In this paper, the decomposition reaction models and thermal hazard properties of 1,3,5-trinitro-1,3,5-triazinane (RDX) and its PBXs bonded by Formex P1, Semtex 1A, C4, Viton A and Fluorel polymer matrices have been investigated based on isoconversional and combined kinetic analysis methods. The established kinetic triplets are used to predict the constant decomposition rate temperature profile...

Submit Manuscript | http://medcraveonline.com PVC has significant defects due to its quick decomposition at temperature higher than 130°C [3-5]. This process results in a significant change in color, reducing the mechanical properties and the generated HCl exacerbates the decomposition of PVC, so the usage of PVC thermal stabilizers is inevitable [4,6]. Our group had synthesized pentaerythritol...

With the extensive applications of lithium ion batteries, many batteries fire and explosion accidents were reported. Base on the combustion triangle theory, the combustion triangle contributions of lithium ion battery were analysed. By using C80 micro calorimeter, the thermal behavior studies on the materials show that the flammable electrolyte, oxygen generated by charged cathode and anode dec...

We synthesized Na(2)[B(12)H(12)] by a solid state procedure and thermal decomposition of Na[B(3)H(8)], and calculated from a first-principles approach the thermodynamic and structural properties. In particular, the calculated enthalpy of formation of the monoclinic structure, at T = 0 K, of -1086.196 kJ mol(-1) showed that it is a very stable compound. Therefore, in case it were formed during t...

A novel method for preparing epoxy/silver nanocomposites was developed via the in situ formation of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) within the epoxy resin matrix while using silver nanowires (AgNWs) as a conductive filler. The silver–imidazole complex was synthesized from silver acetate (AgAc) and 1-(2-cyanoethyl)-2-ethyl-4-methylimidazole (imidazole). AgNPs were generated in situ during the curin...

A new tetradentate N2O2 Schiff base ligand (MeO-bph)2bn = N,N¢-bis(2-hydroxy-4-methoxybenzophenone)-1,4-butanediamine was prepared from the condensation of butane-1,4-diamine with 4-methoxy-2-hydroxybenzophenone and characterized by 1H-NMR spectroscopy and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Its nickel(II) and copper(II) complexes characterized usin...
