Abstract
Silicon seed particles which can be used for producing polycrystalline silicon granules in a fluidized-bed reactor are prepared by a process wherein a milling gas stream is introduced into a chamber containing polycrystalline silicon granules, as a result of which individual particles of the polycrystalline silicon granules are accelerated in such a manner that they collide with other particles of the polycrystalline silicon granules, and in this manner the polycrystalline silicon granules are comminuted, wherein the milling gas stream is introduced into the chamber by at least one jet nozzle made of hard metal.
