Synthesis of nano- and microparticles using arc discharge in the liquid phase

Abstract The synthesis of carbon nanomaterials and the technique of encapsulated metals into a nanoshell by the electric arc method in a liquid medium will allow imparting synthesis products to various mechanical, electrical, magnetic and other physicochemical properties, thereby making them a “New Generation Material”, which increases their ability for various purposes. This topic is very interesting in that, for example, ferromagnetic carbon nanocomposite structures and their derivatives have unique electrically conductive, magnetic, optical, catalytic and biological properties. Based on them, it is possible to create new superconductors, sensors, electrode materials, catalysts, drugs, etc. As for the uniqueness of magnetic nanomaterials themselves, one of them is that controlling nanoparticles in liquids creates a unique opportunity to remotely control their parameters: pressure, density, electrical conductivity, thermal conductivity, and optical permeability. The creation of nanocomposites based on ferromagnetic nanoparticles and carbon nanostructures will make it possible to take a step towards the creation of new materials, such as various coatings sensitive to electromagnetic radiation of various wavelengths. And this creation of new equipment and protective structures will protect against various types of radiation. That is why the focus is on the study of a new synthesis strategy for ferromagnetic nanoparticles immobilized in a carbon matrix and the study of their structure and magnetic properties.
