Keramax® MTX®
Name: Keramax®MTX®.
Industry:
- Mining.
- Others: Ground Calcium Carbonate (GCC), Minerals, Pigments, Paints, Ceramics, Agro-chemicals, Pharmaceuticals, Abrasives,….
Equipment: Stirred mills.
Tech Specs:
- Sizes: 3.5 -> 1.5mm.
- Physical characteristics: Density > 3.5g/cm³ – Hvl: hardness has no influence on wear resistance – KlC > 4.0 – Open porosity = 0.
Key Benefits:
- Outstanding resistance against wear and breakage.
- Ideal for non-contaminating applications.
Keramax®MTX® was launched in 2009. It has the same chemical composition as Keramax®MT1® but has a finer microstructure providing a better resistance to wear and breakage.
Keramax®MTX® has proven to be from 2.0 to 2.5 times better than Keramax®MT1® (i.e. the consumption of Keramax®MTX® is less than half the consumption of Keramax®MT1®). Keramax®MT1® is hence no longer available.
This reduction in media consumption has been possible while maintaining the same excellent energy efficiency MT1® was renowned for.
Xstrata is now using Keramax®MTX® as a benchmark for their testwork and recommend it to IsaMill users.
Magotteaux International S.A.- Belgium have been assessed and found to conform to XT standards as a designated commercial testing laboratory for the determination of the IsaMill™ Signature Plot . (see certificate in attached documents).
