Abstract
Ultrasonic homogenizers are powerful tools to mix and homogenize solid - liquid and liquid -liquid suspensions. Ultrasonic homogenization is a mechanical process to reduce particles in a liquid so that they become uniformly small and evenly distributed. In The ultrasonic homogenizers, homogenizing tool called a sonotrode/horn, is very important part which directly affect to mixing or homogenization quality. The horn is designed depending on certain application. A homogenize can be equipped with a several horns for many cases of working. The ideal material for manufacturing horn is titanium alloy. However, Titanium alloy is more expensive than iron or aluminum alloy. This paper will present a study on developing the aluminum alloy horn for ultrasonic homogenizers which can be an option for replacing the titanium alloy horn.
