For example, a range of "about 0.1% to about 5%" or "about 0.1% to 5%" should be interpreted to include not only about 0.1% to about 5%, but also the individual values (e.g., 1%, 2%, 3%, and 4%) and the sub-ranges (e.g., 0.1% to 0.5%, 1.1% to 2.2%, 3.3% to 4.4%) within the indicated range. The expression "about X to Y" has the same meaning as "about X to about Y" unless otherwise indicated. Also, unless otherwise indicated, the expression "about X, Y or about Z" has the same meaning as "about X, about Y, or about Z".
In this document, the terms "a," "an," or "the" are used to include one or more than one unless the context clearly dictates otherwise. The term "or" is used to refer to a non-exclusive "or" unless otherwise indicated. The expression "at least one of a and B" has the same meaning as "A, B or a and B". Also, it is to be understood that the phraseology or terminology employed herein, and not otherwise defined, is for the purpose of description only and not of limitation. Any use of partial headings is intended to aid understanding of the document and should not be construed as limiting; information related to a section title may occur within or outside of the particular section.
In the methods described herein, various acts may be performed in any order, other than the explicitly recited times or sequences of operations, without departing from the principles of the invention. Furthermore, the specified actions may be performed concurrently unless the explicit claim language suggests that they are performed separately. For example, the claimed acts of doing X and the claimed acts of doing Y may occur simultaneously in a single operation, and the resulting process would fall within the literal scope of the claimed process.
As used herein, the term "about" may allow a degree of variability, for example, in a numerical value or range, for example, within 10%, within 5% or within 1% of the stated value or range limit, and includes the value or range specifically stated.
As used herein, the term "substantially" refers to a majority or majority, such as at least about 50%, 60%, 70%, 80%, 90%, 95%, 96%, 97%, 98%, 99%, 99.5%, 99.9%, 99.99%, or at least about 99.999% or more, or 100%.
As used herein, "shaped abrasive particles" means abrasive particles having a predetermined or non-random shape. One process for preparing shaped abrasive particles, such as shaped ceramic abrasive particles, includes shaping precursor ceramic abrasive particles in a mold having a predetermined shape to prepare ceramic shaped abrasive particles. The ceramic shaped abrasive particles formed in the mold are one of the classes of shaped ceramic abrasive particles. Other processes for preparing other types of shaped ceramic abrasive particles include extruding precursor ceramic abrasive particles through orifices having a predetermined shape, stamping the precursor ceramic abrasive particles through openings in a printing screen having a predetermined shape, or embossing the precursor ceramic abrasive particles into a predetermined shape or pattern. In other examples, the shaped ceramic abrasive particles may be cut from a sheet into individual particles. Examples of suitable cutting methods include mechanical cutting, laser cutting, or water jet cutting. Non-limiting examples of shaped ceramic abrasive particles include shaped abrasive particles such as triangular plates or elongated ceramic rods/filaments. The shaped ceramic abrasive particles are generally uniform or substantially uniform and retain their sintered shape without the use of binders such as organic or inorganic binders that bind the smaller abrasive particles into an agglomerate structure, but without the inclusion of abrasive particles obtained by crushing or comminuting processes that produce abrasive particles of random size and shape. In many embodiments, the shaped ceramic abrasive particles comprise, consist essentially of, or consist of a homogeneous structure of sintered alpha alumina.
Fig. 1 is a perspective view of an abrasive article 10. FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view of the abrasive article of FIG. 1 taken along section line 2-2. Fig. 1 and 2 show substantially the same components and are discussed at the same time. As shown in fig. 1 and 2, the abrasive article 10 includes a nonwoven web 12. Nonwoven web 12 includes a first major surface 14 and an opposing second major surface 16. Each of the first and second major surfaces 14, 16 has an irregular or substantially non-planar profile, but in other embodiments either surface may be planar. Nonwoven web 12 includes a fibrous component 18 that includes individual fibers 20. Nonwoven web 12 also includes abrasive particles 22 dispersed in nonwoven web 12; the binder 24 adheres the abrasive particles to the individual fibers 20.
Although not limited thereto, the fiber component 18 may be less than, equal to, or greater than about 5 wt%, 10 wt%, 15 wt%, 20 wt%, 25 wt%, 30 wt%, 35 wt%, or 40 wt% within the range of about 5 wt% to about 40 wt%, about 10 wt% to about 20 wt%, about 12 wt% to about 15 wt% of the abrasive article 10. The fiber component 18 may include a plurality of individual fibers 20 that are randomly oriented and entangled relative to one another. The individual fibers 20 are bonded to each other at points of mutual contact. The individual fibers 20 may be staple fibers or continuous fibers. As generally understood, "staple fibers" refers to fibers of discrete length, and "continuous fibers" refers to fibers that may be any suitable fibers or filaments such as synthetic filaments or inorganic fibers such as steel filaments, glass fibers, basalt fibers. The steel may be stainless steel, carbon steel, or comprise a metal such as copper or an alloy such as brass. Individual fibers 20 may range from about 70 wt% to about 100 wt%, from about 80 wt% to about 90 wt% of the fiber component 18, less than, equal to, or greater than about 70 wt%, 75 wt%, 80 wt%, 85 wt%, 90 wt%, 95 wt%, or 100 wt% of the fiber component 18. In further embodiments, the nonwoven web 12 may be free of the fibrous component 18 or individual fibers 20 and, conversely, may comprise a sponge or foam material that includes random or ordered cavities.
The individual staple fibers may have a length in the range of about 35mm to 155mm, 50mm to about 105mm, about 40mm to about 60mm, less than, equal to, or greater than about 35mm, 40mm, 45mm, 50mm, 55mm, 60mm, 65mm, 70mm, 75mm, 76mm, 80mm, 85mm, 90mm, 95mm, 100mm, 102mm, 105mm, 110mm, 115mm, 120mm, 125mm, 130mm, 135mm, 140mm, 145mm, 150mm, or 155 mm. The individual staple fibers may have a curl index value in the range of about 15% to about 60%, about 25% to about 50%, less than, equal to, or greater than about 15%, 20%, 25%, 30%, 35%, 40%, 45%, 50%, 55%, or 60%. Curl index is a measure of the curl produced; for example, before inducing substantial crimp in the fibers. The curl index is expressed as the difference of the length of the fiber in the extended state minus the length of the fiber in the relaxed (e.g., shortened) state divided by the length of the fiber in the extended state. The staple fibers may have a fineness or linear density in the range of about 15 to about 2000 denier, about 20 to about 100 denier, about 500 to about 700 denier, about 800 to about 1000 denier, about 900 to about 1000 denier, less than, equal to, or greater than about 200 denier, 250 denier, 300 denier, 350 denier, 400 denier, 450 denier, 500 denier, 550 denier, 600 denier, 650 denier, 700 denier, 750 denier, 800 denier, 850 denier, 900 denier, 950 denier, 1000 denier, 1050 denier, 1100 denier, 1150 denier, 1200 denier, 1250 denier, 1300 denier, 1350 denier, 1400 denier, 1450 denier, 1500 denier, 1550 denier, 1600 denier, 1650 denier, 1700, 1750 denier, 1800 denier, 1850 denier, 1900, 1950 denier, 2000 denier.
In some examples, the fiber component 18 may include a blend of short fibers. For example, the fibrous component 18 may include a first plurality of individual staple fibers and a second plurality of individual staple fibers. The first plurality of staple fibers and the second plurality of staple fibers in the blend may be different with respect to at least one of a linear density value, a crimp index, or a length. For example, the linear density of the individual staple fibers of the first plurality of individual fibers may range from about 15 denier to about 700 denier, from about 20 denier to about 100 denier, less than, equal to, or greater than about 200 denier, 250 denier, 300 denier, 350 denier, 400 denier, 450 denier, 500 denier, 550 denier, 600 denier, 650 denier, or about 700 denier. The linear density of the individual staple fibers of the second plurality of individual fibers can range from about 800 denier to about 2000 denier, from about 850 denier to about 1000 denier, less than, equal to or greater than about 800 denier, 850 denier, 900 denier, 950 denier, 1000 denier, 1050 denier, 1100 denier, 1150 denier, 1200 denier, 1250 denier, 1300 denier, 1350 denier, 1400 denier, 1450 denier, 1500 denier, 1550 denier, 1600 denier, 1650 denier, 1700 denier, 1750 denier, 1800 denier, 1850 denier, 1900 denier, 1950 denier or 2000 denier. Mixtures of individual staple fibers having different linear densities can be used, for example, to provide an abrasive article that can achieve a desired surface finish in use. The length or curl index of any of the individual fibers can be according to the values discussed herein.
In examples of abrasive articles that include a blend of individual staple fibers, the first plurality of individual staple fibers and the second plurality of individual staple fibers may consider different portions of the fiber component 18. For example, the first plurality of individual fibers 20 may be less than, equal to, or greater than about 20 wt%, 25 wt%, 30 wt%, 35 wt%, 40 wt%, 45 wt%, 50 wt%, 55 wt%, 60 wt%, 65 wt%, 70 wt%, 75 wt%, or 80 wt% within a range of about 20 wt% to about 80 wt%, about 30 wt% to about 40 wt% of the fiber component 18. The second plurality of individual fibers 20 may be in the range of about 20 wt% to about 80 wt%, about 60 wt% to about 70 wt% of the fiber component 18, less than, equal to, or greater than about 20 wt%, 25 wt%, 30 wt%, 35 wt%, 40 wt%, 45 wt%, 50 wt%, 55 wt%, 60 wt%, 65 wt%, 70 wt%, 75 wt%, or 80 wt%. Although two plurality of individual staple fibers are discussed herein, additional plurality of individual staple fibers, such as a third plurality of individual staple fibers, that differ in at least one of linear density value, crimp index, and/or length relative to the first and second plurality of individual fibers 20 are included within the scope of the present disclosure.
The individual fibers 20 of nonwoven web 12 may comprise any number of suitable materials. Factors that influence the choice of material include whether the material is suitably compatible with the adhering binder and abrasive particles 22 while also being processable in combination with other components of the abrasive article 10, and the ability of the material to withstand processing conditions (e.g., temperature) such as those employed during application and curing of the binder. The material of the fibers 20 may also be selected to affect properties of the abrasive article 10, such as flexibility, elasticity, durability or lifetime, abrasiveness, and finishing properties. Examples of fibers 20 that may be suitable include natural fibers, synthetic fibers, and mixtures of natural and/or synthetic fibers. Examples of synthetic fibers include those made from polyesters (e.g., polyethylene terephthalate), nylons (e.g., nylon-6, polycaprolactam), polypropylenes, acrylonitriles (e.g., acrylic resins), rayon, cellulose acetate, polyvinylidene chloride-vinyl chloride copolymers, polyesters (e.g., polyester terephthalic acid), and vinyl chloride-acrylonitrile copolymers. Examples of suitable natural fibers include cotton, wool, jute, and hemp. Some individual fibers 20 may comprise inorganic materials, steel, glass, or basalt. The steel may be stainless steel, carbon steel, or comprise a metal such as copper or an alloy such as brass. The individual fibers 20 may be of natural material or recycled or waste material recovered, for example, from apparel cutting, carpet manufacturing, fiber manufacturing, or textile processing. The individual fibers 20 may be uniform or may be composite materials such as bicomponent fibers (e.g., co-spun sheath-core fibers). The individual fibers 20 may be drawn and crimped staple fibers.
In some examples, individual fibers 20 may have a non-circular cross-sectional shape or a blend of individual fibers 20 having circular and non-circular cross-sectional shapes (e.g., triangular, delta, H, trilobal, rectangular, square, dog bone, ribbon, or oval).
The abrasive article 10 comprises an abrasive component comprising shaped abrasive particles 22 adhered to individual fibers 20. The shaped abrasive particles 22 may be in the range of about 5 wt.% to about 70 wt.%, about 40 wt.% to about 60 wt.% of the abrasive article 10, less than, equal to, or greater than about 5 wt.%, 10 wt.%, 15 wt.%, 20 wt.%, 25 wt.%, 30 wt.%, 35 wt.%, 40 wt.%, 45 wt.%, 50 wt.%, 55 wt.%, 60 wt.%, 65 wt.%, or 70 wt.%.
There are many types of abrasive particles 22 that may be included in the abrasive article 10, including shaped ceramic abrasive particles and conventional abrasive particles. The abrasive component may include only shaped abrasive particles 22 or conventional abrasive particles. The abrasive component may also include shaped abrasive particles 22 or a blend of conventional abrasive particles. For example, the abrasive component can comprise from about 5 wt.% to about 95 wt.% of the shaped abrasive particles 22, from about 10 wt.% to about 50 wt.% of the shaped abrasive particles 22, less than, equal to, or greater than about 5 wt.%, 10 wt.%, 15 wt.%, 20 wt.%, 25 wt.%, 30 wt.%, 35 wt.%, 40 wt.%, 45 wt.%, 50 wt.%, 55 wt.%, 60 wt.%, 65 wt.%, 70 wt.%, 75 wt.%, 80 wt.%, 85 wt.%, 90 wt.%, 95 wt.% of the shaped abrasive particles 22, and the remaining percentage of the conventional abrasive particles. As another example, the abrasive component can comprise about 5 wt.% to about 95 wt.% of the conventional abrasive particles, about 30 wt.% to about 70 wt.% of the conventional abrasive particles, less than, equal to, or greater than about 5 wt.%, 10 wt.%, 15 wt.%, 20 wt.%, 25 wt.%, 30 wt.%, 35 wt.%, 40 wt.%, 45 wt.%, 50 wt.%, 55 wt.%, 60 wt.%, 65 wt.%, 70 wt.%, 75 wt.%, 80 wt.%, 85 wt.%, 90 wt.%, 95 wt.% of the conventional abrasive particles, and the remaining percentage of the shaped abrasive particles.
The abrasive particles 22 may be applied to the fibers as individual abrasive particles (e.g., particles 22 that are not held together with a binder and applied to the fibers 20) or as agglomerates (e.g., particles 22 that are held together with a binder and applied to the fibers 20). Some agglomerates may include glass-bonded or resin-bonded particles 22. Agglomerates may include crushed abrasive particles, particles 22.
The shaped abrasive particles 22 comprise any one or more abrasive particles in which at least a portion of the abrasive particles have a predetermined shape. The predetermined shape may be replicated, for example, from a mold cavity used to form the precursor shaped abrasive particles. In embodiments in which the shaped abrasive particles 22 are formed in a mold cavity, the predetermined geometry may substantially replicate the mold cavity used to form the shaped abrasive particles 22. In examples where the shaped abrasive particles 22 are formed by extrusion, the shaped abrasive particles 22 may also replicate the shape of the mold. If the shaped abrasive particles 22 or abrasive article 10 are formed by an additive manufacturing process, the shaped abrasive particles 22 may also replicate the shape that exists in a program, such as a Computer Aided Design (CAD) program. The shaped abrasive particles 22 do not refer to randomly sized crushed abrasive particles formed, for example, by a mechanical crushing operation.
As an example of a shaped abrasive particle 22 having a planar triangular shape, fig. 3A-3B illustrate a triangular shaped abrasive particle 22 defined by a triangular base 30, a triangular top 32, and a plurality of sidewalls 34A, 34B, 34C connecting the base 30 and the top 32. The base 30 has tips 36A, 36B, 36C that have an average radius of curvature of less than 50 microns. Fig. 3C-3D illustrate one face of the shaped abrasive particle 22 to better illustrate the radius of curvature of the tip 36A. Generally, the smaller the radius of curvature, the sharper the sidewall edge will be. In some cases, the base and top of the shaped abrasive particles are substantially parallel, resulting in a prismatic or truncated pyramid (as shown in fig. 3A-3B) shape, but this is not required. As shown, the side walls 34A, 34B, and 34C are of equal size and form a dihedral angle of about 82 degrees with the base 30. However, it should be understood that other dihedral angles (including 90 degrees) may be used. For example, the dihedral angle between the base and each sidewall may independently be in the range of 45 degrees to 90 degrees, 70 degrees to 90 degrees, or 75 degrees to 85 degrees.
Fig. 4A to 4E show examples of the shaped abrasive particles 22 having a tetrahedral shape. As shown in fig. 4A to 4E, the tetrahedrally-shaped abrasive particles 22 are shaped as regular tetrahedrons. As shown in FIG. 4A, tetrahedrally-shaped abrasive particle 22A has four faces (42A, 44A, 46A and 48A) joined by six sides (50A, 52A, 54A, 56A, 58A and 60A) terminating in four tips (62A, 64A, 66A and 68A). Each face contacts the other three faces at the edges. Although a regular tetrahedron is depicted in fig. 4A (e.g., having six equilateral and four faces), it will be appreciated that other shapes are also permissible. For example, tetrahedrally-shaped abrasive particles 22A may be shaped as irregular (e.g., sides having different lengths) tetrahedrons.
Referring now to fig. 4B, tetrahedrally-shaped abrasive particle 22B has four faces (42B, 44B, 46B, and 48B) joined by six sides (50B, 52B, 54B, 56B, 58B, and 60B) terminating at four tips (62B, 64B, 66B, and 68B). Each face is concave and contacts the other three faces at a respective common edge. Although particles with tetrahedral symmetry (e.g., four three axes of symmetry and six planes of symmetry) are depicted in fig. 4B, it will be appreciated that other shapes are also permissible. For example, tetrahedrally-shaped abrasive particles 22B can have one, two, or three concave surfaces, with the remaining surfaces being planar.
Referring now to fig. 4C, tetrahedrally-shaped abrasive particle 22C has four faces (42C, 44C, 46C, and 48C) joined by six sides (50C, 52C, 54C, 56C, 58C, and 60C) terminating at four tips (62C, 64C, 66C, and 68C). Each face is convex and contacts the other three faces at a respective common edge. Although particles with tetrahedral symmetry are depicted in fig. 4C, it will be appreciated that other shapes are also permissible. For example, tetrahedrally-shaped abrasive particles 22C can have one, two, or three convex surfaces, with the remainder being planar or concave.
Referring now to fig. 4D, tetrahedrally-shaped abrasive particle 22D has four faces (42D, 44D, 46D, and 48D) joined by six sides (50D, 52D, 54D, 56D, 58D, and 60D) terminating at four tips (62D, 64D, 66D, and 68D). Although particles with tetrahedral symmetry are depicted in fig. 4D, it will be appreciated that other shapes are also permissible. For example, tetrahedrally-shaped abrasive particles 22D can have one, two, or three convex surfaces, with the remaining surfaces being planar.
There may be deviations from the depiction in fig. 4A-4D. An example of such a tetrahedrally-shaped abrasive particle 22E is shown in FIG. 4E, which illustrates a tetrahedrally-shaped abrasive particle 22E having four faces (40E, 44E, 46E, and 48E) joined by six sides (50E, 52E, 54E, 56E, 58E, and 60E) ending in four tips (62E, 64E, 66E, and 68E). Each face contacts the other three faces at a respective common edge. Each of the faces, sides and top have an irregular shape.
Any of the shaped abrasive particles 22 may include any number of shape features. The shape characteristics may help improve the cutting performance of any shaped abrasive particle 22. Examples of suitable shape features include openings, concave surfaces, convex surfaces, grooves, ridges, fracture surfaces, low roundness coefficients, or perimeters comprising one or more corner points with sharp tips. The single shaped abrasive particle may include any one or more of these features.
The shaped abrasive particles 22 may be oriented on the individual fibers 20 in any suitable manner. The shaped abrasive particles 22 may be oriented by application of a magnetic field. Alternatively, the shaped abrasive particles 22 may be oriented by placing them in a mold or screen in which the individual cavities are arranged in a predetermined pattern. The amount of shaped abrasive particles 22 that are oriented can be controlled. For example, at least a portion of the total number of shaped abrasive particles 22 may be oriented such that the tips are oriented in a direction substantially parallel to a line passing through first major surface 14 and second major surface 16. A single tip may be perfectly aligned with a line passing through the first and second major surfaces 14, 16, but the tip may also be offset from perfect alignment by within about 1 to about 20 degrees, within about 1 to about 15 degrees, less than, equal to, or greater than about 1, 2 degrees, 3 degrees, 4 degrees, 5 degrees, 6 degrees, 7 degrees, 8 degrees, 9 degrees, 10 degrees, 11 degrees, 12 degrees, 13 degrees, 14 degrees, 15 degrees, 16 degrees, 17 degrees, 18 degrees, 19 degrees, or about 20 degrees.
The total amount of shaped abrasive particles 22 having respective tips oriented in a direction substantially parallel to a line passing through first and second major surfaces 14, 16 may be in the range of about 5% to about 70%, about 5% to about 15%, less than, equal to, or greater than about 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 25%, 30%, 35%, 40%, 45%, 50%, 55%, 60%, 65%, or about 70% by weight of the plurality of shaped abrasive particles.
The shaped abrasive particles 22 may also be oriented on the individual fibers 20 such that at least a portion of the total number of shaped abrasive particles 22 includes a face oriented in a direction substantially perpendicular to a line passing through the first major surface 14 and the second major surface 16. Additionally, in some embodiments, the shaped abrasive particles 22 are disposed in the interstices between two or more individual fibers 20 and held in place by the resin in contact with one or more fibers 20. A single face may be perfectly perpendicular to a line passing through the first and second major surfaces 14, 16, but the face may also deviate from perfect alignment by within about 1 degree to about 20 degrees, within about 1 degree to about 15 degrees, less than, equal to, or greater than about 1 degree, 2 degrees, 3 degrees, 4 degrees, 5 degrees, 6 degrees, 7 degrees, 8 degrees, 9 degrees, 10 degrees, 11 degrees, 12 degrees, 13 degrees, 14 degrees, 15 degrees, 16 degrees, 17 degrees, 18 degrees, 19 degrees, or about 20 degrees.
The total amount of shaped abrasive particles 22 having respective faces oriented in a direction substantially perpendicular to a line passing through first major surface 14 and second major surface 16 may be in the range of about 5% to about 70%, about 5% to about 15%, less than, equal to, or greater than about 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 25%, 30%, 35%, 40%, 45%, 50%, 55%, 60%, 65%, or about 70% by weight of the plurality of shaped abrasive particles.
The shaped abrasive particles 22 may be distributed throughout the thickness of the abrasive article 10. The thickness of the abrasive article 10 is defined from the first major surface 14 to the second major surface 16. In embodiments in which either or both of the first and second major surfaces 14, 16 have non-planar or irregular surfaces, the thickness is measured by the maximum distance between the first and second major surfaces 14, 16. The shaped abrasive particles 22 not located at the first major surface 14 can be located anywhere in a range from about 5% to about 100%, about 20% to about 80%, or less than, equal to, or greater than about 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 25%, 30%, 35%, 40%, 45%, 50%, 55%, 60%, 65%, 70%, 75%, 80%, 85%, 90%, 95%, or about 100% of the thickness of the web 102. The portion of the shaped abrasive particle 22 not at the first major surface 14 may be in the range of about 10 wt.% to about 100 wt.%, about 50 wt.% to about 100 wt.% of the shaped abrasive particle 22, or less than, equal to, or greater than about 10 wt.%, 15 wt.%, 20 wt.%, 25 wt.%, 30 wt.%, 35 wt.%, 40 wt.%, 45 wt.%, 50 wt.%, 55 wt.%, 60 wt.%, 65 wt.%, 70 wt.%, 75 wt.%, 80 wt.%, 85 wt.%, 90 wt.%, 95 wt.%, or about 100 wt.%.
The shaped abrasive particles 22 may be uniformly or non-uniformly distributed throughout the thickness of the abrasive article 10. Surprisingly, the inclusion of the thermally activated water-forming inorganic component can help provide control over the location of the shaped abrasive particles 22 in the nonwoven web 12 and can help significantly deagglomerate the shaped abrasive particles 22 to help orient the particles. In embodiments of the abrasive article 10 in which the shaped abrasive particles 22 are unevenly distributed, the shaped abrasive particles 22 may be distributed in multiple regions. Each region may comprise a percentage of the thickness of the abrasive article 10. For example, each region can comprise from 1% to about 50%, from about 10% to about 33%, less than, equal to, or greater than about 1%, 2%, 3%, 4%, 5%, 6%, 7%, 8%, 9%, 10%, 11%, 12%, 13%, 14%, 15%, 16%, 17%, 18%, 19%, 20%, 21%, 22%, 23%, 24%, 25%, 26%, 27%, 28%, 29%, 30%, 31%, 32%, 33%, 34%, 35%, 36%, 37%, 38%, 39%, 40%, 41%, 42%, 43%, 44%, 45%, 46%, 47%, 48%, 49%, or about 50% of the total thickness of the abrasive article 10. Each region may contain any suitable weight percent of shaped abrasive particles 22. For example, each zone may comprise from about 5 wt% to about 80 wt%, from about 33 wt% to about 50 wt%, less than, equal to, or greater than about 5 wt%, 6 wt%, 7 wt%, 8 wt%, 9 wt%, 10 wt%, 11 wt%, 12 wt%, 13 wt%, 14 wt%, 15 wt%, 16 wt%, 17 wt%, 18 wt%, 19 wt%, 20 wt%, 21 wt%, 22 wt%, 23 wt%, 24 wt%, 25 wt%, 26 wt%, 27 wt%, 28 wt%, 29 wt%, 30 wt%, 31 wt%, 32 wt%, 33 wt%, 34 wt%, 35 wt%, 36 wt%, 37 wt%, 38 wt%, 39 wt%, 40 wt%, 41 wt%, 42 wt%, 43 wt%, 44 wt%, 45 wt%, 46 wt%, 47 wt%, 48 wt%, 49 wt%, 50 wt%, 51 wt%, 52 wt%, 53 wt%, 54 wt%, 55 wt%, 56 wt%, 57 wt%, 58 wt%, 59 wt%, 60 wt%, 61 wt%, 62 wt%, 63 wt%, 64 wt%, 65 wt%, 66 wt%, 67 wt%, 68 wt%, 69 wt%, 70 wt%, 71 wt%, 72 wt%, 73 wt%, 74 wt%, 75 wt%, 76 wt%, 80 wt% of the shaped abrasive particles, or 80 wt%. Each region may contain the same weight percent of shaped abrasive particles 22. Alternatively, each region may independently have a different weight percent of the shaped abrasive particles 22. The abrasive article 10 can include any number of regions. For example, the abrasive article 10 can include 2, 3, 4, or 5 zones.
The abrasive article 10 may also include conventional (e.g., crushed) abrasive particles. Examples of useful abrasive particles include any abrasive particles known in the abrasive arts. Examples of useful abrasive particles include fused alumina-based materials such as alumina, ceramic alumina (which may include one or more metal oxide modifiers and/or crystallization promoters or nucleating agents), and heat treated alumina, silicon carbide, co-fused alumina-zirconia, diamond, ceria, titanium diboride, cubic boron nitride, boron carbide, garnet, flint, emery, sol-gel prepared abrasive particles, and mixtures thereof.
Conventional abrasive particles can, for example, have diameters in the range of about 10 μm to about 2000 μm, about 20 μm to about 1300 μm, about 50 μm to about 1000 μm, less than, equal to, or greater than about 10 μm, 20 μm, 30 μm, 40 μm, 50 μm, 100 μm, 150 μm, 200 μm, 250 μm, 300 μm, 350 μm, 400 μm, 450 μm, 500 μm, 550 μm, 600 μm, 650 μm, 700 μm, 750 μm, 800 μm, 850 μm, 900 μm, 950 μm, 1000 μm, 1050 μm, 1100 μm, 1150 μm, 1200 μm, 1250 μm, 1300 μm, 1350 μm, 1400 μm, 1450 μm, 1500 μm, 1550 μm, 1900 μm, 1750 μm, 1800 μm, 1850 μm, 1650 μm, 1950 μm, or 2000 μm. For example, conventional abrasive particles may have an abrasives industry specified nominal grade. Such abrasive industry accepted grade standards include those known as the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) standard, the european union of abrasive product manufacturers (FEPA) standard, and the japanese industry standard (HS). Exemplary ANSI class names (e.g., specified nominal classes) include: ANSI 12 (1842 μm), ANSI 16 (1320 μm), ANSI 20 (905 μm), ANSI 24 (728 μm), ANSI 36 (530 μm), ANSI 40 (420 μm), ANSI 50 (351 μm), ANSI 60 (264 μm), ANSI 80 (195 μm), ANSI 100 (141 μm), ANSI 120 (116 μm), ANSI 150 (93 μm), ANSI 180 (78 μm), ANSI 220 (66 μm), ANSI 240 (53 μm), ANSI 280 (44 μm), ANSI 320 (46 μm), ANSI 360 (30 μm), ANSI 400 (24 μm) and ANSI 600 (16 μm). Exemplary FEPA grade designations include P12 (1746 μm), P16 (1320 μm), P20 (984 μm), P24 (728 μm), P30 (630 μm), P36 (530 μm), P40 (420 μm), P50 (326 μm), P60 (264 μm), P80 (195 μm), P100 (156 μm), P120 (127 μm), P150 (97 μm), P180 (78 μm), P220 (66 μm), P240 (60 μm), P280 (53 μm), P320 (46 μm), P360 (41 μm), P400 (36 μm), P500 (30 μm), P600 (26 μm), and P800 (22 μm). The approximate average granularity for each class is listed in brackets after each class name.
The shaped abrasive particles 22 or crushed abrasive particles may comprise any suitable material or mixture of materials. For example, the shaped abrasive particles 22 may comprise a material selected from the group consisting of alpha alumina, fused alumina, heat treated alumina, ceramic alumina, sintered alumina, silicon carbide, titanium diboride, boron carbide, tungsten carbide, titanium carbide, diamond, cubic boron nitride, garnet, fused alumina-zirconia, sol-gel prepared abrasive particles, ceria, zirconia, titania, and combinations thereof. In some embodiments, the shaped abrasive particles 22 and the crushed abrasive particles may comprise the same material. In further embodiments, the shaped abrasive particles 22 and the crushed abrasive particles may comprise different materials.
Filler particles may also be included in the abrasive article 10. Examples of useful fillers include metal carbonates (such as calcium carbonate, calcium magnesium carbonate, sodium carbonate, magnesium carbonate), silica (such as quartz, glass beads, glass bubbles, and glass fibers), silicates (such as talc, clay, montmorillonite, feldspar, mica, calcium silicate, calcium metasilicate, sodium aluminosilicate, sodium silicate), metal sulfates (such as calcium sulfate, barium sulfate, sodium aluminum sulfate, aluminum sulfate), gypsum, vermiculite, sugar, wood flour, aluminum hydrate compounds, carbon black, metal oxides (such as calcium oxide, aluminum oxide, tin oxide, titanium dioxide), metal sulfites (such as calcium sulfite), thermoplastic particles (such as polycarbonate, polyetherimide, polyester, polyethylene, poly (vinyl chloride), polysulfone, polystyrene, acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene block copolymers, polypropylene, acetal polymers, polyurethane, nylon particles), thermoset particles (such as phenolic bubbles, phenolic beads, polyurethane foam particles, and the like). The filler may also be a salt, such as a halide salt. Examples of halide salts include sodium chloride, potassium cryolite, sodium cryolite, ammonium cryolite, potassium tetrafluoroborate, sodium tetrafluoroborate, silicon fluoride, potassium chloride, magnesium chloride. Examples of the metal filler include tin, lead, bismuth, cobalt, antimony, cadmium, iron, and titanium. Other miscellaneous fillers include sulfur, organic sulfur compounds, graphite, lithium stearate, and metal sulfides. In some embodiments, individual shaped abrasive particles 22 or individual crushed abrasive particles may be at least partially coated with an amorphous, ceramic, or organic coating. Examples of suitable components of the coating include silane, glass, iron oxide, aluminum oxide, or combinations thereof. Coatings such as these may aid in processability and adhesion of the particles to the binder resin.
The abrasive article 10 may also include an inorganic component that is thermally activated to form water. The inorganic components that thermally activate to form water may be dispersed in nonwoven web 12. The inorganic component that is thermally activated to form water can be in a range of from about 1 wt.% to about 20 wt.%, from about 3 wt.% to about 10 wt.% of the abrasive article 10, less than, equal to, or greater than about 1 wt.%, 1.5 wt.%, 2 wt.%, 2.5 wt.%, 3 wt.%, 3.5 wt.%, 4 wt.%, 4.5 wt.%, 5 wt.%, 5.5 wt.%, 6 wt.%, 6.5 wt.%, 7 wt.%, 7.5 wt.%, 8 wt.%, 8.5 wt.%, 9 wt.%, 9.5 wt.%, 10 wt.%, 10.5 wt.%, 11 wt.%, 11.5 wt.%, 12 wt.%, 12.5 wt.%, 13 wt.%, 13.5 wt.%, 14 wt.%, 14.5 wt.%, 15 wt.%, 15.5 wt.%, 16 wt.%, 16.5 wt.%, 17 wt.%, 17.5 wt.%, 18 wt.%, 18.5 wt.%, 19 wt.%, 19.5 wt.%, or about 20 wt.%. The inorganic components that are endothermic activated to form water may be characterized by their ability to dehydrate (e.g., release water) when exposed to high temperatures. The release of water may be used to cool the abrasive article 10 during use.
The elevated temperature may correspond to an activation temperature of an inorganic component that is thermally activated to form water. The activation temperature may be about 300 ℃ or less, about 250 ℃ or less, about 200 ℃ or less, about 100 ℃ or less, less than, equal to, or greater than about 50 ℃, 60 ℃, 70 ℃, 80 ℃, 90 ℃, 100 ℃, 110 ℃, 120 ℃, 130 ℃, 140 ℃, 150 ℃, 160 ℃, 170 ℃, 180 ℃, 190 ℃, or about 200 ℃ in the range of about 200 ℃ to about 300 ℃, about 200 ℃ to about 250 ℃.
The inorganic component that is thermally activated to form water may comprise any suitable material or mixture of materials. For example, the inorganic component that is thermally activated to form water may include a metal hydroxide. The metal of the metal hydroxide may include aluminum, beryllium, cobalt, copper, curium, gold, iron, mercury, nickel, tin, gallium, lead, thallium, zinc, zirconium, calcium, potassium, magnesium, lithium, sodium, alloys thereof, or mixtures thereof. Specific examples of the metal hydroxide include lithium hydroxide, sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, aluminum hydroxide, beryllium hydroxide, cobalt (II) hydroxide, copper (II) hydroxide, cadmium hydroxide, gold (III) hydroxide, iron (II) hydroxide, mercury (II) hydroxide, nickel (II) hydroxide, tin (II) hydroxide, zinc hydroxide, zirconium (IV) hydroxide, or a mixture thereof. Examples of specific aluminum hydroxides are hydrated aluminum compounds.
Any of the metal hydroxides may be surface modified. For example, any metal hydroxide may be surface modified with an amine, alkyl, epoxy, vinyl, phenyl, or mixtures thereof. Any of these groups may be grafted to the metal hydroxide. These groups may range from about 1 wt% to about 20 wt%, about 5 wt% to about 10 wt% of the metal hydroxide, less than, equal to, or greater than about 1 wt%, 2 wt%, 3 wt%, 4 wt%, 5 wt%, 6 wt%, 7 wt%, 8 wt%, 9 wt%, 10 wt%, 11 wt%, 12 wt%, 13 wt%, 14 wt%, 15 wt%, 16 wt%, 17 wt%, 18 wt%, 19 wt%, or about 20 wt% of the metal hydroxide.
Surprisingly, it was found that inclusion of a thermally activated water-forming inorganic component such as an aluminum hydrate compound having shaped abrasive particles 22 improved the grinding performance of the abrasive article. For example, abrasive articles comprising aluminum hydrate compounds have been found to increase the grinding performance of abrasive articles for grinding carbon steel. In addition, it has surprisingly been found that abrasive articles comprising an aluminum hydrate have a higher percentage of shaped abrasive particles 22 having tips oriented in a vertical position (e.g., substantially parallel to a line extending through the first and second major surfaces 12, 14) than corresponding abrasive articles that differ only in that they do not contain an aluminum hydrate. In addition, it has surprisingly been found that an abrasive article comprising an aluminum hydrate compound has a deeper percentage of shaped abrasive particles 22 that are capable of penetrating the abrasive article 10 to the thickness of the abrasive article 10 than a corresponding abrasive article that differs only in that it does not contain an aluminum hydrate. In addition, it has surprisingly been found that abrasive articles comprising aluminum hydrate compounds have shaped abrasive particles uniformly distributed in the abrasive article 10. It has also been surprisingly found that the inclusion of an aluminum hydrate compound alone or an aluminum hydrate compound with crushed abrasive particles does not produce an abrasive article that performs as well as those comprising shaped abrasive particles 22 and an aluminum hydrate compound.
In some embodiments, the abrasive article 10 can include a flexible backing in contact with the first major surface 12 or the second major surface 14. Flexible backings may be used to impart strength to the abrasive article 10. A flexible backing may also be used to attach a logo or other visual medium to the abrasive article 10. Examples of suitable flexible backings include polymeric films, metal foils, woven fabrics, knitted fabrics, papers, vulcanized fibers, staple fibers, continuous fibers, nonwovens, foams, screens, laminates, and combinations thereof.
Abrasive article 10 may be prepared by forming a nonwoven web and applying a binder to fibrous component 18. A primer layer may be applied to the nonwoven web 12. Nonwoven web 12 may be rolled to substantially place at least some of the flat fibers 20 protruding from web 12. Abrasive particles 22 may be applied to the make layer to form nonwoven abrasive web 12. The make layer is cured and an optional size layer may be applied over the make layer, which is then cured to form the abrasive article 10.
In some embodiments, a scrim or reinforcing layer may be attached to nonwoven abrasive web 12. The scrim may comprise any suitable material, such as a polymeric film, a metal foil, a woven fabric, a knitted fabric, paper, vulcanized fiber, a nonwoven, a foam, a screen, a laminate, or a combination thereof. The scrim may be attached to the nonwoven web 12 by needle stitching, needle punching, or by adhesive.
Nonwoven web 12 may be manufactured, for example, by conventional air-laid, carding, stitch-bonding, spunbond, wet-laid, and/or meltblown processes. The airlaid nonwoven web may be prepared using a web forming machine such as that commercially available under the trade designation "RANDO WEBBER" from lando machine company (Rando Machine Company of Macedon, n.y.) of macton, new york. The web may also be perforated. In some examples, perforating the web may include needling the web.
The nonwoven abrasive web is prepared by adhering abrasive particles 22 to nonwoven web 12 with a curable second binder. The binder that may be used to adhere the abrasive particles 22 to the nonwoven web 12 may be selected according to the end product requirements. Examples of binders include polyurethane-containing resins, phenolic resins, acrylate resins, and phenolic resinsThose of resins, urea-formaldehyde, latex, epoxy novolac, blends of epoxy resins and acrylate resins. The amount of coating of the abrasive particles 22 may depend, for example, on the particular binder used, the method used to apply the abrasive particles 22 (e.g., spraying), and the size of the abrasive particles 22. For example, the abrasive particles 22 on the nonwoven web 12 may be coated in an amount of 100 grams per square meter (g/m) 2 ) To about 5000g/m 2 About 1500g/m 2 To about 5000g/m 2 About 2000g/m 2 To about 4000g/m 2 Less than, equal to, or greater than about 100g/m 2 、200g/m 2 、300g/m 2 、400g/m 2 、500g/m 2 、600g/m 2 、700g/m 2 、800g/m 2 、900g/m 2 、1000g/m 2 、1100g/m 2 、1200g/m 2 、1300g/m 2 、1400g/m 2 、1500g/m 2 、1600g/m 2 、1700g/m 2 、1800g/m 2 、1900g/m 2 、2000g/m 2 、2100g/m 2 、2200g/m 2 、2300g/m 2 、2400g/m 2 、2500g/m 2 、2600g/m 2 、2700g/m 2 、2800g/m 2 、2900g/m 2 、3000g/m 2 、3100g/m 2 、3200g/m 2 、3300g/m 2 、3400g/m 2 、3500g/m 2 、3600g/m 2 、3700g/m 2 、3800g/m 2 、3900g/m 2 、4000g/m 2 、4100g/m 2 、4200g/m 2 、4300g/m 2 、4400g/m 2 、4500g/m 2 、4600g/m 2 、4700g/m 2 、4800g/m 2 、4900g/m 2 Or 5000g/m 2 . Abrasive particles 12 may be coated on either or both of the first and second major surfaces of nonwoven web 12. The abrasive particles 22 may be coated to achieve a substantially uniform distribution of the shaped abrasive particles 22 throughout the web 12.
Additionally, components such as inorganic components that thermally activate to form water may be in contact with nonwoven web 12. In some embodiments, certain components of the abrasive article 10 may be included in a slurry. For example, the slurry may comprise shaped abrasive particles 22, a thermally activated water-forming inorganic component, make and size layer materials, crushed abrasive particles, or any other component or sub-combination of components. The slurry may be stored and applied directly to nonwoven web 12.
The abrasive article 10 may be used to remove material from a surface of a workpiece. This may be accomplished by contacting the surface of the abrasive article 10 with a workpiece. The workpiece may be contacted, for example, at a force in the range of about 1 newton to about 40 newtons. The abrasive article 10 may then be moved (e.g., rotated) relative to the workpiece while maintaining pressure between the abrasive article 10 and the surface of the workpiece. While the abrasive article 10 can have many suitable shapes, an example of a suitable shape is a disc. The abrasive article 10 may be adapted to remove many different types of materials. Examples of such materials include carbon steel, stainless steel, aluminum, or polymeric materials such as polymeric surface coatings on workpieces.
Surprisingly, it was found that a greater amount of work piece was removed than a corresponding abrasive article that was run at the same speed, differing only in the inorganic component that had less or no heat activated water forming. It has also surprisingly been found that abrasive articles comprising an inorganic component that is thermally activated to form water are particularly effective in grinding carbon steel.

Test method
PSG orientation
PSG particle orientation maps of examples 15, 16 and 17 were generated. The orientation map uses the directional cosine of the short/minimum axis (PSG width) and the long/maximum axis (PSG length). The Y component of the minimum axis and the Z component of the maximum axis of each PSG are plotted. Each point in the graph is a separate PSG object (i.e., a single PSG, a PSG cluster, a psg+crush cluster), and n= # is shown for each graph, where N is the number of PSG objects measured in the scanned dataset. The coordinates (0, 0) on the figure refer to a PSG object having a completely vertical orientation (preferred orientation). Coordinates (90, 90) or (-90 ) refer to PSG objects having a flat orientation (not preferred orientation). Values on the maximum Z-axis between 0 and 90 indicate the angle of the directional cosine with respect to the vector perpendicular to the sample scrim/plane. From the graph, the vertical position (PSG at <15 ° angle to the vertical sample plane) of the particles can be determined, and the% of grains in the flat orientation can be determined.
PSG permeation
The penetration depth of the PSG in the nonwoven web was determined using X-ray microtomography analysis. To perform this process, strips of material were cut from each of the abrasive articles of examples 15, 16 and 17. Data was collected using a Skyscan 2211 (Bruker microCT, kontich, belgium) X-ray microtomography scanner of Belgium Kong Dihe scanning each example at a resolution of 6.00um using an X-ray source setup of 70kV and 110uA, where the energy distribution of the incident beam was modified by applying a 0.5mm aluminum filter.
The resulting reconstructed image is post-processed to separate the location of the shaped grains within the scanned sample. The grayscale threshold allows the abrasive grains to separate from the higher and lower density materials in the nonwoven construction. The initial processing of the reconstructed dataset was performed using the computer program CT Analyzer (1.16.4 version, bruckmicroct company, belgium Kong Dihe).
Subsequent size filtering of the threshold image removes small non-shaped abrasive grains from the image. The thresholded and size filtered image is analyzed to determine the size, shape and location (X, Y and centroid coordinates at Z) of the shaped abrasive grains within the dataset. The thresholded and size filtered image is then saved as a separate dataset for subsequent inspection of the shaped grain orientation. The reconstructed data was further processed using computer software Avizo (9.5.0 edition, zerumex feier company (ThermoFisher Scientific, hillsboro, oregon) in hilbert, oregon) for shaped grain analysis.
The physical location of each shaped abrasive grain in the dataset is identified and the minor and major axes of each shaped grain are evaluated. The directional cosine perpendicular to the minor and major axes is calculated and tabulated.
The thresholded image is re-sliced along the XZ plane to obtain depth profile images of the dataset using a CT Analyzer. The abrasive grain area of each depth profile image was determined using Avizo.
Results
The results of the orientation analysis are shown in table 8.
