Selenium – listed in the periodic system of the elements in the 6^th main group, below sulphur, is unknown to many. Although it belongs to the essential trace elements and is integrated by the body in the so called 21^st amino acid. But still, it’s a toxin and the comminution of it requires a certain caution.

Mixed were solid with solid substances, solid with liquid substances and liquids with solids. As solid phases mostly fine powders are used, which during the mixing process should not be further reduced in size. The liquid phases include mercury to saline solutions up to resins.

The production of homogenous composite samples is a prerequisite. Latex the white milky juice of the rubber tree, is sold in liquid or solid form as natural rubber. For the production of the liquid state, the tree juice is thickened and stabilized with ammonia. For the production of the solid state, the suitable chemicals are added to the juice of the plant and will coagulate. This solid is washed in various ways, dried and shaped mostly into thin slabs.
