DiaBond™
DiaBond™ Engineered Diamond Products
DiaBond™ is a family of engineered diamond powders specially designed to improve bonding in metallic matricies, including nickel-, cobalt-, copper-, and aluminum-based binders.
Applications include metal-bond diamond wheels, diamond compacts and cermets, diamond hardfacing products, high conductivity substrates, and other thermal and abrasive products.
DiaBond™ powders are comprised of diamond grains that have been encapsulated with a 1-20 micron coating, selected from cobalt, nickel, chromium, chromium carbide, tungsten, tungsten carbide, copper, aluminum, silicon, or rhenium. These coated diamond powders typically show a three-fold increase in diamond retention, extending life and increasing thermal conductivity and strength of diamond compacts made using Powdermet’s engineered diamond particles.
DiaBond™ powders are engineered using Powdermet’s patented fluidized bed chemical vapor deposition technology. DiaBond™ powders can be produced in grit sizes ranging from micron-sized diamond dust to 30 grit diamond abrasives.
Powdermet offers a wider range of coated diamond powders than our competitors and we are the only manufacturer of rhenium-coated diamond powders specifically designed for nickel and cobalt containing metal binders.
