Cosmetic powders
enhance the appearance of the skin and make it smooth
and soft. Talcum powder absorbs surface moisture and protects
the skin against soreness - and especially the delicate
skin of babies against nappy rash. Alpine delivers
complete systems for the comminution, homogenisation and
formulation.
The system schematic below shows a grinding-mixing system
for talcum powder laid out for an end-product fineness
of 97% < 45 µm and finer. A mere 0.1%
perfume (in liquid form) is added to the feed product,
in this case chalk or talc, in a special mixer. The downstream
comminution and homogenisation is carried out by two UPZ
fine impact mills with pin disc equipment connected in
series. This particular system is not in pressure-shock-proof
design. If, however, an organic product such as cereal
starch is used as the powder basis instead of a mineral
product, the system should be in pressure-shock-proof
design to 10 bar overpressure.
