Reference work process for polyimide resin powder in grinding wheels
Recommended curing temperature: around 230℃;Recommended heat pressure: 30-60MPa
1. Heat pressure time for different wheel diameter/thickness(for reference)
Grinding Wheels | Diameter(mm) | <Φ150 and irregular | Φ150-200 | Φ250-400 | ||
Thickness(mm) | All | <10 | >20 | <25 | >25 | |
Heat Pressure Time(min.) | 40 | 40 | 60 | 90 | 120 |
2. Temperature and time for curing process ( for reference)
Temp.(℃) | 80 | rise | 120 | rise | 160 | rise | 200 | rise | 225 |
Time(hr.) | 1.0 | 0.5 | 1.0 | 0.5 | 1.0 | 0.5 | 1.0 | 1.0 | 3.0-6.0 |
3.When temperature of mould reaches around 160-170℃,start gas emission for 3-5times. Emission time
depends on real situation of final users. Curing time of above 2 can also be increased or reduced based on
real situation of final users
4.Exact filling proportion is always important in formulation for grinding wheels, Anyway,it relies on end users.
General reference procedures for making abrasive/grinding wheels/instruments of polyimide resin
1.Preparation of the resin:
As polyimide resin are hygroscopic, it has to be predried around 120 °C for a couple of hours before any use.
2.Primer Coating:
The primer solution should be applied thinly to the roughened bonding surface (using a brush) and dried for around 10 hours at 250 °C.
3.Release Agent:
We recommend silicone oil to spray to be applied in a very thin coating on the mould surfaces.
Note: 1.Since polyimide resins are hygroscopic, please predried at 250 °F (120 °C) for a couple of hours before any use
