Research abstract

Physical Sciences Inc. and BAE Systems propose to develop and demonstrate a scalable process to oxidatively resistant nanometallic matrices for use in energetic materials. The multi-functional coated nanometallic matrices will provide an oxidatively stable, hydrophobic, PAX binder compatible nanoparticle fuel to augment explosive performance and insensitive munition compliancy. The proposed process provides tailorable particle sizes by a straightforward process that is amendable to large-scale manufacturing BAE Systems. In Phase I, the processing efficacy and the coated nanometallic particles will be quantified for thermal and chemical stability and explosive performance by subscale testing.
