In this study, three fluoro-containing ferrocene compounds (Fc-Fx) with different fluorine and Fc contents were prepared and then be coated on the surface of nanoaluminum (nAl) to increase the combustion performance of nAl and the anti-migration performance of Fc. By removing the aluminium oxide (Al 2 O 3 ) shell and instead constructing a new Fc-Fx shell with a thickness of 5–30 nm on the surface of nAl, the obtained nAl@Fc-Fx nanocomposites showed enhanced performances in i) anti-migration and ii) combustion performances owing to the Al-F interaction and the intimate contact between nAl and Fc-Fx. Among all three nAl@Fc-Fx nanocomposites, nAl@Fc-F2 with the longest fluorine chain could shorten the ignition delay time from 1.83 s to 1.03 s and nAl@Fc-F3 with highest Fc content could decrease the decomposition temperature of ammonium perchlorate to 328 °C. When the nAl@Fc-Fx nanocomposites were applied in the propellants, a shorter migration length (0.1–0.4 cm) was achieved as compared with the physically mixing nAl/Fc compound (3.0 cm), which was beneficial to enhancing their burning performance. This work demonstrated that nAl@Fc-Fx nanocomposites had great potential to be applied in solid rocket propellants.
A series of copolymers of poly(2-(methacryloyloxy) ethyl ferrocene carboxylate- co -methacrylic acid)s (P(FHEMA- co -MAA)s) were synthesized as burning rate catalysts (BRCs). Their structures were verified using proton nuclear magnetic resonance ( 1 H NMR) and Fourier transforms infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy. The electrochemical behavior of P(FHEMA- co -MAA)s was investigated by cyclic voltammetry (CV). The CV results indicated that P(FHEMA- co -MAA)s showed redox behavior. Anti-migration test proved that P(FHEMA -co- MAA)s possesses better anti-migration properties than ferrocene (Fc) and 2, 2-bis (ethylferrocenyl) propane (Catocene). The burning rate (BR) catalytic effect of P(FHEMA -co- MAA)s on thermal decomposition of AP was examined through thermogravimetry (TG) and differential thermogravimetry (DTG). P(FHEMA -co- MAA)s were found to have high catalytic effects in accelerating thermal decomposition of ammonium perchlorate (AP).
