While natural diamond mining dominates global supply, laboratory grown diamonds produced through High Pressure High Temperature (HPHT) synthesis are emerging as a significant source for the diamond industry and market. Let's examine some key aspects shaping the HPHT landscape: Major Producers -   Read More>

The two primary methods of producing diamonds in a laboratory setting are chemical vapor deposition (CVD) and high pressure, high temperature (HPHT) synthesis. This article will examine the key differences between these approaches to growing diamonds artificially: CVD ProcessDiamonds crystallized by   Read More>

While High Pressure High Temperature diamonds are making their biggest impact in jewelry currently, their unique and tunable chemical properties open up a wide array of industrial and technological applications: Abrasives - HPHT nano-diamonds outperform other abrasives given their extreme hardne   Read More>

While lab-created diamonds have only recently entered public consciousness, their origins trace back to the middle of the 20th century. This article will provide a high-level overview of the major milestones that catalyzed the genesis of lab diamond production as we know it today. As far back as   Read More>

Diamond creation using High Pressure High Temperature (HPHT) technology emulates the conditions under which diamonds naturally form in the earth’s mantle. By applying extreme heat and pressure, the atoms in source materials rearrange themselves into diamond’s iconic tetrahedral crystal lattice str   Read More>
