PROPERTIES Transparent crystal of tetrahedrally bonded carbon atoms and crystallizes into the face centered cubic diamond lattice structure. Most notable are its extreme hardness, High dispersion index Extremely high thermal conductivity (900 – 2320 W/m K) Melting point of 3820 K (3547 °C / 6420 °F) Boiling point of 5100 K (4827 °C / 8720 °F). Density ranging from 3.15 to 3.53 g/cm³, with very pure diamond typically extremely close to 3.52 g/cm³.

Properties Hardness: Diamond is the hardest natural material known to man: It has a hardness of 10 (hardest) on Mohs scale of mineral hardness Electrical conductivity: Use as semiconductors Toughness: The toughness of natural diamond has been measured as 3.4 MN m -3/2,which is good compared to other gemstones, but poor compared to most engineering materials. Color: Diamonds can occur in nearly any color, though yellow and brown are by far the most common

APPLICATIONS INDUSTRIAL APPLICATIONS Employed in drill tips and saw blades Precision Instruments Ground into a powder for use in grinding and polishing applications. Use in specialized windows

APPLICATIONS OTHER APPLICATIONS Jewelry Use in laboratories for high pressure experiments High Performance bearings FUTURE APPLICATIONS Use as a semiconductor to build microchips from or use as a heat sink in electronics. Super electronics Indomitable optical windows, Unscratchable surfaces - maybe the next watch bezel - diamond is an obvious choice.
