Abstract

The invention provides a cutting and lubricating composition with abrasive particles for cutting hard and brittle workpieces with a wire saw or other cutting or grinding tool. The composition provides electrostatic and steric repulsion between the abrasive particles to maintain the particles in suspension without forming hard settled cakes from suspension “fall-out”.
