Nanodiamond Modified with SHP

A stirring mill, an ultrasonic bath and a high-speed shearing emulsifier were adopted to modify the surface characteristics of nanodiamond (ND) respectively. The ζ-potential, size distribution and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) of ND were measured to evaluate its properties. Results show that the ζ-potential of ND modified with SHP (either by Mechano-chemical Modification or Ultrasonic measurement) drops sharply. Results also show that the rotating speed of the emulsifier exerts little influence on the size D5 but great influence on the size D95 of ND.
