Man Made Diamond: How Is A Diamond Made?

By Ann R Taylor

Better known as synthetic diamonds, the man made diamonds are created in the lab using several chemical as well as physical processes. The man made ones resemble the natural ones and cannot be easily distinguished due to the similarity that the both has. But they differ in the three dimensional crystal compositions when compared to the natural ones that are found in its natural three dimensional crystalline structures. You may also know the man made diamonds by several other names such as the artificial, manufactured, cultured, industrial diamonds etc.

Manufactured either from cubic zirconium or silicon carbide, the synthetic diamonds were first created in the 1950s in Sweden by the engineer Anders Kampe and Quintus. Even though it was new to the world at that time, the popularity of man made ones slowly came to be known to many people in the coming years. The nineteenth century witnessed the creation of artificial diamonds in huge number and many companies like the De Beers Industrial Diamonds and GE Super abrasives became leading specialists in manufacturing in their labs. Thus, the history of the creation of artificial models dates back to centuries when the use of synthetic models became popular. Gradually the popularity of artificial ones spread across the world and many countries pioneered in its creation. Now, there are an ample number of companies available dedicated with the creation of synthetic diamonds such as the United States Synthetic Diamond industry, Sumitomo Electric Hard Metal etc. Now, it is possible to create artificial ones of around 3 billion carats every year.What A Hoot!

Basically, synthetic diamonds are manufactured in the labs using two effective methods. One of them is the high pressure and the high temperature method also called the HPHT method wherein heavy pressure of 5 GPA and high temperature of around 1500 degree Celsius is used. A belt press and a cubic press is used in the manufacturing of such diamonds. Chemical Vapor Deposition or CVD is another effective method that is used in creating man made diamonds. Introduced in 1980, this method utilizes various gases along with the apt condition for creating man made diamonds.

Diamond is an allotrope of carbon, which means it only consists of carbon atoms and differs from other carbon allotropes by its structure.

It has a very ordered structure, all the carbon atoms are tetrahedrally bonded. Such a structure makes diamond very stable, that's why its so strong and resistant. Diamond also doesn't conduct electricity, as there are no free electrons in the outer electron shell of the carbon atoms(all are used in bonds).

You can create a diamond out of most carbon substances under very high pressure and at very high temperatures. We could make a diamond out of you as well.
