Horizontal Rod-pin Nanoparticle Mill Ultrafine Particle Disperser Grinding Machine Laboratory Nanoparticle Synthesizer

Working Principle

The experimental horizontal rod-pin nanoparticle mill is a horizontal, continuous production ultrafine particle disperser. Its working process involves using a pump (pneumatic diaphragm pump, screw pump, gear pump, rotor pump, etc.) to input the pre-dispersed and wetted solid-liquid mixture into the grinding chamber. The grinding chamber is filled with an appropriate amount of grinding media. The high-speed rotation of the dispersing blades imparts sufficient kinetic energy to the grinding media, causing irregular relative motion between the material and the grinding media within the grinding chamber. The material is primarily subjected to centrifugal force and pressure between the media, resulting in stress field generation through impact, friction, and shearing. When the stress exceeds the material's yield stress or fracture limit, the particles undergo plastic deformation or fracture, achieving the purpose of grinding the material and dispersing aggregates. A special separation device then separates the ground and dispersed material from the media and discharges it from the outlet.

Grinding Mechanism

1. The grinding media, accelerated by the rotor's rotation, moves towards the inner wall of the grinding drum. The grinding media moving towards the drum wall collides with the grinding media or materials adhering to the inner wall, resulting in dispersion and breakage of the materials.

2. Under centrifugal force, the materials adhering to the inner wall of the grinding drum are dispersed and broken by the pressure and shear force of the adjacent media.

3. Due to the varying distances of the grinding media from the shaft center, different velocities are obtained, creating velocity differences. Collisions occur during this process, causing material breakage.

4. In the initial stage of grinding, the particle size is relatively large, and impact crushing plays a major role. As the grinding time increases, the materials gradually become finer, and frictional shear crushing primarily occurs within the grinding drum.
