Abstract

A theoretical analysis of the nanodiamond graphitization was presented. Thermodynamic analysis of the nanodiamond showed three kinds of phase-diagram; smaller nanodiamond, nanodiamond-graphite, and larger nanodiamond. In the theoretical analysis, the most probable and the maximum volume fractions of graphite in the nanodiamond were 0.76 and 0.84, respectively regardless of the annealing temperature and the initial radius of the nanodiamond. The highest graphitization probability decreased with increasing annealing temperature.
