Abstract
Integrating energetic materials with microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) to achieve miniaturized integrated smart energetic microchips has broad application prospects in miniaturized aerospace systems and civil explosive systems. In this work, MEMS compatible [Cu(BODN)·5H2O]n arrays and [Cu(BODN)·5H2O]n@nano-Al composite energetic films were successfully fabricated on copper substrates by the in situ reaction method and drop-coating method. Single crystal X-ray diffraction, powder X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, infrared spectroscopy, differential thermal analyses, and pulsed laser ignition were employed to characterize the prepared samples. The results show that [Cu(BODN)·5H2O]n arrays formed by the coordination reaction between the Cu(OH)2 template and the BODN ligand exhibit a porous supramolecular structure with excellent thermal and energy properties. Their morphology and composition on a copper substrate can be effectively regulated by adjusting the reaction time and solution concentration. In addition, adjustable energetic properties of [Cu(BODN)·5H2O]n@nano-Al composite films can be achieved after the encapsulation of nano-Al. Their heat release, flame height and ignition duration can reach as much as 1987.5 J g-1, 13.2 mm, and 5900 μs, respectively, indicating that [Cu(BODN)·5H2O]n@nano-Al can be used as an excellent pyrotechnic agent in MEMS ignition chips. Overall, this work provides a reference for the integration and application of energetic materials in MEMS systems.
