Role of abrasion and corrosion in grinding media wear. Volume III

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:5959816
The relative contributions of abrasion and corrosion and the effect of scale-up on the wear rates of three different grind materials in molybdenite and taconite ore milling under three mill atmospheres was investigated. A standardized marked ball wear test was implemented to obtain reliable and reproducible results from the three mill sizes. The mechanisms responsible for wear were determined through SEM and EDX examinations.
