Air Jet Mill

Jet milling is a process of using highly compressed air or other gasses, usually in a vortex motion, to impact fine particles against each other in a chamber. This gradually reduces them in size, resulting in powders that have particle size dimensions as small as one micron across, or 50-100 times smaller than the width of a human hair.

Jet Milling has wider application in pharmaceutical industry for size reduction and to achieve required dissolution properties in the final product used during drug formulation.
