Provides an up-to-date account of innovative energetic materials
and their potential applications in space propulsion and high
explosives Most explosives and propellants currently use a small
number of ingredients, such as TNT and nitrocellulose. In
comparison to conventional materials, nano- and micro-scale
energetic materials exhibit superior burning characteristics and
much higher energy densities and explosive yields. Nano and
Micro-scale Energetic Materials: Propellants and Explosives
provides a timely overview of innovative nano-scale energetic
materials (nEMs) and microscale energetic materials (µEMs)
technology. Covering nEMs and µEMs ingredients as well as
formulations, this comprehensive volume examines the preparation,
characterization, ignition, combustion, and performance of
energetic materials in various applications of propellants and
explosives. Twenty-two chapters explore metal-based pyrotechnic
nanocomposites, solid and hybrid rocket propulsion, solid fuels for
in-space and power, the sensitivity and mechanical properties of
explosives, new energetic materials, and more. Explores novel
energetic materials and their potential for use in propellants and
explosives Summarizes the most recent advances of leading research
groups currently active in twelve countries Discusses how new
environmentally friendly, high-combustion energetic materials can
best be used in different applications Explains the fundamentals of
energetic materials, including similarities and differences between
composite propellants and explosives Nano and Micro-scale Energetic
Materials: Propellants and Explosives is an important resource for
materials scientists, explosives specialists, pyrotechnicians,
environmental chemists, polymer chemists, physical chemists,
aerospace physicians, and aerospace engineers working in both
academia and industry.
Combustion agents for solid fuel propellants and explosives have
gained widespread interest in recent years. Their high gravimetric
heat of combustion enhances the performance of modern energetic
materials. Borohydride compounds have proved to be excellent
candidates in this application. High-energy Combustion Agents of
Borohydrides covers the most recent developments in the advanced
combustion agents of borohydrides. Experimental studies covering
the synthesis and characterisation of borohydrides are examined, as
well as the interactions between borohydride and propellant
ingredients. The properties of BHN/nano Al composites are
discussed, as is the effect of borohydrides on the properties of
fuel-rich solid propellants. The book concludes with a summary of
the prospective development of high-energy combustion agents in
solid propellants and explosives, and looks into the future
development of military applications. Authored by renowned experts
in the field, this book will appeal to researchers in academia and
industry seeking a better understanding of how to improve the
ignition and combustion performance of propellants and explosives.
