Preferred Label : milling;
Detailed label : milling (grinding);
IUPAC definition : The mechanical reduction of the particle size of a sample by attribution (friction),
impact or cutting. The required particle size of a sample is related to the size of
the test portion and the number of particles required to ensure homogeneity among
test portions. The reduction in particle size may sometimes result in particles of
different hardness and density, which produces inhomogeneity during the preparation
of the test sample or during the withdrawal of the test portion.;
