Characterization of Superabrasives Using Particle Shape

From Fluid Imaging Technologies
 

 

Superabrasives, such as micronized diamonds and cubic boron nitride (CBN), are used extensively in applications for cutting, grinding and drilling of hard materials. Most typically, tools such as saw blades, drill bits, grinders, etc. are coated with superabrasives in order to allow the tools to go through materials such as rocks, steel, concrete, etc., where standard tools would be incapable of working
