Abstract
A composite material is formed of a carrier having a cellular structure and diamonds or other hard, abrasive particles received within the cellular structure. A matrix material holds the diamonds in the carrier, and the matrix material may be the carrier itself or an additional substance such as a metal powder or resin. The diamonds may protrude from the composite material for aggressive working, or may be embedded for longer life of the material. The cellular carrier has a skeleton that protects and mechanically supports the diamonds within the composite material for greater durability of the composite material.
Claims23
In a composite material for producing abrasive and wear resistant parts, said composite material including a carrier, and a plurality of hard particles fixed with respect to said carrier for providing an abrasive quality of the carrier, the improvement wherein said carrier consists of a cellular material comprising a skeleton defining a plurality of cells within said carrier, said plurality of hard particles being primarily received within said cells of said carrier, and matrix means for holding said hard particles within said cells.
