Environmentally friendly products with superior grinding efficiency

The pioneering development of high wear resistant YTZ^® Grinding Media was a result of combining the excellent technologies of the Nikkato Corporation in media manufacture and Tosoh’s zirconia powder production technologies.

YTZ^® is a trademark of Nikkato Corporation.

YTZ^® Grinding Media, produced from yttria-stabilized zirconia powder, exhibits high crushing strength and wear resistance. YTZ^® is produced by the Nikkato Corporation, one of Japanfs leading ceramic manufacturers and a pioneer in the development of strength-enhanced Zirconia ceramics. YTZ^®, due to its high density/crushing strength and relative inertness to most non acidic fluids, can be more effectively used in most, if not all, water based processes, especially in high speed agitation mills. YTZ^® Grinding Media survives the harsh conditions inherent in this type of processing. Compatibility with water based processing, as well as lower media disposal costs due to the YTZ^®'s high wear resistance and thus less frequent need for disposal, make YTZ^® a friend to the environment. When environmental COSTS are considered, YTZ^® is the most COST effective media available. In addition to a range of standard sizes (mm) 0.3-25, smaller sizes (mm) 0.2, 0.1, and 0.05, are available for finer and nano-particle size reduction requirements.
