Section 1: The Science Behind Cremation Diamonds
1.1 Carbon Extraction & Purification
- Cat Ashes: Contain 1–3% carbon, concentrated in bone fragments.
- Purification Process:
- Acid Treatment: Hydrochloric acid dissolves minerals (calcium, magnesium).
- High-Temperature Calcination: Heating to 2,500°C in argon chambers isolates 99.99% pure carbon.
- Graphitization: Compressed into sheets for diamond synthesis.
1.2 Diamond Growth Technologies
- HPHT (High-Pressure High-Temperature):
- Process: Mimics Earth’s mantle (60 kilobars, 1,500°C) to create blue, yellow, or green diamonds in 8–16 weeks.
- Best For: Vibrant colors and larger sizes (0.25–2.0 carats).
- CVD (Chemical Vapor Deposition):
- Process: Ionizes methane gas to grow colorless or pink diamonds layer-by-layer in 6–12 weeks.
- Best For: Pristine clarity and smaller sizes (0.10–1.00 carat).
1.3 Jewelry Crafting
- Materials: 14K/18K gold, platinum, or sterling silver settings.
- Custom Designs: Options include paw-print pendants, heart-shaped rings, or engraved nameplates.
