Mills

In most industries size reduction falls in two general categories: crushing and milling. Crushing typically means reducing large chanks to sizes about 0,5 to 0,75 or smaller. Milling usually means reducing mmaterial to sizes in the low-micron or even nano-size range. Milling may be done wet or dry. Attrition milling technologies relate to chemical processing applications. Media milling is one common way to achive desired results.

Different types of grinding mills.The size of media affects, end result of the miling operation

Type of Mill	Media Size,in.	Tip Speed, ft./sec
Ball mill	1/2 and larger	-
Attrition mill	1/8 - 3/8	600 - 1,000
Sand mill	1/64 - 1/8	2,00 - 3,000
Small media mill	0,1mm - 3mm	1,000 - 3,000

Ball mills are more suitable for coarse materials (are used large media, ranging in size 20mm diameter and more, to produce material from about 10microns to mesh sizes.
Attrition mills are more appropriate for mid-range size particles. Such millsutilize 3-10mm media to produce material ranging in size from approximately 1 to 10 microns.
The first small media mill was named "sand mill" because it used 1/64-1/8 in Ottawa silica,Canada. Ultrafine grinding - high-perfomance small media mills - produce sub-micron particle sizes by employing beads ranging in size 0,1-1mm.
Attrition milling is simple and effective. Feed material is placed in a stationary tank with the grinding media. A rotating shaft with arms or discs then agitates the material and media. Both impact and shearing action result in size reduction as well as homogenous particle dispersion with very little wear on the tank walls. These efficient forces must be present for the most effective grinding action.

Gas Analyzer System of Measuring Emissions of Particulate Matter in Exhaust

At the end of 2009 between Materials Research Centre and State Motor Company SRI Project was signed an agreement on еngineering and technology revision of design documentation and producing of the first domestic gas analyzer system of measuring emissions of particulate matter in exhaust developed by State Motor Company SRI Project in according with international standards Euro2, Euro 3, Euro 4, Euro 5. At this stage the similar systems are produced only in the U.S. and Japan.

International R&D Project New Materials for Electric Drive Vehicles

This research project was organized by the U.S. Department of Energy (United States Department of Energy (DoE), Argonne National Laboratory, USA (Argonne National Laboratory, USA) unites a number of U.S. partner companies with several research organizations in Ukraine for the development of new batteries for electric drive vehicles.

Main objective of that project is to develop a number of experimental and new lines of experimental equipment for the development of technologies and materials for the manufacturing of batteries for electric drive vehicles.

Materials research Centre,Ltd will develop, design and produce some pilot auxiliary equipment for the further assembling of the technological parts of equipment developed by other project participants, in the full production line.

Following equipment is manufactured within the project:

Calcination furnace, Screw feeders, Scrubber, Filter system, Cooling system, Milling Machine, Composite Battery Boxes, Receiving Bin
