【 摘 要 】

Using waste to produce artificial abrasives is one of the options to minimize cost. In this work, two waste materials had been selected to form bonded abrasives. Porcelain tiles and window glass wastes were crushed and grinned to obtain grits of (1200, 300, 150 μm). Bonded abrasives were manufactured as composites, consisting of waste materials and epoxy as a binder. To measure the durability of these composites, different conditions were carried out. The best results of hardness and wear rate were obtained from porcelain composites at room temperature. The post cure and immersion give the highest wear rate results for both materials. To reveal the possibility of utilizing recycled materials as bonded abrasives, two ceramics material were chosen. Glass and porcelain were selected because of their good hardness and strength which make them suitable to be recycled as abrasives.
