Ultrasonic Extraction Principle Ultrasonic Extractor
The superiority of ultrasonic extraction of traditional Chinese medicine is based on the special physical properties of ultrasound.
(1) Ultrasonic extractor accelerates the motion of medium particles. When ultrasonic waves with a frequency higher than 20 KHz propagate in a continuous medium (such as water), according to the Huygens wave principle, the motion of the medium particles (including those of important active ingredients in medicinal herbs) will be caused on the wave front, resulting in significant acceleration and kinetic energy of the medium particle motion. The acceleration of a particle can generally reach over 2000 times the acceleration of gravity through calculation. Due to the action of ultrasonic energy on the active ingredients of medicinal herbs by the medium particles, tremendous acceleration and kinetic energy are obtained, which quickly escape from the medicinal substrate and become free in water.
(2) Cavitation effect of ultrasonic extractor. Ultrasonic waves propagate in liquid media and generate a special "cavitation effect". The "cavitation effect" continuously generates countless micro air pockets with internal pressure reaching thousands of atmospheres and continuously "explodes" to generate powerful shock waves at the micro level on traditional Chinese medicine, causing the components and substances of the medicine to be "bombarded" and escape, and causing the medicine matrix to be continuously eroded. The medicinal components that do not belong to the plant structure are constantly separated. Accelerate the extraction of effective ingredients from plants.
(3) The ultrasonic vibration homogenization of the ultrasonic extractor ensures that all points in the sample medium are subjected to the same action, resulting in a more uniform extraction of the entire sample. In summary, the medicinal substances in traditional Chinese medicine not only obtain enormous acceleration and kinetic energy as medium particles under the action of ultrasonic field, but also obtain strong external force impact through "cavitation effect", so the energy rate is fully separated.
