Abstract

To investigate the effect of Li2O, K2O and ZnO on SiO2-Al2O3-B2O3-Na2O vitrified bond for CBN grinding wheels, the refractoriness and fluidity of specimens with different additions were studied. The bending strength was measured by three-point bending tester and the microstructures were observed by super Depth-of-Field microscope. The results show that Li2O, K2O and ZnO can reduce the refractoriness and increase the high-temperature fluidity. Li2O and K2O make a contribution to improving the bending strength; however ZnO is harmful to specimens’ mechanical property. Additionally, the fluidity is important to control the number of gas bubbles in specimen according to the microstructure analysis.
