Nanodiamonds: Advanced Material Analysis, Properties and
Applications illustrates the complementarity of specific techniques
to fully characterize nanodiamonds from their diamond core
(crystalline structure, defects, sp2 carbon, impurities, strain) to
their surface (surface chemistry, stability of surface groups,
reactivity, surface charge, colloidal properties). The relationship
between physical and chemical parameters sits at the heart of what
this book is about. Recent advances in the synthesis of
nanodiamonds either by HPHT or detonation are covered, along with
extended characterization of the core and surface of nanodiamonds,
focusing on the most advanced experimental tools developed for
nanoscale diagnosis. Each technique presented includes presentation
of both principles and applications. This combination of advanced
characterizations offers readers a better understanding of the
relationship that exists between physical and chemical parameters
of nanodiamonds and their properties. In particular, the role of
structural defects or chemical impurities is illustrated. Toxicity
of nanodiamonds for cells is also discussed, as It is an essential
issue for their bioapplications. Final sections in the book cover
the main promising new advances and applications of nanodiamonds,
the formation of hybrids, and their use in polymer and oil
composites.
