CONTINUOUS CHEWING GUM BASE MANUFACTURING PROCESS USING HIGHLY DISTRIBUTE MIXING

摘要

A process for continuously producing a chewing gum base comprises the steps of continuously adding an elastomer, a filler and a plasticizer into a continuous mixer, subjecting the elastomer, filler and plasticizer to a highly distributive mixing operation and continuously discharging the resulting chewing gum base from the mixer while the adding and mixing steps are in progress.
