Diamond Is No Longer The Hardest Material On The Planet – Meet Q Carbon

[etienne_marais]

It is a well-known fact that diamond is the hardest material on the planet. However, diamond lost its status of the hardest substance when scientists at the North Carolina State University discovered a new, harder-than-diamond form of carbon.

The research team found a new phase of carbon, called the Q-carbon.

Wait till Q-carbon meets Zumas head.

I bet Q-Carbon would loose against a 1 week old bowl of weetbix

Maby this is the hardest material on earth for public use just like diamond and for industrial. But the real known hardest yet is -Lonsdaleite csystal, this miniral is very rare in our planet they only found this from a meteorite crash thats why this miniral not found in "our periodic table. -2nd is Boron nitride soon to be the shield of NASA for space travel.

Do you even anal Bro?

Hmmm, that is ridiculous. Diamond is also not found on the periodic table, and lonsdaleite is also a crystal of carbon.

Boron nitride is not harder than diamond, and in its cubic form is already used in industry - you cam buy CBN tools just like you can buy Diamond tools.
