Introduction

ISM ultrasonic processors are integral tools used in various scientific and industrial applications to process materials using ultrasonic waves. Their ability to operate at specific frequencies makes them ideal for tasks that require precise material manipulation at the microscopic level.

Working Principle of ISM Ultrasonic Processor

An ISM ultrasonic processor functions by converting electrical energy into high-frequency sound waves, typically ranging from 20 kHz to 40 kHz. These sound waves are transmitted into the material through a probe or horn. The intense ultrasonic waves cause cavitation in the medium, leading to efficient mixing, dispersion, or emulsification.

Transducer and Probe

The transducer is a core component that transforms electrical power into mechanical vibrations. The probe, usually made from titanium, amplifies these vibrations and concentrates them to a focal point in the material.

Technical Specifications

  • Frequency Range: 20 kHz to 40 kHz
  • Power Output: 100W to 1000W
  • Amplitude: Adjustable from 1 µm to 100 µm
  • Processing Volume: Up to 500 mL in standard configurations
  • Temperature Range: -20°C to 80°C with optional control systems

Applications of ISM Ultrasonic Processors

ISM ultrasonic processors are utilized in a wide array of applications:

  • Cell Disruption: Efficiently breaking down cell walls to release cellular contents.
  • Nanoemulsion and Nanoparticle Synthesis: Creating uniform and stable nanostructures.
  • Sonochemistry: Accelerating chemical reactions by promoting effective mixing.
  • Degassing: Removing dissolved gases from liquids rapidly and effectively.
