ALOBALL10 High-Purity 92% Alumina Milling Balls, 10 mm Diameter, 1 kg Pack for Laboratory Ball Mills
ALOBALL10 milling balls are designed to meet the demanding needs of laboratory-scale ball milling processes where material purity and mechanical durability are critical. These ceramic balls, composed primarily of alumina (Al2O3) with a purity exceeding 92%, provide an effective grinding medium for fine and uniform particle size reduction in various materials.
The 10 mm diameter balls offer an optimal balance between surface area and impact energy, suitable for milling applications requiring moderate to high energy input. Their high hardness, measured between 15 and 15.6 on the Vickers scale, ensures resistance to wear and deformation, extending their service life during repetitive milling cycles.
