Breakage properties of some materials in a laboratory ball mill
Crystalline quartz, silicon carbide, three coals of different rank and a cement clinker were studied in a small laboratory ball mill under standard conditions. The first-order specific rates of breakage and the cumulative primary daughter fragment distributions were determined. Two coals showed a slowing down of breakage rate at fine dry grinds.
