Within the scope of the research, the effects of operating parameters including media filling ratio, solid mass fraction, grinding media size, and grinding time were studied. The findings were assessed based on the product particle size (d(50,)d(10)), surface area (S-w), and energy consumption (E-m). As a result of the present research, the following optimum grinding test conditions were determined: 65% media filling ratio, 40% solid mass fraction, 1 mm grinding media size, and 120 min grinding time. After determining the optimum grinding conditions, the Box-Behnken statistical design was used to determine the effect of parameter interactions on thed(50)size. The media filling ratio was found to significantly affect the decrease ind(50)compared to the other two parameters. Furthermore, the minimumd(50)size was also achieved under optimum grinding conditions.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessVertical stirred media millTalcWet grindingSubmicron particlesArticle3751717172710.1007/s42461-020-00270-12-s2.0-85089370099Q2WOS:000559286400002Q3
