With an increasing demand for super fine powders for industries, wet ultra fine grinding has been increasingly used in various fields, such as minerals, ceramic materials, pigments, pharmaceutics and paper-making. Most of the mills used in ultra fine grinding are stirred ball mills. Stirred ball mills are better suited than other mills for the production of ultra fine and submicron-size particles. Ultra fine and submicron grinding by means of stirred ball mill is a highly energy-intensive process, and it is necessary to optimize energy usage by determining the optimum operational parameters for the mill. On the other hand, it has been known that slurry rheology affects the wet milling of materials. Therefore, the effect of slurry rheology to the milling becomes of particular importance. The aim of this review is to present some of the previous work with respect to the process parameters and slurry rheology in ultra fine wet grinding with stirred ball milling
