Abstract
A device for mixing or otherwise processing compositions at preselected temperatures, comprising a container for receiving the composition ingredients; a jacket member disposed about the container at a spaced distance therefrom so as to form a substantially sealed area therebetween; a unit for introducing fluid flow through the area defined by the relationship between the jacket member and the container; a unit for selecting the temperature of the fluid introduced into the area; and wherein the jacket member includes a plurality of inlet ports disposed substantially evenly about an end portion of the jacket member for receiving the fluid which is introduced into the defined area, so as to maintain the container at a substantially uniform temperature.
