Oxidation or oxide materials in the machining zone in superabrasive grinding—A factor of influence on the grinding performance

Resumo

To enhance grinding performance the authors consider the application of some indirect measures to stimulate oxidation processes as well as the use of oxides and oxidation-prone materials in the wheel working layer, because the direct introduction of oxygen to the machining zone, which is an important factor to change tribotechnical characteristics of the contact surfaces, presents certain difficulties.
