Currently, the production technology and process level of the Diamond Micro Powder industry are continuously improving, and the production process is gradually becoming automated. At the same time, with the development needs of cutting-edge technology and high-end manufacturing industries, there are varying requirements for the performance of Diamond Micro Powder. At present, a few manufacturers can produce different types of Diamond Micro Powder according to their uses. In the future, the Diamond Micro Powder industry will develop towards precision, specialization, and functionality.
Due to the application, research and development, and process improvements of new energy, new materials, and new technologies in the field of diamond tool manufacturing, related fields have put forward differentiated requirements for the performance of their processing tools. The market space for specialized and customized Diamond Micro Powder is gradually expanding. The industry has developed specialized Diamond Micro Powder for composite sheets, wire saws, etc.
Particle size classification is an important process in the production of Diamond Micro Powder. Currently, automated grading equipment is widely used, but it lacks online particle size detection functions, making it impossible to achieve more intelligent continuous production. With the continuous development of the micropowder industry, fully automated equipment with fast sorting speed, high precision, and low labor costs will become mainstream in the future.
Diamond Micro Powder has high strength, hardness, wear resistance, and chemical inertness, and is widely used in precision grinding and polishing processes. However, Diamond Micro Powder can easily clump together due to impurities, moisture, magnetism, static electricity, etc., which can cause scratches on workpieces during the polishing of semiconductors, optical lenses, and other precision parts, affecting the application of ultra-fine Diamond Micro Powder in precision polishing fields.
To refine the structure of Diamond Micro Powder, improve the self-sharpening of grinding tools, effectively reduce cutting damage, and improve surface processing quality, the continuous transformation and upgrading of the downstream market have put forward higher requirements for the particle size, impurities, morphology, and surface performance of Diamond Micro Powder. The development directions for Diamond Micro Powder include concentrated particle size, impurity content of less than 50 ppm, better roundness of morphology, and surface coating or functional group treatments.
Due to its biocompatibility, non-toxicity, and chemical stability, diamond has a broad market space in the biomedical field. Nano-diamond is highly compatible with biological systems and is suitable as a surface wear-resistant coating for artificial bones and joints. Because it does not stick to the skin, it can also be used as an inner protective layer of surgical dressings. It is favored in biomedical fields such as bioimaging, drug delivery, gene therapy, cancer diagnosis and treatment. The import volume of nano-diamond from China to developed countries in related fields is growing rapidly each year. Promoting the application of nano-diamond in the biomedical field and other areas will become a high-end development direction for the industry in the future.
