2. Types of Diamond Paste:
The diamond paste can be divided into water soluble and oil soluble.
(1). Water soluble abrasive paste: with low viscosity,easy grinding and high working efficiency, it mainly used for processing non-metallic hard and brittle materials, such as slightly corrosive metal, circuit board, glass, ceramics, gemstone, agate etc.
(2). Oil soluble abrasive paste: with good wettability, low grinding force and heat, it mainly used for processing high fineness carbide and accessories made of high hard alloy materials, instruments, measuring tools, cutting tools and abrasives etc..
3. Features of Diamond Paste:
Diamond paste, also called loose abrasive, is kind of soft abrasive made of diamond powder abrasive and paste binder.
It is used for grinding hard and brittle materials to obtain good surface finish.
