Zirconia
Zirconia Today is the most popular diamond alternative because of its affordability and similarity to diamonds. It was used as a substitute for diamonds since 1970. We are closer to the likeness of Gem Diamonds. At a fraction of the cost, which has created a lot and trendy jewelry and fashion in general.
What is Cubic Zirconia
Zirconia is zirconium oxide crystallized in its form. Must be made to appear transparent, as a rule, asThis is the closest equivalent to diamonds.
History
Zirconium oxide is white, like the 1800, in baddeleyite. It 'was a rare mineral in nature, and the first attempt, was created artificially produced in France in 1960. However, it was in 1973 that a perfect form of zirconia in the former Soviet Union was created by a method of production as Skull Crucible. The initial goal was to develop a substance that will be used as part of laser technology,But the end product was a wonderful looking crystals very similar in appearance to diamonds. Zirconia has been trading since then.
Today, CZ is created as a substance with a crystalline structure in the method of production.
Features
Crystals of zirconia are very similar to diamonds, both in appearance and practical use. As the natural diamond, CZ is an isometric crystal structure. Both materials have a high refractive index and highDispersions, which influence both in terms of the manner in which the light when it passes through them. In terms of hardness, CZ is a little 'softer than diamond. As for the color, CZ, like real diamonds can be produced in various colors.
Difference between the real diamonds
The most striking difference between cubic zirconia and diamonds is that the first is synthetic and has a perfectly smooth. The latter usually have some natural defects and costTo produce quantity. This unequal distribution of production is reflected in its huge price difference. In terms of features, CZ weighs 1.7 times more than diamonds of equal size, and is virtually zirconium oxide, while the diamonds are mostly carbon. Because it is chemically different, CZ is cut usually with different facets in a diamond shape, and respond to a different mode of heat, ie thermal buffer CZ diamonds, while the function of Head ofHeat.
The cost associated is the reputation. Namely, since the cost of their preparation and their scarcity, the diamonds are attractive and it seems almost a social status, in those days.
However, due to its price and the inability to understand the difference with the naked eye, Cubic Zirconia is gaining in popularity, and I've seen in recent years a significant growth in their demand, as a result of increased environmental awareness among consumers.
