Sensitiveness of Porous Silicon-Based Nano-Energetic Films
Nanoporous silicon (pSi) films on a silicon wafer were loaded with sodium perchlorate and perfluoropolyether (PFPE) oxidizing agents. Sensitiveness to impact, friction and electrostatic discharge (ESD) of the resulting energetic thin films were investigated. It was observed that pSi loaded with perchlorate was sensitive at the lowest limit of detection for the available equipment (<4.9J impact energy, <5N friction force, and <45mJ ESD spark energy). When loaded with PFPE the material was very sensitive to impact (<4.9J), moderately sensitive to ESD (between 45 and 100mJ) and insensitive to friction (>360N). pSi loaded with either perchlorate or PFPE displayed behavior during sensitiveness testing similar to other primary explosive materials.
