Abstract
A nanomaterial includes a powder that is comprised of composite particles. Each of the composite particles has a magnesium-rich metal core particle that defines an external surface and exposed nanodiamond particles that are bonded to the external surface and functionalized with amine. Also disclosed is a method for fabrication of the composite particles via a milling.

A nanomaterial comprising:
- a powder comprised of composite particles, each of the composite particles having a magnesium-rich metal core particle defining an external surface and exposed nanodiamond particles bonded to the external surface.
A method for fabricating a nanomaterial, the method comprising:
- introducing magnesium-rich metal core particles, nanodiamond particles, and milling media into a milling container, the magnesium-rich metal core particles are comprised of particle sizes that are larger than −100 Mesh;
- and
- rotating the milling container that has the magnesium-rich metal core particles, the nanodiamond particles, and the milling media, the milling media acting to impact the magnesium-rich metal core particles and the nanodiamond particles and bond the nanodiamond particles to an external surface of the magnesium-rich metal core particles to thereby form composite particles of the magnesium-rich metal core particles and nanodiamond particles bonded and exposed on the external surface.
