Claims
- 1. An abrasive article comprising abrasive particles dispersed in a bond material in which the abrasive particles comprise microcrystalline alumina and a superabrasive and the superabrasive provides from at least about 10% to about 55% of the volume of the article and from about 25% to about 90% of the volume of abrasive particles use in the article.
- 2. An abrasive article according to claim 1 in which the superabrasive particles provide from 20 to 45% of the volume of the wheel.
- 3. An abrasive article according to claim 1 in which the superabrasive provides from 40% to 80% of the volume of the abrasive particles.
- 4. An abrasive article according to claim 1 in which the microcrystalline alumina is a seeded sol gel alumina.
- 5. An abrasive article according to claim 1 in which the superabrasive is CBN.
- 6. An abrasive article comprising abrasive particles dispersed in a bond material in which the abrasive particles comprise from 20 to 60% of the volume of the article, and are provided by a mixture of CBN and seeded sol-gel alumina abrasive articles with the superabrasive providing from 50 to 90% of the volume of the particles.
- 7. An abrasive article according to claim 1 in the form of a wheel.
- 8. An abrasive article according to claim 6 in the form of a wheel.
- 9. An abrasive wheel having hub and rim portions in which the rim portion is a abrasive article according to claim 1.
- 10. An abrasive wheel having hub and rim portions in which the rim portion is an abrasive article according to claim 6.
- 11. An abrasive article according to claim 1 in which the bond is a vitreous material.
- 12. An abrasive article according to claim 1 in which the bond is a resinous material.
- 13. An abrasive article according to claim 6 in which the bond is vitreous material.
- 14. An abrasive article according to claim 6 in which the bond is a resinous material.
- 15. An abrasive wheel according to claim 9 in which the abrasive particles are held in a metallic bond.
- 16. An abrasive wheel according to claim 9 which a least some of the abrasive particles are metal coated before being incorporated in the bond material.
- 17. An abrasive wheel according to claim 10 which the abrasive particles are held in a metallic bond.
- 18. An abrasive wheel according to claim 10 in which at least some of the abrasive particles are metal coated before being incorporated in the bond material.
