Diamond is hardest Diamond cuts glass Glass does not cut diamond
Any diamond can 'cut glass' in the sense that dragging the diamond stone across glass will mar the glass.
Diamond is harder than glass, meaning that it has a higher Mohs hardness scale rating. Consequently, when a glass is used to cut diamond, the glass will simply break or shatter due to the extreme hardness of the diamond. Diamond is the hardest natural material on Earth, while glass is relatively softer compared to diamond.
A diamond will cut glass -- an emerald will not.
Yes, CZ (cubic zirconia) is a man-made material that is almost as hard as a diamond and can scratch glass. However, it is not commonly used to cut glass as it is primarily used as a diamond simulant in jewelry.
see if it cuts glass..any diamond can cut through glass
A diamond will cut glass.
Cut through glass is different from scaring the surface of glass. People who cut glass use a diamond-tipped tool to score the surface of the glass, then they tap the glass with a rubber mallet, which fractures the glass along the line of the score. You could use a diamond-tipped saw to cut through glass, especially if it was a thick plate.
A diamond cuts glass by being drug across the surface of the pane of glass according to the desired pattern. Once so scored, the glass technician will use a rubber mallet to tap one side or the other of the score, to separate the glass into the desired shapes and pieces. A diamond tool is used to cut glass, because diamond is the hardest mineral known.
Yes. Diamond cuts through everything. In fact, diamond is the hardest natural material on Earth. (Diamond or laser can cut diamond.) The question was 'why'... the answer is because it is the most compressed carbon based material.
