Abstract: The static mixer for two components comprises a housing with an inlet section and mixing elements that are arranged in the housing. At least one of the mixing elements is designed, in contrast to mixing helixes of the prior art, as a disk-shaped shear plate having a passage in its disk. Such shear elements allow mixing even of smallest quantities that are possibly dispensed drop by drop, as higher shearing rates are produced near the passages of the shear plates during dispensing and vortices are created on their outlet sides. This is very advantageous especially in medical applications of such mixers.
