The Characteristics Of Diamonds

1. Strong hardness. Diamond has a Mohs hardness of 10, which is the hardest natural substance found by mankind to date. It is 140 times that of red and sapphire and 1000 times that of crystal. It can resist the abrasion and scratches of all materials. Therefore: Diamonds can be passed on for generations in one day.

2. Toughness refers to the ability of a material to resist fracture. Diamond has a higher toughness, but its

The edges are rather brittle, so avoid direct collision with hard objects when wearing it.

3. Diamond is one of the materials with the strongest heat conduction ability among known materials (diamond is 146.5 watts/m.°C), which is five times that of copper. This "property makes diamonds in the industry, especially

It is widely used in the aerospace industry and microelectronics industry.

4. Diamond has a high dispersion rate of 0.044. This is also one of all natural colorless gems

Most. Diamonds can therefore disperse white light into a spectrum of rainbow colors.

5. The refractive index of diamond is 2.417, which is the highest among all natural colorless gemstones, allowing light to enter

After entering the diamond, it can converge towards the center.

6. Diamonds have high chemical stability. Acids, alkalis and general chemicals are unlikely to have any corrosive effect on diamonds. Some jewelers tell customers that they should not use acids and others when cleaning and maintaining diamonds. Strong detergent cleaning, in fact, this is no scientific basis.
