A study was made of the structural features of composite diamond-containing materials (CDMs) of abrasive designation, based on ultrahigh-molecular-weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) and natural diamond powders (NDPs), and their effect on the physicomechanical properties of the composite and the service characteristics of the tool. It was established that the composition of the composite is directly responsible for the parameters of the structure formed. It was shown that an increase in the degree of crystallinity and a reduction in the size of the supermolecular formations of the polymer binder lead to an increase in the physicomechanical and service characteristics of the material.
