Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 24
Claim 1
Independent Claim
83 words
Coated abrasive material (10) comprising: a. a backing member (12), and b. a layer of coated abrasive (14) comprising: 1. a maker coat (16), and 2. a layer of a plurality of preshaped filamentary abrasive particles (18) having a substantially uniform cross-section adhered to said backing member by said maker coat, said abrasive particles each being of a substantially uniform cross-section with an aspect ratio of at least 1 and comprising sintered alpha alumina crystals having a size no greater than 2 µm.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
83 words
Coated abrasive material (10) comprising: a. a backing member (12), and b. a layer of coated abrasive (14) comprising: 1. a maker coat (16), and 2. a layer of a plurality of preshaped filamentary abrasive particles (18) having a substantially uniform cross-section adhered to said backing member by said maker coat, said abrasive particles each being of a substantially uniform cross-section with an aspect ratio of at least 1 and comprising sintered alpha alumina crystals having a size no greater than 2 µm.
