Abrasive article with microparticle-coated abrasive grains

An abrasive article comprising:

• a plurality of shaped abrasive particles, each shaped abrasive particle comprising:
• a monolithic ceramic particle having a first planar surface and a second planar surface, wherein the second planar surface is parallel to the first planar surface;
• a microparticulate layer disposed on at least a portion of the outer surface of each of the shaped abrasive particles,
• wherein the microparticulate layer comprises a plurality of microparticles dispersed in a microparticle binder;
• and
• wherein the microparticles have an aspect ratio greater than 2;
• and
• a second binder in which the plurality of shaped abrasive particles are embedded.
