Abstract

The invention provides a method of making an abrasive compact using conventional compact synthesis conditions. The method is characterized by the use of an ultra-hard abrasive particle mass comprising at least 25 percent by mass of ultra-hard abrasive particles having an average particle size in the range 10 to 100 microns, and consisting of particles having at least three different average particle sizes, and at least 4 percent by mass of ultra-hard abrasive particles having an average particle size of less than 10 microns. The abrasive compact is preferably a diamond compact.
