Nanoparticle Production with Stirred‐Media Mills ...

Nanoparticles can be produced by wet grinding in stirred‐media mills. In the lower nanometer range a true grinding limit exists, where the transferred energy from the grinding media is no longer sufficient to induce further breakage of the particles even after stressing events with high stress energies.


Agitated media mills – Making

Agitated media mills stir the grinding media to break down the target material into ultra-fine particles. The grinding media generally consists of spherical metallic or ceramic beads that are stirred into action by the agitator. Agitated media mills are designed in both vertical and horizontal configurations.
