A review of ultra-high temperature heat-resistant energetic materials
Abstract
Heat-resistant energetic materials refer to a type of energetic materials that possess a high melting point, high stability and operational safety. By studying the structures of these energetic materials has showed that the thermal stability can be enhanced by introducing amino groups to form intra/inter-molecular hydrogen bonds, constructing conjugate systems and designing symmetrical structures. This article aims to review the physical and chemical properties of ultra-high temperature heat-resistant energetic compounds and provide valuable theoretical insights for the preparation of ultra-high temperature heat-resistant energetic materials. We also analyze the selected 20 heat-resistant energetic materials with decomposition temperatures higher than 350 °C, serving as templates for the synthesis of various high-performance heat-resistant energetic materials.
