How to achieve uniform mixtures with master batching

Despite their small proportions, however, minor and micro ingredients are critical to the process or the final product or both. In a dry soup mix, for instance, flavorings are minor ingredients. In an aspirin batch, the active ingredient acetylsalicylic acid is a micro ingredient. In a rubber batch, a colorant is the minor ingredient and
