AI Article Synopsis

  • Combustion reactions between metal chlorides and sodium amide happen quickly but require safety precautions.
  • Investigating the ignition temperatures aids in safe handling and provides information on the kinetics of the reaction between the powders.
  • The study found that products mainly included nitrides, metals, and sodium chloride, with different initiation temperatures depending on the type of metal chloride used.

Article Abstract

Combustion reactions between metal chlorides and sodium amide proceed in a short time; however, these reactions must be carried out with appropriate safety measures. Investigating their ignition temperatures would facilitate safe handling and give kinetic insights about the reaction between powders. Here, we investigated the products of the reactions between metal chlorides and sodium amide and measured their ignition temperatures. The products were mainly composed of nitrides, metals, and sodium chloride. The reactions of 4d and 5d metal chlorides initiated the reaction below room temperature, while 3d metal chlorides, except copper chloride, initiated the reaction upon heating. We found the correlation between the ignition temperatures and the reaction energies of the combustion reaction.
