Difference between blending and mixing

difference between blending and mixing

The terms “mixing” and “blending” are often used interchangeably, but technically they are slightly different.
Blending is a process of combining materials, but blending is a relatively gentle process compared to mixing. In terms of the phase of material, blending is the process of solid-solid mixing or mixing of bulk solids with small quantity of liquid.
Whereas,the terminology mixing is more closely associated with liquid-liquid, gas-liquid, and viscous materials.
