how to determine material suitability for jet milling
Jet milling relies heavily on the physical properties of the material you process. Characteristics like brittleness and hardness directly influence the ability to achieve fine particle sizes. Moisture content also plays a critical role, as excessive moisture can hinder performance and lead to clumping. Selecting the right material ensures efficient milling and consistent product quality. […]
What else can the air jet mill do for users by constantly exploring its upward space?
The working principle of the air jet grinder is like an “air storm” in the microscopic world. Air jet mill cleverly uses high-pressure air as a power source. It drives tiny, hard abrasive particles at high speed, like bullets, at the material to be processed. A huge impact force hits the surface when these abrasive […]
A brief discussion on the application and development trend of powder coatings
With the push for environmental protection, firms must develop eco-friendly coatings. But, eco-friendly coatings aren’t limited to water-based ones. If enterprises rush to develop water-based coatings, product homogeneity will inevitably occur. Besides water-based coatings, high-solid, solvent-free, and powder coatings are also eco-friendly. They should be the key development focus of the coatings industry. A report […]
How does limestone achieve multiple transformations?
Limestone is a sedimentary rock composed mainly of calcite (calcium carbonate CaCO3). It usually forms in marine or lake environments. Biological and chemical processes cause it to precipitate. The characteristics and types of limestone are as follows: Color: generally gray, white, yellow, brown, etc., depending on the impurities contained. Texture: The texture is uniform and […]
What are the main advantages of using jet milling over other particle size reduction methods

Jet Mill or Air Classifier Mill: Making the Best Choice
Choosing between a jet mill and an air classifier mill depends on your needs. Jet mills excel at making ultra-fine powders with precise particle size control. They are ideal for low-contamination industries. They use high-speed gas jets to grind particles. They are suitable for dry, hard materials. In contrast, air classifier mills are versatile. They […]
What impact do different classification technologies have on powder purity?
Many technologies classify powders. The most common are screening, airflow, and centrifugal classification. Their effects on powder purity vary. Sieving method The sieving method is to use a sieve to grade the powder, which is suitable for coarse powder grading. If the sieve is intact, it can remove large impurities. It will improve purity. However, […]
What effect does the particle size of barium sulfate have on coatings?
Barium sulfate, as an inorganic pigment, is widely used in the coating industry. It reflects well at 300-400 microns. It prevents light aging from damaging the paint film. It is an efficient white matte stabilizer. Its unique needle-like crystal structure gives it excellent matte properties. It can also enhance the coating’s leveling. Also, barium sulfate’s […]
