In addition to being an abrasive, 17 applications of diamond part 2

When we mention the use of diamond, we should think of making abrasive tools. In fact, it has a wide range of applications, friends, come and have a look~In addition to being an abrasive, 17 applications of diamond part 2.

 

The diamond coatings used in large quantities for industrial production are constructed according to the customer and the specific application, because each tool manufacturer has its own requirements for the performance of its tools. The required tool life or feed rate can only be achieved with a high-quality and perfectly adapted diamond coating. In some applications it is possible to improve performance by more than 500% in this way compared to uncoated tools. For example, 90 holes can be drilled with an uncoated tool and 500 holes can be drilled with a coated tool without failure. Even the high tolerances required by aircraft manufacturers up to class H8 can be achieved with diamond coating.

Diamond coating is the most ideal coating for well-developed drilling or milling tools, so it is an important component in the complete tool "concept", or in other words: "Diamond coating is the best for aircraft manufacturers. friend".

 

The developed new diamond table not only combines all the advantages of the previous artificial table, but also has brighter surface color, better gloss and cleanliness, and almost zero chance of cracking. Compared with artificial table, it has higher hardness, high temperature resistance, acid and alkali resistance, The superior characteristics of environmental protection and non-toxicity.

The quartz content of the new diamond countertop is as high as 93%. Quartz crystal is a natural mineral whose hardness is second only to diamond in nature. Its surface hardness can be as high as 81 or more Barcol, which is much larger than the knives, shovels and other sharp tools used in the kitchen, and will not be scratched hurt. The heat generated by gas stoves, oil pans, etc. will not cause any direct damage to the diamond surface. It has high temperature resistance characteristics unmatched by other countertops, so that it avoids dents and burnt spots caused by high temperature.

Diamond is a dense and non-porous composite material that is consistent on the outside and inside. Its quartz surface has excellent corrosion resistance to acid and alkali in the kitchen. Colored liquids such as soy sauce and vinegar used in daily use will not penetrate into the interior of the countertop. Daily cleaning only needs to be rinsed with clean water. Even after a long period of use, its surface is as bright as a newly installed countertop without maintenance and maintenance.

 

The key to this technology is quantum cryptography, which uses optical fibers to transmit information one photon at a time. Synthetic diamonds can be grown with defects that meet this single-photon requirement. Because the quantum state cannot be copied, users know immediately if someone is eavesdropping on the message.

 

Heriot-Watt University in Edinburgh, Scotland, has selected a diamond-coated substrate as the reactor wall material because of its unique ability to withstand the heat generated by next-generation nuclear reactors. In addition, diamond's ability to resist axial radiation and its chemical stability in a hydrogen plasma environment are also important reasons why diamond has become the material of choice.

"We believe that we are entering an era in which the performance of diamonds has been exploited, and diamonds will become the best choice in more and more fields," said Dwain Aidala from SP3 in the United States. "Our 650 hot wire CVD The main reason for the adoption of diamond deposition equipment is that it can deposit diamond films on a large area and at low cost, the deposition thickness can be selected between 200nm and 50μm, and the diameter can reach 300mm.”

 

Doxorubicin is a common chemotherapy agent. When injected directly into the tumor, it acts as a drug to treat the tumor. Dean of the UC School of Dentistry created a compound called ND-DOX by attaching doxorubicin molecules to the surface of nanodiamonds.

The study found that the ND-DOX water of the tumor remained stable more than doxorubicin alone, showing that the doxorubicin attached to the nanodiamond entered the tumor and remained longer. It was also found that ND-DOX increased cancer cell death and decreased glioma cell viability.

The study shows for the first time that ND-DOX transports limited amounts of doxorubicin, dispersed outside the tumor. This mode of delivery reduces toxic side effects and ensures that the drug stays in the tumor for a longer period of time, increasing the effectiveness of the drug in killing the tumor without affecting surrounding tissues.

 

Twister is a revolutionary cleaning system consisting of a series of disc cleaning pads, each impregnated with hundreds of millions of microscopic diamond particles and cured so that they can be cleaned mechanically rather than chemically The way to clean and polish the floor.

The Hybrid system brings new life to damaged and worn natural stone and terrazzo surfaces. It's easy to use, environmentally friendly, and an effective tool for removing blemishes, scratches and orange peel imperfections using just normal floor cleaning machinery and water.
