Particulates are particles of liquid or solid matter. Dusts are solid organic or inorganic particulates which are formed by crushing, grinding, impaction or other physical activities. Aerosols are liquid or solid particles with diameters of less than 0.1 /im which will remain suspended in air. Fumes, which are often conftised with vapors, are airborne particulates formed by the evaporation and. subsequent condensation of solid materials such as metals during welding ( rations. Fumes typically have diameters of less than one micron. 

In the long term, the bonded abrasive industry for precision grinding will be impacted by the superior performance of CBN and sol—gel abrasives. 

The second process to finish phthalocyanine, which is more important for P-copper phthalocyanine, involves grinding the dry or aqueous form in a ball mill or a kneader (64). Agents such as sodium chloride, which have to be removed by boiling with water after the grinding, are used. Solvents like aromatic hydrocarbons, xylene, nitrobenzene or chlorobenzene, alcohols, ketones, or esters can be used (1). In the absence of a solvent, the cmde P-phthalocyanine is converted to the a-form (57,65) and has to be treated with a solvent to regain the P-modification. The aggregate stmcture also has an impact on the dispersion behavior of a- and P-copper phthalocyanine pigments (66). 

Almost all raw materials requite grinding after primary cmshing. For coarse grinding, a dry pan or occasionally a wet pan is used. The dry pan is similar to a grist mill but has a perforated bottom through which the cmshed material is continuously removed. The wet pan is similar, but has a soUd bottom. For very fine grinding, a ring-roll, ball, or impact mill is employed. 

As only a small proportion of the material is in contact with the roUs and friction on the rollers is low, hard materials can be processed with tittle wear. The high pressure action creates a slab of ultrafine particles which usually requires a low speed impact milting system to disagglomerate. Used in closed circuit with such a disagglomerator and an air classifier, such machines can reduce the energy requirement for fine grinding many minerals. 

HammerMills. One of the most versatile, economical, and widely used impact mills is the hammer mill (Fig. 12). Many variations are produced, with special types available for specialized appHcations, eg, quick screen change for animal feed, heavy duty for minerals, and light constmctions for woodchip. The principle employed is similar to that of the impact cmsher however, the rotation speed can vary from 20 up to 100 m/s with high speed fine-grinding versions. The oudet screen is used to vary the residence time, which in turn affects final particle size. The size of the end product is an order of magnitude finer than the size of the perforations in the outlet screen. 

Mechanical Mills with Mir Classifiers. To improve the end fineness and achieve a sharper topsize cutoff point, many mechanical impact mills are fitted with integral air classifiers (Fig. 13). These can be driven separately from the mill rotor or share a common drive. The material to be ground is introduced into the mill section of the machine, where impact size reduction takes place. The airflow through the machine carries the partially ground product to the air classifier, which is usually some form of rotating turbine. The speed of rotation determines which particle size is internally recycled for further grinding and which is allowed to exit the machine with the airflow. Machines are available up to 375 kW and can achieve products with essentially all material <20 fim.
