Abstract
It has been found that spontaneous decomposition of carbonyl clusters with the general formula Pt x Pd y (CO) z at t ≥ 120°C leads to the formation of platinum-palladium sponge containing carbon phases—graphite, diamond, fullerenes, and carbon nanotubes resulting from the decomposition of CO molecules via the Boudoir reaction. The diamond has the form of grains up to 1 mm in size and filamentary crystals up to 2 cm in length and up to 30 μm in diameter, whose photographs are presented in the paper.
