A jet mill consists of a short cylinder, meaning the cylinder's height is less than its diameter. Compressed gas is forced into the mill through nozzles tangent to the cylinder wall, creating a vortex. The gas leaves the mill through a tube along the axis of the cylinder. Solid particles in the mill are subject to two competing forces:
Toner is a powder mixture used in laser printers and photocopiers to form the text and images on paper, in general through a toner cartridge. Mostly granulated plastic, early mixtures added only carbon powder and iron oxide; now there are mixtures that contain polypropylene, fumed silica, and various minerals for triboelectrification. [1]
Stamp mill, a specialized machine for reducing ore to powder for further processing or for fracturing other materials A place of business for making articles of manufacture. The term mill was once in common use for a factory because many factories in the early stages of the Industrial Revolution were powered by a watermill, but nowadays it is ...
IsaMill, an energy-efficient mineral industry grinding mill that was jointly developed in the 1990s by Mount Isa Mines; Jet mill, grinds materials by using a high speed jet of compressed air or inert gas to impact particles into each other. Milling machine, a machine tool that performs milling (machining) Mortar and pestle
For comminution of finer particle size ranges (20mm > P 80 > 30 μm) machines like the ball mill, vertical roller mill, hammer mill, roller press or high compression roller mill, vibration mill, jet mill and others are used. For yet finer grind sizes (sometimes referred to as "ultrafine grinding"), specialist mills such as the IsaMill are used.
Cryogenic grinding, also known as freezer milling, freezer grinding, and cryomilling, is the act of cooling or chilling a material and then reducing it into a small particle size. For example, thermoplastics are difficult to grind to small particle sizes at ambient temperatures because they soften, adhere in lumpy masses and clog screens.

Traditional micronization techniques are based on friction to reduce particle size. Such methods include milling, bashing and grinding.A typical industrial mill is composed of a cylindrical metallic drum that usually contains steel spheres.
