Size reduction techniques are used in a number of industries, namely, biotech, pharmaceutical, cosmetics industry, etc.
Size reduction by itself involves a number of benefits. It helps improve the shelf life of the product. It also gives a better appearance, texture, and taste to the final product.
These advantages vary from industry to industry. In the Chemical Industry, size reduction helps increase the surface conductivity, gives the product smoother surface quality, and allows higher particle packing. It also increases the overall quality of the product. Some examples of such products are pastes, ink dispersions, adhesives, etc.
For the pharmaceutical industry, the particle size reduction helps the drug perform more efficiently. It increases the absorption and uptake of the drug in the body. Uniform particle size results in better oral bioavailability which in turn increases the drug’s efficacy.
Clearly, a piece of equipment that allows us to achieve all this has several advantages.
- The use of the appropriate size reduction equipment allows the generation of uniform particle size.
- It also helps increase the overall surface area or viscosity of the material.
- This increase in surface area results in a higher rate of absorption. Smaller the particle, greater is the absorption. Better the size reduction equipment, smaller is the particle.
Steps are being taken by industries to make the modern size reduction equipment more energy efficient. It’s important to choose the wrong equipment for your use. The choice of the right equipment is detrimental. It may do more harm than good.
