Abstract:
An abrasive rotary tool includes a tool shank defining an axis of rotation for the rotary tool, and an abrasive external working surface. The abrasive external working surface includes a resin, and a plurality of porous ceramic abrasive composites dispersed in the resin, the porous ceramic abrasive composites including individual abrasive particles dispersed in a porous ceramic matrix. At least a portion of the porous ceramic matrix comprises glassy ceramic material. A ratio of the average porous ceramic abrasive composite size to the average individual abrasive particle size is no greater than 15 to 1.
Abstract:
A polishing system includes a first carrier assembly configured to receive and hold a substrate and a polishing pad. The polishing pad includes a top major surface and a bottom major surface positioned opposite the top major surface, and a plurality of polishing elements extending from the top major surface of the polishing pad. The system further includes a polishing solution disposed between the top surface of the polishing pad and the substrate. The polishing fluid includes a fluid component, and a plurality of ceramic abrasive composites dispersed in the fluid component, the ceramic abrasive composites including individual abrasive particles dispersed in a porous ceramic matrix. The system further includes a second carrier assembly configured to receive and hold the polishing pad. The system is configured such that the polishing pad is movable relative to the substrate to carry out a polishing operation.
Abstract:
A method of forming a recess in a surface of a substrate includes: providing an abrasive article comprising a structured abrasive member disposed along a peripheral surface of a support member, frictionally contacting the structured abrasive layer with a surface of a substrate, longitudinally advancing the structured abrasive layer relative to the surface of the substrate; and rotating at least one of the abrasive article or the substrate relative to the other around a rotational axis perpendicular to the surface of the substrate such that the structured abrasive layer maintains contact with and abrades the surface of the substrate. The structured abrasive member comprises a structured abrasive layer comprising shaped abrasive composites secured to a backing, wherein the backing is proximate to the support member. The shaped abrasive composites comprise abrasive particles retained in a binder material. The present disclosure also provides an abrasive wheel comprises a structured abrasive member disposed on a peripheral surface of a support wheel and display covers including a spherically concave recess abutting a cylindrical passage.
