FIXED ABRASIVE WIRE

摘要

There is provided a fixed abrasive wire having abrasives fixed thereon with a superior fixing strength. The abrasives are fixed on the wire by electroplating in which the wire is subjected to a degreasing step, an acid cleaning step, a rinsing step and an electroplating step sequentially. A plating liquid used in the electroplating step contains a nickel-containing organic acid or a nickel-containing inorganic acid, a leveling agent, and the abrasives. It is a feature that a plated coat being over the top of each of the abrasives has a smaller thickness than a theoretical value.
