Alumina ball is widely used as grinding medium for massive grinding, like coal powder and mineral powder; zirconia ball and bead has large density, they are mainly used for fine grinding, to get super fine powder, in addition, zirconia ball can also be used as bearing ball. Silicon nitride ball is used as bearing ball for high speed bearings, and silicon nitride bead is mainly used as grinding medium for ultra-fine grinding of high hardness grinding materials.
Basic performance parameters of ceramic ball/bead provided by ATCERA are as follows (the actual product may have slight differences due to factors such as the composition of the raw material, molding and sintering process, etc.).
| Q：What materials are commonly used for manufacturing ceramic balls? |
| A：Ceramic balls are typically made from materials such as Silicon Nitride (Si₃N₄), Zirconia (ZrO₂), Alumina (Al₂O₃), and Silicon Carbide (SiC). Each material offers specific benefits such as high hardness, wear resistance, and chemical stability. |
| Q：What are the typical applications of ceramic balls? |
| A：Ceramic balls are commonly used in applications such as bearings, valves, grinding media, and precision measurement tools. They are favored in industries like aerospace, automotive, chemical processing, and electronics due to their high durability and resistance to extreme conditions. |
| Q：How do ceramic balls perform in high-temperature environments? |
| A： Ceramic balls perform exceptionally well in high-temperature environments, with some materials like Silicon Nitride and Zirconia able to withstand temperatures up to 1000°C or higher. This makes them ideal for applications involving high heat, such as in turbine engines and high-temperature bearings. |
| Q：What is the wear resistance of ceramic balls compared to metal balls? |
| A：Ceramic balls generally have superior wear resistance compared to metal balls. Their high hardness and low friction coefficient reduce wear and tear, extending the lifespan of components in demanding applications like ball bearings and grinding media. |
| Q：Are ceramic balls resistant to chemical corrosion? |
| A：Yes, ceramic balls are highly resistant to chemical corrosion. Materials like Silicon Nitride and Zirconia are chemically inert and do not react with most acids, alkalis, or solvents, making them suitable for use in corrosive environments, such as chemical processing and pharmaceutical manufacturing. |
Zirconia and silicon nitride ceramic balls can be used as ball bearings for ceramic bearing, widely used in the following industries:
1. Chemical industry
Ceramic bearing has good corrosion resistance, it is widely used in liquid and gas conveying equipment in the chemical industry, especially for occasions with corrosion media, such as pickling machines, chemical pumps, etc.
2. Electronics industry
Ceramic bearing has small friction coefficient, and weight is light, it is often used in precision machining equipment and electronic components, such as chip manufacturing devices, hard disk motors, high-precision machine tools, etc.
3. Machinery industry
Ceramic bearing has high compressive strength, good toughness, good wear resistance, low friction coefficient, it is widely used in the mechanical industry, such as high-speed motors, hydraulic pumps, precision machine tools, wind turbines, high-speed trains, etc., bearing long service life, good stability, reduce equipment maintenance costs.
4. Aerospace industry
Ceramic bearing because of its non-magnetic, good electrical insulation, high temperature resistance, high rigidity, good wear resistance and other advantages, in the aerospace field it has a very important application, such as aircraft engines, gyroscopes, inertial measurement devices, etc.
Alumina ceramic ball is mainly used for powder grinding of industrial raw materials.
1. Mineral processing industry
High purity alumina grinding ball and grinding cylinder have high hardness, good wear resistance, in the mineral processing industry for the production of small and uniform particles of mineral powder, the service life is long, and can effectively reduce the overall cost of grinding.
2. Coal power industry
High purity alumina grinding ball and grinding cylinder have high hardness, good wear resistance, they can be used to grind pulverized coal for power generation, which can effectively reduce the noise and operation costs of grinding equipment;
3. Cement industry
Alumina ceramic has high hardness, good corrosion resistance, as a grinding medium in the cement industry, the extracted raw material powder particles are uniform, improve production efficiency.
4. Metallurgical industry
Alumina ceramic has high hardness, high temperature resistance, and can adapt to harsh working environment in the metallurgical industry, and are used as grinding media to grind various raw materials.
Silicon nitride and zirconia beads are mainly used for ultra-fine grinding of high hardness abrades:
1. Dyes and Coatings: ink, pigment, paint, etc.;
2. electronic materials: resistance, capacitance, liquid crystal display paste, plasma display glass glue, semiconductor polishing paste, gas sensor paste, etc.;
3. medicine, food and food additives, cosmetics, etc
