Book Synopsis Nanoengineering and Synthesis of Metal-Based Materials for Enhanced Energetic Performance by : Prawal Agarwal
Download or read book Nanoengineering and Synthesis of Metal-Based Materials for Enhanced Energetic Performance written by Prawal Agarwal and published by . This book was released on 2023 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Metal-based energetic materials are a pathway for clean and sustainable energy applications because of their high energy densities and ability to oxidize readily and release large amounts of heat. They are sustainable sources of green combustion and can easily be stored and transported because they are chemically stable solids compared to hydrocarbon fuels. These merits lead to their applications in volume-limited propulsion, solid fuels, explosives, space exploration, self-destructing energetic chips, electrochemical energy storage, and hydrogen generation/storage. To be used effectively in these applications, nanometer-sized particles are beneficial because of the fast ignition, more complete combustion, and enhanced heat transfer and reaction rates due to the larger specific surface area available for the reaction. However, some roadblocks exist in harnessing the benefits of metal nanoparticles (NPs). The surfaces of the metal NPs are highly reactive. Hence, there is a formation of a native oxide layer on their surface. This native oxide occupies a significant fraction of mass in the sample that does not contribute to the oxidative heat release of the sample and also acts as a diffusion barrier on the metal NP surface that delays the contact of oxidizer with metal in the core and thus restricts the combustion process. Various methods are available in the literature to minimize the inhibiting effects of the native oxide layer on oxidative heat release. These methods are based on surface functionalization using solution-based approaches, reactive milling, coating reactive metals on other metals, and high-temperature sintering to synthesize metal borides. These methods helped us to determine how to approach solving the problem of the native oxide layer and investigating possible routes to improve the oxidative energy release from metal-based nanomaterials. We can either reduce native oxide or convert them into a reactive component such that they contribute to the oxidative heat release. In our work, we used nonthermal plasma processing and intermetallic chemistry based on self-propagating high-temperature synthesis (SHS) reactions. Nonthermal plasma is a low-temperature operation that triggers selective and rapid reactions on the surface. Due to low-temperature operation, this process uses energy efficiently. We used hydrogen plasma to generate reactive hydrogen species that can reduce native oxides of metal at room temperature. We also used plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) through argon plasma to deposit reactive nanofilms on the metal NPs surfaces to enhance the energy performance during oxidation and to passivate their surfaces to inhibit oxide growth in extreme temperature and humid conditions during storage. Using SHS, we synthesize solid solutions of metals with long storage life because of their thermal stability and with enhanced oxidative heat release due to the reduction of less reactive metal oxide with a more reactive metal. The process temperature is selected so that there is no sintering and agglomeration of NPs during the process. Both the above processes are dry-phase process and reduces the contamination of metals. Using nonthermal plasma processing, we enhanced the oxidative heat release from boron (B) NPs by developing an in-situ process in which hydrogen plasma reduces B oxide and PECVD coats the surface with a thin fluorocarbon film to stop reoxidation when NPs are exposed to the environment. PECVD is used to deposit reactive nanofilms of perfluorodecalin and oleic acid on the surface of aluminum (Al) NPs, which lead to superior energy performance of Al NPs. The plasma-based oleic acid nanofilms performed better than graphene oxide. Hydrogen plasma doped the Al NPs with hydrides such that during oxidation, channels are formed on the surface due to gas transport, leading to better oxidation of metal in the core. Boron is a desirable candidate for energetic applications with the highest gravimetric and volumetric energy density of 58 kJ/g and 140 kJ/mL. The energy from B can be exploited by the addition of reactive metals with reasonable gravimetric energy density, such as Al and magnesium (Mg), in the form of a mechanical mixture or solid solutions, which can undergo an exothermic redox reaction to reduce native oxide and enrich metallic B. We used SHS and mechanical mixing to form Mg/B solid solutions and energy-optimized Al/B systems to synthesize energetic materials. We also combined plasma chemistry and intermetallic chemistry to investigate the integrated effects of these processes on B energetics. Hence, we reduced native oxides and/or converted them into energetic components via nanoengineering by fabricating core-shell architectures and synthesizing energetic nanomaterials with enhanced energy performance and extended storage stability.

Book Synopsis Synthesis and Optical Ignition of Aluminum and Silicon-based Energetic Materials by : Yuma Ohkura
Download or read book Synthesis and Optical Ignition of Aluminum and Silicon-based Energetic Materials written by Yuma Ohkura and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Energetic materials, aluminum (Al) and silicon (Si), due to their large volumetric energy densities, earth abundance, and low cost, have broad applications in propulsion, thermal batteries, waste disposal and power generation for microsystems. The energetic materials are commonly prepared by mixing fuel and oxidizer powders, however, the energy release rates are slow and difficult to ignite. Furthermore, the large portion of the reactants remains unburned due to the formation of the oxide layer during the reaction. Optimized energetic materials would have the reactive components mixed on a scale as fine as possible to reduce the mass transport distance and facilitate the ignition. This leads to the idea of reducing the sizes of energetic materials down to nanoscale to increase the surface area and contact area between the fuel and oxidizer. In this study, we investigated two new areas: 1) the effects of the nanostructured morphology on the exothermic reaction of Al and CuO, 2) demonstrate and understand the flash ignition of Al nanoparticles (NPs), and extending the flash ignition to Al microparticles (MPs) and porous Si. First, it remains a challenge to create energetic materials, a mixture of Al and metal oxides, with nanoscale uniformity. Here, we report synthesis and ignition studies on thermites (mixtures of Al and metal oxides) with unique nanostructures, i.e., CuO/Al core/shell nanowires (NWs) and Al/CuO core/shell micro and nano particles. The CuO NW cores were synthesized by the thermal annealing of copper films and served as templates for the deposition of Al shells by subsequent sputtering. Similarly, for core/shell particles, the Al particles were coated with a very thin CuO shell using a solution phase method. The advantage of such core/shell structures are that CuO and Al are uniformly mixed at the nanoscale with no aggregation. The onset temperatures of the exothermic reaction of the core/shell NWs were similar to those of nanoparticle NP-based thermites in terms of magnitude, and insensitivity to equivalence ratios. Moreover, the core/shell NW thermites, compared to NP-based thermites, exhibit greatly improved mixing uniformity and reduced activation energy for the thermite reaction. For Al/CuO core/shell particles, in comparison to mixtures of Al particles and CuO NPs, have better chemical homogeneity and physical contact between Al and CuO, so that the core/shell particles exhibit much larger burning rates. The core/shell structure is a general and effective structure to tailor the combustion performance of energetic materials. Second, nonintrusive optical flash ignition is attractive for many applications due to its simplicity, and flexibility in controlling the area exposed to the flash. However, the oxidation mechanism of Al NPs at large heating rates remains inconclusive due to the lack of direct experimental evidence. We studied the oxidation mechanism of Al NPs under large heating rate (on the order of 106 K/s or higher) by a simple flash ignition method, which uses a xenon flash to ignite Al NPs. The flash ignition occurs when the Al NPs have suitable diameters and sufficient packing density to increase the temperature above their ignition temperatures. We then extended the flash ignition to Al MPs. Flash ignition of Al MPs is challenging due to their higher minimum flash ignition energy, which originates from weaker light absorption and higher ignition temperature compared to Al NPs. By the addition of WO3 NPs to Al MPs, the minimum flash ignition energy of Al MPs was reduced and we studied the roles of WO3 NPs upon flash ignition. Finally, we demonstrate that freestanding porous Si films can also be optically ignited in ambient air by a xenon flash. Our complementary experimental and numerical studies reveal that the minimum flash ignition energy increases with increasing the thickness due to heat loss through the porous Si layer. The minimum flash ignition energy is lower for higher porosity Si film since higher porosity reduces the heat capacity and thermal conductivity, facilitating the temperature rise. We believe that these results will be of great importance to reliably ignite energetic materials and to prevent unwanted combustion for practical energetic applications.
