What kind of material is the colloid mill suitable for? Can it be used for grinding or crushing?

Colloid mills are suitable for fluid and semi-liquid materials. The working principle is that the motor drives the rotating teeth (or the rotor) through the belt drive to rotate with the matching fixed teeth (or stator), and one of them rotates at a high speed. The other is stationary, and the material to be processed is pressurized by its own weight or external pressure (which can be generated by the pump) to produce a downward spiral impact force, which is subjected to strong shearing through the gap between the fixed and rotating teeth (the gap is adjustable). The physical effects of force, friction, high-frequency vibration, high-speed vortex, etc., make the material effectively emulsified, dispersed, homogenized and pulverized to achieve the effect of superfine pulverization and emulsification of the material.
Therefore, strictly speaking, the colloid mill is called a wet pulverizer, and it has two types of vertical colloid mill and split colloid mill.
