Alumina ceramic grinding balls are ultra-dense, high-purity spheres engineered from ≥92% aluminum oxide (Al2O3). Designed for abrasive and corrosive environments, they deliver superior grinding efficiency, near-zero contamination, and exceptional wear resistance in size reduction, dispersion, and mechanical alloying processes. Ideal for sensitive chemical applications where metal leaching or silica contamination is unacceptable.
Key Advantages:
*Chemical Inertness: Resists acids (H2SO4, HCl), alkalis (NaOH, KOH), and solvents.
*Extreme Hardness: Mohs 9 hardness for aggressive grinding without fracturing.
*Low Contamination: ≤1 ppm metal ion leaching (critical for batteries/pharma).
*Thermal Stability: Operates from -196°C to +1,550°C (cryogenic to kiln temperatures).

| Application | Recommended Ball Size | Mill Speed (RPM) | Filling Ratio |
|---|---|---|---|
| Nano-Grinding (<1 µm) | 3-6 mm | 300-500 | 30-40% |
| Fine Grinding (1-20 µm) | 13-20 mm | 200-400 | 40-50% |
| Coarse Grinding (>20 µm) | 25-40 mm | 100-300 | 50-65% |
Critical Notes:
*Use with alumina/rubber-lined mills - avoid mixed media (e.g., steel).
*For wet grinding: Max. slurry density ≤80% solids.
*Clean with NaOH solution to remove residues.
Primary Applications in Chemical Industry:
*Catalyst Processing: Crushing & homogenizing catalyst pellets (e.g., FCC, hydroprocessing).
*Fine Chemical Synthesis: Grinding dyes, pigments, and specialty polymers.
*Battery Material Production: Nano-grinding Li-ion cathode/anode powders (LFP, NMC).
*Mineral & Fertilizer Processing: Size reduction of phosphate, potassium salts, and quartz.
*Pharmaceuticals: Contamination-free milling of APIs and excipients.
