| Lapping and Polishing Applications | |
| Super light Viscosity 0÷5 CPS PH=8÷9. | This Glycol Based Vehicle made especially for electronic industry to be used with atomizing delivery systems. Slurry needs to be agitated to keep abrasives well suspended. |
|
| Light Viscosity 10÷30 CPS PH=7÷9. | This Water Based Vehicle is recommended for processes where environmental issues are critical. Abrasive sizes to be under 30 um. Powder may settle down, agitation is recommended. | Recommended for polishing hard ceramics and carbides with abrasives smaller than 10 um. |
| Medium Viscosity 60÷100 CPS PH=8÷9 | This Water Based Vehicle is recommended for use with Silicon Carbide and Diamonds, size under 100 um. Powder will stay in suspension. | Recommended for use with Boron Carbide and Diamond, all different sizes, for processes requiring a high material stock removal rate. |
| Heavy Viscosity 300÷500 CPS PH=8÷9. | This Water Based Vehicle is recommended to use with Boron Carbide and Diamonds where uniformity of abrasive suspension is critical. Powder size over 100 um. |
|
| Slicing Applications | |
| Heavy Viscosity Concentrate | This Glycol Based Vehicle is recommended for use in slicing processes in wire and blade saw cutting machines. | Recommended to use in standard slicing processes. |
| Heavy Viscosity 400÷500 CPS PH=8÷9. | This Glycol Based Vehicle has cutting and cooling benefits are equal to oil based products. Can be diluted to obtain desired viscosity as needed with water or glycol. | Can be diluted to proper viscosity level with standard thinners. |
