A method for validating a homogenizing valve (), comprising the steps of:—preparing an emulsion having a hydrophilic phase comprising, in weight percentage on the total weight: from 55% to 74% demineralized water, from 10% to 20% glycerin and from 3% to 4,2% butylene glycol, and a lipophilic phase comprising, in weight percentage on the total weight: from 5.1% to 5.9% squalane, from 7.2% to 8.8% caprylic acid alkyl ester and from 0.665% to 0.735% cetyl alcohol;—subjecting the emulsion to forced passage within the homogenizing valve () from a high pressure zone (HP) to a low pressure zone (LP) a plurality of times.

Method for validating a homogenizing valve

A homogenizing apparatus () comprising: &#x2014;an inlet () for receiving a pressurized fluid, possibly also containing solid particles; &#x2014;a zone wherein homogenization of the fluid takes place; &#x2014;an outlet () for the fluid at a lower pressure with respect to the inlet pressure, wherein, in the homogenization zone, the fluid passes from a zone having a larger diameter (or volume) to a zone having a smaller diameter (or volume), the homogenization zone comprising an interacting element () shared by a first stage (equipped with a first deflector plug ()) and a second stage suitable for creating back pressure (equipped with a second deflector plug ()), where the deflector plugs (and) operate with the interacting element () they share, generating an increase in the shear rate within the first stage. The invention also concerns a homogenization process.

Homogenising process and apparatus with flow reversal

Stable complexes are described, formed by mono- and di-functional compounds bound to nanoparticles composed of various types of transition metal oxides and of metals useful in the production processes of different types of new materials (such as for example some types of hydrophile plastics, fibers); processes for the production of the complexes are also described.

Functionalised nanoparticles, their production and use

There are described nanoparticles of magnetic metal oxides employable in constructs consisting in polymer particles possibly also incorporating pharmacologically active substances.
