Abstract
Modern civilization would not be possible without bonded abrasive products. By the year 1825 sand, emery, and even diamond were being bonded together with shellac for use in abrasive sticks and wheels. Rubber bonded wheels were introduced in 1857, the sodium silicate and the vitrified bond just after the Civil War,1 and the phenolic resin bond in 1923. The metal bond was introduced for diamond wheels in 1940.
