Selecting the Appropriate Grinding Method Based on Material Properties
The selection between Dry Grinding and Wet Grinding depends on the physical and chemical characteristics of the materials. Choosing the right method can directly affect product quality, process stability, and energy efficiency.
| Material Property | Dry Grinding | Wet Grinding |
|---|---|---|
| Thermal Sensitivity | Limited for temperature-sensitive materials (friction heat) | Liquid medium enables effective heat dissipation |
| Agglomeration Tendency | Requires shear force; airflow may worsen agglomeration | Liquid medium coats particles to suppress agglomeration |
| Flowability | Poor powder flow may clog chamber | Controllable slurry flow suits complex channels |
| Dispersion Precision Requirement | Risk of over-grinding for surface-sensitive materials | Gentle dispersion preserves particle integrity |
