You come upon a new, intriguing technology, but is it right for you? What type of investment will you need to make, and will it even do what you need it to? That is the beauty of the testing process for raw materials. With minimal commitment, you can see if it works. How well it works. If it hits your …
Purity. Absorption. Emulsification. Consistency. Cycle times. Expensive ingredients. Are these some of the challenges you face when milling or processing raw ingredients or materials for cosmetics and skincare? When high-quality materials are processed to nano-level particles they can increase skin penetration, absorption, product stability, and the shelf life of skincare products, cosmetics, conditioners, lotions, and perfumes. If you are a …
When it comes to processing ceramics and electronics materials, the right method can amplify electrical properties. Originally used primarily as insulating materials, technological developments in material science have highlighted the conductive properties of ceramics. As we discussed in the Introduction to Star Burst, processing or homogenizing particles to nano-level size can improve their efficacy. Processing raw materials for ceramic and …
The demand for affordable, efficient batteries is ever-increasing. As a result of the automotive industry’s increased production of hybrid and electric vehicles and the effort to manage climate change with alternative, clean fuel sources, the global battery market is growing faster than expected. The need to process raw battery materials is growing along with it. But processing battery materials cleanly …
MATERIAL PROCESSING: A better alternative. The properties of materials are dictated by both their composition and structure. Material processing can change the functionality of raw materials, delivering enhanced properties such as increased conductivity, greater surface area, and homogenization. But currently, there are limited ways to process materials. Is there a better way? Many people rely on bead milling for material …
