SCM Nano Diamond

About SCM Nano Diamonds

Dia Material develops diamond particles with an average particle size of less than 100 nm (0.1 µ) as ultrafine (nano) diamonds.
As a domestic manufacturer, we pursue a stable supply of nanodiamonds while actively conducting joint research with various industries to develop new applications.
