Abstract:
A simple method of predictive estimation of the yield of detonation nanodiamonds is described, which takes into account the mass fractions of elements in the carbon-containing explosive with a general formula C$_a$ H$_b$ N$_c$ O$_d$. An empirical dependence of the content of detonation nanodiamonds in the semi-product of nanodiamond synthesis (diamond charge mixture) on the fraction of carbon in molecules of explosives is derived. The yield of detonation nanodiamonds is presented as a function of the fractions of chemical elements in the initial system, which makes it possible to give quantitative predictions of the yield of detonation nanodiamonds.
Keywords:detonation nanodiamonds, diamond charge mixture, yield of nanodiamonds, elemental composition of explosives.
