Abstract
A sample of a coarse variety .of china clay was ground in a laboratory ball mill
for different periods. Particle size distribution and b.e.c. of the different sampleS.
obtained were measured. It was found that by grinding, the coarse particles were
considerably reduced in size whereas fine particles were not appreciably affected.
A linear relation between b.e.c. and specific surface calculated from particle size
distribut£~m data was obtained.
