RSYN
type micron diamond
monocrystalline synthetic diamond, standard size range
Appearance
RSYN diamond is light gray to dark gray in color.
Particle structure
RSYN diamond is formed by high-pressure/high-temperature synthesis.
Its monocrystalline structure features major cleavage planes.
Compared with other monocrystalline diamond, RSYN particles break
under relatively weak pressure parallel to the cleavage planes.
Characteristics
RSYN diamond is a "resin-bond" type monocrystalline
diamond. The particles are relatively brittle and fracture at
low pressures. This effect is exploited as a self-sharpening mechanism
in resin-bond tools and diamond films.
RSYN sizes are available on request.
Typical applications
Bonded tools:
- resin-bond grinding tools
- diamond films
