Coated abrasive articles comprise a backing and an abrasive layer, wherein at the abrasive layer comprises a reaction product of components comprising polyfunctional acrylate, alicyclic polyepoxide, and aromatic polyepoxide having an average epoxy functionality of at least 2.5.
A thermoplastic endless belt has a smooth outer surface substantially free of discontinuities and an inner surface with a plurality of teeth at a given belt pitch. The teeth are adapted to engage a sprocket with circumferentially spaced sheaves at a sprocket pitch greater than the belt pitch. The belt is slightly stretchable so that the sprocket can drive the endless belt when engaging the teeth within a range of load on the belt. The belt is preferred for use in conveyors in food processing industries where the smooth outer surface can transport food items and is easier to clean and keep free of impurities.
The disclosure is directed to a method of forming a structured abrasive article. The method includes coating a backing with an abrasive slurry comprising binder and abrasive grains, partially curing the abrasive slurry and forming a pattern in the partially cured abrasive slurry.
