Microfluidics

Microfluidics International Corp. is a Unit of IDEX MPT, Inc. Microfluidics is a global company producing superior high shear fluid processors. Our technology delivers unrivalled results in creating uniform nanoemulsions or encapsulations (liposomes). This technology can produce repeatable uniform particle size reduction that gives liquids a transparent appearance which is invaluable in the creation of clear water liquids. They offer increased bioavailability and formulation stability offering enhanced consumer safety. The technology is also guaranteed to scale up so results achieved in the lab can be transferred to full-scale manufacturing. Microfluidizer Processors ensure that every mL of material gets the same high shear treatment.

The key to the Microfluidizer® processor technology’s remarkable efficiency is the design of our exclusive fixed-geometry Interaction Chamber™. As fluids are forced at constant pressures and controlled temperatures through the unique Interaction Chamber™, materials experience extreme shear forces, yielding precisely controlled particle size reductions and strikingly tight particle size distribution curves.

The ability to control the level of shearing provides customers the flexibility to use less energy to achieve particle size reduction targets — which are often smaller than those possible using ordinary homogenizer technologies.
