Constructing Porous Energetic Spherulites via Solvation-Growth Coupling for Enhanced Combustion.

Small

October 2024

State Key Laboratory of Chemical Engineering, School of Chemical Engineering and Technology, Tianjin University, Tianjin, 300072, P. R. China.

The fabrication of materials with hierarchical structures has garnered great interest, owing to the potential for significantly enhancing their functions. Herein, a strategy of coupling molecular solvation and crystal growth is presented to fabricate porous spherulites of 2,4,6,8,10,12-hexanitro-2,4,6,8,10,12-hexaazaisowurtzitane (CL-20), an important energetic material. With the addition of polyvinylpyrrolidone in the antisolvent crystallization, the metastable solvate of CL-20 is formed and grows spherulitically, and spontaneously desolvates to obtain the porous spherulite when filtration, in which the characteristic peak of the nitro group of CL-20 shifts detected by the in situ micro-confocal Raman spectroscopy.

Study on the Effect of Nanoporous Copper Particle Size on Copper-Based Azide.

Micromachines (Basel)

March 2024

State Key Laboratory of Explosion Science and Technology, School of Mechatronical Engineering, Beijing Institute of Technology, Beijing 100081, China.

Article Synopsis
  • The study focuses on synthesizing copper-based azide through in situ reactions, tailored for MEMS technologies, and aims at improving micro-initiators for explosives.
  • Various particle sizes (30 nm, 60 nm, and 100 nm) of porous copper were prepared through powder sintering, leading to different morphologies and performance in detonation tests with CL-20 and HNS-IV explosives.
  • Results indicated that smaller precursor sizes (60 nm and 30 nm) led to more stable and efficient detonation performance, requiring less explosive charge compared to the 100 nm precursor, ultimately enhancing reliability and energy efficiency in applications.

ZIF-67 is a three-dimensional zeolite imidazole ester framework material with a porous rhombic dodecahedral structure, a large specific surface area and excellent thermal stability. In this paper, the catalytic effect of ZIF-67 on five kinds of energetic materials, including RDX, HMX, CL-20, AP and the new heat-resistant energetic compound DAP-4, was investigated. It was found that when the mass fraction of ZIF-67 was 2%, it showed excellent performance in catalyzing the said compounds.

Safe Fabrication, Thermal Decomposition Kinetics, and Mechanism of Nanoenergetic Composite NBC/CL-20.

ACS Omega

December 2020

National Special Superfine Powder Engineering Research Center of China, Nanjing University of Science and Technology, Nanjing 210094, Jiangsu, China.

Benefiting from the sol-gel technology and vacuum freeze-drying technology, a novel nanoenergetic composite material nitrated bacterial cellulose (NBC)/CL-20 (hexanitrohexaazaisowurtzitane) has been fabricated. The thermal decomposition kinetic and mechanism have been studied by thermogravimetric analysis-differential scanning calorimetry (TG-DSC) under nonisothermal conditions in a nitrogen atmosphere at multiple heating rates; the process and mechanism of thermal decomposition of NBC/CL-20 have also been probed by TG-DSC-IR. The kinetic and thermodynamic parameters, such as activation energy ( ), per-exponent factor (ln ), rate constant (), activation heat (Δ ), activation free energy (Δ ), and activation entropy (Δ ) are calculated.

Fabrication of Copper Azide Film through Metal-Organic Framework for Micro-Initiator Applications.

ACS Appl Mater Interfaces

February 2019

College of Chemistry and Molecular Engineering , Zhengzhou University, Zhengzhou 450001 , PR China.

The paradox between safety and detonation performance, along with the intrinsic fragility of primary explosives, is the main bottleneck precluding their application in a micro-initiation system. To tackle these issues, we fabricate a flexible copper azide film (CA-C film@PF) via employing the metal-organic framework (MOF) film produced by electrospinning technique as the precursor, followed by pyrolysis treatment, in situ azide reaction, and perfluorinated coating procedures. The synergetic effect of MOF and interweaved polymer fiber endow the resultant copper azide film with excellent electrostatic stability and remarkable detonation performance.
