Synthesis and analysis of reactive nanocomposites prepared by arrested reactive milling
Different types of reactive nanocomposites have been synthesized by Arrested Reactive Milling (ARM). The technical approach was to increase the interface area available for heterogeneous reaction between solid fuel and oxidizer components. Using aluminum as the main fuel and different metal oxides …

Fully dense aluminum-rich aluminum copper oxide powders for energetic formulations
… using a technique referred to as arrested reactive milling. Regular metal and oxide powders are blended and ball milled at room temperature resulting in a fully dense and reactive nanocomposite powder. The produced Al-CuO nanocomposite powders have been considered for applications in …
