Abstract:
A method of forming a mixture including a ceramic material into a sheet, sectioning at least a portion of the sheet using a mechanical object and forming at least one shaped abrasive particle from the sheet, such that the at least one shaped abrasive particle can have a two-dimensional shape as viewed in a plane defined by a length and a width of the shaped abrasive particle selected from the group consisting of polygons, ellipsoids, numerals, Greek alphabet characters, Latin alphabet characters, Russian alphabet characters, complex shapes having a combination of polygonal shapes, and a combination thereof.
Abstract:
An abrasive grain is disclosed and may include a body. The body may define a length (l), a height (h), and a width (w). In a particular aspect, the length is greater than or equal to the height and the height is greater than or equal to the width. Further, in a particular aspect, the body may include a primary aspect ratio defined by the ratio of length:height of at least about 2:1. The body may also include an upright orientation probability of at least about 50%.
Abstract:
An abrasive particle having a body including a first major surface, a second major surface opposite the first major surface, and a side surface extending between the first major surface and the second major surface, such that a majority of the side surface comprises a plurality of microridges.

Abstract:
A shaped abrasive particle including a body having a first major surface, a second major surface, and a side surface joined to the first major surface and the second major surface, and the body has at least one partial cut extending from the side surface into the interior of the body.
Abstract:
A shaped abrasive particle including a body having a first major surface, a second major surface, and a side surface extending between the first major surface and the second major surface, wherein the body includes a sharpness-shape-strength factor (3SF) within a range between about 0.7 and about 1.7 and a Shape Index within a range between at least about 0.51 and not greater than about 0.99.
Abstract:
A method of forming an abrasive article includes depositing a mixture into an opening of a substrate, contacting an exposed surface of the mixture in the opening to a texturing form to form a textured preform, and removing the mixture from the opening and forming an abrasive particle having a textured surface.
Abstract:
A particulate material having a body including a first phase including alumina having an average crystallite size of not greater than 5 microns, and the body further including a second phase having a platelet shape.
Abstract:
A coated abrasive article having a substrate, a bond material overlying the substrate, and a layer of abrasive particles contained within the bond material, the abrasive particles comprising nanocrystalline alumina.
