What is FilmTek? #short

What happens here

The presenter introduces two types of aluminum oxide abrasives: FilmTek and Ekastorm. It is clarified that both are made of aluminum oxide, but FilmTek uses a film backing while Ekastorm uses a paper backing. This foundational difference in backing material is key to their varying performance characteristics.

Goal: Identify the basic composition and backing material of each abrasive type.
