Abstract
The carborundum abrasive specimens bonded with a soda-borosilicate glass were prepared. Samples fired at specified temperatures with various mixing ratio and forming pressure were examined in terms of the structure, bonding strength, and microscopic observations. Increasing the forming pressure up to 400kg/$\cm^2$, the structure became denser in proportion to the forming pressure. The bonding strength was generally increased with increasing the mixing ratio (Vb/Vg), but the bloating phenomena were observed when samples were fired above 95$0^{\circ}C$ with mixing ratio above 20%, consequently, the bonding strength was decreased. Samples fired at the temperature range 900~95$0^{\circ}C$ with mixing ratio 15~30% had the dense structure with various grades.
