Coated particles for synthesizing diamond and process for production of diamond abrasive for sawing

摘要

A coated particle for synthesizing diamond includes: a single crystal of a fine diamond particle coated with at least one layer which contains at least one kind of solvent metal powder for synthesizing diamond and/or at least one kind of solvent metal powder with organic bonding material. Diamond abrasive particles for sawing are produced by a process which includes the steps of: coating fine diamond particles with at least one layer which contains at least one kind of solvent metal powder for synthesizing diamond and/or at least one kind of solvent metal powder with organic bonding material, filling a molding with the coated fine diamond particles, compacting, arranging a compact in a synthesizing vessel, heating the compact to a temperature above a solvent metal- graphite melting point under a pressure condition in which diamond is thermodynamically stable, and recovering the diamond abrasive particles.
