Fig. 6 (b) shows the variations of the grinding rates with medium size at different rotation speeds. It indicates that grinding using 4 mm glass beads is slightly faster at 800 rpm and 1600 rpm than using 2 mm or 6 mm glass beads. However, the grinding rate slightly decreases with increasing medium size at 1200 rpm.

The impact of the process parameters in dry stirred media mills may vary with the choice of grinding aid. •. The grinding result of dry stirred media mills strongly depends on the powder flow behavior. •. It is crucial to adjust the process parameters of the mill as a function of the type of grinding aid.

Media milling is a process wherein a charge of grinding media (steel or ceramic balls, cylinders, or fine media) is accelerated in either a rotating cylinder or drum (traditional tumbling ball mill) or a stationary vertical or horizontal vessel with a rotating shaft. Media mills can be either a wet or dry process.

This paper presents the experimental results of the mechanical production of silica and carbonate colloidal particles below 100 nm using two types of stirred bead mills (i.e., DCP Superflow 12 and PML H/V).
