Abstract
Abstract A composite abrasive compact is produced by placing strips of suitable abrasive material on a cemented carbide substrate. The strips each comprise abrasive particles, optionally with a particulate second phase, in an organic binder. The organic binder is first removed by volatilization. Then, the cemented carbide substrate with the strips thereon is subjected to compact-producing conditions of elevated temperature and pressure.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 20
Claim 1
Independent Claim
46 words
A method according to the layer of particulate components is deposited on the surface of the substrate by suspending the particulate components in a liquid containing the organic binder dispersed or dissolved therein, depositing liquid suspension on the surface and removing the liquid from the suspension.
Claim 2
Independent Claim
46 words
A method according to the layer of particulate components is deposited on the surface of the substrate by suspending the particulate components in a liquid containing the organic binder dispersed or dissolved therein, depositing liquid suspension on the surface and removing the liquid from the suspension.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
11 words
A method according to claim 1 wherein the liquid is water.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
16 words
A method according to claim 2 wherein the liquid is removed from the suspension by heating.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
29 words
A method according to claim 1 wherein the layer of particulate components is a coherent, self-supporting layer which is pre-formed and then placed on the surface of the substrate.
Claim 6
Independent Claim
148 words
A method of making an abrasive body which comprises a layer of bonded ultra-hard abrasive particles bonded to a substrate, including the steps of: (i) providing the substrate; (ii) depositing a layer of the components necessary to form the layer of bonded ultra-hard abrasive particles, in particulate form, in an organic binder on a surface of the substrate; and (iii) subjecting the substrate and layer to conditions of elevated temperature and pressure at which the ultra-hard abrasive particle is crystallographically stable wherein the layer of particulate components is a coherent, self-supporting layer which is pre-formed and then placed on the surface of the substrate, the coherent, self-supporting layer being produced by depositing a coating of the particulate components suspended in a liquid which contains the organic binder dissolved or dispersed therein on to a support surface, removing the liquid from the coating, and heating the thus treated coating.
Claim 7
Independent Claim
148 words
A method of making an abrasive body which comprises a layer of bonded ultra-hard abrasive particles bonded to a substrate, including the steps of: (i) providing the substrate; (ii) depositing a layer of the components necessary to form the layer of bonded ultra-hard abrasive particles, in particulate form, in an organic binder on a surface of the substrate; and (iii) subjecting the substrate and layer to conditions of elevated temperature and pressure at which the ultra-hard abrasive particle is crystallographically stable wherein the layer of particulate components is a coherent, self-supporting layer which is pre-formed and then placed on the surface of the substrate, the coherent, self-supporting layer being produced by depositing a coating of the particulate components suspended in a liquid which contains the organic binder dissolved or dispersed therein on to a support surface, removing the liquid from the coating, and heating the thus treated coating.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
