- (c) a high elastic modulus bond in which the particles are carried.
- 13. Abrasive wheel as recited in claim 12, wherein a portion of the silicon carbide particles is replaced by abrasive particles selected from the group consisting of fused alumina particles, and bubble alumina, and wherein an active filler grinding aid is carried in the bond.
- 14. Abrasive wheel as recited in claim 13, wherein the filler grinding aid is a mixture of FeS.sub.2 and K.sub.2 SO.sub.4.
- 15. Abrasive wheel as recited in claim 13, wherein the filler grinding aid is selected from the group consisting of FeS.sub.2, K.sub.2 SO.sub.4, Na.sub.3 AlF.sub.6, and K.sub.3 AlF.sub.6, KAlF.sub.4, and mixtures thereof.
- 16. Abrasive wheel as recited in claim 12, wherein the bond is a resin selected from the group consisting of phenolic and epoxy resins.
- 17. Abrasive wheel as recited in claim 12, wherein the particles of filamentary shape have an average aspect ratio of at least 1.0, have a hardness of at least 16 GPa, and are formed of alpha alumina crystals having a size no greater than 1 micron.
