Resin bond micron diamond is a synthetic material with a friable crystal structure intended for use in vitrified and resin bond systems. Crystals are irregular, elongated, rough edged and are suitable for grinding tungsten carbide, ceramics and glasses. The friability or breakdown characteristics of the diamond is a function of its polycrystalline structure and metallic inclusions within the grains. During grinding, grains are microfractured and new edges formed enabling an efficient, free cutting action.
Metal bond diamond is a synthetic material, grown slowly compared to resin bond diamond, resulting in monocrystalline structures with high toughness. The typical blocky crystals are suitable for resin, metal and electroplated bond systems.
