The Effect of Microsized Aluminum Powder on Thermal Decomposition of HNIW (CL-20) by Xiaoxiang Mao, Chenguang Zhu, Yanchun Li, Yifan Li, Longfei Jiang, Xiaoming Wang

“…The kinetic parameters of CL-20 and CL-20/Al were obtained by ASTM685 and Friedman methods, respectively, indicating that Al powder decreases the activation energy of CL-20 slightly and has a catalytic effect on the thermal decomposition of CL-20. By the method of nonlinear multivariate regression, kinetic models of CL-20 and CL-20/Al were derived as fα=1−αn1+kcat⋅α, where the lgkcat of CL-20 and CL-20/Al is 1.97 and 2.12, respectively, showing that the autocatalytic ability of CL-20 had been increased by adding Al powder. …”
