Abstract
An abrasive article which is made from a liquid resin composition containing no formaldehyde, which replaces the resol or urea-formaldehyde resin used as an adhesive in coated abrasives and the resol used as an impregnation resin in bonded abrasives. The liquid resin composition comprises a product that results from the oxidative cleavage of an unsaturated plant or animal oil, chosen from aldehydes, peroxides and mixtures of these compounds. The liquid resin composition can be used for the manufacture of coated and bonded abrasive articles.

Abstract
The invention relates to an abrasive article made from a liquid resin composition that does not contain formaldehyde, which replaces the resol or the urea-formaldehyde resin used as an adhesive in applied abrasives and the resol used as an impregnation resin in agglomerated abrasives. The liquid resin composition is characterised in that it includes a product resulting from the oxidative cleavage of an unsaturated vegetable or animal oil selected from among aldehydes, peroxides and mixtures of said compounds. The invention also relates to the use of the aforementioned liquid resin composition for the production of agglomerated and applied abrasive articles.

Abstract
Pulp production techniques are disclosed. In one embodiment, pulpstone segments are provided, that include proppant grits in the place of some or all of the conventional abrasive typically used in pulpstone applications. The proppant or proppant-abrasive mixture can be combined into a three-dimensional matrix supported by a vitrified bond. Alternative embodiments use proppant grits in an organic bond or a metal bond or a cement bond (each of which may also include abrasive grits in addition to proppant grits). The proportion of proppant grits to abrasive grits can be varied to produce pulp of varying fiber length distribution as required by the end-user (e.g., paper mill). The greater the proppant concentration, the less cutting of the fibers by the conventional abrasive will occur, producing a greater percentage content of longer fibers. Such pulp produces higher quality paper.

Abstract
The invention relates to a fettling, optionally sawing, wheel (1), in the form of a disk, said wheel comprising a central axis X, a central attaching region F, and at least one peripheral working region Z which extends outside the central fixing region in relation to the central axis, said wheel comprising at least one layer (3, 5) formed from abrasive grains and two layers which do not contain any abrasive grains (2, 6) surrounding the wheel. The inventive wheel is characterised in that the working region Z has a total thickness of less than 4 mm and preferably less than or equal to 3.2 mm.
