composite solid propellants were prepared with and without nano-alloys (ti-co, ti-ni, ti-zn), where nano-alloys used as catalyst. these nano-alloys are prepared by hydrazine reduction method. catalytic properties of these nanomaterials were measured on ammonium perchorate/hydroxyterminatedpolybutadiene propellant by thermogravimetery analysis and differential thermal analysis. both experimental...

Thermal decomposition behavior of Poly(L-lactic acid) (PLLA) and PLLA composites after different heat treatment were investigated using thermogravimetric analysis. Firstly, the thermal decomposition results of neat PLLA showed that the decomposition of PLLA was a first-order kinetic reaction, and thermal decomposition kinetics indicated that the heat treatment significantly affected activation ...

a new nano-sized cobalt(ii) coordination polymer, (col1).0.5dmf.1.5ch3oh(1); [h2l1 = 5-(4-carboxy phenyl azo) salicyilic acid] has been synthesized by a sonochemical method. the thermal stability of compound 1 was studied by thermo- gravimetric and differential thermal analyses. nano-structure of this coordination polymer was characterized by elemental analyses, ir spectroscopy,  powder x-ray d...

Simultaneous thermal analysis (STA) method has been applied to study decomposition reactions of AP under a flowing nitrogen atmosphere and static air. Results obtained indicate that a phase transformation occurs prior to the decomposition reaction. Decomposition takes place exothermally in two stages, first stage of decomposition could be suppressed by the controlled heating programme. Addi...

This paper has been utilizing the simultaneous ThermoGravimetric analysis and Differential Scanning Calorimetry (TG–DSC) to investigate the thermal decomposition of magnesium-sodium nitrate pyrotechnic composition based HTPB resin. The thermal behaviors of different samples with various fuel-oxidizer ratio contents were determined. Decomposition kinetic was investigated by evaluating the in...

mg(oh)2 nanoparticles were synthesized by a rapid microwave reaction. the effect of sodium dodecyl sulfonate (sds as anionic surfactant) and cetyl tri-methyl ammonium bromide (ctab as cationic surfactant) on the morphology of magnesium hydroxide nanostructures was investigated. multi wall carbon nano tubes was organo-modified for better dispersion in cellulose acetate matrix. the influence of m...

ionomers are generally described by copolymers having either acrylic or methacylic acid as one component and the other component is mostly either ethylene or styrene. the objective of this research was to study the thermal behaviour and stability of ionomers of styrene with some alkali metal acrylates. these materials have been synthesized by neutralization of the respective copolymer containin...

magnesium hydroxide nanostructures as an effective flame retardant were synthesized by a facile and rapid microwave reaction. the effect of different surfactants such as cationic, anionic and polymeric on the morphology of magnesium hydroxide nanostructures was investigated. nanostructures were characterized by x-ray diffraction (xrd), scanning electron microscopy (sem) and fourier transform in...
