NOVELTY - The method comprises mixing (18) a carbon containing explosive material with a non-explosive material, detonating (22) the mixture under conditions of negative oxygen balance in the presence of a cooling medium, purifying (24) the product of detonation from incombustible impurities, and carrying out (28) additional processing for activation or enhancement of electrical conductance. The non-explosive material contains element/species other than nitrogen that serve as a nanodiamond dopant. The additional processing includes purifying product of detonation from non-diamond carbon impurities.    USE - The method is useful for manufacturing electrically conductive nanodiamond particles, which are useful in high surface area carbon electrode materials in electroanalysis, electrochemical double-layer capacitors and storage materials for batteries and useful as a possible electrocatalyst support material for fuel cells and stationary support for liquid chromatography.    ADVANTAGE - The method is capable of economically and easily manufacturing the nanodiamond particles with enhanced electrical conductivity.    DETAILED DESCRIPTION - The method comprises mixing (18) a carbon containing explosive material with a non-explosive material, detonating (22) the mixture under conditions of negative oxygen balance in the presence of a cooling medium, purifying (24) the product of detonation from incombustible impurities, and carrying out (28) additional processing for activation or enhancement of electrical conductance. The non-explosive material contains element or species other than nitrogen that serve as a nanodiamond dopant. The additional processing includes purifying the product of detonation from non-diamond carbon impurities, and annealing. A combination of explosives minimizes the nitrogen content of the starting explosive material so that the nitrogen available to be incorporated into the lattice of nanodiamond particles produced is limited. An INDEPENDENT CLAIM is included for a nanodiamond-containing material with enhanced electrical conductivity.    DESCRIPTION OF DRAWING(S) - The diagram shows a flow chart of a process of doping a nanodiamond material during detonation.
