Abstract:

The formation mechanism of α-Fe2O3 on iron-bonded diamond wheel surface by ELID grinding is presented here. X-ray diffraction (XRD) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) techniques were used to analyze the compositions of the oxide films. X-ray diffraction analysis demonstrated the existence of the diffraction peak of α-Fe2O3, which was observed in ELID grinding iron-bonded diamond wheel surface. To illustrate the correctness of our theory, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy analysis was also performed. Results reveal that the characteristic spectrum of oxide film on ELID wheel has coincidence with the standard spectrum of Fe2p in α-Fe2O3. These results suggest the existence of α-Fe2O3 in oxide films on the grinding wheel surface. The potentiality that α-Fe2O3 can bring polishing effect to ELID grinding process has also been discussed. It helps understand how ELID grinding can achieve excellent surface finish for the workpiece.
