Abstract

In this chapter, it focusses on nanodiamond. Nanodiamond is a type of diamond, which is a type of nano-carbon materials. In other words, nanodiamond is an allotrope of nano-carbon materials as same of fullerenes, carbon nanotubes, and graphene. The nanodiamond have universal properties of other nano-carbons typified by like an excellent thermal conductivity and also have antimicrobial properties and high refractive index properties at the same time. On the other hand, like other nanocarbons , it has extremely remarkable aggregation properties. Although it is a substance of a sphere with a minimum primary particle diameter at 5 nm prepared by detonation method, its outermost surface is covered with an adsorbed water nanolayer in order to stabilize the structure. As a result, it is dispersed in an aqueous solution, but it is difficult to disperse in an organic solvent or an organic polymer. Therefore, in this chapter, it will introduce a variety of research examples by surface modification to change nanodiamond into a easier-to-use material.
