Detonation Performance of Insensitive Nitrogen-Rich Nitroenamine Energetic Materials Predicted from First-Principles Reactive Molecular Dynamics Simulations. JACS AU 2024; 4:1605-1614. [PMID: 38665641 PMCID: PMC11040668 DOI: 10.1021/jacsau.4c00069] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/24/2024] [Revised: 03/05/2024] [Accepted: 03/05/2024] [Indexed: 04/28/2024]
Abstract
Because of the excellent combination of high detonation and low sensitivity properties of the 1,1-diamino-2,2-dinitroethylene (FOX-7) energetic material (EM), it is useful to explore new energetic derivatives that start with the FOX-7 structure. However, most such derivatives are highly sensitive, making them unsuitable for EM applications. An exception is the new nitroenamine EM, 1,1-diamino-2-tetrazole-2-nitroethene (FOX-7-T) (synthesized by replacing a nitro group with a tetrazole ring), which exhibits good stability. Unfortunately, FOX-7-T shows an unexpected much lower detonation performance than FOX-7, despite its higher nitrogen content. To achieve an atomistic understanding of the insensitivity and detonation performance of FOX-7 and FOX-7-T, we carried out reactive molecular dynamics (RxMD) using the ReaxFF reactive force field and combined quantum mechanics MD (QM-MD). We found that the functional group plays a significant role in the initial decomposition reaction. For FOX-7, the initial decomposition involves only simple hydrogen transfer reactions at high temperature, whereas for FOX-7-T, the initial reaction begins at much lower temperature with a tetrazole ring breaking to form N2, followed by many subsequent reactions. Our first-principles-based simulations predicted that FOX-7-T has 34% lower CJ pressure, 15% lower detonation velocity, and 45% lower CJ temperature than FOX-7. This is partly because a larger portion of the FOX-7-T mass gets trapped into condensed phase carbon clusters at the CJ point, suppressing generation of gaseous CO2 and N2 final products, leading to reduced energy delivery. Our findings suggest that the oxygen balance is an important factor to be considered in the design of the next generation of high-nitrogen-containing EMs.

Abstract
Detonation of energetic materials (EMs) is of great importance for military applications, while the understanding of detailed events and mechanisms for the detonation process is scarce. In this study, the first deep neural network potential NNP_Shock for molecular dynamics (MD) simulation of shock-induced detonation of EMs was generated based on a deep potential model, providing DFT accuracy but 106 times the computational efficiency. On this basis, we employ our deep potential to perform MD simulations of shock-induced detonation of high-performance EM material 2,4,6,8,10,12-hexanitro-2,4,6,8,10,12-hexaazaisowurtzitane (CL-20, C6H6N12O12) and obtain the theoretical Chapman-Jouguet (C-J) detonation velocities and pressures directly by multiscale shock technique (MSST) for the first time, which are in good agreement with experiment. In addition, the Hugoniot curves and initial reaction mechanisms were successfully obtained. Therefore, the NNP_Shock potential is competent in research of the detonation performance and shock sensitivity of CL-20, and the method can also be transplanted to studies of other EMs.

Abstract
Exploring the facile synthesis of Pb-free energetic metal-organic frameworks (EMOFs) with both high nitrogen content and high thermostability is a significant but challenging task in the field of MOF-based green energetic materials. Herein, a new EMOF, [Zn2(atz)3(N3)]n (atz = 5-amino-1H-tetrazole), has been synthesized by simply using a commercial ligand (atz) under mild conditions. A probable mechanism for the formation of azide groups in the product has been proposed, in which the fraction of C-N and N-N bonds in atz is the key. The X-ray single crystal structure analysis reveals the EMOF's unique graphene-like and azide-group-bridged 2D bilayer structure with gourd-type micropores. More impressively, the EMOF shows a high nitrogen content of 59.33% and superior thermostability of up to 362 °C, both among the best of existing EMOFs. In addition, detonation property calculations and sensitivity tests have been carried out, which demonstrate its high-energy and low-sensitivity features. Moreover, [Zn2(atz)3(N3)]n shows the ability to accelerate the thermal decomposition of ammonium perchlorate (AP) and hexanitrohexaazaisowurtzitane (CL-20), making it a potential combustion promoter for green and insensitive propellants.

Abstract
Environmental concerns have stimulated the development of green alternatives to environmentally pollutive nitramine compounds used for high-energy density materials (HEDMs). The excellent energetic properties of CL20 make it a promising candidate, but its negative oxygen balance limits its efficiency for industrial and military applications. We predict here that CL20-EO formed by introducing ether links into the CC bonds of the original CL20 structure to attain balanced CO2 and H2O production leads to improved performance while minimizing the formation of carbonaceous clusters and toxic gases. To test this concept, we predicted the detonation properties at the Chapman-Jouguet (CJ) state using reactive molecular dynamics simulations with the ReaxFF force field combined with quantum mechanics based moleculear dynamics. We predict that CL20-EO enhances energetic performance compared to CL20 with a 6.0% increase in the CJ pressure and a 1.1% increase in the detonation velocity, which we attribute to achieving the correct oxygen balance to produce fully oxidized gaseous products. After expansion to normal conditions from the CJ state, CL20-EO leads only to nontoxic fully oxidized gases instead of forming the carbonaceous clusters and toxic gases found with CL-20. Thus, CL20-EO is predicted to be environmentally green. These results indicate that oxygen balance plays an important role in both energy availability and end-product toxicity and that balanced CO2 and H2O production systems provide promising candidates for the next generation of environmentally acceptable alternatives to toxic HEDMs while also enhancing the detonation performance.

Abstract
The present research aims to select the optimal molar ratio of hydrazine 3-nitro-1,2,4-triazol-5-one (HNTO) and ammonium nitrate (AN) to produce an energetic co-crystal. For a comparison purpose, the heat release, cost, density and hygroscopicity of the different co-crystals were evaluated. The obtained results indicated that HNTO/AN at the 1 : 3 ratio exhibited a higher heat release, better thermal stability, low water content and a reasonable cost, compared to other co-crystals. This new co-crystal was fully characterized through powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), confirming that this latter displayed similar characteristics to those of the co-crystal with a 1 : 1 ratio, which was recently developed. On the other hand, the catalytic activity of two energetic coordination polymers of triaminoguanidine-cobalt (T-Co) complexes, with or without graphene oxide (GO-T-Co-T), on the thermolysis of the developed co-crystal has been also assessed by DSC under non-isothermal conditions. It is revealed that these catalysts have greatly decreased the decomposition temperature of the HNTO/AN cocrystal. Moreover, because of the complete decomposition in the case of the (HNTO/AN)/GO-T-Co-T composite, the heat release has been increased as well. Isoconversional integral kinetic methods were exploited to determine the kinetic parameters of the different systems. According to the obtained results, these catalysts have a strong catalytic action on the decomposition of the co-crystal AN/HNTO for which the activation energy and the pre-exponential factor are considerably lowered. Consequently, the developed co-crystal and the energetic catalysts could be considered as potential ingredients for the next generation of composite solid propellant formulations.

Abstract
Nowadays, the practical applications of metal-organic framework (MOF)-based fluorescence detectors are severely hindered because of the complex synthesis process of linkers or heavy metal contamination. The development of a simple, inexpensive, and environmentally friendly fluorescence sensing system remains a huge challenge. In this study, we designed and synthesized a TPE@γ-CD-MOF-K complex using the facile in situ encapsulation method. The unique pore structure of γ-CD-MOF allowed it to effectively include TPE and explosives as guests simultaneously. The TPE@γ-CD-MOF-K showed stronger fluorescence emission than TPE and sensitive fluorescence quenching activities in response to nitro-aromatic compounds in the liquid phase with detection limits as low as 3 ppm. Furthermore, TPE@γ-CD-MOF-K can also effectively detect nitro-aromatic compounds in the solid state, which is very convenient for practical detection of explosives. The unique pore structure of γ-CD-MOF-K and the interaction between K+ and nitro compounds play important roles in solid-state quenching.

Abstract
The contradiction between energy and safety of explosives is better balanced by the host-guest inclusion strategy. Understanding the reaction mechanism of the host-guest explosive is necessary. To deeply analyze the role of the small guest molecules in the host-guest system, a quantum-based molecular dynamics method was used to calculate the initial decomposition reaction of the new host-guest explosive ICM-102/HNO3 against the pure ICM-102 at several high temperatures. The incorporation of HNO3 had no significant influence on the initial decomposition step of ICM-102. Conversely, the earliest intramolecular hydrogen transfer reaction is delayed partly because the H and O atoms of HNO3 connect with the O and H atoms of ICM-102, respectively. As the reaction proceeds, guest molecules get heavily involved in the reaction and increase the reaction rate. The generation rate and quantity of the small oxidizing molecules in the final product were increased significantly in the ICM-102/HNO3 system. These mechanisms revealed that HNO3 molecules inhibit the early stages of the initial decomposition of ICM-102 to some extent, and play an important role in accelerating the decomposition subsequently.

Abstract
The synthesis of energetic metal–organic frameworks (EMOFs) with one-dimensional, two-dimensional and three-dimensional structures is an effective strategy for developing new-generation high-energy-density and insensitive materials. The basic properties, models, synthetic strategies and applications of EMOF materials with nitrogen-rich energetic groups as ligands are reviewed. In contrast with traditional energetic materials, EMOFs exhibit some interesting characteristics, like tunable structure, diverse pores, high-density, high-detonation heat and so on. The traditional strategies to design EMOF materials with ideal properties are just to change the types and the size of energetic ligands and to select different metal ions. Recently, some new design concepts have come forth to produce more EMOFs materials with excellent properties, by modifying the energetic groups on the ligands and introducing highly energetic anion into skeleton, encapsulating metastable anions, introducing templates and so on. The paper points out that appropriate constructing strategy should be adopted according to the inherent characteristics of different EMOFs, by combining with functional requirements and considering the difficulties and the cost of production. To promote the development and application of EMOF materials, the more accurate and comprehensive synthesis, systematic performance measurement methods, theoretical calculation and structure simulation should be reinforced.

Abstract
Clathrate hydrates are ice-like crystalline substances in which small gas molecules are trapped inside the polyhedral cavities of water molecules. They are of great importance in both scientific research and the petroleum industry because of their applications in modern energy and environmental technologies. To achieve an atomistic-level understanding of the diffusion and decomposition of trapped molecules in clathrate hydrate, we used methane hydrates (MHs) as the prototype system and examined the methane diffusion and decomposition mechanism by employing quantum mechanics (QM) and quantum mechanics molecular dynamics (QMD) simulations. Our QMD simulations illustrated that the initial decomposition reaction in MHs initiates from hydrogen transfer among water molecules and attacks by fragments of O and OH on CH4 molecules are responsible for the destruction of the methane molecules. Next, our QM simulations revealed that the methane molecule prefers to escape from the ice cage through the hexagonal face at low temperature. To suppress the methane diffusion, we demonstrated that the diffusion barrier is significantly enhanced by adding electron or hole carriers. This is because the extra electrons and holes enhance the electrostatic interaction between methane and water molecules, leading to an increased diffusion barrier. Thus, the clathrate hydrates could be stabilized by adding extra free electron or hole carriers. Methane decomposition initiates from water fragment attack and methane hydrates could be stabilized by adding free electron or hole carriers.![]()

Abstract
Energetic metal-organic frameworks (E-MOFs) have witnessed increasing development over the past several years. However, as a highly energetic cation, NH3OH+ has never been explored to construct transition-metal-based E-MOFs. Herein, we report the first examples of NH3OH+-containing E-MOFs with bis(tetrazole)methane (H2btm) as a ligand and copper and manganese as central metal ions, [(NH3OH)2(Cu(btm)2)]n and [(NH3OH)2(Mn(btm)2)]n. Crystal structure determinations reveal that both E-MOFs show two-dimensional layered structures. Experimental results suggest that they have high thermal decomposition temperatures (>200 °C). Among them, Cu-based E-MOFs possesses outstanding thermal stability (Tdec = 230.3 °C), which surpasses those of known NH3OH+-containing compounds. They also have high energy density; in particular, the Cu-based E-MOF affords a high heat of combustion (11447 kJ kg-1) and high heat of detonation (713.8 kJ mol-1) beyond the most powerful organic explosives in use today. Additionally, the two E-MOFs show completely different sensitivity properties: the Mn-based E-MOF is an insensitive high-energy-density material (IS > 40 J; FS > 360 N; EDS > 20 J), while the Cu-based E-MOF can be classified as a sensitive energetic material (IS = 13 J; FS = 216 N; EDS = 10.25 J), demonstrating their diverse applications in different fields. Our research proposes a unique class of high-energy-density materials.
