What is Steatite ?

Jyoti Steatite grade HF-82 ceramic composite corresponds to German steatite ceramic grade KER 221. It is a low loss alkali free fused magnesium silicate material, tough, hard and dense ceramic.

Jyoti's Steatite ceramic mill lining blocks and grinding media are ideal performance partners.

Steatite is a magnesium meta silicate composite formulated from selected quality of soapstone, china clay, barium carbonate and other chemicals in its residual. The raw mix composite is wet milled to micro fine particle size. The composite slurry is spray dried in micro processor controlled spray dryer to form homogeneous free flowing spherical granules. Such granules are pressed in T.C. moulding tools in automatic uniaxial dry powder compacting presses, under high compaction pressure.

The pressed mill lining bricks and grinding media are sintered at around 1350°C in gas fired high temperature shuttle - tunnel kilns in natural oxidising atmosphere to form an impervious, vitrified, tough, non porous, dense hard material. Due to its mechanical strength and other relative features steatite ceramic is found most suitable ceramic composite for production of ball mill linings and grinding media.

The true value of mill lining and grinding media is measured by length of trouble free service in relation to mill production output.
