Sample assessment
The titanate powders have separate processing notes. The favorable potassium-titanate observation cannot automatically supply an outcome for calcium or strontium titanate. The laboratory test record documents this preparation only; applying the method to another batch requires a matched trial.
Recorded objective
Sample after 15 minutes and 1 hour and observe the milling behaviour.
Equipment and selection
The recorded planetary machine is XQM. The corresponding TENCAN family is the Vertical Planetary Ball Mill. The jar volume identifies the test container and does not establish an exact machine variant or production capacity. Equipment association follows the recorded machine designation.
Test setup
| Recorded planetary machine | XQM |
|---|---|
| Documented setup | 500 mL polyurethane jar with standard zirconia balls; potassium-titanate charge 193 g; dry milling; speed setting 480. |
| Recorded operating cycle | Run 5 / pause 1; units not stated in mode field |
Speed values are reproduced as recorded settings. A rotational unit and planetary-disc versus jar-speed basis are not stated, so these numbers are not labelled rpm.
Recorded procedure and results
The potassium-titanate trial was sampled after 15 minutes. Its observed effect was described as satisfactory at 1 hour. Processing then continued for a further recorded 6-hour period before material removal; the source does not resolve the cumulative clock convention. Calcium titanate was sampled at 15 minutes and removed after 1 hour. Strontium titanate is noted as following the same requested procedure, without additional measurements.
Interpretation
The favorable observation specifically belongs to potassium titanate at 1 hour. It is qualitative; no size threshold, particle distribution or numerical comparison of the three titanates is supplied. Later completion alone does not add a size or functional-property result.
Practical precautions
Keep each titanate identified separately and define a measurable endpoint before transferring the method. Check jar wear and compatibility, and collect size and temperature data if the next study is intended to compare the materials.
TENCAN alternatives to evaluate
For follow-up comparison, consider the TENCAN Omnidirectional Planetary Ball Mill. For potassium, calcium and strontium titanate powders, a matched QXQM trial can test whether changing orientation affects the observed potassium-titanate behaviour with a defined size test. Keep sample mass, media and sampling times controlled. This is a proposed comparison; the test record does not demonstrate a superior result for that alternative. Confirm jar compatibility and the permitted complete loaded mass before selecting a configuration.
Procedure records XQM; related product is the corresponding tested machine family. Exact variant is not inferred from jar size.
