One of the groups of pyrotechnic compositions is thermite compositions, so-called thermites,
which consist of an oxidant, usually in the form of a metal oxide or salt, and a free metal …

Background In this work biologically active CuO nanoparticle were discussed. The literature
suggests that CuO shows very good antibacterial activity on both Gram positive and Gram …

Aluminum (Al) is a widely used metal fuel for energetic applications ranging from space
propulsion and exploration, and materials processing, to power generation for nano-and …

In this experimental study, we explore how the combustion and agglomeration
characteristics of solid propellants can be modified by replacing aluminum with ternary …

Optical ignition of solid energetic materials, which can rapidly release heat, gas, and thrust,
is still challenging due to the limited light absorption and high ignition energy of typical …

Metastable intermolecular composites (MICs), also called nanothermites, are attracting wide
attention mainly due to the increased interfacial contact area of the fuels and oxidants …

High-speed air-breathing propulsion systems, such as solid fuel ramjets (SFRJ), are
important for space exploration and national security. The development of SFRJ requires …

Aluminum (Al) is an excellent metal fuel for combustion applications because of its high
energy density and low cost. Nano-sized Al (nAl) particles have relatively low ignition …

Magnesium diboride (MgB2) has been explored as an alternative fuel to boron (B) due to its
high energy density and the additive effect of magnesium (Mg) to promote B combustion …

With the continuous development of advanced fuel and engine technology, the boundary
between liquid and solid fuel is more and more blurred, so the development of new solid …
