Abstract

This paper reviews work carried out at the Institute for Problems of Materials Science, Ukraine National Academy of Sciences, in developing physical bases for shock-wave synthesis of superhard phases of carbon (diamond, lonsdaleite) and boron nitride (wurtzite and sphalerite modifications). The effect of phase transformation mechanisms on structure features of the phases that are obtained under shock compression conditions is considered.
