The resulting molten glass was then immersed in deionized water for water quenching. The quenched glass was then ground into powder with an average particle size of 2 μm and finally dried.
[0028] Comparative Example 3: The method is basically the same as in Example 1, except that refined naphthalene is used instead of modified diatomaceous earth as the pore-forming agent, and the amount of pore-forming agent and the preparation method are also adjusted accordingly. A method for preparing super-essential oilstone: 100g of β-SiC with an average particle size of 5μm, 8g of glass powder and 10g of refined naphthalene were mixed evenly, and then 10g of sugar water with a mass concentration of 25% was added to obtain a wet material.

[0029] Comparative Example 4: The method is basically the same as in Example 1, except that dimethyl terephthalate is used instead of modified diatomaceous earth as the pore-forming agent, and the amount of pore-forming agent and the preparation method are also adjusted accordingly. A method for preparing super-essential oilstone: 100g of β-SiC with an average particle size of 5μm, 8g of glass powder and 10g of dimethyl terephthalate were mixed evenly, and then 10g of sugar syrup with a mass concentration of 25% was added to obtain a wet material.

Finally, it was sintered in a muffle furnace at a rate of 5℃ / min to 850℃ for 2h.
[0030] Performance testing: ① The super oilstones prepared in Examples 1-3 and Comparative Examples 1-4 of the present invention were used as samples for performance testing.
[0031] The porosity and density of the samples were determined using the methods described in GB / T 1966-2024, "Determination of Apparent Porosity and Bulk Density of Porous Ceramics". The flexural strength was determined using the three-point bending method on a computer-controlled electronic universal testing machine. The sample dimensions were 80 mm × 12 mm × 8 mm. The Rockwell hardness of the samples was determined using a Rockwell hardness tester.
[0032] The test results are shown in Table 1 below: Table 1: As shown in Table 1 above, the super-fine oilstone of the present invention has a high porosity and maintains high hardness while maintaining its performance, thus achieving a balance between ultra-long lifespan and excellent ultra-fine finishing effect.
[0033] ② The ring was ultra-finished using the ultra-refined oilstone prepared in Example 1. The surface morphology of the ring groove was observed using a scanning electron microscope. The surface morphology of the ring groove before ultra-finishing is as follows: Figure 1 As shown in the figure, the surface quality of the channel is poor and does not meet the technical requirements of precision bearings. Ultra-precision machining of the channel is required to improve the surface quality of the channel.
[0034] The surface morphology of the raceway groove after ultra-precision machining is as follows Figure 2 As shown, after oilstone superfinishing, a large number of brittle fracture surfaces and plastic protrusions are removed, resulting in a smooth and flat surface. However, a small number of deep grooves remain. These grooves can store lubricating oil during bearing operation, which helps reduce internal frictional losses. The surface roughness of the grooves should not be too low; excessively low surface roughness will cause the rolling elements inside the bearing to not roll purely, resulting in relative sliding and affecting the bearing's service performance and lifespan. After superfinishing, the surface is relatively smooth, and the surface quality is significantly improved.
[0035] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, and are not intended to limit it. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some of the technical features. Such modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention.
