Preparation of silica-coated ultrafine diamond and dispersion in ceramic matrix
2013
Abstract Silica-coated ultrafine diamond (UFD/SiO 2 ) composites were prepared, which were core/shell structures with amorphous silica shell of approximately 5 nm thickness. Contrasting to the pristine UFDs, the dispersion stability of the UFD/SiO 2 composites was improved greatly in the multi-component inorganic salts aqueous solution, and the chemical compositions of the ceramic matrix were introduced by multi-component inorganic salts. Meanwhile, the oxidation resistance temperature of the coated UFDs was also increased by around 101.0 °C. Furthermore, by using the polyacrylamide gel method and hot-press sintering process, ceramic composites were fabricated with the UFD/SiO 2 aqueous suspension containing multi-component inorganic salts. The results indicated that the UFDs coated with silica could be dispersed uniformly in ceramic matrix, where no obvious UFD agglomerates were observed.
