Abstract

The effect of evacuation, surfactant, prolonged thermal heating, and irradiation with ultraviolet radiation on free radicals in detonation nanodiamond (DND) powders was studied by electron paramagnetic resonance. A model of a DND particle consisting of a diamond lattice core and a fullerene-like shell with a surface covered by functional groups is established. Most of paramagnetic centers (PC), shielded from the effects of evacuation and surfactant molecules, are localized within the core of particle. About 10 % paramagnetic centers are on the outside of fullerene-like shell. A change is observed in the EPR line shape under these effects, which reflects the change in the distribution of the PC as a whole in DND powders.
