SiLibeads® Ceramic Beads
SiLibeads® Type TC 9.5
SiLibeads® TC 9.5 offer high density and hardness, are environmentally friendly and ideal for demanding grinding processes in paints, inks and coatings.
Zirconium oxide-tungsten carbide ceramic balls
SiLibeads® Type TC 9.5 represent a new product on the grinding ball market, combining the outstanding properties of tungsten carbide with the advantages of zirconium oxide. These grinding balls are manufactured from pure raw materials and are free of cobalt, nickel and chromium. This makes them particularly environmentally friendly and less harmful than conventional tungsten carbide balls. Our zirconium oxide tungsten carbide ceramic balls are ideal for high-quality grinding of inks, pigments and coatings. They are also ideal for wet grinding processes of highly viscous suspensions and for use in high-energy mills.

SiLibeads® Performance wet milling Process
SiLibeads® Type TC 9.5 are characterised by their high density and bulk density, which leads to improved energy transfer and thus more efficient grinding. The high hardness of the balls ensures a long service life and minimal contamination of the ground material. Thanks to their special material composition, these ceramic balls made of zirconium oxide tungsten carbide offer outstanding performance in high-energy mills and in the wet grinding of highly viscous suspensions.
