Long‐Term Marine‐Induced Aging Mechanisms in FDM‐Printed PC, ABS and HIPS: Molecular and Microstructural Evolution

open access: yesMacromolecular Materials and Engineering, Volume 311, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Additive manufacturing by fused deposition modelling (FDM) has expanded the use of engineering thermoplastics in environments where long‐term durability remains insufficiently characterized. In this work, the molecular and microstructural aging mechanisms of FDM‐printed polycarbonate (PC), acrylonitrile–butadiene–styrene (ABS) and high‐impact ...

Controllable Energy Release of Boron@Tannic Acid@Ammonium Perchlorate Energetic Microunits Governed by Cu Single Atoms

open access: yesRare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Controllable energy release in solid propellants has always been a challenging technology, and extensive efforts have been devoted to the synthesis and application of catalysts to achieve its controllable release. In this study, tannic acid (TA) and its complexes (TA‐Cu) were introduced into boron@ammonium perchlorate (B@AP) composites using ...

Hydroxyl‐Terminated Polybutadiene‐Based Molding Powders as an Alternative Route for Manufacturing Pressed Polymer‐Bonded Explosives

open access: yesPropellants, Explosives, Pyrotechnics, Volume 51, Issue 6, Page 955-965, June 2026.
This study presents an alternative method to manufacture polymer‐bonded explosives by partially curing an HTPB‐based molding powder prior to compaction. The study shows that the length of partial cure time before compaction directly influenced the geometric fidelity, homogeneity, compressive strength, density, and internal microstructure.
