It should be noted that such multicomponent phase components are metastable and cannot be obtained in an individual state. At the same time, phases of the Me11−xMe2xN type are formed in systems with participation of nitride compounds during extreme processing. In the present work, the technology of plasma-chemical synthesis with subsequent recondensation of gaseous nitrogen in a rotating cylinder was used.</p><p>The work is aimed at obtaining metastable complex-substituted titanium-cobalt nitride Ti0.7Co0.3N in the framework of nano- and ultradispersed Ti(Mo)C–Co “core-shell” structures. All phase components of the claimed compositions were determined by X-ray diffraction. Additionally, Ti(Mo)C–Co nanoparticles were studied by high-resolution transmission electron microscopy and electron diffraction. It was determined that Ti0.7Co0.3N has a strongly deformed stressed state, as evidenced by a single reﬂection (101) on the X-ray diffraction pattern. The paper also considers some aspects of crystal chemical design of Ti0.7Co0.3N obtained in the course of structural and morphological certiﬁcation of the Ti(Mo)C–Co nanocomposition.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="ru"><p>Нанокомпозиции со структурой «ядро-оболочка» представляют интерес в различных областях материаловедения и химии твердого тела, так как наряду с традиционными тугоплавкими компонентами в виде карбидов или нитридов и индивидуальных металлов (Ni, Co) в них появляются фазы смешанного состава. типа Me11-xMe2xN (Me1 – тугоплавкий элемент IV-VIA подгруппы, Me2 – Ni или Co), образующиеся при синтезе в составе одной высокодисперсной частицы. Следует отметить, что такие многокомпонентные системы являются метастабильными и не могут быть получены в индивидуальном состоянии. В то же время в системах с участием нитридных соединений при экстремальной обработке образуются фазы типа Me11-xMe2xN. В настоящей работе использовалась технология плазмохимического синтеза с последующей переконденсацией газообразного азота во вращающемся цилиндре. Работа направлена на получение метастабильного нитрида титана-кобальта Ti0.7Co0.3N в рамках нано- и ультрадисперсных структур Ti(Mo)C-Co «ядро-оболочка». Все фазовые компоненты заявляемых композиций определены методом рентгеновской дифракции. Дополнительно наночастицы Ti(Mo)C–Co исследовали методами просвечивающей электронной микроскопии высокого разрешения и электронной дифракции. Установлено, что Ti0.7Co0.3N имеет сильнодеформированное напряженное состояние, о чем свидетельствует одиночный рефлекс (101) на рентгенограмме. В работе также рассмотрены некоторые аспекты кристаллохимического дизайна Ti0.7Co0.3N, полученные в ходе структурно-морфологической аттестации нанокомпозиции Ti(Mo)C–Co.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>нитрид титана-кобальта</kwd><kwd>ядро-оболочка</kwd><kwd>плазменная реконденсация</kwd><kwd>низкотемпературная плазма</kwd><kwd>рентгенофазовый анализ</kwd><kwd>просвечивающая электронная микроскопия высокого разрешения</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>titanium-cobalt nitride</kwd><kwd>core-shell structure</kwd><kwd>plasma recondensation</kwd><kwd>low temperature plasma</kwd><kwd>X-ray phase analysis</kwd><kwd>high-resolution transmission electron microscopy</kwd></kwd-group><funding-group><funding-statement xml:lang="en">The work was carried out in accordance with the state assignment for the Institute of Solid State Chemistry of the Ural Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences (theme No 0397-2019-0003 “New functional materials for promising technologies: synthesis, properties, spectroscopy and computer simulation”).
