Experimental investigation on fluidized bed jet grinding

Fluidized bed jet grinding is a well accepted method for producing powders with an average particle size of less than 10 μm quickly and effectively. Its use has increased steadily for grinding chemicals, minerals, pigments, pharmaceuticals, abrasives, plastics and food. Nevertheless, even though...
