Synthetic Diamond Compounds
MICRO FINISH SELECTOR | TERMINOLOGY | MESH | MICRON
The two most important properties effecting the performance of diamond compound are:
- The diamond powder within the vehicle
- The carrier of the vehicle
The principle aim of a carrier in a diamond compound is to suspend each particle of diamond uniformly without agglomeration and carrier separation while withstanding pressure and temperatures that occur during the various lapping processes.
How should a good diamond compound perform?
- It must be impervious to any contaminants related to the lapping surface
- It must remove friction-generated heat
- It should be non-toxic and easy to use
- It should be easy to clean using conventional techniques
- The carrier must be residue free
We manufacture carriers that can be classified into three categories: oil soluble, water soluble, and water/oil soluble.
Last but not least concentration: The carat weight in each gram of compound. We have been monitoring for decades the effects of different concentrations. Simply, we have proven it is light, medium and heavy concentrations that have reached the
proof of excellence.
