EAC compliance and declaration are the responsibility of the importer. DIAMTECH provides full technical documentation support: COA (particle size distribution, impurity analysis), MSDS, and product specifications to facilitate your EAC process.
Particle-size report (COA)
Every batch ships with the partner factory report, re-verified by DIAMTECH. Sample on the Certificates page.
From coarse synthetic-diamond grain to micron powder of the required fraction.
01
Raw material — coarse grain
Large yellow grains of synthetic diamond (macrogrit / grinding powder) are the starting material.
02
Crushing
The coarse grains are crushed — the result is black diamond micron powder.
03
Classification and sieving
The powder passes through several size-separation stages — each stage yields a finer fraction.
04
Finished product by fraction
The finished micron powder is supplied by grain-size fraction (W5, W10, W20 and others).

How to choose diamond micron powder
What is diamond micron powder
Diamond micron powder is an abrasive material made of synthetic diamonds ranging from 0.1 to 60 μm, produced by sedimentation. Used for diamond tools, pastes and suspensions, polishing hard alloys, ceramics, glass and semiconductors.
How to choose grain size
Coarse fractions (40/28, 28/20) — rough processing and cutting; medium (20/14, 14/10) — grinding; fine (7/5, 5/3, 3/2, 1/0) — lapping and polishing. For PCD composites, use narrow fractions with D50 control.
ACM vs ACH — what is the difference
ACM — normal abrasive ability, ACH — increased. ACH is stronger and lasts longer at the same grain size, ACM is more economical for most operations.

DIAMTECH is a diamond trading and sourcing company, not a factory. We work directly with the Henan cluster, selecting and comparing products across plants and matching the best partner plant for each batch.
Which grades and fractions are available?
SCMD range: AAA (made to spec), AA, A, B, C. Fractions W40–W0.1. Standard W5/W10/W20 are kept in stock and common fractions ship from stock within 48 hours.
What is the minimum order quantity?
Standard micron powder from 1 kg, suspensions from 5 L. The minimum for a custom fraction is 10 kg. Send us your requirement by email and we will confirm the exact MOQ for your case.
How is pricing calculated, and what are the volume terms?
Prices are not published on this site. Cost depends on grade, particle fraction, quantity and delivery terms, and is confirmed by inquiry. Describe your requirement by email and we will send a quotation.
Is an export licence required for shipments to Russia?
Fractions ≤50 μm fall under Chinese control code 2C902.a. Under China Announcement No. 55, enforcement is suspended until 2026-11-10, so no licence is required within that window. Conditions change after the window, so check the status for your shipment date.
Which quality documents are available?
A COA is issued per batch on request. Test protocols from the Henan Provincial Quality Supervision & Inspection Center for Synthetic Diamond Micron Powder (Zhecheng) — China's only specialized state laboratory for micron powder — or from the National Center are available on request.
Are samples available?
Samples are available, but the sample fee and freight are paid by the buyer (collect); both are credited to the first order. DIAMTECH does not offer free samples.
What are the payment terms?
TT: 30% deposit, balance before shipment. An invoice is provided.
