- Animal glue and thermo-setting resins such as the phenol-aldehyde resins which are capable of withstanding both the elevated temperatures developed in the disc during dry grinding, and also the solvent action of water as employedin wet grinding, have been used as the abrasive bonding coat and as the adhesive securing the cloth and vulcanized fiber in the manufacture of discs having a composite backing.

- a disc that is too convex (a chord height of more than 1 inch in a 9-inch disc) is just as unsatisfactory as a disc having its abrasive side concave.
- the web of abrasive-coated material is thus customarily dried to the desired degree before the discs are stamped or cut therefrom.
- Vulcanized fiber is a relatively hygroscopic material; and at 32% relative humidity will contain about 5% moisture. at relative humidity about 8.5% moisture and at relative humidity 32% moisture.
- the backing swells and expands under fairly long exposure athigh humidity conditions.
- the disc cannot expand evenly on both surfaces since the resin-coated surface does not absorb moisture at the rate that it is absorbed by the vulcanized fiber and the resin coat thus holds the surface of the fiber on which it is coated against stretching.

This invention relates to improvements in abrasive articles and to a method of manufacturing the same, and especially to improvements in abrasive-coated discs for detachable and renewable application to the grinding heads of rotary grinding machines. It is particularly concerned with coated abrasive discs in which the backing comprises vulcanized fiber or other moistureabsorbent material, for example of the type disclosed in the R. P. Carlton Patent No. 1,686,898 of October 9, 1928.
In use such discs are mounted through a central aperture therein on a rotatable spindle having a supporting head for the non-abrasive side of the disc, and are rotated very rapidly as high as 5000 revolutions per minute. The discs are usually pressed against the workpiece at an angle in such a manner that the abrading is done by a band about 2 inches wide extending inwardly from the periphery of a disc 9 inches in diameter. Certain types of use require the disc to bend in a rather sharp arc while being pressed against the work and being rotated at high speeds. Under such usage the discs may break, and broken segments flying from the discs at high speed may create a real hazard to the person operating the grinding machine. Thus a tough, elastic disc is required and a brittle disc backing, although having the required mechanical strength is unsuitable.
Discs of the coated abrasive type have hereto fore commonly been made with a vulcanized fiber backing alone or with a composite backing of a layer of cloth bonded to a layer of vulcanized fiber with abrasive grains bonded to the exposed cloth surface. Animal glue and thermo-setting resins, such as the phenol-aldehyde resins which are capable of withstanding both the elevated temperatures developed in the disc during dry grinding, and also the solvent action of water as employedin wet grinding, have been used as the abrasive bonding coat and as the adhesive securing the cloth and vulcanized fiber in the manufacture of discs having a composite backing.
In order that the disc may fit snugly against the supporting pad of the grinding machine it is essential that the disc be flat or that the abrasive side of the disc be slightly convex. If the abrasive side of the disc is concave when applied to the grinding machine, the slight depression or bending of the central portion of the disc by the retaining clamp bolt (as illustrated in the previously mentioned Carlton patent) when the same is radial cracking, which accelerates subsequent failure of the disc when in use. A concave disc is also susceptible to catching on the workpiece and to tearing oil of fragments of the disc, and particularly the fluttering edges of a concave disc tend to gouge the work.
It is customary in the art to obtain a flat disc or a slightly convex disc (a disc 9 inches in diameter should have a chord height of approximately /2 inch) by controlling the degree of cure of the adhesive securing the abrasive particles to the vulcanized fiber and the degree of drying of the vulcanized fiber backing prior to stamping the discs from the coated web. A disc that is too convex (a chord height of more than 1 inch in a 9-inch disc) is just as unsatisfactory as a disc having its abrasive side concave. The web of abrasive-coated material is thus customarily dried to the desired degree before the discs are stamped or cut therefrom.
The art has found by experience that ordinary vulcanized fiber discs having grit bonds of heathardened synthetic resins do not long retain their initial flat or slightly convex shape under fairly humid atmospheric conditions. Vulcanized fiber is a relatively hygroscopic material; and at 32% relative humidity will contain about 5% moisture. at relative humidity about 8.5% moisture and at relative humidity 32% moisture. Thus the backing swells and expands under fairly long exposure athigh humidity conditions. The disc cannot expand evenly on both surfaces since the resin-coated surface does not absorb moisture at the rate that it is absorbed by the vulcanized fiber and the resin coat thus holds the surface of the fiber on which it is coated against stretching. Thus the disc tends to curl and the abrasivecoated surface becomes concave.
It is, therefore, an object of this invention to provide an abrasive disc having a re-enforced vul canized fiber backing that is of sufficient mechanical strength to resist the force tending to curl the disc when the vulcanized fiber absorbs moisture. A further object of the invention is to provide such a disc having the required mechanical strength that is not brittle.
Various expedients have been proposed to overcome the disc-curling problem. It has been suggested by our contemporaries that a disc, dried to the desired degree of curvature, be covered on the uncoated vulcanized fiber surface with a sheet of thin metal foil or other material that is impervious to moisture. While this type of lamtightened in place is ordinarily sufllcient to cause so inated disc may retain its initial shape for short periods of exposure to high humidity conditions of up to approximately five days, thereafter the moisture penetrating into the vulcanized fiber through the edges of the disc and through cracks in the abrasive-coated surface is sufiicient to curl the disc and render it concave on the abrasivecoated surface. Additionally blisters form on the surface of the water-impervious sheet due to the fact that the solvent vapors, from the adhesive securing the moisture-impervious sheet to the vulcanized fiber, cannot escape through the moisture-impervious layer.
We have found that the foregoing objections may be overcome and that an abrasive disc may be produced that retains substantially its initial shape over long periods of exposure to high humidity by applying a coating of abrasive grains to a web of vulcanized fiber in the manner known to the art, curing the adhesive grit binder and drying the coated web to the desired degree to obtain a fiat or slightly convex shape; discs are then cut from the web and a disc of foraminated non-hygroscopic material of the size and shape of the vulcanized fiber disc is adhesively secured to the uncoated surface of the disc. The nonhygroscopic material may comprise perforated aluminum, copper or tin foil. The perforations are of pin-point size to permit the solvent vapors escape and to let moisture reach the vulcanized fiber backing, and may be spaced of an inch apart. The number and size of the perforations may be varied, but they should not be so large or so numerous as to weaken the mechanical strength of the supporting metallic sheet to any considerable extent. We have found that perforated half-hard aluminum foil of 2% to 3 mils thickness has the mechanical strength to resist the tendency of the vulcanized fiber to curl upon absorbing moisture. Perforated hard aluminum foil 1% to 2 mils thick, as well as ordinary window screen in which the meshes are approximately inch, may also be used as the re-enforcing element.
This construction is readily understood by referenee to the accompanying drawing in which:
Figure l is a side elevation of a disc made according to the present invention; and
Figure 2 is a perspective view of the improved disc showing its slightly convex shape.
In the drawing the reference character II indicates a backing consisting of vulcanized fiber to one side of which a layer of abrasive grains l I is attached by a bond l2. The other side of the fiber is provided with a layer It of a perforated non-hygroscopic material, preferably metallic in nature, which is attached to the vulcanized fiber by an adhesive It.
The adhesive securing the perforated metallic support to the backing may comprise a heathardening phenolic resin such as phenol-aldehyde, urea-aldehyde or resorcinol aldehyde resins. Such resins firmly bond the re-enforcing layer to the vulcanized fiber without slippage in use.
The layer of perforated metal foil may be applied to the web of vulcanized fiber before or after the abrasive grits are bonded to the vulcanized fiber and before the discs'are cut from the coated web.
As previously mentioned, the invention may be employed with disc backing materials of moisture-absorbent material other than vulcanized fiber, such as paper or cloth, or a combination of 4 vulcanized fiber and cloth. The curling problem is usually not so acute when combination backings are employed since the cloth is impregnated rather completely with the combining adhesive and a thin web of vulcanized fiber, of about mils thickness, is employed. The thin backing of ill-mil vulcanized fiber does not absorb as much moisture as does the thicker layers oi this material. When vulcanized fiber is used alone as the backing a layer of 20 to 40 mils thicks is generally employed.
The abrasive grains may be attached to the moisture-absorbent backing by any suitable adhesive such as a synthetic resin or by a combination of different adhesives. For example, they may be directly attached to the backing by a so-called "making coat" of glue and then a second or sizing coat of a synthetic resin, such as a phenol-aldehyde resin may be applied over the abrasive grains and the glue making coat, as is described in the patent to Netherly, Cross and Anderson No. 2,269,415 of January 6, 1942.
While our invention has been described and illustrated in various details, it will be understood by those skilled in the art of making abrasive-coated sheet material that all variations and substitutions within the scope of the broad concepts of our invention are comprehended.
