High mechanical strength values for technical ceramics can only be achieved with the finest microstructures with no impurities or defects. For processing the finest particles in the micron and even the nanometer range with minimal contamination, machines are available for both wet processing and dry grinding.

Technical Ceramics

With high fineness requirements (< 50 µm) or specific quality criteria, e.g. narrow grain size spectrum, the traditional drum mill is often at its limit, both economically and technically. NETZSCH-Feinmahltechnik offers systems and agitator bead mills that can complement or replace the drum mills.

Household Ceramics

Many decorative paints and glazes are used to refine the surface of ceramic products such as earthenware, stoneware and porcelain. In addition to frits, the basic components of the paints and glazes are primarily special pigments.

Ceramic Pigments

When considered a raw material, glass (glasses) is a collective term for an almost incomprehensible number of materials with a wide variety of compositions as an amorphous, non-crystalline solid. However, far greater than the variety of different types is the number of uses.

Glass

Ferrites, which can be classified as soft and hard ferrites, are oxide ceramic materials with the general composition M^IIO•Fe₂O₃, which contain permanent magnetic dipoles. The special magnetic properties are due to the spontaneous parallel or inverse parallel position of the magnetic moments of the atoms in larger areas.
