Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) is one of the most important organosilicon elastomers. This polymer has a wide application such as medical engineering due to the unique characteristics, variety and ease of manufacture. Nowadays, the use of nanoparticles such as carbon nanotubes for improving the properties of elastomers is highly regarded owing to the fact that the improvement of properties such as mechanical properties broadens the applications of PDMS. Diamond nanoparticles has been the focus of numerous researchers in the past decade. In fact, nanodiamond has a good mechanical abrasion and thermal properties. In addition, the investigations proved that the nanoparticle is valuable in terms of...
