Description
Summary:This report presents the experimental procedures and data of developing the Tronoh silica sand fine particles by two different approaches which are dry and wet milling process. Tronoh areas are widely covered by silica sand that has potential to be commercialized. The objective of this research is to produce and characterize the fine particles of Tronoh silica sand using milling approaches, which are dry and wet milling. By using the US STONEWARE 764AVM ball mill and the zirconium beads as the grinding media, silica sand was grounded to produce the fine particles.
