Abstract
The possibility of using the method of flameless combustion of RDX in ballasted systems to produce composite materials containing copper and zinc particles. The initial energetic material was RDX, the binder was hexamethylene diisocyanate, and precursors were copper hydroxocarbonate and copper oxalate. Highly porous composite materials containing nanosized particles of copper, zinc oxide or mixtures thereof were obtained by optimization of the flameless combustion conditions.
