| Popis: | The resistance of diamond to wear is a strong function of its orientation. The observed facts can be explained by assuming that a scratched diamond surface fails in tension behind the scratching particle. The octahedral cleavage planes are most easily pulled apart and give rise to the strong dependence of wear on crystal orientation. |
