Journal ArticleDOI
Assembly and reactive properties of Al/CuO based nanothermite microparticles
TL;DR: In this paper, an electrospray route was used to assemble Al and CuO nanoparticles into micron composites with a small percentage of energetic binder, which showed higher reactivity than nanothermite made by conventional physical mixing.
Journal ArticleDOI
Probing the Reaction Mechanism of Aluminum/Poly(vinylidene fluoride) Composites.
TL;DR: This work examines the PIR between alumina and PVDF to further explain the reaction mechanism of the Al/PVDF system and shows a direct correlation between the amount of alumina in the PVDF film and the relative signal intensity of hydrogen fluoride release (HF).
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this paper, uniformly distributed nanoparticles with diameters around 10nm can be self-assembled within a reduced graphene oxide matrix in 10 milliseconds, which can be applied to a wide range of materials, including aluminium, silicon, tin and so on.
Journal ArticleDOI
Super-reactive nanoenergetic gas generators based on periodate salts.
TL;DR: An example of gas generators based on periodate salts as oxidizers in nanoenergetic formulations is presented, producing the highest reported gas pressure pulses.
Journal ArticleDOI
