Abstract Biological agent defeat formulations containing an iodinated binder offer a unique solution for sterilization and neutralization of the surrounding environment in the form of iodine gas generation. This study characterized the thermal reactivity of an iodinated binder: hexamethylene diamine (HMD) trimer (C20H30N4O2I4) when combined with aluminum and iron oxide (Al + Fe2O3) thermite. Laser ignition studies were performed to evaluate ignition time and energy, as well as in-situ monitoring of the reaction using a high-speed camera. Thermal analysis of HMD showed four stages of exothermic decomposition plus generation of gas phase iodine species released upon decomposition. Thermal analysis of HMD + Al + Fe2O3 is consistent with laser ignition studies that showed HMD aids ignition and reaction of the ternary mixture. Overall, HMD contributed to heating and ignition as well as provided a source for iodine gas in multiple stages of the thermal reaction.

用于含能材料应用的富碘粘合剂的热分析

摘要 含有碘化粘合剂的生物制剂失效配方提供了一种独特的解决方案，以产生碘气体的形式对周围环境进行消毒和中和。该研究表征了碘化粘合剂的热反应性：六亚甲基二胺 (HMD) 三聚体 (C20H30N4O2I4) 与铝和氧化铁 (Al + Fe2O3) 铝热剂组合时的热反应性。进行激光点火研究以评估点火时间和能量，以及使用高速相机对反应进行原位监测。HMD 的热分析显示放热分解的四个阶段加上分解时释放的气相碘物质的产生。HMD + Al + Fe2O3 的热分析与激光点火研究一致，表明 HMD 有助于三元混合物的点火和反应。全面的，
