Physicochemical modification of nanodiamonds

Thermal modification of nanodiamonds in the atmosphere of argon and hydrogen and their chemical modification with oleum and chlorine at different temperatures were studied. The effect of the modification conditions on the catalytic activity of palladium catalysts supported by nanodiamonds in the reaction of nitrobenzene hydrogenation and on the adsorption properties of nanodiamonds with respect to benzene, chloroform, and water was analysed.
