Journal ArticleDOI

Nanoporous metal foams.

TL;DR: An overview of newly developed synthetic strategies for producing NMFs along with an in-depth discussion of combustion synthesis as a versatile and scalable approach for the preparation of nanoporous, nanostructured metal foams are presented.
Journal ArticleDOI

Reaction Propagation of Four Nanoscale Energetic Composites (Al/MoO3, Al/WO3, Al/CuO, and B12O3)

TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined the performance of four different nanoaluminum/metal-oxide composites in terms of pressure output and propagaton speed for the open burn experiment and found that there is a correlation between the maximum pressure output of each composite and optimum propagation speed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ultralow-Density Nanostructured Metal Foams: Combustion Synthesis, Morphology, and Composition

TL;DR: A relatively simple method to access unprecedented ultralow-density, nanostructured, monolithic, transition-metal foams, utilizing self-propagating combustion synthesis of novel transition- metal complexes containing high nitrogen energetic ligands is reported.
Journal ArticleDOI

Combustion of nano-aluminum and liquid water

TL;DR: In this article, an experimental investigation on the combustion behavior of nano-aluminum (nAl) and liquid water has been conducted, in particular, linear and mass-burning rates of quasi-homogeneous mixtures of nAl and liquid Water as a function of pressure, mixture composition, particle size, and oxide layer thickness were measured.
Journal ArticleDOI

Thermal decomposition of energetic materials 79 thermal, vibrational, and X-ray structural characterization of metal salts of mono- and di-anionic 5-nitraminotetrazole

TL;DR: In this paper, the crystal and molecular structures of Cs(II) and Rb3(III)·H2O were determined by X-ray diffraction and the latter compound is the first structural characterization of (III) and also contains the nitrocyanamide anion, NCNNO2−.
