We use zirconia beads in many things we produce, and we also come into contact with them when adding them. When grinding food and medicine, zirconia beads will also be mixed with materials.
Then some people began to worry: Are zirconia beads toxic?
Here we look at it from several angles:
1. Zirconia is not radioactive. Zirconia beads belong to ceramic beads. Ceramics are very common items and are not toxic when in contact, so there is no need to worry when using zirconia beads or adding zirconium beads.
2. When grinding zirconia beads, if broken beads are produced, or residues are mixed in the grinding process, it is necessary to precipitate or filter them out as much as possible, especially when grinding injectable drugs. Different manufacturers of zirconia beads have different qualities. At present, some domestic manufacturers produce low-quality zirconium beads with broken beads, which need to be carefully selected.
3. There will be dust when producing zirconia beads, and you need to pay attention to protection.
4. It is possible that the impurities in the raw materials of zirconia beads are toxic, which is a potential danger.
It is recommended to use abrasive zirconium beads. The raw materials are strictly controlled and have been used in medicine and food for a long time. There are no broken beads and there is no need to worry about impurities.
