Abstract
Despite the therapeutic benefits of insulin-pramlintide dual-hormone therapy in diabetes, its application potential has been limited due to a lack of efficient delivery routes. Here, we developed a temperature-responsive dual-hormone foam nanoengine (HormFoam) and combined it with a customized spraying device to further construct an in situ foam-generating system for improving the rectal bioavailability of dual-hormone therapy. To support rapid clinical translation, a continuous microfluidic preparation for HormFoam was proposed, including the power unit of perfluorocarbon nanodroplets and the pharmaceutical components Pluronic F127-functionalized liposomal insulin and pramlintide. We found that HormFoam could consistently generate foams to drive drugs forward after rectal administration, which enhanced intestinal distribution and mucosa absorption, leading to systemic codelivery of insulin-pramlintide. HormFoam reproduced the physiology of endocrine pancreas for glycemic control and induced body weight loss while reversing metabolic disorders in diabetic mice with good biosafety. Therefore, HormFoam represents a state-of-the-art dual-hormone regimen with the potential to address unmet needs in diabetes management.

ADVANCED SCIENCE (WEINHEIM, BADEN-WURTTEMBERG, GERMANY) 2024; 11:e2401861.

Abstract
Hypergolic propellants rely on fuel and oxidizer that spontaneously ignite upon contact, which fulfill a wide variety of mission roles in launch vehicles and spacecraft. Energy-rich carboranes are promising hypergolic fuels, but triggering their energy release is quite difficult because of their ultrastable aromatic cage structure. To steer the development of carborane-based high-performance hypergolic material, carboranylthiolated compounds integrated with atomically precise copper clusters are presented, yielding two distinct isomers, Cu14B-S and Cu14C-S, both possessing similar ligands and core structures. With the migration of thiolate groups from carbon atoms to boron atoms, the ignition delay (ID) time shortened from 6870 to 3 ms when contacted with environmentally benign oxidizer high-test peroxide (HTP, with a H2O2 concentration of 90%). The extraordinarily short ignition ID time of Cu14B-S is ranking among the best of HTP-active hypergolic materials. The experimental and theoretical findings reveal that benefitting from the migration of thiolate groups, Cu14B-S, characterized by an electron-rich metal kernel, displays enhanced reducibility and superior charge transfer efficiency. This results in exceptional activation rates with HTP, consequently inducing carborane combustion and the simultaneous release of energy. This fundamental investigation shed light on the development of advanced green hypergolic propulsion systems.

Abstract
Hypergolicity is a highly desired characteristic for hybrid rocket engine-based fuels because it eliminates the need for a separate ignition system. Introducing hypergolic additives into conventional fuels through physical mixing is a feasible approach, but achieving highly reliable hypergolic ignition and energy release remains a major challenge. Here, the construction of core-shell Al@metal organic framework (MOF) heterostructures is reported as high-performance solid hypergolic propellants. Upon contact with the liquid oxidizer the uniformly distributed hypergolic MOF (Ag-MOF) shell can induce the ignition of hypergolic-inert fuel Al, resulting in Al combustion. Such a synthetic strategy is demonstrated to be favorable in hotspot generation and heat transfer relative to a simple physical mixture of Al/Ag-MOF, thus producing shorter ignition delay times and more efficient combustion. Thermal reactivity study indicated that the functionalization of the Ag-MOF shell changes the energy release process of the inner Al, which is accompanied by a thermite reaction. The synergistic effect of implantation of hypergolic MOF and high energy Al contributes to high specific impulses of 230-270 s over a wide range of oxidizer-to-fuel ratios.

Abstract
Crystalline frameworks represent a cutting-edge frontier in material science, and recently, there has been a surge of interest in energetic crystalline frameworks. However, the well-established porosity often leads to diminished output energy, necessitating a novel approach for performance enhancement. Thiol-yne coupling, a versatile metal-free click reaction, has been underutilized in crystalline frameworks. As a proof of concept, we herein demonstrate the potential of this approach by introducing the energy-rich, size-matched, and reductive 1,2-dicarbadodecaborane-1-thiol (CB-SH) into an acetylene-functionalized framework, Zn(AIm)2, via thiol-yne click reaction. This innovative decoration strategy resulted in a remarkable 46.6 % increase in energy density, a six-fold reduction in ignition delay time (4 ms) with red fuming nitric acid as the oxidizer, and impressive enhancement of stability. Density functional theory calculations were employed to elucidate the mechanism by which CB-SH promotes hypergolic ignition. The thiol-yne click modification strategy presented here permits engineering of crystalline frameworks for the design of advanced energetic materials.

Abstract
Polycyclic energetic materials make up a distinctive class of conjugated structures that consist of two or more rings. In this work, 1,3-bis(3,5-dinitro-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)-4,6-dinitrobenzene (BDPD) was synthesized and investigated in detail as a polycyclic heat-resistant energetic molecule that can be deprotonated by bases to obtain its anionic (3-5) salts. All compounds were thoroughly characterized by 1H and 13C NMR, infrared spectroscopy, high-resolution mass spectrometry, and elemental analysis. The structural features of BDPD and its salts were investigated by single-crystal X-ray diffraction and analyzed by different kinds of computing software, like Multiwfn, Gaussian 09W, and so on. In addition, their thermal decomposition temperatures were evaluated by differential scanning calorimetry to be 319.8-329.0 °C, revealing that they possessed high thermal stabilities. The results of impact sensitivity and friction sensitivity analysis confirm that these energetic compounds were insensitive. The detonation properties of neutral compound BDPD and all its nonmetallic salts were calculated by the EXPLO5 v6.05.04 program. The results revealed that their detonation performances were higher than those of the widely used heat-resistant explosive 2,2',4,4',6,6'-hexanitrostilbene (HNS). Combining the above results, it is reasonable to suggest that these compounds have the potential to be heat-resistant energetic materials.

Abstract
The process of solid propellant production, which is the most widely used high-energy material, has garnered significant attention from researchers. However, there have been relatively few studies on its processing, due to the unique nature of the casting process. This paper aims to further analyze the pouring process of the propellant slurry. Initially, we obtained a sample of the propellant slurry and measured its rheological parameters using a rotary rheometer. From the analysis of the experimental results, we derived the viscosity parameters and the yield values of the propellant slurry. Subsequently, we simulated the pouring process, setting the slurry parameters based on the data obtained from the rheological measurement experiment. The simulation results demonstrated that the flower plate significantly impacts upon the cutting and separating effect on the slurry during pouring. Upon leaving the flower plate, the slurry descends onto the core mold platform under the influence of gravity, gradually flowing along the edge of the core mold. Although there may be some small voids in the pouring process, the voids will disappear completely at the end of pouring. A comparison with the actual pouring situation revealed a higher consistency between the simulation results and reality, thus establishing the reliability of the simulation method as a reference for analyzing the pouring process.

Abstract
In this work, we have synthesized 3,5-dihydrazinyl-4-nitro-1H-pyrazole (2), 9-nitro-1H-pyrazolo[3,2-c:5,1-c']bis([1,2,4]triazole)-3,6-diamine (3), and N-N-bonded N,N'-{[4,4'-bi(1,2,4-triazole)]-3,3'-diyl}dinitramide (5) and its stable nitrogen-rich energetic salts in one and two steps in quantitative yields from commercially available inexpensive starting material 4,6-dichloro-5-nitropyrimidine (1). Along with characterization via nuclear magnetic resonance, infrared, differential scanning calorimetry, and elemental analysis, the structures of 2 and 4-8 were confirmed by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Interestingly, 5-8 show excellent thermal stability (242, 221, 250, and 242 °C, respectively) compared to that of RDX (210 °C). Detonation velocities of 2, 4, 6, and 7 range from 8992 to 9069 m s-1, which are better than that of RDX (8878 m s-1) and close to that of HMX (9221 m s-1). All of these compounds are insensitive to impact (10-35 J) and friction (360 N) sensitivity. These excellent energetic performances, stabilities, and synthetic feasibilities make compounds 2, 4, 6, and 7 promising candidates as secondary explosives and potential replacements for the presently used benchmark explosives RDX and HMX.

Abstract
The first example of [5,6,5]-tricyclic bistetrazole-fused energetic materials has been obtained through a one-step reaction from commercial and inexpensive 4,6-dichloro-5-nitropyrimidine. This one-step reaction including nucleophilic substitution, nucleophilic addition, cyclization, and electron transfer is rarely reported, and the reaction mechanism and scope is well investigated. Among target compounds, organic salts exhibit higher detonation velocities (D: 8898-9077 m s-1) and lower sensitivities (IS: 16-20 J) than traditional high energy explosive RDX (D = 8795 m s-1; IS = 7.5 J). In addition, the potassium salt of 5-azido-10-nitro-bis(tetrazolo)[1,5-c:5',1'-f]pyrimidin (DTAT-K) possesses excellent priming ability, comparable to traditional primary explosive Pb(N3)2, and ultralow minimum primary charge (MPC = 10 mg), which is the lowest MPC among the reported potassium-based primary explosives. The simple synthesis route, free of heavy metal and expensive raw materials, makes it promising to quickly realize this material in large-scale industrial production as a green primary explosive. This work accelerates the upgrade of green primary explosives and enriches future prospects for the design of energetic materials.

Abstract
As a typical viscoelastic material, solid propellants have a large difference in mechanical properties under static and dynamic loading. This variability is manifested in the difference in values of the relaxation modulus and dynamic modulus, which serve as the entry point for studying the dynamic and static mechanical properties of propellants. The relaxation modulus and dynamic modulus have a clear integral relationship in theory, but their consistency in engineering practice has never been verified. In this paper, by introducing the “catch-up factor λ” and “waiting factor γ”, a method for the inter-conversion of the dynamic storage modulus and relaxation modulus of HTPB propellant is established, and the consistency between them is verified. The results show that the time region of the calculated conversion values of the relaxation modulus obtained by this method covers 10−8−104 s, spanning twelve orders of magnitude. Compared to that of the relaxation modulus (10−4−104 s, spanning eight orders of magnitude), an expansion of four orders of magnitude is achieved. This enhances the expression ability of the relaxation modulus on the mechanical properties of the propellant. Furthermore, when the conversion method is applied to the dynamic−static modulus conversion of the other two HTPB propellants, the results show that the correlation coefficient between the calculated and measured conversion values is R2 > 0.933. This proves the applicability of this method to the dynamic−static modulus conversion of other types of HTPB propellants. It was also found that λ and γ have the same universal optimal value for different HTPB propellants. As a bridge for static and dynamic modulus conversion, this method greatly expands the expression ability of the relaxation modulus and dynamic storage modulus on the mechanical properties of the HTPB propellant, which is of great significance in the research into the mechanical properties of the propellant.

Abstract
Thermally stable energetic materials have broad applications in the deep mining, oil and natural exploration, and aerospace industries. The quest for thermally stable (heat-resistant) energetic materials with high energy output and low sensitivity has fascinated many researchers worldwide. In this study, two different series of thermally stable energetic materials and salts based on pyrazole-oxadiazole and pyrazole-triazole (3-23) with different explosophoric groups have been synthesized in a simple and straightforward manner. All the newly synthesized compounds were fully characterized by IR, ESI-MS, multinuclear NMR spectroscopy, elemental analysis, and thermogravimetric analysis-differential scanning calorimetry measurements. The structures of 3, 7, and 22 were supported by single-crystal X-ray diffraction studies. The density, heat of formation, and energetic properties (detonation velocity and detonation pressure) of all the compounds range between 1.75 and 1.94 g cm-3, 0.73 to 2.44 kJ g-1, 7689 to 9139 m s-1, and 23.3 to 31.5 GPa, respectively. All the compounds are insensitive to impact (>30 J) and friction (>360 N). In addition, compounds 4, 6, 10, 14, 17, 21, 22, and 23 show high onset decomposition temperature (Td between 238 and 397 °C) than the benchmark energetic materials RDX (Td = 210 °C), HMX (279 °C), and thermally stable HNS (318 °C). It is noteworthy that the pyrazole-oxadiazole and pyrazole-triazole backbones greatly influence their physicochemical and energetic properties. Overall, this study offers a perspective on insensitive and thermally stable nitrogen-rich materials and explores the relationship between the structure and performance.

Abstract
Ultrafast plasma dynamics play a pivotal role in the relativistic high harmonic generation, a phenomenon that can give rise to intense light fields of attosecond duration. Controlling such plasma dynamics holds key to optimize the relevant sub-cycle processes in the high-intensity regime. Here, we demonstrate that the optimal coherent combination of two intense ultrashort pulses centered at two-colors (fundamental frequency, [Formula: see text] and second harmonic, [Formula: see text]) can lead to an optimal shape in relativistic intensity driver field that yields such an extraordinarily sensitive control. Conducting a series of two-dimensional (2D) relativistic particle-in-cell (PIC) simulations carried out for currently achievable laser parameters and realistic experimental conditions, we demonstrate that an appropriate combination of [Formula: see text] along with a precise delay control can lead to more than three times enhancement in the resulting high harmonic flux. Finally, the two-color multi-cycle field synthesized with appropriate delay and polarization can all-optically suppress several attosecond bursts while favourably allowing one burst to occur, leading to the generation of intense isolated attosecond pulses without the need of any sophisticated gating techniques.

Abstract
Exploring novel hypergolic fuels for modern space propulsion is highly desired. However, the analysis and understanding of the structure and hypergolic performance at the molecular level are still insufficient. To understand the factors that dictate hypergolicity, we conducted a comparative study on a series of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) characterized by the same topology but with varied ligand structures. The ignition delay (ID) time trend was found to be imidazole < triazole < tetrazole, and the rapid ID time was 8 ms. By combining experimental studies and density functional theory (DFT) calculations, we found that propargyl and cyanoborohydride groups that functioned as dual hypergolic triggers contributed to the hypergolicity, and a distinct electronic structure was detrimental to ID time. The structure-performance relationships presented herein can potentially provide some fundamental insights into the field of developing high-performance hypergolic fuels.

Abstract
A domain-related data search promoted triazolotriazine-fused energetic scaffold filtration with combinatorial design to alleviate the lack of thermostable high-energy materials; 16 candidates were discovered that may show promising energy and safety performance, as well as excellent thermal stability. Novel fused triazolo-1,2,4-triazine energetic material 7-nitro-3-(1H-tetrazol-5-yl)-[1,2,4]triazolo[5,1-c][1,2,4]triazin-4-amine-2-oxide (Candidate No. 4) with excellent thermal stability, high energy performance and low sensitivity was developed successfully by using a facile N-oxide synthetic method. Our findings may be applicable to a wider range of materials and prove equally powerful for searching for other high-performing energetic materials.

Abstract
Traditionally, the study of reaction mechanisms of complex reaction systems such as combustion has been performed on an individual basis by optimizations of transition structure and minimum energy path or by reaction dynamics trajectory calculations for one elementary reaction at a time. It is effective, but time-consuming, whereas important and unexpected processes could have been missed. In this article, we present a direct molecular dynamics (DMD) approach and a virtual-reality simulation program, CARNOT, in which plausible chemical reactions are simulated simultaneously at finite temperature and pressure conditions. A key concept of the present ab initio molecular dynamics method is to partition a large, chemically reactive system into molecular fragments that can be adjusted on the fly of a DMD simulation. The theory represents an extension of the explicit polarization method to reactive events, called ReX-Pol. We propose a highest-and-lowest adapted-spin approximation to define the local spins of individual fragments, rather than treating the entire system by a delocalized wave function. Consequently, the present ab initio DMD can be applied to reactive systems consisting of an arbitrarily varying number of closed and open-shell fragments such as free radicals, zwitterions, and separate ions found in combustion and other reactions. A graph-data structure algorithm was incorporated in CARNOT for the analysis of reaction networks, suitable for reaction mechanism reduction. Employing the PW91 density functional theory and the 6-31+G(d) basis set, the capabilities of the CARNOT program were illustrated by a combustion reaction, consisting of 28 650 atoms, and by reaction network analysis that revealed a range of mechanistic and dynamical events. The method may be useful for applications to other types of complex reactions.

Abstract
Increasing research efforts have been focused on developing next-generation propellants. In this work, we demonstrated that assembling zero-dimensional (0D) silver clusters with energetic ligands into 3D metal organic frameworks (MOFs) not only inherited the short ignition delay (ID) time of the alkynyl-silver cluster but also significantly increased the output energy. Among them, the open cationic framework of ZZU-363 incorporating counter NO3 - ions achieved a considerably reduced energy barrier and eventually the shortest ID time (26 ms), together with the highest volumetric energy density (40.4 kJ cm-3) and specific impulse (263.1 s), which is far superior to traditional hydrazine-based propellants. The underlying mechanisms are clearly revealed by theoretical calculations. This work opens a venue to significantly enhancing the hypergolic activity of metal clusters and MOFs.

Abstract
The development of hypergolic materials has aroused great interest due to their important applications in aerospace technology. In this work, six new energetic complexes were prepared and comprehensively characterized. All energetic complexes had isostructural characteristics, which made them ideal candidates for studying their structure-performance relationships. These energetic complexes had good thermal stabilities and excellent specific impulses. The vacuum-specific impulses were in the range 264.0-271.9 s, which was greater than most reported solid hypergolic materials. Moreover, the hypergolic performance of these compounds was examined by using 100% HNO3 as the oxidizer, and their catalytic performance in the hypergolic reaction of typical energetic ionic liquids and 90% H2O2 was comprehensively studied. All compounds displayed excellent hypergolic performance with the shortest ignition delay time of 4 ms. The examined copper-containing energetic complexes displayed excellent catalytic activities for the hypergolic reaction between energetic ionic liquids and 90% H2O2. The shortest ignition delay time of the examined hypergolic reactions was 31 ms. The suitable physicochemical properties, excellent energetic properties, and high catalytic activity of the hypergolic reactions have demonstrated the great potential of these energetic complexes as promoters for the development of green hypergolic bipropellants.

Abstract
In this study, a hypergolic linker (dicyanamide, DCA) and a high-energy nitrogen-rich ligand (1,5-diaminotetrazole, DAT) were applied to construct high-energy metal-organic frameworks (HEMOFs) with hypergolic property. Three novel metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) were synthesized via a mild method with fascinating 2D polymeric architectures, and they could ignite spontaneously upon contact with white fuming nitric acid (WFNA). The gravimetric energy densities of the three HEMOFs all exceeded 26.2 kJ·g-1. The cupric MOF exhibits the highest gravimetric and volumetric energy density of 27.5 kJ·g-1 and 51.3 kJ·cm-3, respectively. By adjusting the metal cations, high-energy ligands and hypergolic linkers can improve the performance of hypergolic MOFs. This work provides a strategy for manufacturing MOFs as potential high-energy hypergolic fuels.
