Definitions

  • abrasive performance posits that workpiece material removal rate is related to the mechanical properties (i.e., hardness), size, and shape (i.e., sharpness) of the abrasive material.
  • mechanical properties i.e., hardness
  • size i.e., size
  • shape i.e., sharpness
  • the likelihood of an abrasive material producing scratches on a workpiece is generally discussed in terms of the relative hardness of the abrasive material and the workpiece.
  • size and shape affect the geometry of scratches produced by abrasives, forming a scratch requires the deformation of the workpiece by the abrasive material. For this to occur, the abrasive material must be locally stiffer than the workpiece.
  • the abrasive material is not sufficiently hard so as to deform the workpiece, soils located on the surface of the workpiece having a lower hardness than the workpiece itself can be effectively cleaned by an abrasive material boasting sizes and shapes amenable to high soil removal rates, namely, relatively tall protrusions with relatively sharp edges.
  • the present invention is a structured abrasive article including a substrate having a first major surface and a second major surface, and a plurality of shaped abrasive composites.
  • Each of the shaped abrasive composites includes a bottom surface in contact with the first major surface of the substrate.
  • Each of the bottom surfaces takes the shape of a concave polygon and each of the concave polygons has a convex hull having n sides.
  • the present invention is a structured abrasive article including a substrate having a first major surface and a second major surface, and at least one shaped abrasive composite having a bottom surface. The bottom surface of the at least one shaped abrasive composite is positioned on the first major surface of the substrate and has at least one internal concave angle.
  • the present invention is a shaped abrasive composite including a binder phase and a particulate grain phase dispersed within the binder phase. The shaped abrasive composite has at least one internal concave angle.
  • FIGS. 1-11 show the configurations of shaped abrasive composites according to various exemplary embodiments.
  • the present invention is an abrasive composite designed, through geometry and composition, to have high scouring performance without producing appreciable damage to the underlying substrate being cleaned.
  • the abrasive composite can be used for home cleaning that results in substantially no or minimal damage to materials such as, for example, poly(tetrafluoroethylene), stainless steel, and hard plastics. After being used to clean, the abrasive composite can be essentially rinsed clean of debris removed from the surfaces being cleaned.
  • the abrasive composite of the present invention is durable and wears well.
  • the abrasive composite of the present invention is formed from dispersing a mineral or particulate grain phase in an organic binder phase.
  • particulate grains are bound together by a binder that serves both as a dispersing medium for the particulate grains and as a means of attaching the abrasive composites to a substrate or backing, if desired.
  • the particulate grains primarily act as a filler and viscosity modifier in the uncured liquid binder.
  • the particulate grains of traditionally coated or nonwoven abrasives generally have high Mohs hardness values and can remove a significant amount of material from a surface contacted by the particulate grains through a plowing or cutting mechanism.
  • the amount of material removed is dependent on the shape, hardness, and size of the particle grain, as well as the pressure, speed, and geometry of the abrading operation.
  • gouges formed on a surface from removed material are framed as "scratches". While individual particulate grains with a low Mohs hardness value (i.e., less than or equal to about 3) may not produce a visible scratch on a test surface, the particulate grains can affect scratching by modifying the mechanical properties of the composite in accordance with general mixing rules for composites.
  • the abrasive composites of the present invention contain particulate grains having a Mohs hardness of less than or equal to about 3.
  • an abrasive compositive having a higher Mohs hardness, or higher modulus generally results in higher cleaning performance, it also results in an increased amount of surface damage or scratches. Conversely, while an abrasive compositive having a lower modulus generally aids in avoiding surface damages or scratches, it also lowers the cleaning performance of the abrasive composite.

  • the modulus and glass transition temperature of the binder mixture can be tuned to optimize the balance of cleaning performance and surface damage, avoiding the more costly molecular engineering required to synthesize a single material having the desired glass transition temperature and modulus.

  • the binder is capable of being cured or gelled relatively quickly so that the abrasive composite can be quickly fabricated.

  • aluminum oxide is used as the mineral in the abrasive composite formulation of hexagonal scouring features. The results are shown in Table 6, and are contrary to those of industrial abrasive products, where the effects of abrasive particle size and concentration are readily identified.
  • abrasives are generally used with hand-held or stationary power tools capable of delivering much greater pressures and much higher speeds than the human arm or a Schieffer machine.
  • the engineered abrasive features break down (through wear and fracture) much more quickly, thereby constantly exposing new abrasive mineral.
