Air jet micronization is a well proven technique that consistently produces particles in the 1-30 micron range. Micron Technologies is a leader in air jet milling, having evolved from a manufacturer of jet mills with some contract milling to exclusively a contract micronizer.

The primary advantages of air jet micronizers are; particle reduction occurs via particle to particle collisions with limited reduction from metal to product contact and no generation of heat . Other advantages include no moving parts and easy to clean surfaces

The primary benefit to micronizing is the increase in solubility/bioavailability due to the increase in surface area.
