High-pressure homogenizerThe selection method:
1. The smallest trial amount: the smaller the better, which can save materials. At present, the raw materials for some drugs reach several thousand yuan/gram, and users naturally hope to complete a homogenization experiment with the least amount of materials. And the experiment is a repeated process, the smaller the sample size, the more materials are wasted.
2. Cleaning and sterilization: Imported high-pressure homogenizers are very convenient for cleaning and sterilization, and it is recommended to consider online cleaning and sterilization.
3. Homogenization pressure: The higher the working pressure, the better. Firstly, in a sense, the higher the pressure, the smaller the particle size of the material can be processed; Secondly, the higher the pressure, the more types of materials can be processed. For example, some liquid emulsions can be homogenized to below 100nm at 15000psi, while some drugs, foods, and especially suspensions with a certain amount of solid particles in the liquid require a pressure of at least 26000psi to achieve nanoscale.
4. Processing effect: Users certainly hope to produce materials that can reach the nanometer level, and are evenly distributed at the same time, rather than some particles being tens of nanometers while others are still micrometer level. To solve this problem, it is recommended that users have the manufacturer provide a nanoscale filtering extruder device when purchasing a homogenizer. It is an online extruder, and offline extrusion is very troublesome.
5. Consider the noise level, safety, and number of users in China from the perspective of a device. From the user list, it can be determined whether a device has good quality. The more users there are, the better the quality of the device.
Manufacturers of homogenizers usually claim that their equipment is excellent, and it is recommended to ask them to provide a list of users and relevant achievements, papers, etc.
By examining the above aspects, one can compare various aspects of high-pressure homogenizer equipment and determine which equipment they need the most
