[Industrial Application Field] The present invention relates to an abrasive material suitable for, for example, mirror polishing of synthetic resin. [Prior art] Conventionally, synthetic resins such as (1) CR-39 diethylene glycol bisallyl carbonate (2) PMMA polymethacrylic resin (3) polycarbonate resin (4) polystyrene resin (5) polyadamantyl methacrylic resin, etc. Aluminum oxide Al 2 O 3 as a mirror polishing material
Polyplastic, a product made by Fujimi Abrasives Industry Co., Ltd., which is a mixture of a special liquid with a pH of 3 to 3.5, is commonly used, but there is no other product that surpasses this Polyplastic, and the industry has limited polishing time and finished surface. There was a desire to develop something with even greater accuracy. Recently, there has been an increasing demand for plastic lenses to replace glass lenses, but polishing of the lenses sometimes requires higher surface accuracy. However, when polishing plastic lenses with conventional abrasive materials, a surface accuracy of only about 100 Å can be obtained, and there are problems in that it is difficult to polish the center of the lens, which is prone to scratches, and leaves the lens in a cloudy state. Ta. [Problems to be Solved by the Invention] This invention was made to solve the above-mentioned problems, and it is possible to prevent the occurrence of scratches in the center and to ensure both surface accuracy and surface roughness of about 50 Å. Moreover, it is an object of the present invention to provide an abrasive material that can shorten the polishing time. [Means for Solving the Problems] The abrasive of the present invention contains powdered zirconium oxide with an amount of 0.5% based on the weight of the zirconium oxide.
~15% by weight of niobium compounds, NbO, NbO2 or
It is characterized in that any one type of Nb2O5 or a mixture thereof is mixed in powder form and suspended in a cooling liquid such as an activator. [Function] When the abrasive is configured in this way, the niobium compound is heated through a cooling liquid such as a surfactant,
The cooling liquid mixes well with zirconium oxide, and furthermore, the cooling liquid cools the abrasive and the object to be polished, thereby preventing agglomeration of the abrasive. Furthermore, the mixed niobium compound imparts to the zirconium oxide a large polishing force and an effect of melting the surface of the object to be polished, making it possible to shorten the polishing time and improve the finished surface accuracy. [Example] An example of the present invention will be described below. The abrasive material of the example uses zirconium oxide powder called zirconia manufactured by NGK Insulators Co., Ltd. as the main material of the abrasive material, and this main material contains:
Powder any one of the iodine compounds of NbO, NbO2 or Nb2O5, or a mixture thereof, and mix it in an amount of 1 to 10% by weight based on the weight of zirconium oxide.
A polishing liquid was prepared by suspending the polishing liquid in a solvent adjusted to No. 5 and a surfactant that also served as a cooling liquid. The surfactant used was a cationic surfactant.
5% dissolved. Using the abrasive material of this example, a rotary polisher manufactured by Fujimi Kikai Kogyo Co., Ltd. was used as the polisher.
Polishing experiments were conducted on various synthetic resins. In order to compare the polishing results of this example, a polishing experiment using a conventional abrasive material was also conducted at the same time using the same polishing machine. As a result, in terms of grinding time and product yield, only the zirconia mentioned above was used, and 50φ BK7
It took an average of 40 minutes to polish a flat lens, and the product yield from polishing was around 87%, but when NbO powder was mixed with the zirconia in this example, the percentage by weight of the zirconia was With a mixture of 1%, it took about 36 minutes to polish the same flat lens, and with a mixture ratio of a few percent or more to 10%, the time could be reduced to about 31 to 36 minutes. In addition, the product yield is approximately 92% at a mixing rate of 1% by weight, and 92-97% at a mixing rate of several percent or more and 10%.
improved to %. In this experiment, the best polishing time and yield data were obtained when the mixing ratio was 3 to 5%. In the same zirconia as in this experiment, NbO2, Nb2O5
Similar results were obtained when mixing. In addition, it took 18 to 20 minutes to polish CR-39 65φ eyeglass lenses using Polyplastic (trade name), a product of Fujimi Abrasives Industry Co., Ltd. In comparison, zirconia, which was thought to have poor polishing ability on its own, has Nb2O5.
If the same lens is polished with a mixture of
~15 minutes at a mixing rate of ~2% by weight, a few% or more 10%
It was found that the mixing rate could be reduced to about 14 minutes. Similar results were obtained when NbO.NbO2 was mixed with the same zirconia as in this experiment. Furthermore, it takes an average of 18 minutes to polish a 50φ PMMA molded lens made from Acrylic Light made by Mitsubishi Rayon Co., Ltd. using polyplastic, but it is the same when polishing a lens made of zirconia mixed with Nb2O5. When polishing a lens, it takes about 16 minutes at a mixing rate of 1 to 2% by weight, and it takes about 16 minutes at a mixing rate of a few percent or more to 10%.
It turned out that the time could be shortened to about 14 minutes. Regarding this experiment, the same zirconia,
Similar results were obtained when NbO and NbO2 were mixed. Furthermore, these examples include NbO, NbO2,
We also experimented with each mixture of Nb2O5 and obtained similar results. In the experiment of the above-mentioned example, a comprehensive evaluation of polishing time and yield was performed when the mixing weight percentage of the niobium compound to the zirconia was in the range of 1 to 10%, and the results were as shown in the table below. In the same table, ◎ marks indicate particularly good cases, and ○ marks indicate good cases.

[Table] In this experiment, the mixing ratio was 0.5% by weight.
If it is less than 20%, the effect of the mixture will not be fully exhibited, and on the other hand, the upper limit will vary somewhat depending on the above-mentioned niobium compound mixed, but in all cases, if it exceeds 20%, a decrease in surface precision due to grinding will be observed. As a result, it is thought that the effect can be expected when each niobium compound or a mixture of these compounds is mixed with aluminum oxide up to 15% by weight. Fujimi Abrasives Industry, which is currently widely used
Polypla Co., Ltd.'s polishing power decreases during the polishing process, so it had to be thrown away after each lens was polished, but the polishing material of this invention can be adjusted once and By replenishing increments, it is possible to maintain the polishing power, and the polishing time can be shortened by 15 to 20% with a surface accuracy of about 25 Å. The present invention can be sufficiently effective in polishing various synthetic resins, as well as eyeglass lenses and contact lenses. It should be noted that the present invention is not limited to the above-mentioned embodiments, and can be implemented with modifications without changing the gist. In the above embodiment, an abrasive material in the form of free abrasive grains has been described, but a grindstone-like abrasive material can also be formed by solidifying the abrasive material having the same composition with a bonding material. Further, in the above embodiments, a surfactant was used as the cooling liquid, but water (pure water) can be used as long as the abrasive is well dispersed. The above example is an example in which powder of any one of niobium compounds NbO, NbO2, Nb2O5 or a mixture thereof is mixed with zirconium oxide powder. , LiNbO3, Nb3Sn, Nb3Si,
Niobium compounds such as Nb3Ge and Nb3Al can also be expected to have similar effects considering the properties of these compounds. [Effects of the Invention] According to the present invention, it is possible to provide an abrasive material with strong abrasive power and a high product yield.
