Colloid mill

A colloid mill is a machine that is used to reduce the particle size of a solid in suspension in a liquid, or to reduce the droplet size in emulsions. Colloid mills work on the rotor-stator principle: a rotor turns at high speeds (2000–18000 RPM[1]). A high level of hydraulic shear[clarification needed] stress is applied on the fluid which results in disrupting and breaking down the structure. Colloid mills are frequently used to increase the stability of suspensions and emulsions, but can also be used to reduce the particle size of solids in suspensions.[1] Higher shear rates lead to smaller droplets, down to approximately 1 μm[2] which are more resistant to emulsion separation.
