Claim Text:
1. An electromagnetic acoustic transduction (EMAT) system for dispersing particles in a fluid material, the system comprising: an electrically conductive chamber that is configured to hold a sample as it is mixed by EMAT force, the sample including a first material in a fluid state and a second material that includes particulate matter; a primary coil wrapped around the chamber, wherein the chamber and the primary coil are coaxial; a secondary coil comprising a bore of a magnet, wherein the chamber and the primary coil are situated within the secondary coil in the bore of the magnet and the secondary coil is coaxial with at least a portion of the chamber and a corresponding portion of the primary coil; wherein the primary coil, the secondary coil and the electrically conductive chamber generate the EMAT force that spatially disperses the second material in at least a portion of the first material until a spatial distribution of the second material in the at least a portion of the first material enables a quality of the sample to meet specified criteria.
