Abrasive article containing a grinding aid and method of making the same

摘要

An abrasive article (10) is provided which includes a peripheral surface formed comprising a grinding aid. The grinding aid is formed from a mixture including a mineral acid or salt of a mineral acid or a mixture thereof and a salt of an organic acid. The acid is preferably selected so that the mixture forms a film. The abrasive article preferably has sharp abrasive particles (13, 32). The inventive abrasive article improves grinding efficacy, particularly in titanium grinding processes, as compared to abrasive articles that are substantially devoid of a grinding aid of the present invention.
