Mixing is mankind's oldest process. Mixtures allow for
substances of the nature to be put to good use. Most food,
personal hygiene products and remedies are the results of a
mixing process. In the past, mixing difficulties have occurred
when substances were hard to mix, or the stability of a mixture
was either not achieved or poorly achieved. Having developed new
mixing techniques for a hundred years, IKA can handle difficult
mixing tasks while providing exemplary results. Mixing is the
process of merging several different starting materials in
conjunction with energy input. The multitude of the substances
to be mixed is hard to estimate. We must consider differences
due to their state of aggregation, varied chemical and physical
characteristics. Substance parameters such as density (bulk
density) and viscosity carry great significance during the
mixing process. These parameters will help determine the
expected energy demands, the possible miscibility, and the
stability of the mixture. Depending on the state
