Abstract
Abstract Bonding of sintered sol-gel aluminous abrasive grits, comprising sub-micron sized alpha alumina crystals, in vitrified (ceramic) wheels results in abrasive performance superior to premium grade fused alumina in grinding tool- steels. Viscosity of the bond and/or temperature of firing must be controlled to avoid reaction between the bond and the abrasive.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim
41 words
A vitrified grinding wheel composed of aluminous abrasive grits and an inorganic glassy bond, characterized by the fact that said abrasive grits consist of a polycrystalline mass submicron alpha-alumina particles, said grits having a density of at least 95% of theoretical.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
