Abstract
The dense alumina shell on the surface of aluminum powder will hinder the combustion of aluminum powder and increase its ignition temperature. In this study, the aluminum oxide shell layer on the surface of aluminum powder was removed with hydrofluoric acid by one-pot method, and 3-Perfluorohexyl-1, 2-epoxypropane (PFHP) (F3C(CF2)5CH2C2H3O) was coated to form a uniform and controllable core-shell Al@PFHP. The core-shell Al@PFHP showed better thermal reaction and ignition performance. The exothermic enthalpy of Al@0.15 PFHP was increased by about 1.9 times, with lower ignition temperature (reduced by about 140 °C) and longer burning duration (increased by about 1.5 times) after coating with PFHP, compared with raw aluminum powder. In addition, the formation of PFHP coating shell can effectively improve the hydrophobicity and corrosion resistance of aluminum powder.
