Synthesis of industrial diamonds using FeNi alloy powder as catalyst

【摘要】 Synthesis of diamond single crystals in Fe80Ni20-C system was carried out in a cubic anvil high-pressure and high-temperature apparatus. This paper reports that the surface morphology and inclusion distribution of the grown diamonds had been observed. It finds that the inclusions in cubic and octahedral diamonds radiated along certain crystal orientation, while the inclusion distribution in cubo-octahedral diamond seemed independent of crystal orientation. By using scanning electron microscope, the surface morphology of the three shapes of diamonds was observed. The results of Mossbauer spectrum indicated that there were iron-inclusions Fe3C and Fe-Ni alloy in the diamonds. According to the Fe-C phase diagram, Fe3C should have formed during the quenching process. Nickel might have an inhibitory effect on the formation of Fe3C.更多还原
