What is the price of ceramic balls?
The following shows the prices of various ceramic balls, as ceramic balls are mainly divided into three types: inert ceramic balls, ground ceramic balls, and heat storage ceramic balls.

Price list
The starting price for inert ceramic balls is $555 per ton
The starting price for grinding ceramic balls is $700 per ton
The starting price for heat storage ceramic balls is $600 per ton

Factors influencing the price of inert ceramic balls
The content of aluminium oxide: As the main raw material of medium and high aluminium inert ceramic balls is aluminium oxide, the higher the content of aluminium oxide, the better the quality and the higher the corresponding price. This is also the reason why many users emphasize the content of aluminium oxide.

Packaging methods: The packaging methods for inert ceramic balls include fumigation-free pallets, ton bags, and iron drums. The price difference among them is nearly 60 US dollars. Therefore, the packaging method should be clearly defined before quoting.

Of course, the technical requirements, customization requirements, quantity, transportation distance and tariffs of inert ceramic balls will all affect the price of inert ceramic balls.

The functions and application fields of inert ceramic balls
Inert ceramic balls, due to their excellent chemical stability, high strength and non-participation in chemical reactions, mainly play the roles of supporting, covering, evenly distributing media and protecting catalysts in industrial production. In reactors, absorption towers, regeneration towers and other equipment in industries such as petrochemicals, coal chemicals, fertilizers and environmental protection, they can serve as support or covering layers for catalysts, preventing the catalysts from being eroded and crushed by gas flow. At the same time, they can evenly distribute gas or liquid media, optimize reaction efficiency, and also fill the bottom or top space of the equipment to avoid catalyst leakage and reduce dead volume. Ensure the stable operation of the process.

The function and application places of grinding ceramic balls
Grinding ceramic balls, with their high hardness, strong wear resistance, good chemical stability and low risk of material contamination, are mainly used in the grinding and dispersion of materials. In industries such as ceramics, coatings, inks, pigments, mining, and electronic materials, it is often used in conjunction with equipment like ball mills. Through the collision and friction between balls and between balls and materials, blocky and granular materials are ground to micron or even nanometer fineness. For instance, in the preparation of ceramic blanks, particles are refined to enhance product density, and in the production of coatings, pigments are dispersed to ensure uniform color. In the mining industry, crushing ores to extract effective components and so on can efficiently achieve ultrafine grinding and uniform mixing of materials.

What are the functions and application places of heat storage ceramic balls?
Heat storage ceramic balls, with their high heat capacity, excellent thermal conductivity and thermal shock resistance, mainly function to store and release heat, achieving efficient energy recovery and utilization. In fields such as industrial furnaces and kilns (such as steel rolling heating furnaces and ceramic kilns), waste heat recovery systems, regenerative combustion devices, and solar thermal energy storage, it can absorb heat at high temperatures and release it when needed, effectively improving energy utilization efficiency, reducing heat loss, and optimizing the temperature distribution during the combustion process, thereby facilitating energy conservation and consumption reduction in industrial production and the efficient application of clean energy.
