SiLibeads® Ceramic Beads
Proven in a wide variety of applications, e.g. as grinding beads in agitator bead mills for the finest comminution and dispersion of pigments, paints, minerals and ceramic powders.
SiLibeads SPECIAL
SiLibeads® SPECIAL, made of silicon nitride (Si3N4), yttrium oxide (Y2O3), zirconium oxide / magnesium stabilized and strontium ferrite (SHF) are ceramic beads developed for your special requirements, new applications and products. Further innovative compositions such as tungsten carbide (WC and composites) and silicon carbide (SiC) are under development and will be introduced as products in the near future.
Fields of application
Ceramic beads made of Silicon nitride (Si3N4)
Beads for lowest possible product contamination, for so-called autogenous grinding / dispersion:
- for dispersion and preparation under oxygen-free conditions
- preparation of silicon and battery materials
- sintering bed with good thermal conductivity for special products
Ceramic beads made of yttrium oxide (Y2O3)
Beads for lowest possible product contamination, for autogenous grinding / dispersion
- beads for dispersing and processing high-purity yttrium or rare earth products
- sintering bed for special products
Ceramic beads made of zirconium oxide / magnesium stabilized
- beads for lowest possible product contamination, for autogenous grinding / dispersion
Ceramic beads made of hard magnetic strontium ferrite (SHF)
- application as grinding beads in dry grinding process using an applied external magnetic field
