How to Improve the Mechanical Strength of Diamond Grinding Wheels

   To enhance the heat resistance and mechanical strength of phenolic resin binders in diamond grinding wheels, various fillers are incorporated during the preparation of resin-bonded abrasives to modify the phenolic resin. For example, adding copper powder improves the resin’s thermal stability; incorporating zinc oxide, chromium oxide, and similar compounds helps increase its mechanical strength; and introducing soft materials such as flaky graphite or molybdenum disulfide significantly enhances the abrasive performance of resin-bonded tools.

  However, the most effective approach to enhancing the performance of phenolic resins is to incorporate organic modifiers, likely because, compared with inorganic materials, organic substances exhibit greater compatibility with phenolic resins in terms of molecular structure and surface properties.
