Zircosil - Zirconium Silicate Micro Milling Media

Posted by JyotiCeramic on March 23rd, 2021

Zircosil is the registered name of Jyoti Ceramic Industries Pvt. Ltd. for their proprietary formulated Zirconium Silicate composite, specially developed for upper medium density (4.4 g/cm3) ceramic micro milling beads used for wet milling/dispersion of formulation

Looking at the market needs for medium density, long-lasting, cost-effective ceramic milling beads, we started an extensive research to develop suitable ceramic milling beads to the specific segment of customers who have bead mills but not suitable to carry the load of Zirconox high density (6.2 g/cm3) beads. We finally developed Zircosil ceramic micro milling beads formulated from microfine fused Zirconium siicate powder sintered at high temperature.

Generally, for dispersion or particle size reduction of substances, ceramic-glass beads are used world over in bead mills, pearl mills or in agitating attritor mills

Zircosil - Zirconium silicate beads can conveniently replace glass and most of ceramic beads due to it's superior features and cost economics. Zircosil beads (Zirconium Silicate Milling beads) are most ideally suited for dispersion and micro fine milling of low and medium viscous. Agro chemicals : Fungicides, Herbicides, Pesticides. Dyestuff : Textile dyes, Textile Inks. Cosmetics. Food Stuff. Inks : Printing inks, Inkjet - Magnetic inks, Tattoo inks. Minerals : Calcium Carbonate, Talc. Oxides : Titanium Dioxide. Paints & Varnishes : Auto & allied paints, Decorative & Marine paints. Pharmaceuticals.

Zircosil beads are also used for shot peening treatment on metal surfaces, metal polishing, contact eye lenses polishing and a host of many other applications.

Benefits of Using Zircosil

Zircosil beads, are of upper medium density (4.4 g/cm3) tough and sapphire hard (9 Moh’s scale), ideally suited for speedy dispersion / milling of hard and soft substances in high-low speed, horizontal and vertical type bead mills, sand mills, attritor, turbo and pearl mills.

• Zircosil beads being of low co-efficient of friction, having glossy satin smooth surface and are most gentle to expensive mill parts.
• Zircosil beads are free from pin holes or cracks, bead fused with other bead resulting in reduced downtime, and greater process safety. During change of formulation process cleaning and washing of beads is faster & less cumbersome.
• Zircosil micro beads have dense homogeneous internal microstructure, due to this property beads maintain satin smooth surface finish and do not crack or shatter easily. As the hours of milling progress, the wear rate of Zircosil micro bead reduces further and the surface finish of beads appears glossier.

Zircosil ceramic beads are

• Non-contaminative
• Non-toxic
• Non-radioactive
• Non-magnetic
• Chemically inert
• Resistant to all acids and alkalis except hydrofluoric acid.
