Grinding Media
SUPERIOR STRENGTH and DURABILITY,
Tosohs zirconia grinding media is primarily
spherical and comes in a variety of sizes from 0.03
mm to 25 mm. It is used to process materials for
not only machines and industrial parts, but also
plays a vital role in the production of materials that
comprise the micron-thin layers of electronics for
mobile phones, as well as the processing
of pigments in printing inks.
Dental Materials
Combining STRENGTH and NATURAL BEAUTY
Replicating the natural look and feel of real teeth
without compromising strength, Zirconia is now
gaining attention as a new dental material.
Mechanical Parts
Zirconia first appeared under the name Ceramic Steel.
In addition to strength, zirconia is RESISTANT
to RUST,
CORROSION, and CHEMICAL REACTIONS, and
therefore is used in a variety of machines and other
industrial equipment. 10X standard ceramics,
and 100X MORE HEAT INSULATION THAN
zirconia excels in heat shielding applications.

The test data above is a result of wet milling BaTiO3 powder with a starting surface area of 1.8m2/g. Grinding was
conducted with several types of media in a vertical sand mill over a set period of time. As can be seen, YTZ has
superior grinding efficiency with the highest wear resistance. The highest surface area of the ground material was
achieved with YTZ over the same period of time under identical conditions. This is a clear indication of the high
milling efficiency that YTZ provides.
