Our Nanogem is the glass-ceramic nanocrystal material with nano sized (10¯⁹ m ) crystals of spinel and other minerals in an aluminosilicate glass matrix. It has unique physical and optical properties: homogeneous and even color, high density (3-3,3 g/cm³), luster (RI=1,61-1,64) and melting temperature (>1650 C°). It is successfully can be used during wax-casting technology…
Nanogem or Nanocrystal®, which is another patented name of the same material, refers to a class of transparent glass-ceramics. Nanogems chemically are the high-temperature alumosilicates (the chemical composition is a mixture of oxides: SiO2, Al2O3, MgO, Li2O,…). This so-called hybrid material is composed of nanosized (about 10ˉ⁹ mm in dimensions) crystals of spinel, sapphirine, cordierite,…
Nanocrystal® – is 100% LEAD free material. It also complies with all EUROPEAN/USA Standards All colors are compliant with these limitation: We can provide Intertek or SGS Lab results if necessary to prove that Nanocrystal® is safe material to use Nickel Release < 500 ppm Cadmium < 75 ppm Lead < 200 ppm Arsenic…
Glass looks fake and is of low hardness, color also can fade away with time Cubic Zirconia (CZ) has too high brilliance i.e. RI, which is why it’s still the best affordable imitation of Natural Diamond. But it’s not perfect for imitating Natural Color Stones… besides color is fading over time. Synthetic Corundum and Created…
Only 2-3 World known Laboratories in the World has the equipment to trace nanosized 10⁻⁹ crystals of created Spinel, Sapphirine and other synthetic minerals inside of this material. These crystals are the ones that give this material special specific properties. Regular Laboratory will simply identify it as Regular Artificial Glass. Which is not exactly correct.…
High thermal shock resistance makes Nanocrystal® ideally compatible with wax casting technology. Yes, Absolutely all colors of Nanogems can be set in Wax Casting without any problem. If STANDARD procedures that usually followed in this process are considered.
It is a Hybrid of Glass and Synthetic Minerals. We took the best properties from both materials and combine them together. From Glass: Even, Homogeneous Color in every stone. From Synthetic Minerals – Relatively Higher Hardness Index 7-7.5 MO’S, Density and not fragile properties in compare to regular Glass.
