Material Overview: Zirconium silicate beads (65 Zirconia Beads) are engineered from zirconium silicate (ZrSiO4), alumina, and silicon dioxide. Containing approximately 65% zirconia content, they feature a specific gravity of around 4.0, a bulk density of 2.4-2.5 g/cm³, and Vickers hardness up to 900 HV.
Primary Application: Ideally suited for grinding medium to low viscosity slurries. They perform exceptionally well during the basic grinding phase of coatings, paints, pigments, calcium carbonate, kaolin, ink, and pesticide suspensions.
Usage Guidelines: Thanks to moderate hardness and density, operational grinding processes can be adjusted according to slurry viscosity to achieve uniform particle dispersion while reducing equipment wear.
