Grinding material and production method of grinding material

A production method of a grinding material comprising:

• a base;
• a grinding layer overlaid on a front face side of the base and comprising grinding grains and a binder for the grinding grains;
• and an adhesion layer overlaid on a back face side of the base, the method comprising
• forming the grinding layer by printing with a grinding layer composition, wherein
• the grinding layer composition comprises diamond grinding grains;
• a forming material of the binder comprises an inorganic substance as a principal component;
• and a filler comprising an inorganic oxide as a principal component, and
• the grinding layer is formed such that a wear quantity of the grinding layer as determined by a Taber abrasion test is no less than 0.03 g and no greater than 0.18 g, an Asker D hardness measured from a front face side of the grinding layer is no less than 82° and no greater than 98°, and a content of the filler with respect to the grinding layer is no less than 15 volume % and no greater than 75 volume %.
