40% harder Than natural diamonds: Chinese scientists synthesize ‘super diamond’
The synthetic hexagonal diamond exhibits high thermal stability up to 1,100°C and a hardness of 155 GPa, promising advancements in aerospace and defense industries.
Scientists engineer ultra-hard synthetic diamond from graphite
Most natural and synthetic diamonds feature a cubic lattice structure but there are rare exceptions. Lonsdaleite, for example, is a type of diamond that was first
Chinese scientists make rare, ultra-hard, pure ‘super diamond’ in the lab
The first ultra-hard diamond was found in the Canyon Diablo meteorite in Arizona in 1967. Scientists have struggled to recreate lonsdaleite in the laboratory but now, a team of Chinese researchers have engineered a way to synthesise “well-crystallised, nearly pure” hexagonal diamonds from graphite.
New lab grown 'super diamond' created by scientists is the strongest ever
Chinese scientists have created a ‘super diamond’ 40% harder and far more durable than natural ones. Experts say the creation could lead to breakthroughs across several key industries that rely on diamonds,
