Abrasive Article Including Shaped Abrasive Particles | Publication Date: 3.30.15

Summary:

A fixed abrasive article can include a blend of abrasive particles. The blend of abrasive particles can include a first type of shaped abrasive particle and a second type of shaped abrasive particle. The first and second types of shaped abrasive particles can be different from one another. For example, the first type of shaped abrasive particle can be defined by a first height (h1) and the second type of shaped abrasive particle can be defined by a second height (h2). The blend of abrasive particles can include a first content of the first type of shaped abrasive particles and a second content of the second type of shaped abrasive particles, where the first content is different than the second content. Some suitable processes used to fabricate the shaped abrasive particles can include, but is not limited to, screen-printing, molding, pressing, casting, sectioning, cutting, dicing, punching, drying, curing, depositing, coating, extruding, rolling, and a combination thereof.
