An electroplated steel wire segment-combined grinding wheel includes a base component for connecting an external device, and steel wire segments, wherein the steel wire segments are combined and assembled on the base component in a ring, and outer walls of the steel wire segments are plated with diamonds to form a grinding surface. The steel wire segments are combined and assembled mechanically on a support base, wherein the support base is a reusable tool, and replacing the grinding surface combined by the steel wire segments is convenient for reducing a renovation cost of the electroplated steel wire segment-combined grinding wheel. For the electroplated steel wire segment-combined grinding wheel, drainage channels are naturally formed between the steel wire segments and segment arcs, and thus, internally cooled type cooling and rapid chip removal are facilitated.

The design of a stainless-steel cylindrical tool for manual grinding and polishing of cement-based thin sample (two cylinders one within the other, connected by the movable threaded holder with a plate, that passes through the middle) enables very precise removal of sample layers to its thickness of 1-mm ( 1/32 inch) and less. The squared, young aged sample rests on the circular plate on a holder, that can be slowly and safely rotated during thin layer removal, to obtain a smooth and flat sample surface, which can produce sharp digital images in ESEM, necessary for detailed and accurate image analysis. The cylindrical tool can be reassembled. It is reusable, easy to maintain and clean. Its design is practical since inner cylinder can be replaced if damaged, with the identically designed inner cylinder or with differently designed inner cylinder adjusted to another sample size.

A grinding wheel includes a disc-like member and a grinding layer disposed on an outer peripheral surface of the disc-like member. The grinding layer includes a plurality of circumferentially-divided grinding chips which are divided in a circumferential direction. Each of the circumferentially-divided grinding chips is formed by arranging a first grinding chip and a second grinding chip in the axis direction, the first grinding chip and the second grinding chip having different properties. A boundary portion between the first grinding chip and the second grinding chip of at least three circumferentially-divided grinding chips continuously arranged in the circumferential direction are arranged toward a predetermined direction in the axis direction in the order in which the circumferentially-divided grinding chips are arranged.
