The present invention generally concerns a nano-enhanced explosive that is integrated at many points across an explosive train. More specifically, a nano-enhanced explosive is formed when a nanocomposite we call nMx is combined with a secondary high explosive. nMx is made of Li3AlH6 nanoparticles, elemental Al nanoparticles, an amount of Ti metal, and a nanoscale organic layer having unique burning profiles that lend energy to the explosive process including increased shockwave propagation through a chemical explosive and increased temperatures and gaseous pressure build up and release in and about the same. Our nano-enhanced explosive can be integrated at various points across an explosive train, e.g. use within a detonation cord (fuse), or as a detonation charge (initiator), or as the main charge, where the use of the nano-enhanced explosive can be characterized by the energy lent to projectiles from munitions, bubbles formed by underwater explosive trains, or blast profiles.
本发明一般涉及一种纳米增强型炸药,这种炸药在炸药组的许多点上都有集成。nMx 由 Li3AlH6 纳米颗粒、元素 Al 纳米颗粒、一定量的金属 Ti 和纳米级有机层组成,具有独特的燃烧特性,可为爆炸过程提供能量,包括增加冲击波在化学炸药中的传播,以及增加温度和气压在化学炸药中的积聚和释放。我们的纳米增强型炸药可以集成在炸药组的各个点上,例如在起爆索(引信)内使用,或作为起爆药(起爆剂),或作为主装药,纳米增强型炸药的使用可以通过向弹药射出的弹丸、水下炸药组形成的气泡或爆炸剖面提供能量来表征。
