Detonation of explosives was used to synthesize silicon carbide nanoparticles. Polycarbosilane was added to a mixture of 1,3,5-Trinitro-1,3,5-triazinane and 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene, which was subsequently detonated in an enclosed chamber backfilled with inert gas. X-ray diffraction analysis of the detonation soot was consistent with the presence of crystalline silicon with a diamond cubic structure and cubic silicon carbide, along with amorphous material. Further analysis by transmission electron microscopy revealed the presence of crystalline angular particles.
