Energetic Cocrystallization as the Most Significant Crystal Engineering Way to Create New Energetic Materials

Guangrui Liu et al.

Summary: Crystal engineering is an efficient approach for creating new materials with desired properties. Energetic cocrystallization, a part of crystal engineering, allows for the creation of new materials with specific properties by adjusting existing molecules. However, there are still challenges to overcome in terms of property evaluation, large-scale production, and future applications.

Study on the Cocrystallization Mechanism of CL-20/HMX in a Propellant Aging Process through Theoretical Calculations and Experiments

Xitong Zhao et al.

Summary: In this study, the aging performance of energetic materials in CL-20-based solid propellants was investigated. The results showed the formation of a cocrystal of CL-20/HMX through XRD and FTIR analysis. SEM and EDS analyses revealed the occurrence of pores and dehumidification during the aging process. Molecular dynamics simulation and theoretical calculations demonstrated the stronger binding and mechanical properties of the CL-20/HMX cocrystal, as well as the inducer effect of a nitrate ester during cocrystallization. These findings contribute to a better understanding of the degradation mechanisms and safe storage of propellants.

Thermal Decomposition Performance of CL-20-Based Ultraviolet Curing Propellants

Yu-chen Gao et al.

Summary: In this study, a photocuring formula was developed and 3D printed using a material extrusion technique for the production of propellants, explosives, and pyrotechnics. The thermal decomposition behavior and kinetics of the formula were investigated, and the gaseous products during decomposition were measured. The results indicated that the resin binder significantly influenced the decomposition of the compound, which exhibited two distinct exothermic processes with different activation energies.
