Claim 1
Independent Claim
191 words
A method of forming a coated abrasive comprising providing a fibrous backing material, coating the backing material on one side with a resin system comprising an epoxy acrylate, a pyrrolidone derivative and an inorganic filler, to form a face fill coat, curing said face fill coat by exposure to electron radiation, applying a back fill coat to the opposite side of said fibrous material, wherein said back fill composition comprises an epoxy acrylate resin, a pyrrolidone derivative and an inorganic filler, curing said back fill by exposure to an electron radiation source, applying a make coat over the face coat wherein said make coat comprises an epoxy acrylate resin, a pyrrolidone derivative and an inorganic filler, applying abrasive grain material to said make coat, exposing said make coat having embedded therein the abrasive grain material to a curing amount of electron radiation, applying a size coat over the abrasive grain and make coat wherein said size coat comprises an epoxy acrylate resin, a pyrrolidone derivative, an acrylic acid derivative and inorganic filler and curing said wet size coat by exposure to a source of electron radiation to cure said size coat.
Claim 2
Independent Claim
191 words
A method of forming a coated abrasive comprising providing a fibrous backing material, coating the backing material on one side with a resin system comprising an epoxy acrylate, a pyrrolidone derivative and an inorganic filler, to form a face fill coat, curing said face fill coat by exposure to electron radiation, applying a back fill coat to the opposite side of said fibrous material, wherein said back fill composition comprises an epoxy acrylate resin, a pyrrolidone derivative and an inorganic filler, curing said back fill by exposure to an electron radiation source, applying a make coat over the face coat wherein said make coat comprises an epoxy acrylate resin, a pyrrolidone derivative and an inorganic filler, applying abrasive grain material to said make coat, exposing said make coat having embedded therein the abrasive grain material to a curing amount of electron radiation, applying a size coat over the abrasive grain and make coat wherein said size coat comprises an epoxy acrylate resin, a pyrrolidone derivative, an acrylic acid derivative and inorganic filler and curing said wet size coat by exposure to a source of electron radiation to cure said size coat.
Claim 3
Independent Claim
97 words
A method of forming a backing material for a coated abrasive comprising providing a fibrous backing material, coating the backing material on one side with a resin system comprising an epoxy acrylate, a pyrrolidone derivative and an inorganic filler, to form a face fill coat, curing said face fill coat by exposure to electron radiation, applying a back fill coat to the opposite side of said fibrous material, wherein said back fill composition comprises an epoxy acrylate resin, a pyrrolidone derivative and an inorganic filler and curing said back fill by exposure to an electron radiation source.
Claim 4
Independent Claim
97 words
A method of forming a backing material for a coated abrasive comprising providing a fibrous backing material, coating the backing material on one side with a resin system comprising an epoxy acrylate, a pyrrolidone derivative and an inorganic filler, to form a face fill coat, curing said face fill coat by exposure to electron radiation, applying a back fill coat to the opposite side of said fibrous material, wherein said back fill composition comprises an epoxy acrylate resin, a pyrrolidone derivative and an inorganic filler and curing said back fill by exposure to an electron radiation source.

Claim 9
Independent Claim
133 words
The method of forming a coated abrasive comprising providing a fibrous backing material, coating the fibrous backing material on one side with a resin system comprising an epoxy acrylate, a pyrrolidone derivative and an inorganic filler to form a face fill coating, curing said face fill coating by exposure to electron radiation, applying a back fill coat to the opposite side of said fibrous backing material, wherein said back fill composition comprises an epoxy acrylate resin, a pyrrolidone derivative and an inorganic filler, curing said back fill coating by exposure to an electron radiation source, applying a make coat to the cured face fill coating, applying abrasive grain to said make coat, curing said make coat and applying a size coat over the cured make coat and abrasive and curing said size coat.
Claim 10
Independent Claim
133 words
The method of forming a coated abrasive comprising providing a fibrous backing material, coating the fibrous backing material on one side with a resin system comprising an epoxy acrylate, a pyrrolidone derivative and an inorganic filler to form a face fill coating, curing said face fill coating by exposure to electron radiation, applying a back fill coat to the opposite side of said fibrous backing material, wherein said back fill composition comprises an epoxy acrylate resin, a pyrrolidone derivative and an inorganic filler, curing said back fill coating by exposure to an electron radiation source, applying a make coat to the cured face fill coating, applying abrasive grain to said make coat, curing said make coat and applying a size coat over the cured make coat and abrasive and curing said size coat.
