Advantages of Zirconia Grinding Media
Ø Ultra low wear loss as a result of the transformation-toughening mechanism unique to the yttria stabilized zirconia (YSZ) material system.
Ø Higher grinding efficiency and reduced grinding time due to zirconia’s higher density (compared with alumina and glass).
Ø Most durable grinding material, reducing operational cost in the long run. Wear rate substantially lower than Al2O3, CeO2-ZrO2, and MgO-ZrO2 grinding media.
Ø Suitable for high velocity operations and wet grinding operations.
Applications of Zirconia Grinding Media
Ø Iron- and chrome-based magnetic materials (for audio/video recording tapes) and other magnetic materials.
Ø Electronic-grade ceramics (ferroelectric, piezoelectric, dielectric, capacitors, sensors, etc.), advanced structural ceramics, and other ceramic ingredients.
Ø Nanostructured and superfine powders.
Ø Toner materials for photocopiers and laser printers.
Ø Inks, dyes, paint, and other pigments.
Ø Pharmaceutical, food, chemical, and textile applications.
Ø Lab milling operations demanding minimized contamination from milling media.
Applicable Equipment:
Ø Horizontal sand mill
Ø vertical sand mill
Ø basket mill
Ø ball mill
Ø vibration mill
