As a novel energetic material, aluminum hydride (AlH 3) has attracted much attention
because of its high hydrogen storage capacity and rapid dehydrogenation at low …

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

As one of the typical high-energy components, CL-20 exhibits a particle size effect that the
burning rate of CL-20 based propellant increases significantly with the increase of particle …

Micro-propulsion underwater technology has been an extensively concerned topic in
advanced marine energy systems because of its wide prospects in high-precision …

The incomplete combustion of aluminum in solid propellants leads to a low-level energy
release. As a promising strategy, fuel/oxidizer interfacial control is proved to be effective for …

Nanothermites with fluoropolymer are popular among researchers due to their excellent
combustion performance. Polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) is a kind of typical fluoropolymer …

Fluoride coating can reduce the ignition temperature, enhance the burning rate and inhibit
the agglomeration of aluminum powder. However, the addition of non-energetic fluoride can …

Micron-sized aluminum particles tend to melt into agglomerates, leading to incomplete
combustion, two-phase flow losses, and energy decrease of propellants. The higher ignition …

Modulation of burning rates and inhibition of aluminum agglomeration in solid propellants
have generated considerable research interest in the field of energetic materials. In this …
