The present disclosure relates to a method for making a grinding wheel with abrasive surfaces located on an outer diameter of the grinding wheel to provide grinding characteristics of both coarse and fine abrasive textures. The method includes forming on the grinding wheel a coarse abrasive portion located proximate to a first axial end of the outer diameter, a fine abrasive portion located proximate to a second axial end of the outer diameter and a transition band formed at an interface between the abrasive surfaces. The transition band has an abrasive coating with a gradual change in texture from a coarse surface to a fine surface.

Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to advanced polishing pads with tunable chemical, material and structural properties, and new methods of manufacturing the same. According to one or more embodiments of the disclosure, it has been discovered that a polishing pad with improved properties may be produced by an additive manufacturing process, such as a three-dimensional (3D) printing process. Embodiments of the present disclosure thus may provide an advanced polishing pad that has discrete features and geometries, formed from at least two different materials that include functional polymers, functional oligomers, reactive diluents, and curing agents. For example, the advanced polishing pad may be formed from a plurality of polymeric layers, by the automated sequential deposition of at least one resin precursor composition followed by at least one curing step, wherein each layer may represent at least one polymer composition, and/or regions of different compositions.
