The Dangers of Overhead Stirrer in Cannabinoid Distribution
An Even Distribution of Knowledge – High-Shear Homogenizer vs Overhead Stirrer Solving Disbursement Issues with High-Shear Homogenizers There’s a serious malinformation infiltrating the cannabis industry. No, we’re not speaking of legal entities attempting to block access to this healing herb. This harmful growth comes from the very manufacturers and companies who’ve tirelessly worked to alter…
Read MoreSpecifying a High Viscosity Stirrer
Labs and pilot plants mixing high viscosity materials place special performance requirements on their overhead stirrers. Viscosity of a fluid, as defined by Wikipedia, “is a measure of its resistance to gradual deformation by shear stress or tensile stress.” It is due to friction between particles in a fluid that move at different velocities. As…

The Chemists Corner is a site dedicated to cosmetic chemists and written by cosmetic chemists. Its mission is primarily helping chemists get employment and being the best chemists they can. Recently while reading much of what’s on Chemists Corner, I thought we might be able to help out a bit with some of the same…
Read MoreHow to Shop for an Overhead Stirrer
Stirring is a common activity in research labs as scientists work to refine processing procedures. Two of the most common techniques are magnetic stirring with or without a hotplate, and overhead stirrers. Benchtop overhead stirrers are not equipped with hotplates. But unlike magnetic stirrers they are able to process larger volume samples and samples with…

How to Select Overhead Stirrer Impellers You’ve settled on a laboratory overhead stirrer to handle mixing and stirring operations in your facility. You’ve matched stirring speed and power along with other over head stirrer features that will help you develop pilot processes that can be scaled to commercial production. This is half the job. To…

Use a Mini Overhead Stirrer for Small Batch Processing Stirring is a common procedure employed when developing new products for commercial introduction. Substantial efficiencies can result when researchers use small batch processing to develop mixing criteria that later scale to commercial production. This can be especially true when costly ingredients are involved. A mini overhead…

How to Specify an Overhead Stirrer If your laboratory or research organization is planning the purchase of an overhead stirrer there are a number of specification issues that should be addressed in writing up a purchase order. First of all, you’ve reached the conclusion that an overhead laboratory stirrer is required due to sample volumes…
