Customer Background
Ascenza is a leading agrochemical company in the Iberian market, developing and supplying crop protection solutions including fungicides, herbicides, and other agricultural formulations.
Application
- Laboratory formulation development
- Fine grinding of agrochemical active ingredients
- Fungicide and herbicide formulation research
- Small-batch processing of sensitive materials
- Particle size reduction to below 10 μm
Project Requirements
For its laboratory formulation development, Ascenza needed to process small batches of sensitive agrochemical materials requiring particle sizes below 10 μm.
The laboratory-scale system needed to provide controlled fine grinding while minimizing heat generation and allowing researchers to evaluate different formulations efficiently.
Solution: Laboratory-Scale Jet Mill
ZYLAB supplied Ascenza with a laboratory-scale jet mill designed for fine and ultrafine particle size reduction.
The jet mill uses high-velocity compressed gas to accelerate particles and achieve size reduction through particle-to-particle impact, without conventional grinding media. This makes jet milling suitable for applications where contamination and excessive heat generation need to be minimized.
For laboratory-scale agrochemical research, the system provides:
- Fine particle size reduction for materials requiring particle sizes below 10 μm
- Low-temperature grinding suitable for temperature-sensitive materials
- No grinding media, helping minimize media-related contamination
- Small-batch processing for laboratory formulation development
- Controlled particle size for formulation and process evaluation
- Compact laboratory configuration for R&D environments
Supporting Agrochemical Formulation Research
The laboratory jet mill gives Ascenza’s R&D team greater flexibility when evaluating fine-particle agrochemical formulations.
By producing small batches with controlled particle sizes, researchers can investigate the influence of particle size on formulation performance and optimize processing conditions before moving to larger-scale production.
The system can be used for research involving fungicides, herbicides and other agrochemical materials where fine particle size is an important processing requirement.
Project Value
This project provides Ascenza with a dedicated laboratory-scale solution for fine grinding of sensitive agrochemical materials and supports its ongoing formulation development work.
The ability to process small batches and target particle sizes below 10 μm makes laboratory jet milling a useful tool for agrochemical R&D, formulation optimization and fine powder processing.
