Dry Blending
|
 Compounding Solutions can provide anything from highly technical compounding needs to very basic homogenization of your existing pelletized resins and powders. This can be done in quantities as little as one pound or scale up to truck loads as needed via ribbon or tumble blending. As a simple example the blending of High Density Polyethylene and Low Density Polyethylene to create a Medium Density Polyethylene can be done in a dry blending method simply by effective drum mixing. Many organization do this by tumbling materials in a plastic bag or in any bin available for on demand needs. Our team has taken a more science based approach and removed the human element to ensure consistency.
Through the years, we have used several different effective methods however we have conducted validation trials to confirm the best methods. Based on quantities and materials types we have paths for the most effective homogenization. Experimenting with a range of bin sizes and fill levels we have found that adjusting these parameters will provide the best distribution possible for your needs. Overfilling the bins will create problems as will underfilling. A balance of both fill level and time in agitation provide consistency. |
