  • The reaction characteristics of aluminum-copper(II) oxide composites initiated by the electrostatic discharge were studied as changing the aluminum particle size. Three different sizes of aluminum particles with nano-size copper(II)-oxide particle were used in the study. These composites were manufactured by two methods i.e. a shock-gel method and a self-assembly method. The larger aluminum particle size was, the less sensitive and less violent these composites were based on the electrostatic test. On the analysis of high speed camera about ignition appearances and burning time, the burning speed was faster when aluminum particle size was smaller.

  • N-Guanylurea dinitramide (GUDN) is an energetic material with low sensitivities and good performance for use as propellants or insensitive munitions explosives. The efficient synthesis and characterization of high energy density material of GUDN is reported. GUDN was characterized spectroscopically as well as elemental analysis. In addition, the heats of formation were calculated with the Gaussian 09 suite of programs. For initial safety testing, the impact sensitivity and the friction sensitivity were tested following BAM procedure.

  • This study investigated the manufacturing process and characteristics of $BKNO_3$ (Boron Potassium Nitrate) as a pyrotechnic propellant that is commonly used in the aerospace, defense, and automobile industries. The solid mixture was composed of oxidizing agent, fuel, and binder. Evaporation process was used to uniformly mix the raw materials. The optimal ratio of composition was designed through the CEA program analysis of the material characteristics and thermal responses. Further the size, shape, sensitivity, and calorimetry characteristics were studied.

  • Zirconium potassium perchlorate(ZPP) is an igniter composed of potassium perchlorate as an oxidizing agent and zirconium as a fuel with a Viton binder. ZPP has been used to provide an ignition source in the aerospace, propulsion, and automotive industries. This study investigates the manufacturing process and characteristics of ZPP, such performance and shape/calorimetry/pressure characteristics with respect to pyrotechnic mechanical device(PMD). During the production of ZPP, the mixing process was designed to produce uniform particle size and shape by mixing the raw materials at high speed.
