Dianip C
Increased coefficient of friction
General
DIANIP C is an abrasion-, wear- and friction-resistant coating. The coating is composed of an electroless nickel matrix incorporating fine diamond particles, giving it exceptional tribological properties.
This fine diamond powder, about 2 microns in size, is used to protect mechanical parts subject to high levels of abrasion and friction. Thanks to homogeneous incorporation throughout the thickness of the deposit, the properties of the treatment are retained over time.
Features
DIANIP coatings are composed of DIAMOND single crystals embedded in a CHEMICAL NICKEL matrix. The properties and usefulness of DIANIP coatings depend essentially on the size of the diamond single crystals incorporated.
The perfectly defined size of the embedded diamond single crystals produces surfaces with absolutely even, defined roughness. Co-deposition and coating are carried out chemically, enabling coatings of perfectly even thickness to be produced, without edge effects, and diamond to be co-deposited at any point on a surface, even a complex surface with small internal diameters, provided they are continuous.
