The Zr/AbOa and La/AbOa systems were used for the preparation of washcoated supports. Special washcoating procedure has been developed. The properties of washcoated supports are given in Table 2. The attrition test procedure includes the measurement of weight loss of the sample by abrasive powder in the air flow. Testing conditions were the following ... 

Preparation of Materials with Special Functions. The porosity not only defines the adsorption parameters of a material, but also its mechanical stability. On the basis of this idea and the hydrolysis and condensation kinetics and its effect on microstructure, an abrasive powder was developed (12-13) with an abrasion-controlling mechanism for human skin. The investigation of the synthesis parameter shows a direct connection between the composition and the mechanical properties of the granular material (Figure 6). As expected from the previous experiments, HCl had to be used to provide reproducible CH3 concentrations and well-defined, reproducible material properties.

The polished sections are prepared by mounting the cut specimen in Bakelite or Lucite plastic and then grinding and polishing one face smooth, using a series of abrasive papers, followed by abrasive powders suspended in water on cloth wheels. 

The application of the colloidal method is certainly not new to ceramic powder preparation, for example, ancient applications include the cigeing of clays for hand moulding. In addition, colloidal methodology has been applied for more than one hundred years to prepare clay slurries for casting into porous moulds, usually plaster-of-paris, to form thin walled, complex shaped bodies. Colloidal methods are also commonly used to fractionate ceramic abrasive media to obtain a desired narrow particle size distribution, however their use prior to consolidation of a ceramic body to eliminate or reduce in size the common heterogeneities associated with ceramic powders, such as agglomerates and inclusions, is relatively rare. 

The preparation of ceramic powders by CVD is a promising and growing field. These powders are used as precursors for the processing of advanced ceramics, or directly as powder for such applications as abrasives. 

This method involves the removal of mbber particles from tire tread by abrasion and is confined to the preparation of tire buffings, which is obtained as a by-product of retreading. It is a normal practice in industries to reuse tire buffings to make low-technical products by the revulcanization of the powder or by using the powder-sintering process. 

Tin(II) oxide is a reducing agent and is used in preparing other tin(II) salts. Also, it is used to make soft abrasive putty powder. 

These are the agents or mechanical aids which are available as tooth powder, paste, or gel and used with tooth brush to cleanse and polish natural teeth. They are prepared in the form of bulk powder and containing soap or detergent and mild abrasive agent which should have maximum cleansing efficiency with minimum tooth abrasion. 

Silicon combines with carbon to form silicon carbide or carborundum, SiC, and forms are known that have the wurtzite and zinc blende structures. It is a very hard, tough material that is used as an abrasive and a refractory. The powdered material is crushed after mixing with clay and heated in molds to make grinding wheels. It is prepared by the reaction... 

Other applications are found in powder technology. The cohesion in pellets formed out of dry powders can be improved by treating the powder with an appropriate polymer solution. This process is used on an enormous scale to prepare iron ore in a form suitable for blast furnaces, but also for the preparation of pharmaceutical specialty products. Polymers are applied at a large scale in paper-making where they help to strengthen the network of celluloslc fibres and to trap different kinds of particles in this network. The building of a network Is also the purpose of adding carbon black to rubber, which improves its resilience and abrasive resistance. 

Interlayer dielectric (ILD) CMP typically uses a fumed silica slurry dispersed in an aqueous medium at a pH near 11 Fumed silica is a widely adapted abrasive for ILD CMP because of its inexpensive price, high purity, and colloidal stability. However, fumed silica is difficult to disperse in an aqueous system, and it is difficult to control powder processing because of the large specific surface area of 90 15 mVg, making it very reactive. ILD CMP slurry was prepared at pH 11 to accelerate the chemical attack on the deposited PETEOS film on the wafer surface. But silica particles dispersed in aqueous media are partially dissolved at pH 11. Consequently the removal rate decreased and microscratches were generated on the wafer surface due to agglomeration of silica particles as surface potentials decreased. ... 

Use Reducing agent, intermediate in preparation of stannous salts as used in plating and glass industries, pharmaceuticals, soft abrasive (putty powder). 

Using the classical resol chemistry, Asai and coworkers patented new molded materials.Added to the resol phenolic resin are inorganic fiber, a silica powder, and a rubber component. The prepared phenolic resin composition was noted to have excellent resistance to abrasive wear and to heat shock, as well as excellent mechanical strength. As such, this material is very suitable for the fabrication of engine parts such as pulleys. These pulleys are currently fabricated from heavier and more expensive materials.
