The "ZOLI Laboratory ball mill, nano-scale grinding machine, high-speed sample preparation, planetary small vertical ball mill" describes a compact, vertical planetary ball mill from the ZOLI brand. It is engineered to be a high-speed, efficient solution for preparing samples down to the nanoscale, making it a versatile workhorse for advanced research and development.

1. A) "ZOLI"

   Brand Identity: This specifies the manufacturer or product line. As a branded product, it implies a consistent level of quality, defined specifications, and manufacturer support.

2. B) "Planetary Small Vertical Ball Mill"

   Core Technology & Design: This defines the machine's fundamental mechanics and physical form.

   Planetary: Operates on the high-energy principle of jars rotating on their own axis while orbiting a central point.

   Small & Vertical: Indicates a compact, benchtop instrument with a vertical orientation, which saves lab space and often provides a stable, low-vibration operation.

3. C) "Nano-scale Grinding Machine"

   Primary Performance Claim: This is the key capability. The mill is designed to reduce particle sizes to the nanometer range (1-100 nm).

   How it's Achieved: This requires a combination of:

   • High Speeds to generate immense impact forces.
   • Precise Control over time and speed.
   • Compatibility with high-purity, wear-resistant grinding media (like Zirconia or Agate jars and balls).
4. D) "High-Speed Sample Preparation"

   Key User Benefit: This highlights the mill's efficiency and power.

   High-Speed: Powered by a robust motor capable of high rotational speeds (often over 1000 RPM), significantly reducing processing time.

   Sample Preparation: Emphasizes its role in quickly getting samples ready for analysis (e.g., for XRD, SEM, ICP-MS).

A ZOLI mill matching this description would typically feature:

• Type: Vertical Planetary Ball Mill
• Grinding Stations: 2 or 4 jars
• Jar Capacity: Common sizes: 50ml, 100ml, 250ml.
• Control System: Digital programmable controller for speed (RPM) and time.
• Speed Range: Wide range, often from 100 to 1500 RPM.
• Safety: Automatic shut-off when the lid is opened.

This ZOLI mill is a versatile tool for numerous R&D fields:

• Pharmaceuticals: Nano-milling of drugs to enhance bioavailability.
• Materials Science: Creating nano-powders for composites, batteries, and catalysts.
• Geology: Pulverizing rock and soil samples to a homogeneous powder for accurate analysis.
• Chemistry: Mechanochemical synthesis and creating stable nano-suspensions.
