Study on Impact and Abrasion Resistance of Minerals Based on JK Drop Weight Test and Grinding Test

Most grinding operations are the process of reducing the particle size of ore materials under the combined action of impact and abrasion. The action mechanism of impact damage and abrasion damage of materials in the grinding process is different, and the ability of each constituent mineral of ore to resist impact damage and abrasion damage is different. In order to study the independent action mechanism and interaction law of impact and abrasion in grinding, mineral ores calcite, chalcopyrite, and sphalerite are studied in this paper. The JK drop weight test method and batch grinding test method are used to study the changes and laws of various indexes of three mineral ores under a single impact condition, a single abrasion condition, and the coexistence of the two effects. The results show that the impact crushing parameters of the three mineral ores and the corresponding hardness grade of the ores are related to the particle size. The smaller the particle size of the material, the smaller the value of the impact crushing capacity parameter A × b. The order of impact crushing resistance of the three mineral ores is consistent with the characterization results of ore Mohs hardness. Under the same particle size condition, the order of impact crushing parameter A × b of the three mineral ores is calcite > sphalerite > chalcopyrite. The first-order linear model can better fit the grinding kinetics in the cascading state, and its kinetic parameters are related to ore hardness and feed particle size. The t10 is more suitable to characterize the grinding effect in the dropping state than in the cascading state.
