Here's one to add to the "weird mechanosynthesis" pile.According to this paper, you can do hydrogenation reactions in a stainless-steel ball mill, without any sort of noble-metal catalyst.The hydrogen is produced when you add some n-alkane or diethyl ether to the mix (these actually get converted to gaseous methane and hydrogen under the milling conditions).
Mixing solid reactants in a ball mill is a promising means of avoiding the copious solvent waste associated with most chemical syntheses. et al. now report that adding a piezoelectric catalyst to the mix can promote bond formation through apparent electron transfer cycles (see the Perspective by Xia and Wang).

Ball mill is the important grinding equipment in the beneficiation production line. However, many unnecessary mechanical failures occur for lack of ball mill usage knowledge.
Performance of such reactions in Ball Mills afforded some precautions since azides are in general shock-sensitive materials. However, phlegmatization of the reaction mixture with quartz sand as milling auxiliary provides the respective 1,4substituted 1,2,3- -triazoles in yields ranging from 80 to 98% [7].
The pilot set-up of a horizontal high energy ball mill (Simoloyer ®) that has been successful in reactive milling, mechanical alloying, and formation of ductile metal-flakes is used for semi-continuous processing of organic solid–solid reactions which proceed rapidly and without wastes in the absence of solvents. 200 g batches were run in the exploratory investigation.

The ball mill could then also become the means of choice for ammonia synthesis". Explore further The new alchemy in carbon neutrality: Turning water into ammonia with only renewable energy
The main reactions described in this book are related to the following processes: carbon–carbon and carbon–heteroatom bond formation, oxidation-reduction, organocatalytic reactions, dehydrogenative coupling, synthesis of peptides and polymeric materials.
as well as material sciences [1–4]. During ball milling, up to 80 % of the energy that is generated in the mill is dis-sipated as heat [5]. This is why measurement and control of the temperature in the ball mills is important, for example, if heat-sensitive products are formed that would be degraded, or side reactions that would be favored at ...
Ball milling can be used to induce solid state reactions in a variety of technologies, including the activation of silicates, inorganic synthesis, and mechanical alloying. Möss spectroscopy is a powerful tool to study these processes. Some typical examples are discussed in this paper, concerning disordering, alloying, and simple chemical reactions. Many more industrial …

The solution‐based reaction in dry THF and under nitrogen atmosphere at 50 °C with either zinc flakes or granular zinc (no additive used) resulted in low yields of 7 and 4 %, respectively (Scheme 4 B), whereas under ball‐milling conditions without any solvent, inert gas, or additive (Table 2), the reaction proceeded smoothly in 2 h and all ...
In all ore dressing and milling Operations, including flotation, cyanidation, gravity concentration, and amalgamation, the Working Principle is to crush and grind, often with rod mill or ball mill, the ore in order to liberate the minerals. In the chemical and process industries, grinding is an important step in preparing raw materials for subsequent treatment.
Ball milling is a way to exfoliate graphite using lateral force, as opposed to the Scotch Tape or sonication that mainly use normal force. Ball mills, like the three roll machine, are a common occurrence in industry, for the production of fine particles. During the ball milling process, there are two factors that contribute to the exfoliation.
