A heat exchanger is disclosed for transferring heat from a first material to a second material comprises a structural heat transfer member having a first surface in contact with the first material and a second surface in contact with the second material. The heat exchanger also has a coating on the first surface, the second surface, or on the first and second surfaces. The coating comprises filler particles dispersed in a polymer resin matrix.

An additive impregnated abrasive article and method for fabricating the same is provided. The method includes providing an abrasive article having a pore structure, dissolving an additive in a supercritical fluid, and exposing the abrasive article to the additive-laden supercritical fluid, so that the fluid disperses through the pore structure. The supercritical fluid is then brought to below its critical point for a period of time sufficient to dissociate the additive from the fluid, so that the additive is deposited within the pore structure of the abrasive article.

A method is provided for fabricating an abrasive article having porosity. The method includes blending a mixture of abrasive grain, bond material, and pore inducer, in which the pore inducer is soluble in a supercritical fluid, and the abrasive grain and bond material are substantially insoluble in the supercritical fluid. The mixture is pressed into an abrasive laden composite and exposed to the supercritical fluid for a period of time suitable to dissolve at least a portion of the pore inducer. The composite is thermally processed.
