摘要: Abstract We analyzed thermite reactions in composites comprised of Al and CuO nanoparticles (NPs) investigated pressure change pressurization rate as a function composition. Although the stoichiometric ratio for reaction between is 2:3, our experiments show that maximum occurs Al-rich composites. Transmission electron microscopy analysis products revealed considerable number NPs are coated with Cu layer. attribute formation layer on surface during to off-stoichiometry, since renders relatively less reactive. Based experimental data, we propose mechanism which gasified grows into layer, gas-phase species travels from sites unreacted NP surface. Analysis characteristic timescale heat mass transfer reveals condensation faster than overall reaction.
