Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
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), which provides exceptional hardness, toughness, and wear resistance.
What industries can use Zirconia Ceramic Beads?
They are widely used across paints & coatings, inks, battery materials, minerals & mining, agrochemicals, pharmaceuticals & food, electronic materials, cosmetics, textiles, and pigment industries.
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, making them suitable for both ultra-fine grinding and larger-scale milling applications.
Why choose Yttria Stabilized Zirconia Beads over other grinding media?
Yttria Stabilized Zirconia Beads offer an extremely low wear rate that prevents contamination of the processed material, deliver high grinding efficiency, and provide a longer service life — resulting in lower overall operating costs.
What is the hardness and density of these Zirconia Beads?
The beads have a Vickers hardness greater than 8.5 GPa and a specific density of ≥6.02 g/cm³, ensuring superior grinding performance and durability under high-stress conditions.
Are Zirconia Ceramic Beads suitable for pharmaceutical and food processing?
Yes. Due to their extremely low wear rate and high chemical inertness, Zirconia Ceramic Beads are suitable for fine grinding and homogenization in pharmaceutical and food applications where high purity and zero contamination are critical requirements.
