Diamond, ignition temperature

Diamond is extremely hard to subject to a chemical reaction. Due to its perfect crystal structure, it is only attacked at very high temperatures. It is true that diamond powder is inflammable, yet bigger lumps are only ignited in an oxygen blower at more than 800 °C. The oxidation rate depends on the size and surface characteristics of the single particles the temperature of combustion varies between 750 and 880 °C. In a stream of oxygen at 900 to 1200°C, diamond reacts completely to carbon dioxide, whereas graphite yields a CO/CO2 mixture. [Pg.29]
