In the present paper, a new approach for detonation nanodiamond (DND) deagglomeration is proposed. DND agglomerates of the size from 20 to 200 nm have been exposed to wet sonication assisted oxidative treatment with ozone under UV irradiation (Advanced Oxidation Process). Subsequent sonication and centrifugation gave a stable hydrosol of individual DND particles with negative zeta potential of −65 mV. The yield of the desired 4–5 nm fraction reached 33 wt%. Powder X-Ray Diffraction study showed no signs of DND crystalline core degradation, while the surface of particles was enriched significantly with carboxyl functional groups according to the data of Diffuse Reflectance Infrared Fourier Transform Spectroscopy, that gave boost to the stability of DND hydrosol. The approach provides relatively high yield of deagglomerated detonation nanodiamond without impact of high temperatures on the DND particles. It also allows avoiding gas phase processes sticking to wet-chemistry that could be useful for process scalability.
