Composition of Hydrocarbons in Synthetic Diamonds Grown in a Fe—Ni—C System (according to Gas Chromatography—Mass Spectrometry Data)

Аннотация

The first data of chromatography—mass spectrometry analysis of volatiles from crystals of synthetic diamonds grown in a Fe—Ni—C system at 1350–1400°С and 5.5–6.0 GPa are presented. The composition of the fluid in equilibrium with the metal-carbon melt is determined, and a comparative estimation for the compounds of different hydrocarbons and their derivatives is made. It is shown that a significant role in these processes is played by high-molecular-weight hydrocarbons; and the total share of hydrocarbons and their derivatives in the fluid compounds can exceed 86%.
