A method of producing polycrystalline diamond aggregates, wherein a carbon-containing material is given a required shape, after which, in the presence of a catalyst taken in the form of a powder whose envelope surrounds the carbon-containing material, said material is subjected to the action of pressure and simultaneous heating by an electric current pulse with a duration of 0.1 to 10.0 sec.

Method of producing polycrystalline diamond aggregates

A method of producing polycrystalline diamonds which is characterized by providing a thermal contact of the reaction chamber with the cooled members of the device developing a high pressure and high temperatures for removing the heat generated within this chamber in the process of crystallization of a diamond, which method is also characterized in that the cross-sectional area of the metal-catalyst is not more than 0.04 that of the reaction chamber in a plane normal to the direction of the maximum withdrawal of the heat of crystallization. Said metal-catalyst is set in the carbon-containing material substantially in the center of the reaction chamber.
