The Silverson Ultramix in-tank mixer is ideal for rapidly wetting out powders including gums and thickeners.

The vigorous mixing action is capable of moving the entire contents of vessels even in difficult shaped containers. For this reason the Ultramix is also ideal for use in vessels with narrow openings and offers considerable advantages for customers using IBCs (tote bins).

The Ultramix is able to draw materials from the top and bottom of the vessel into the workhead where centrifugal force then projects the materials outwards, subjecting them to a shearing action as they pass through the radial slots in the mixing head, allowing it to rapidly incorporate large volumes of powder.

$How to Make Cosmetic Creams & Lotion Manufacturing Process How High Shear Mixing is Driving Sustainable Cosmetics Production Forward: 👉 https://www.silverson.com/us/case-studies/eco-friendly-emulsions-high-shear-mixing-drives-sustainable-cosmetics-forward Cosmetic creams and lotions are typically oil-in-water or water-in-oil emulsions that require precise mixing to achieve desired consistency, stability, and functionality. Conventional mixing methods often struggle with hydrating thickening agents, breaking down agglomerates, and forming stable emulsions. Silverson High Shear Mixers excel in these applications by efficiently dispersing powders, fully hydrating thickeners, and creating a smooth, homogeneous product in a fraction of the time needed by traditional methods. Cosmetic creams and lotions rely on stable, homogenous emulsions for: 🫰 Exceptional skin feel 🧴 Consistent texture 🌱 Enhanced ingredient functionality Traditional mixing methods often result in: ❌ Large droplet sizes ❌ Poor emulsion stability ❌ Extended processing times The Solution – Silverson High Shear Mixers offer: ✅ Fine droplet sizes (2-5 microns, even down to 0.5) ✅ Uniform and stable emulsions in seconds ✅ Scalable results from lab to production 💡 Pro Tip: Experiment with various workheads and mixing speeds to achieve your desired texture ⏱️ Chapters 0:00 Why High Shear Mixing is the Key to a Stable Emulsion 0:34 How to Make a Basic Cosmetic Cream with a Silverson Mixer 0:50 Aqueous Phase Preparation and Emulsification 1:11 High-Shear Mixing for Uniform Droplet Size 1:36 Scaling Cosmetic Production: From R&D to Larger-scale In-Line Mixing #CosmeticProduction #SustainableBeauty #HighShear #Emulsions #ManufacturingSolutions #Silverson 🎬 Watch Next: Related Videos https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=biOG4jRfWxw https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GdJFiDRdSRw Learn More About Cosmetic Emulsion Production: Production of Cosmetic Creams and Lotion: https://www.silverson.com/us/resource-library/application-reports/production-of-cosmetic-creams-and-lotions How to Make Sunscreen: https://www.silverson.com/us/resource-library/application-reports/manufacture-of-sunscreen-creams-and-lotions Stay Connected with Silverson Machines 🔔 Subscribe for more mixing innovations: https://www.youtube.com/@silversonmachines Follow us on LinkedIn for the latest updates & news: https://www.linkedin.com/company/silverson-machines/$

$How to Mix Guar Gum Guar Gum (E412) is readily soluble in cold water, forming a high viscosity solution at low concentrations which increases in viscosity as temperature rises. It is widely used for its gelling, thickening and stabilising effect on emulsions and suspensions and often blended with other rheology modifiers, particularly Xanthan gum as the two combine to give greatly increased effects. If you’re using a conventional agitator the powder must be added carefully at a controlled rate to reduce the formation of agglomerates – but it becomes increasingly difficult to incorporate the powder as viscosity increases. Some formulations contain unnecessarily high levels of gum to compensate for poor yield due to filtering out of agglomerates. Silverson high shear mixers can produce an agglomerate-free dispersion in a fraction of the time taken by conventional agitators. With all Silverson mixers, maximized yield can allow products to be reformulated with reduced gum content, cutting raw material costs and process times. ⏱️ Chapters 0:00 What is Guar Gum and How is it Used? 0:43 How to overcome Guar Gum Lumping Issues 1:08 Achieving Agglomerate-Free Guar Gum Dispersion with Silverson 1:54 Scaling Up: From Batch Mixers to the Flashmix To find out more contact us today or visit our website: https://www.silverson.com/us/resource-library/application-reports/preparation-of-guar-gum-solutions Stay up-to-date with our newest videos by subscribing to our YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@silversonmachines Follow us on LinkedIn for the latest updates & news: https://www.linkedin.com/company/silverson-machines/$
