Carbonyl iron
Carbonyl iron is indispensable in production process of industrial synthetic diamonds (under high temperature and high pressure) to produce high-quality diamonds. The homogeneity and high chemical purity of Sintez-CIP products are important parameters in making diamond processes stable.
The company offers five different grades, and has a wide range of products to meet the needs of customers.
Manufacturer introduction
Sintez-CIP is a Russian global carbonyl iron producer having sales networks in more than 20 countries in North America, South America, Europe, and Southeast Asia.
Sintez-CIP products are widely used in various industries, such as automobile, home appliance, electronic equipment, civil engineering construction, quarrying, food, and medicine.
Carbonyl iron produced by Sintez-CIP is used for advanced applications, such as metal injection molding, diamond tool manufacturing, electromagnetic components, interference shielding materials, synthetic diamonds, and press sintering.

Metallic parts manufactured by MIM (metal injection molding) technique with Sintez-CIP carbonyl iron can have a complicated shape and strong mechanical properties. Products made by MIM technique have mechanical and physical properties equal to those of products made by a conventional metalworking process.
