Interaction‐Enhanced Coating of Energetic Material: A Generally Applicable Method for the Desensitization

Abstract

AbstractInspired by the better desensitizing effect introduced by enhanced interaction, ammonium formate (Am) was utilized to modify graphene oxide (GO) and the functional graphene oxide (Am−GO) was obtained in this work, which was endowed with more amino groups and completely positive charge. Due to the modification and corresponding enhanced interaction, the impact sensitivity and friction sensitivity of HMX/Am−GO can be desensitized to 40 J and 192 N, respectively. To further desensitize the friction sensitivity, graphite (G) was utilized to replace part of Am−GO. And HMX/Am−GO/G was endowed with 40 J and 360 N of impact sensitivity and friction sensitivity respectively, which is the best desensitizing effect of HMX to our best knowledge. Furthermore, CL‐20 and DNTF were coated by the same coating, which also can be desensitized with the best effect. In addition, because the coating process is performed in water at room temperature, this desensitization is environment‐friendly and benefit for the large scale of production. This work demonstrates the improved desensitizing effect with enhanced interaction and provides a potential general applicable method for desensitization.
