This paper details the synthesis and characterization of Silicon (Si) nanostructured powder with a wide variety of morphologies such as nanoparticles, nanowires, nanotubes, etc., produced by DC plasma arc discharge route. These nanostructures were synthesized by controlling the synthesis parameters such as current, voltage, catalyst, gas pressure, etc. The structural, morphological and vibrational properties were investigated using X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, nitrogen adsorption-desorption isotherms and Raman ...
The Energetics and Warheads Division of the U.S. Army Armament Research, Development and Engineering Center has been involved in the development of CL-20. An aqueous hydrolysis study was performed to better understand the fate and transport of CL-20 through environmental systems.
The Energetics and Warheads Division of the U.S. Army Armament Research, Development and Engineering Center has been involved in the development of CL-20. An alkaline hydrolysis study was performed to better understand the fate and transport of CL-2O through environmental systems. CL-20, also known as HN 1W (2,4,6,8,10,1 2-hexanitro-2,4,6,8, 10,1 2-hexaaziaisowurtzitane), is a high energy, high density material. Concerns regarding the envirnnmental fate and transport of CL-20 are arising due ...
