Frequently Asked Questions
Q
What are Zirconia Ceramic Beads made of?
Zirconia Ceramic Beads are primarily composed of 94.5% ZrO₂ (zirconium dioxide) stabilized with 5.25% Y₂O₃ (yttrium oxide). This yttria-stabilized composition provides exceptional hardness, high density, and outstanding wear resistance.
Q
What industries are Zirconia Ceramic Beads suitable for?
Zirconia Ceramic Beads are widely used across numerous industries including paints & coatings, inks, battery materials, minerals & mining, agrochemicals, pharmaceuticals & food, electronic materials, structural ceramics, cosmetics, textiles, and printing & dyeing industries.
Q
What sizes are available for Zirconia Ceramic Beads?
Zirconia Ceramic Beads are available in a wide range of sizes from Φ0.1mm up to Φ55mm, covering micro-grinding to large-scale milling applications. Common sizes include Φ0.1, Φ0.2, Φ0.3–0.4, up through Φ55mm to meet diverse processing requirements.
Q
How do Zirconia Beads compare to other grinding media in wear resistance?
Zirconia Ceramic Beads significantly outperform conventional grinding media such as glass beads, alumina beads, and steel balls in wear resistance. Their extremely low wear rate minimizes material contamination and extends the service life of the beads, resulting in lower overall production costs.
Q
Are Zirconia Ceramic Beads safe for use in food and pharmaceutical applications?
Yes. Due to their extremely low wear rate and high chemical inertness, Zirconia Ceramic Beads are suitable for use in food processing and pharmaceutical grinding applications where high purity and zero contamination are critical requirements.
Q
What are the key physical properties of Yttria Stabilized Zirconia Beads?
The key physical properties include: Specific Density ≥6.02 g/cm³, Hardness (HV) >8.5 GPa, Elastic Modulus of 200 GPa, Fracture Toughness of 9 MPam¹/², Grain Size ≤0.5 µm, and a Crushing Load of ≥20 KN (Φ2mm). These properties ensure superior grinding efficiency and long-term durability.
