cubic zirconia (mineral, inorganic material, ... Materials (hierarchy name)) |
|
Note: The cubic crystalline form of zirconium dioxide (ZrO2). As a synthetic gem it is often used as an inexpensive replacement for a diamond. Color most often ranges from white to light yellow and brown, but as a synthetic, can be produced in a large variety of colors. Its refractive index and colour dispersion are fairly close to the diamond, but its hardness is lower and its specific gravity much higher.

Additional Notes: |
|
| Dutch ..... Een synthetische edelsteen en simulant voor een diamant. De kleur varieert van wit tot lichtgeel en bruin. De brekingsindex en kleurspreiding liggen redelijk dicht bij die van diamant, maar de hardheid is lager en het soortelijk gewicht veel hoger. |
