Aluminum nanoparticles and explosive formulations that incorporate them have been a
subject of ongoing interest due to the potential of aluminum particles to dramatically …

Time-resolved emission spectroscopy and high-speed photography were used to study the
chemical dynamics and thermal history of aluminized hexahydro-1, 3, 5-trinitro-1, 3, 5 …

Aluminum nanopowders, because of their larger surface area, can increase the burning rate
of propellants. It has been suggested that the powders could also enhance the detonation …

A 7.32 m 152 mm ID horizontal detonation tube incorporating a 1.83 m long stainless steel
highly-instrumented section was used to evaluate the use of submicron atomized aluminium …

The deflagration and combustion efficiency of 80 nm aluminum/ice (ALICE) mixtures with
equivalence ratios of ϕ= 1.0, 0.75, and 0.67 were experimentally investigated. We find that …

Nano-aluminum particles were produced by the electrical wire explosion method at this
laboratory. The size and shape of the particles were measured using a transmission electron …

The thermal behaviour of two different Al nanopowders and a micron‐sized Al powder was
studied using DSC, simultaneous TG‐DTA, and accelerating rate calorimetry (ARC). The …

A new synthesis approach for aluminum particles enables an aluminum core to be
passivated by an oxidizing salt: aluminum iodate hexahydrate (AIH). Transmission electron …

Aluminum powder is a common ingredient in energetic materials. The aluminum is used to
increase the energy and raise the flame temperature in rocket propellants. It is also …

Abstract Nano-sized aluminum (Nano-Al) powders hold promise in enhancing the total
energy of explosives and the metal acceleration ability at the same time. However, the near …
