Preparation of safer reactive nanothermites
Safer handling of sensitive energetic materials is the main concern of nanothermites development. These compositions, made from a metal oxide and a metallic fuel, show interesting reactive properties but also an extreme sensitivity to electrostatic discharge leading to make their handling hazardous.

Nanothermite colloids: A new prospective for enhanced performance
Nanothermites (metal oxide/metal) can offer tremendously exothermic self sustained reactions. CuO is one of the most effective oxidizers for naonothermite applications.

Quo Vadis, Nanothermite? A Review of Recent Progress. [PDF]
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, which is the fuel. A characteristic feature of termite combustion reactions, apart from their extremely high exothermicity, is that they proceed, for the most part, in ...

Electrophoretic Deposition and Characterization of Highly Exothermic Al/CuO Nanothermites
Based on the superior exothermic properties, Al/CuO nanothermites are considered as one of the most promising energetic materials in recent years. In this work, the CuO nanospheres with particle size of 100–120 nm were successfully synthesized by a ...

Afterburn modeling of nanothermite composites [PDF]
The Jones-Wilkins-Lee (JWL) EOS is widely used to capture detonation energy release but not the energy release from secondary combustion, or afterburn. To account for the burn mechanism of detonation products with that of combustion, the JWL EOS had been extended such as in the work of Miller[1], whose reactive flow model for highly non-ideal ...

Group Combustion of Dispersed Spherical Core–Shell Nanothermite Particles
The group combustion characteristics of core–shell nanothermite particles differ from other dispersed solid or liquid fuels. In a core–shell structure, each discrete nanothermite particle can undergo an exothermic reaction as the oxygen atoms in the ...
