Abstract
Abstract A friction promoting layer is provided which comprises a binder and particulate material and is suitable for use with film backed coated abrasives. The binder used is one that shrinks upon drying and curing to ensure that particulates in the layer are not buried in the binder component.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim
62 words
A process for producing a film backed coated abrasive which comprises coating the non-abrading surface of the film backing with a friction promoting layer comprising a radiation-curable binder, a particulate material and at least 20% of a liquid carrier medium, drying and curing said friction-promoting layer whereby said layer is caused to shrink in volume by from about 20 to about 60%.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
62 words
A process for producing a film backed coated abrasive which comprises coating the non-abrading surface of the film backing with a friction promoting layer comprising a radiation-curable binder, a particulate material and at least 20% of a liquid carrier medium, drying and curing said friction-promoting layer whereby said layer is caused to shrink in volume by from about 20 to about 60%.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
48 words
A process according to claim 1 in which the friction promoting layer comprises from about 10 to about 40% by volume of a radiation-curable binder, from about 30 to about 70% by volume of a particulate material and at least 20% by volume of a liquid carrier medium.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
14 words
A process according to claim 1 in which the liquid carrier medium is water.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
22 words
A process according to claim 1 in which the volume ratio of particulate to binder is from about 1:1 to about 4:1.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
25 words
A process according to claim 1 in which the binder is selected from the group consisting of urethane-(meth)acrylates, epoxy-(meth)acrylates, epoxy-novolac (meth)acrylates, polyester and (meth)acrylic (meth)acrylates.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
31 words
A process according to claim 1 in which the particulate material is first treated with a coupling agent and is selected from the group consisting of silica, talc and calcium carbonate.
