Abstract:
F2602 was combined with Al, B, and Mg to prepare the multi-metal amphibious energetic composites (MAEC). Its oxidation, ignition, and combustion characteristics were investigated under an amphibious atmosphere (a mixture of air and water vapour in various proportions). F2602 accelerated the metal particles' low-temperature oxidation rate, whereas it reduced the degree of metal oxidation. However, in amphibious atmospheres, the oxidation degree, reaction rate, and heat release all significantly increased. This is because the HF produced by F2602 reacts with boron particles to form BF3, which reacts with H2O to release heat and couples with O2 to promote high-temperature oxidation and energy release of metals. However, these gases promoting combustion were carried away by the strong upward airflow in the laser experiment, resulting in the best ignition and combustion performance of MAEC samples in air. The combustion-promoting mechanisms of F2602 are as follows: 1) The HF produced by F2602 reacts with the oxide layer to form low-boiling-point metal fluorides, thereby promoting contact between the metal core and the oxidising gas; 2) The F atoms react with metal particles; 3) BF3 gas product reacts with H2O and couples with O2 to promote combustion. At low temperatures, F2602 first acts on Mg, followed by B and Al. However, MgF2 tends to remain in the sample in liquid form and act as an inhibitor. Therefore, F2602 has the best combustion-promoting effect on the boron particles. Under amphibious atmospheres, MAEC samples exhibit stable ignition performance and a significant increase in combustion temperature. Consequently, multi-metal composites modified with F2602 show promise as amphibious energetic materials.
