What can zirconia beads be used for?

Zirconia grinding beads can be used for primary crushing (0.5–3 mm), fine grinding (5–75 μm), precision grinding (0.1 μm), mixing, smallsample preparation, nanomaterial grinding and dispersion, alloying, synthesis, new product development, and smallbatch production of hightech materials.

Zirconia beads are available in a full range of sizes, with high specific gravity and excellent strength. They are ideal for research institutes, universities, and enterprise laboratories to obtain microparticle research samples (up to four samples can be obtained simultaneously in each test).They can be used with sand mills, star ball mills, grinding jars, grinding machines, and centrifuge tubes, and can grind samples under vacuum or protective atmosphere.

Planetary ball mills are suitable for wet and dry grinding and refinement of hard, mediumhard, brittle and fibrous materials. The final fineness can be less than 0.1 μm.They can also be used for grinding solids in suspensions, sample mixing and homogenization, metal alloying, etc., all with ideal results.

With special forming technology and surface treatment, the zirconia microbeads have a uniform and dense zirconia microcrystalline structure, providing extremely high wear resistance.They do not break even under highspeed operation, making them suitable grinding media for powder research in various ball mills.They are especially recommended for applications requiring low sample contamination, low wear loss, and high viscosity.

Zirconia grinding beads are widely used for grinding and dispersion in industries including paints, inks, coatings, paper, electronic materials, solar cells, pharmaceuticals, nonmetallic minerals, pigments, and more.
