Generally, the wear mechanisms of abrasive particles are within the transregional collaborative research center

are still some small fractures and cleavages present at the
sides and edges of the diamond grains which are mainly
attributed to the unique truncating process among super
abrasives, as well as the anisotropic characteristics of the References
