Mechanism of BNр –> BNг transformation in nano- and microtubes

The authors present the first data on the transformation (at T = 1650 K) of the rhombohedral phase of boron nitride into a hexagonal one in faceted tubes. The transition occurs with the participation of basal shifts and the formation of intermediate structures in the form of multilayer polytypes. It is concluded that the development of transformations is due to the relaxation of stresses in the tubes arising in them due to the anisotropy of thermal expansion, which contribute to the development of plastic shifts along (0001) in BNр.

Keywords: boron nitride, modification, synthesis, transformation, multilayer polytypes, deformation, disordering.

Comparative physical and mechanical characteristics of micropowders of synthetic and natural diamond and polycrystalline composite materials based on them

The results of the study of the physical and mechanical characteristics of micropowders of synthetic (SD 40/28) and natural (ND 40/28) diamonds and polycrystalline composite materials based on them. It is shown that both powders meet the requirements of the DSTU 3292-95 standard. At the same time, the abrasive ability of natural diamond is slightly higher than the abrasive ability of synthetic diamond micropowder, and the density and specific surface area of ​​the grains are lower than those of synthetic diamond. The elastic characteristics of sintered polycrystalline composite materials – Young’s modulus, shear modulus, modulus of uniform compression, Poisson’s ratio and wear resistance during mechanical processing of stone by friction are higher, and the durability during cyclic compression tests is slightly lower for a composite sintered on the basis of natural diamond micropowder than for a composite based on synthetic diamond.

The influence of nanodiamond surface modification on their heat resistance

The influence of nanodiamond surface modification on heat resistance by changing its functional coating was studied. Nanodiamond modification by high-temperature surface activation followed by chemical treatment leads to a decrease in the concentration of metallic impurities and oxygen-containing surface groups, which desorb at temperatures below 773 K. As a result, the oxidation rate of modified diamonds in air decreases by 1.7 times upon reaching a temperature of 773 K. The oxidation onset temperature shifts by 100 degrees.

Keywords: nanodispersed diamonds, heat resistance, modification, surface.

Direct dynamic synthesis of nanodispersed titanium nitride in a high-speed pulsed jet of electroerosive plasma

The possibility of obtaining nanodispersed TiN in a high-speed jet of electric discharge plasma generated by a coaxial magnetoplasma accelerator is shown. The process is implemented in a short-term (≈10–3 s) cycle of accelerator operation with titanium electrodes. The main consumable material is produced by electroerosive means from the surface of the accelerating channel. Depending on the specific supplied energy dissipated in the channel, the powder particles can have either a spherical or irregular shape and dimensions of 10–300 nm.

Key words: direct synthesis, nanodispersed TiN, magnetoplasma accelerator, hypervelocity jet.

Thermodynamic functions describing the process of liquid migration from a pore into the volume of a sintered body are obtained, the existence of migration pressure in a nanocomposite body is proven, and the condition for liquid equilibrium in a pore is derived. The concept of a critical pore radius is introduced and an expression for calculating its value is proposed. All pores with a radius greater than the critical value are stable in the sintered body. Pores with a radius less than the critical value are filled with a liquid phase.
