I bet the nano material thread will prove useful. ■

Use of a planetary mill from the company Retsch www.retsch.com and alternativly from Fritsch www.fritsch.de will be an appropriate solution.

Milling ZrO2: Micron Level
I am a student and for my thesis I will be working with a ceramic that is mostly ZrO2. As I have recently learned, this material is rather hard to mill down to the micron level (needed for X-Ray Diffraction).
I was wondering if anyone has experience trying to mill this material and what laboratory level solutions are available. I would be working with pellet sized samples (about 5g).
I realize this may be naive but I was hoping to find a solution (ie. equipment) for about a thousand dollars since that could be more easily be worked into the budget - although I realize this is probably hopelessly naive.
Just wondering if there are suggestions. I was looking at jet micronizers since it would allow the material to grind itself. Anyone think pounding it with a hammer can get it down to a micron powder in a reasonable period of time!!??
Cheers,
Justin ■
