Diamonds are the hardest thing on earth? | Knowing Wurtzite Boron Nitride
HI EVERYONE!
The question that again invites a question mark, is there anything harder on earth than diamonds?
If you have a girlfriend or looking at women's clothing, you will know that diamonds are one type of their jewelry.
Not only now, but it is generally known that diamonds are the hardest material on earth. Because it is too hard, it is very difficult for us if we want to scratch diamonds, even if only a few scratches.
Then, if the diamond is the hardest object, then now its position has been replaced with Wurtzite Boron Nitride. Intrigued by its name, like the name of a chemical compound.
Wurtzite Boron Nitride
This material ranks first for the category of the hardest objects in the world, at least for now. These are boron and nitrogen refractory compounds with the BN chemical formula.
This material has good resistance, so the manufacture of ceramics from this material can be used as a part to survive at high temperatures.
Why can wurtzite be the hardest thing in the world? it is caused by the basic element of wurtzite, it is created from unusually hot temperatures. In addition, very high pressure also makes it hard, caused by volcanic eruptions.

Diamond shifted in the third position
Besides Wurtzite Boron Nitride, there are 9 more ingredients, which have a high hard level, I will order them from the loudest to the softer ones:
- Wurtzite Boron Nitride
- Lonsdaleite
- Diamond
- Borazon
- Boron Carbide
- Rhenium Diboride
- Titanium Diboride
- Titanium Carbide
- Zirconium Carbide
- Alumina
Steemians... That is the strongest material on earth, of course, it has shifted the position of diamonds as we know before... If you have a different opinion, please comment.
