Coated Abrasives Market New Business Opportunities and Investment Research

Coated abrasives are the abrasive products manufactured by gluing synthetic and natural abrasive grains such as aluminum oxide, silicon carbide, zirconia alumina, emery and garnet. These abrasive grains are supported by materials such as paper, cloth, fiber and polyester film. Coated abrasives are manufactured in the form of jumbo rolls, which are then cut into various shapes that include belts, discs, sheets and rolls for polishing and surface-treatment applications.
