ELID Grinding, since its introduction over two decades ago, has helped in material removal of hard and difficult-to-cut engineering materials. A gist of the important research milestones on the process has been organized in this report. The hybrid process of ELID Grinding has a simultaneous electrolytic reaction and grinding action. Electrolysis takes place between the conductive anodic wheel and highly conductive cathode in presence of a special electrolyte. The resulting anodic oxide wears off easily to allow efficient grinding. The different parameters involved in electrolysis complicate the mechanism of grinding and makes it significantly different from conventional grinding. Different variants of the process have also been reported, though the basic philosophy of operation is the same as basic ELID. Several authors have also suggested mathematical explanations, among other fundamental studies, that provide further insight. The basic components of the process, machine tool, power supply, grinding wheel, electrode and electrolytes, have also undergone several modifications and developments to deliver better results and suit specific purposes. The process has been successfully applied in stock removal operations for hard and brittle ceramic materials with low grinding forces compared to conventional grinding. Fine finishing of almost all kinds of hard and brittle materials, ranging from hardened steels, BK7 glass, mono-crystalline silicon, silicon carbide, aluminum nitride, silicon nitride etc, has been successfully carried out, to provide high quality surfaces with low sub-surface damage. Finally, discussions on the different stages of evolution of the process have been put forward as a conclusion to the report.

Ultrasonic-assisted electrolytic in-process dressing (UA-ELID) grinding is a promising technology that uses a metal-bonded diamond grinding wheel to achieve a mirror surface finish on hard and brittle materials. In this paper, the UA-ELID grinding was applied to nanocomposite ceramic for investigating the cavitation effect on the processing performance. Firstly, the ultrasonic cavitation theory was utilized to define the cavitation threshold, collapse of cavitation bubbles, and variation of their radii. Next, the online monitoring system was designed to observe the ultrasonic cavitation under different ultrasonic amplitude for the actual UA-ELID grinding test. A strong effect of ultrasonic cavitation on the grinding wheel surface and the formed oxide film was experimentally proved. Besides, under the action of ultrasonic vibration, the dressing effect of the grinding wheel was improved, and the sharpness of grain increased by 43.2%, and the grain distribution was dramatically changed with the increase of ultrasonic amplitude. Compared with the conventional ELID (C-ELID) grinding, the average protrusion height increased by 14.2%, while the average grain spacing dropped by 21.2%. The UA-ELID grinding reduced the workpiece surface roughness Rz and Ra by 54.2% and 46.5%, respectively, and increased the surface residual compressive stress by 44.5%. The surface morphology observation revealed a change in the material removal mechanism and improvement of the surface quality by ultrasonic cavitation effect. These findings are considered instrumental in theoretical and experimental substantiation of the optimal UA-ELID grinding parameters for the processing of nanocomposite ceramics.

The development and evaluation of brake pads using groundnut shell (GS) particles as substitute material for asbestos were carried out in this study. This was with a view to harnessing the properties of GS, which is largely deposited as waste, and in replacing asbestos which is carcinogenic in nature despite its good tribological and mechanical properties. Two sets of composite material were developed using varying particle sizes of GS as filler material, with phenolic resin as binder with percentage compositions of 45% and 50% respectively. Results obtained indicate that the compressive strength and density increase as the sieve size of the filler material decreases, while water and oil absorption rates increase with an increase in sieve size of GS particle. This study also indicates that the cost of producing brake pad can be reduced by 19.14 percent if GS is use as filler material in producing brake pad. The results when compared with those of asbestos and industrial waste showed that GS particle can be used as an effective replacement for asbestos in producing automobile brake pad. Unlike asbestos, GS-based brake pads are environmental friendly, biodegradable and cost effective.

This research is dedicated to the role of different amounts of hexagonal BN (hBN: 0, 1.5, 3, and 4.5 wt%) on the pressureless sinterability of ZrB2–25 vol% SiC ceramics. Phenolic resin (5 wt%) with a carbon yield of ~40 % was incorporated as a binder to the powder mixtures and after initial cold pressing, the final sintering process was performed at 1900 °C for 100 min in a vacuum furnace. The as-sintered specimens were characterized by X-ray diffractometry, field emission scanning electron microscopy, and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. The results disclosed that the incorporation of 1.5 wt% hBN could increase the relative density to ~92%, while the sample with zero hBN content just reached ~81% of full densification. Appropriate hBN content not only facilitated the particle rearrangement during the cold pressing, but also removed the harmful oxide impurities during the final sintering. Nevertheless, the addition of higher amounts of hBN remarkably lessened the densification because of more delamination of the non-reacted hBN flakes and release and entrapment of more gaseous by-products induced by the reacted hBN phases.
