Las Vegas Convention Center. Your badge allows you to move freely from one show to the other among the South, Central and North halls.

Inverters offer many benefits over traditional mechanical drives with fewer moving parts, larger speed ranges, broader horsepower range, and reduced maintenance.  But they do have limitations the largest of which is their torque characteristics.  sss

In commercial and industrial applications, voltages can be in excess of 1000kV.  Most equipment supplied by DisperseTech will operate at one of several common voltages 208, 240, 480, and 600 volts.  

Paint consists of four basic components: Resin Pigment Solvent Additives The performance of a coating is influenced by the selection of these components and the relationship between them. Several rations play an important function in the overall performance of a coating.
