Foci for Determining the Insensitivity Features of Nanometer RDX: Nanoscale Particle Size and Moderate Thermal Reactivity

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors discussed the reasons why nanometer RDX showed lower sensitivity than micro RDX and employed the Kinetic Compensation Effect (KCE) to calculate the kinetic parameters of both micro and nano-RDX.

Encapsulation of Reactive Nanoparticles of Aluminum, Magnesium, Zinc, Titanium, or Boron within Polymers for Energetic Applications

TL;DR: A popular and convenient method to passivate and protect reactive metal nanoparticles is to either graft pre-assembled polymer molecules to the nanoparticle surface or use the reactive nano-nanoparticle surface to initiate and propagate oligomer or polymer growth as discussed by the authors.

In Situ Cutting of Ammonium Perchlorate Particles by Co‐Bipy “scalpel” for High Efficiency Thermal Decomposition

TL;DR: In this paper , the authors showed that ammonium perchlorate (AP) can play the role of "scalpel" and in situ cut AP particles, which can not only realize the influence on AP, but also perform a positive function in the combustion process of solid propellants.

Effects of Select Metal Oxides on the Onset, Rate and Extent of Low Temperature Ammonium Perchlorate Decomposition

TL;DR: The addition of metal oxides (MOs) can alter motor performance but may cause a thermal runaway hazard in a solid rocket as discussed by the authors, and the addition of MOs can improve the performance of solid rocket motors.

Ammonium Perchlorate Decomposition Characteristic Parameters Determination, a Simplified Approach

TL;DR: In this article, the effects of various grain sizes (10~390 µm) under heating rate of 40 °C/min on ammonium perchlorate (AP) decomposition characteristic parameters, the decomposition thermal behavior and kinetic parameters (activation energy and preexponential factor), were investigated by simultaneous DSC/TGA in a dynamic nitrogen atmosphere.
