Apparatus and method for forming microbubbles in a mixed multi-component reactive material

Abstract

An apparatus for preparing a liquid material containing microbubbles includes a dispensing nozzle and a first positive displacement gas pump. The dispensing nozzles includes a material mixing channel, a rotary gas diffuser positioned in the material mixing channel, and a rotary mixer positioned in the material mixing channel downstream of the rotary gas diffuser. The rotary gas diffuser and the rotary mixer rotate about a common axis of rotation. The first positive displacement pump has a first gas outlet opening to the material mixing channel, which is directed at an outer circumference of the rotary gas diffuser.
