Star Burst™


Super fine particles, minimal contamination.

Star Burst™ is a wet-type pulverizing - or wet jet milling - device to disperse, emulsify, pulverize, and reform surfaces of raw materials by obliquely colliding the particles pressurized up to 245 MPa at the relative velocity of Mach 4 .

Star Burst™ is a wet-type pulverizing - or wet jet milling - device to disperse, emulsify, pulverize, and reform surfaces of raw materials by obliquely colliding the particles pressurized up to 245 MPa at the relative velocity of Mach 4 .

Top Features

Minimal Contamination

Star Burst does not use any grinding media, resulting in a minimum amount of contamination.

Scalability

From R&D projects to full production, you can scale up easily with common settings across all models.

Shorter Processing Time

Star Burst boasts a shorter processing time than other available technologies, meaning you can get more done, faster.

The solution for super fine particles.

The "Star Burst" is a wet-type pulverizing - or wet jet milling - device to disperse, emulsify, pulverize, and reform surfaces of raw materials by obliquely colliding the particles pressurized up to 245 MPa at the relative velocity of Mach 4 .

Features

Minimum Contamination
Star Burst does not use any grinding media, resulting in a minimum amount of contamination.

Homogenized Particle Size
Uniform particle with narrow particle size distribution can be achieved by controlling the injection speed of raw material slurry.

High Pulverizing Capability
Nano-level pulverizing or dispersing is effectively achieved in a short period of time without short path of raw materials.

Various Applications
This device is capable of pulverizing raw material slurry with a viscosity of up to 5,000 MPas or up to 50 wt%. Slurry with hard particles is also applicable, by using our original sealing structure and nozzle made of single crystal diamonds.

Solves problems that commonly occur when homogenizing particles.


Processing or homogenizing particles to nano-level size can improve their efficacy. Homogenization of particles refers to the process of reducing the average diameter of a material's particles uniformly.
