Properties of Carbon Deposits Formed by Plasma Spraying of NanodiamondDeposits of carbon nanoparticles based on an onion-like structure were fabricated by a new one-step method, an electromagnetically accelerated plasma spraying (EMAPS) deposition, from detonation nanodiamond powders on stainless steel substrates. The presence of spherical and polyhedral carbon onion particles was confirmed by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) studies. Carbon bonding in virgin powders and synthesized deposits was studied by two-wavelength Raman spectroscopy under excitation by visible (514 nm) and UV (244 nm) irradiation. The transformation of nanodiamonds to closed curved graphitic nanoparticles was explained by intensive heating and electron irradiation of the spraying powder in plasma. Friction measurement of the deposits showed their availability as solid lubricant films.
