Abstract
In the present article, we showed the effect of ultrasonic treatment on the thermal oxidation of detonation nanodiamonds (DNDs) by considering the kinetic aspect of their thermal stability in the air, in the framework of the classical Arrhenius approach. Nanostructures and surface chemistry of the pristine, ultrasonicated, and oxidized DNDs were studied by miscellaneous physical techniques to clarify the origin of the effect. Ultrasonic treating decreases the heterogeneity of aggregated nanoparticles and removes admixtures and non-diamond carbon from the surface interface of nanodiamond grains. After thermal oxidation that followed ultrasonication treatment, the size-reduction of nanodiamond crystals caused the annihilation of nitrogen-vacancy centers and led to photoluminescence quenching. Because the number of surface defects reacting with air oxygen decreases after the ultrasonic treatment, the thermal stability of DND nanopowders towards oxidative treatment shows an increase.
