January 14 , 2025Binders, Abrasive Distribution and Causes of Failure of Coated Abrasives
This article discusses the factors influencing the performance of coated abrasives, including the properties of binders, abrasive distribution states, and causes of failure. It details the adhesive types used in coated abrasives, such as phenolic resin and animal glue, and their applications. Key abrasive characteristics like shape, hardness, toughness, and self-sharpening are also analyzed, with comparisons between materials like silicon carbide, aluminum oxide, and zirconia corundum. The article explains failure modes of abrasives, such as dullness, clogging, and shedding, and provides recommendations for selecting abrasives based on different workpiece materials. Standards like FEPA and JIS are also mentioned for particle size classification.
