Journal ArticleDOI
Tribochemistry, Mechanical Alloying, Mechanochemistry: What is in a Name?
Adam A. L. Michalchuk,Elena V. Boldyreva,Ana M. Belenguer,Franziska Emmerling,Vladimir V. Boldyrev +4 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors address the question of what is meant by these terms, why have they evolved, and does it really matter how a process is called, which parameters should be defined to describe unambiguously the experimental conditions such that others can reproduce the results, or to allow a meaningful comparison between processes explored under different conditions?
Journal ArticleDOI
Ball-free mechanochemistry: in situ real-time monitoring of pharmaceutical co-crystal formation by resonant acoustic mixing
Adam A. L. Michalchuk,Adam A. L. Michalchuk,Adam A. L. Michalchuk,Karl S. Hope,Stuart R. Kennedy,Maria Valeria Blanco,Elena V. Boldyreva,Colin R. Pulham,Colin R. Pulham +8 more
TL;DR: The first in situ study of RAM-induced co-crystallisation monitored using synchrotron X-ray powder diffraction is presented, providing new insight into the role of various experimental parameters in conventional mechanochemistry using liquid-assisted grinding techniques.
Journal ArticleDOI
Complexities of mechanochemistry: elucidation of processes occurring in mechanical activators via implementation of a simple organic system
TL;DR: The α-glycine + β-malonic acid system was previously shown to adhere to divergent reaction pathways under mechanical treatment, but this system's complexity was further amplified when mechanical treatment was observed to yield yet another divergent Reaction path, producing either a known salt, glycinium semi-malonate, or what is at present an unidentified phase.
Journal ArticleDOI
Challenges of Mechanochemistry: Is In Situ Real-Time Quantitative Phase Analysis Always Reliable? A Case Study of Organic Salt Formation.
Adam A. L. Michalchuk,Adam A. L. Michalchuk,Adam A. L. Michalchuk,Ivan A. Tumanov,Sumit Konar,Simon A. J. Kimber,Colin R. Pulham,Colin R. Pulham,Elena V. Boldyreva +8 more
TL;DR: Kinetic analysis of RI‐XRPD allows, for the first time, observation of a mechanistic shift over the course of mechanical treatment, resulting from time evolving conditions within the mechanoreactor.
Journal ArticleDOI
Predicting the reactivity of energetic materials: an ab initio multi-phonon approach
Adam A. L. Michalchuk,Morris Trestman,Svemir Rudić,Peter Portius,Peter T. Fincham,Colin R. Pulham,Carole A. Morrison +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a fully-ab initio approach based on concepts of vibrational energy transfer was proposed to predict impact sensitivities for a series of chemically, structurally and energetically diverse molecular materials.
