Article Synopsis
- Polymeric hydrogels offer a safe and effective way to recycle waste propellants, maintaining their explosive performance while enhancing mechanical properties.
- The study produced a double cross-linked energetic hydrogel, optimizing factors like kinematic viscosity (ideal at 129.7 mm/s) and compressive strength, with peak strength at 5% MBAA content and 40 °C.
- An effective balance of mechanical and explosive traits was found with 6% acrylamide and 4% glass microspheres, achieving a notable detonation velocity of 4536 m/s, highlighting its potential for managing waste munitions.
Recently, metal oxyhalides have been broadly studied due to their hierarchical structures and promising functionalities. Herein, a thorough study of newly modeled monolayers ScXY (X = S and Se; Y = Cl and Br), a class of derivates of ScOBr monolayers, was conducted using first-principles calculations. We theoretically confirm that these ScXY monolayers are mechanically, dynamically, and thermally stable.

There are several explanations for this phenomenon, all of which result in a chronic state of low-grade inflammation. Recently, the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) has been proposed as a useful biomarker of inflammation.
