Due to the use of negative oxygen balance explosives to synthesize the obtained nanometer-scale diamond, not only has the comprehensive excellent properties inherent in diamond, but also has the singular characteristics of nanomaterials. Therefore, it is concerned by the majority of engineering and technical experts, especially its application in different technical fields. This article will provide an overview of the progress and effectiveness of nanodiamond applications in some areas. To demonstrate its important role and potential prospects for the improvement of traditional technology.

Nano-diamond is an industrial diamond with abnormal particle size and shape. The particle size of such diamond is between 0.5 and 10 nm, the average size is about 4 to 5 nm, and most of the particles are between 2 and 8 nm.
In view of the unique round particles of nano-diamond, it not only has the hardness and wear resistance of diamond, but also has super-lubricating properties.

Therefore, it has been applied in the fields of polishing, lubrication, plating, etc., and has achieved initial success.

1, super fine polishing

Polishing is a traditional field of diamond applications, and even today, polishing, including superfinishing, is still one of the most important aspects of instrumentation and mechanical manufacturing processes. However, the commonly used abrasive sizes are greater than 0.1 μm (100 nm), and the nano-diamond is not only high in hardness, but also has a particle size smaller than an order of magnitude than the best abrasive, and the carbon surface is highly susceptible to chemical change, and Compatible with any polar medium, this feature makes it possible for nanodiamond particles to be evenly distributed in the carrier. Therefore, nanodiamond particles are regarded as a new generation of ideal abrasives for ultra-fine polishing. It is worth noting that the polishing system containing nanodiamonds has The following advantages:

(1) Ultra-fine size nanodiamonds ensure minimum surface roughness and stability of the polishing system colloid;
(2) The chemical stability of nanodiamonds, which can be chemically used for the reduction of active additives and polishing systems in polishing systems;
(3) Reduce the component of the polished surface material and reduce the loss of material;
(4) Due to the ion exchange and adsorption activities of nanodiamonds, the activity of ions and molecular products on the surface thereof can be reduced;
(5) The agglomerate structure of the nano-diamond agglomerates is advantageous for the regulation of coalescence in the suspension polishing system and is non-toxic;
(6) Polishing system containing nano-diamond can improve the quality and competition of polishing products to ensure the processing of difficult-to-machine materials.

2, lubrication

Lubrication is closely related to the operation of mechanical equipment. Some people visually compare the lubricating oil to the blood of mechanical equipment. It can be said that if lubrication is lost, there is no mechanical equipment.

Efficient and reasonable lubrication technology is the basic measure to ensure and improve the energy-saving, high-efficiency and long-term normal operation of mechanical equipment. It is the lifeblood of mechanical transportation and the application science for the development of national economy and people's welfare. Without efficient and reasonable lubrication technology, there is no advanced mechanical operation, and there is no possibility of advanced production and economic prosperity. Therefore, all industrial countries attach great importance to the research and popularization of advanced and reasonable lubrication technology.

At present, the effective utilization of mechanical energy in the world is only about 30% on average. According to the calculations of Professor Roggeur of Germany, the loss of 1P3 to 1P2 in the world's energy production is in friction and wear, while Professor Gonster of the United Kingdom points out that the world consumes 30 energy. % to 40% is consumed in friction loss, and dry friction is harmful from the viewpoint of equipment lubrication. Mainly manifested in the loss of energy and the wear and tear of the parts.

Due to the extremely high hardness of diamond, the free grinding of the sharp surface on the friction surface and the rapid removal of the uneven peaks on the surface of the friction pair are extremely precise grinding and polishing processes, which cannot be achieved by ordinary machining. This action causes the contact area between the friction pairs to increase rapidly, speeding up the running-in process and improving the running-in precision. The spherical and quasi-spherical particles of the nanodiamond are embedded in the contact dimples between the friction pairs. It has excellent bearing capacity, the friction surface forms a ball bearing effect, exhibits good lubricity, turns sliding friction into rolling friction, and reduces frictional resistance, avoiding the occurrence of dry grinding. Two examples are presented here to illustrate the important role that nanodiamonds play in lubrication.

Studies by Daniel Kamman and Vitaly Komarov show that the use of core and shell diamonds conforms to traditional lubricants, reducing wear, friction and friction temperatures, and increasing the load and service life of equipment components.

The biggest difference with other oil additives is that it can be immediately effective and has good durability. After the addition, the sound of the engine will be quiet immediately, and the sound changes of the old machine and the diesel engine will be more obvious. The durability of the oil after the addition was tested in accordance with the US Army Standard (MTL) lubricant evaluation method. The results show that there are significant differences compared to conventional lubricants such as molybdenum disulfide, organic molybdenum, and fluororesin.

3. Composite plating of nano diamond

The composite of materials is an inevitable trend of material development. With the development of modern industry, mechanical parts need to work under complex and engraved conditions and environments, and higher and higher requirements are put on the surface properties of materials. As an effective surface modification measure, surface coating technology has emerged and is widely used.

However, for some cylinders, piston rings, molds, crankshafts, bearings, etc., which are mainly due to contact fatigue or high temperature wear, a single coating has been difficult to meet. Studies have shown that the composite coating can effectively improve the bonding strength between the coating and the substrate, improve the distribution of stress in the coating and the direction of crack propagation, and obtain some special and excellent properties. Therefore, composite coatings have become one of the research hotspots in the field of surface engineering.

However, the solid particles (diamond, silicon carbide, etc.) in the composite plating film are both in the millimeter and micron order, and the finer the solid particles in the plating solution, the better the dispersibility of the particles in the composite plating layer, and the more obvious the strengthening effect of the plating layer. Therefore, nanodiamonds have advantages. Because it not only has the super hard, high anti-wear, heat and anti-corrosion properties of diamond, but also has rich functional groups such as hydroxyl, carboxyl and carbonyl on the surface of the particles, which has strong binding force with the plated surface, the dosage is small, and the performance is improved significantly. It is very suitable for composite plating, not only for metal surfaces, but also for the coating of rubber, plastic, glass and other surfaces.

It is understood that the annual metal corrosion loss in the world is about 150 billion US dollars. China's annual loss is 150 billion yuan, and metal plating is one of the solutions. China's electrolytic plating industry has reached more than 15,000, but the technology is similar, the level is low, the combination of wear-resistant corrosion degree and substrate is poor, and the pollution is large, which is a traditional industry that needs to be upgraded.

In recent years, the use of foreign nano-diamond composite plating film additives has begun to be effective, but it is expensive. Our nano-diamond electrolytic plating film additive has strong affinity with the substrate and its wear resistance is superior to that of foreign products. The price is only 60% of the foreign price, and has begun to replace the import. We have made a rough estimate. For example, the surface of electrolytic plating reaches 300 million square meters per year, the thickness of the plating layer is calculated as 5μm, and the nano diamond powder is required per square. 1 gram, a total of 30,000 tons of nano-diamond composite coating additive is required, equivalent to 600,000 kilograms of nano-diamond.

China's current annual output of 2 billion, will reach 3 billion in 2005, mainly supporting automobiles, motorcycles, home appliances, mining machinery, textile machinery, shipbuilding and precision machine tools, military and export, and urgently need nano-composite plating process upgrade.

The market for mold plating and plastic and glass decorative plating in China is huge, and the prospect of nano-diamond composite plating is broad.

Nano-diamond metal composite plating has the following properties: high wear resistance and microhardness; high corrosion resistance and small porosity; very low friction coefficient; high cohesion and adhesion; The ability to spread, therefore, has caused great interest and concern from engineering and technical experts. The application of nano-diamond metal composite plating will lead to innovations in electrochemical and electroless plating techniques.

The beta radiation produced by carbon 14 (C14) in radioactive graphite improves the performance of the thermionic diamond energy converter. If C14 in the energy converter can be fully utilized, it will provide a more economical method for the treatment of radioactive graphite in retired nuclear reactors. These materials can be used as a raw material for a new type of thermionic energy converter, called the "β-enhanced thermionic diamond converter" (BTDC).
