Evaluation of the Mixing Effectiveness of a New Powder
Mixer

Abstract: The effectiveness of the new powder
mixer Canguro J tumbler was evaluated using lactose,
microcrystalline cellulose, and salicylic acid as chemical
indicator with the ratio 88:10:2 (w/w). The mixing time, the speed
of the tumbler (rpm), its inclination, and filling percentage were
varied in order to assess the limits of the mixer and the best
parameters to use for obtaining a mixture as uniform as possible.
The same experiments were then repeated after addition of 1% (w/w)
magnesium stearate to the mixture of powders. The efficiency in the
distribution of this lubricant was estimated by the progressive
hardness reduction of the tablets derived from the compression of
the powders, at a constant applied force. Finally, a comparison
between Canguro J and a very efficient V-shaped mixer of the same
capacity was performed. The results show that all investigated
parameters influenced the mixing capability of Canguro J. The best
effectiveness of the mixer occurred at the filling rate of 50% and
a rotation speed of 20 rpm; in this case, Canguro J is even a
little more effective than the V-shaped mixer. However, even at the
filling rate of 70%, the same distribution uniformity of the
powders can be obtained after a mixing time protraction of a few
minutes.
