N. Umehara et al., IN-SITU OBSERVATION OF THE BEHAVIOR OF ABRASIVES IN MAGNETIC FLUID GRINDING, Journal of magnetism and magnetic materials, 149(1-2), 1995, pp. 181-184
In order to understand the effect of a magnetic field on the polishing
properties, the behavior of abrasives in a magnetic fluid between two
mating surfaces was observed in situ during magnetic fluid grinding.
It was shown that the number of abrasives on the finishing surface cou
ld be controlled by the magnetic field during finishing by the magneti
c field.
