Diamantsuspensies voor perfecte metallografische preparatie

QPREP diamond suspensions are the polishing product of choice for materialographic preparations. The range of different chemical bases (water, alcohol, or oil) allows scratch-free polishing, depending on the application. 

QPREP diamond suspensions are characterized by

  • A narrow tolerance grain size distribution for a uniform scratch pattern.
  • The optimized diamond concentration for high removal rate and time-saving polishing.
  • Suitable for use with all materials.

The abrasive used is (industrial) diamond, which is divided into monocrystalline and polycrystalline, since different levels of material removal rate are achieved.

Polycrystalline (industrial) diamonds

It consists of a multi-crystal, which breaks into smaller components when used, thus repeatedly creating new cutting edges (self-sharpening effect). This results in a high material removal rate and time-optimized polishing results.

Monocrystalline (industrial) diamonds

It consists of a single crystal that breaks into small slices like a block when used. There is no self-sharpening effect as with polycrystalline diamonds. Due to this, a more material-friendly but also more time-consuming removal rate is achieved during polishing.

QPREP diamond suspensions are used in combination with a lubricant based on water, alcohol, or oil. The right mixing ratio between suspension and lubricant must be observed to achieve correct polishing results. Alternatively, QATM offers the QPREP DIA-Complete All-In-One diamond suspension. It contains the lubricant in an optimized ratio, which eliminates the need for manual dosing and mixing of suspension and lubricant.
