Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the difference between HPHT and CVD diamond plates?
A: HPHT (High Pressure High Temperature) diamonds are grown by mimicking natural conditions, often resulting in yellow or white crystals. CVD (Chemical Vapor Deposition) diamonds are grown from a gas phase, allowing for larger plate sizes and specific optical or electronic grades.
Q: Can these diamonds pass a standard diamond tester?
A: Yes, these are real synthetic diamonds with a Mohs hardness of 10. They possess the same physical and chemical properties as natural diamonds and will pass a standard diamond test pen.
Q: What are the primary industrial applications for these plates?
A: They are widely used for non-ferrous and non-metallic cutting tools, wheel dressers, speciality knives, burnishing tools, wire drawing dies, and optical windows.
Q: Are customized sizes and shapes available?
A: Yes, we provide customization for both CVD and HPHT plates, including specific thicknesses from 0.1mm to 3mm and various geometric shapes based on your technical designs.
Q: What surface finishes are offered?
A: We offer several surface finishes including "As Grown" (unprocessed), Laser Cut, Polished (with flatness < 1 fringes), and Lapped finishes depending on your precision requirements.
Q: What is the thermal stability of these diamonds?
A: These synthetic mono-crystal diamonds feature great thermal stability and high impact resistance, making them ideal for high-speed machining and demanding industrial environments.
