Development of Synthesis and Large Scale Production Technology for Ultrahigh Energy and Density Fluoro-Organic Compounds
Abstract
This Phase II STTR project addressed the laboratory production and testing and commercialization aspects of producing high-density fluorine-rich compounds that are significantly more reactive and energetic than conventional explosives to neutralize and destroy chemical and biological agents. The project combined the scientific research base of the University of Florida Department of Chemistry and Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering with the analytical skills and technology marketing expertise of New Era Technology, Inc. (NeTech) to conduct this Phase II STTR, R&D effort. Development of fluorine-rich compounds-particularly SF5 bearing polymers-is important because of the deadly nature of the threat posed by biological and nerve agents (BANA).
