Mechanochemistry of energetic composite Interfaces
Abstract
While there is a substantial body of published works on energetic crystals and polymer binders, the constituents of energetic composites, our understanding of the role of interfaces in composite material performance is still limited. The presence of an interface between two different materials induces changes to the electronic environment of both materials. Based upon the covalent and non-covalent interactions at the interface (from the electronic environment perspective), the study enumerates how the interface alters the non-equilibrium energy transport between the two materials in an energetic composite subjected to some applied loading conditions as well as how the interface alters the reaction pathway of the decomposition of the energetic composite.
