ACURACY, REPEATABILITY, & PURITY
IN CHEMICAL DEVELOPMENT
Chemical blending applications create unique challenges for conventional industrial mixing systems. Resodyn Acoustic Mixers, Inc. has the experience, knowledge, and products to solve these challenges and streamline the industrial chemical mixing process.
The chemical industry relies on consistency and quality for performance, effectiveness, and value. ResonantAcoustic® Mixers (RAM) deliver safe processing capabilities that expand and expedite product development, and seamlessly scale up to industrial production.
RAM mixers provide 10X faster mixing and dispersion rates with increased intra-batch uniformity and consistency. Both heating and cooling systems can be applied for tighter reactive process control and increased consistency of the chemical blending process.
Rapid emulsification and extended life suspensions provide immense benefits to chemical mixing with RAM.
Applications for RAM products in the Chemical Industry is uncapped and inclusive of:
- Catalysts
- Chlorinated Organics
- Epoxy Hardeners
- Floatation Reagents
- Gas Storage Materials
- Lubricant Pastes & Oils
- Mechanochemistry
- Optical Brighteners
- PVB Emulsions
- Specialty Chemicals
- Technical Polymers
- Thermal Transfer Materials
INDUSTRY EXPERT
TESTIMOMIALS
“ResonantAcoustic® Mixing (RAM) enables mechanochemical organic synthesis that avoids milling or crushing media, as well as bulk solvents. The RAM methodology enables significant simplification and improvement of mechanochemical olefin metathesis, the first mechanochemical strategy for ene-yne metathesis, and permits the direct, 200-fold scaling-up of the mechanochemical synthesis of pharmaceutically active sulfonylureas, without any significant changes to reaction conditions or conversion. ”
- Angewandte Chemie International Edition, 2022
“Our Testing with ResonantAcoustic® technology has demonstrated filler incorporation at phenomenal rates and with very little viscous heating. This technology could have a far broader impact on the Chemical Industry than anyone is imagining today”
- Senior Process engineering specialist – Global Chemical Company
“The use of resonant acoustic mixing as a simple, rapid and readily scalable methodology for synthesizing metal–organic frameworks of different levels of complexity, including two- and three-dimensional networks, has been demonstrated”
–Chemical Science, 2020

Polymer and Viscous Liquid Blending
Many polymer based processing applications require additional ingredients for performance or coloration. To illustrate RAM’s ability to quickly and thoroughly mix ingredients of different characteristics, 2.5 grams of food coloring was blended with 235 grams of a polymer surrogate. The final mixture shows the liquid fully dispersed within the polymer due to the unique and effective mixing action captured in the high speed footage.
Uniform Blending of Dissimilar Powders
Dry ingredients can be difficult to thoroughly and consistently mix, particularly when the particles are of different sizes and characteristics. To illustrate effective and rapid mixing, 10 grams of fumed silica is blended with 100 grams of sand. Completed specimens exhibit no airborne fumed silica, demonstrating uniform blending at an order of magnitude difference in particle size.
