One of the important functions of a mixer is to uniformly mix powders and liquids. In this study, a 3D motion mixer with a sealed vessel without stirring blades was used. However, the flow state of powders and liquids in a sealed vessel is unknown, and it is generally necessary to open the vessel to examine the mixing state to evaluate it. Therefore, a transparent container containing silica sand and fluorescent particles was placed in the mixer and an experiment was conducted. In previous studies, the results of the remaining conditions were predicted by producing some conditions for the powder filling rate and container rotation speed. Therefore, we demand to more clearly determine the time required to reach dispersion for each condition. As a result, the time required for dispersion under different conditions was more clearly defined for the powder filling rate and container rotation speed than the previous results.
