Diamonds are divided into two main categories based on their applications: gem-quality and industrial-grade. Their core functions are determined by their physical properties, covering multiple fields including jewelry decoration, industrial processing, and cutting-edge technology:
1. Jewelry Decoration: Gem-quality diamonds, after polishing, become diamonds. With their high refractive index and strong dispersion, they exhibit a brilliant and dazzling fire after polishing, making them a core material for high-end diamond rings, necklaces, and other jewelry, and a symbol of eternal love.
2. Industrial Processing (Ultra-hard Material Applications): Diamond is the hardest natural substance. Its extremely high hardness and wear resistance make it an irreplaceable core material in industrial processing:
Cutting/Drilling Tools: Diamond saw blades, drill bits, and cutting tools can be used to precisely cut brittle and hard materials such as stone, concrete, glass, ceramics, and semiconductors. They are also used in geological exploration, oil and gas drilling, and construction drilling, achieving a cutting accuracy of 0.15-0.2mm when cutting brittle and hard materials. Grinding/Polishing Tools: These tools are used to manufacture diamond grinding wheels, grinding blocks, oilstones, and polishing pastes for grinding and polishing cemented carbide and precision molds, significantly improving workpiece surface quality.
In precision manufacturing, aerospace, and medical device fields, diamond tools enable high-precision cutting, greatly improving machining quality and efficiency.
