In this work, Ni (Nickel) dded Al-PTFE composites for purpose improving energy density dmge effect. To investigte rml behvior, mechnicl properties rection chrcteristics composites, n Al-PTFE mixture n Al-Ni mixture prepred by ultrsonic mixing. Six types different component mss rtios prepred by molding sintering. Simultneous rml nlysis experiments crried out chrcterize rml behvior Al-PTFE mixture Al-Ni mixture. Qusi-sttic tests performed nlyze mechnicl properties rection chrcteristics. results indicte tht rection onset temperture Al-Ni (582.7 C) similr tht Al-PTFE (587.6 C) tht rection het Al-Ni (991.9 J/g) 12.5 times higher thn tht Al-PTFE (79.6 J/g). With increse Ni content, mteril chnged from ductile brittle strin hrdening modulus compressive strength rose first n subsequently decresed, reching mximum MP MP respectively when volume frction Ni 10%. An exormic rection occurred for Ni volume frction no more thn 10% under, ccompnied by formtion Ni-Al intermetllic compounds. In system, rection between Al PTFE preceded rection between Al Ni fesibility incresing energy density dmge effect rective mteril by mens Ni-Al rection proved.

Introduction Rective mterils, which re generlly composed two or more non-explosive solid mterils, re new type energetic mteril induced by n impct. y sty inert under norml temperture pressure undergo violent rection under impct while generting new substnces relesing lrge mount het [1 3]. As typicl rection mteril, Al-PTFE (luminum-polytetrfluoroene) hs chrcteristics higher energy density, better mechnicl properties, stronger stbility, esier preprtion compred trditionl energetic mterils such s explosives propellnts [4,5].

It cn be mde in high-energy wrhed n impct-rection secondry dmge in form n energetic liner or rection frgment while penetrting trget by its own kinetic energy. Chemicl rections such s explosions combustion will be triggered so s chieve dmge trget [6,7]. Wher Al-PTFE rective mteril cn obtin good ppliction depends on if it hs sufficient strength ensure its sfety under conditions production, ing, srge explosive loding chemicl rection cn occur when penetrting trget. refore, in order improve strength density mterils, experimentl reserch hs been conducted worldwide primrily focus on engineering strin Al-PTFE under different influence fcrs performnce chnge fter dding different fillers. Feng found tht n Al-PTFE specimen, through specil het tretment, could rect violently under for first time on this bsis, effects sintering temperture, mteril rtio, Al prticle size on rection Al-PTFE scertined [8,9]. Wu studied impct exerted by Al prticle size on mechnicl properties rection chrcteristics Al-PTFE. It found tht increse in Al prticle size, strength sensitivity mteril decresed ctivtion rection Al PTFE becme more more difficult occur. formtion circumferentil open crcks prerequisite for Al-PTFE undergo rective rection [10]. Ci investigted mechnicl properties Al-W-PTFE mterils found tht ddition W prticles could effectively improve strength Al-PTFE [11]. Herbold studied effect W prticle size on strength, filure shock behvior Al-W-PTFE composites by mens experimenttion simultion. results indicted tht strength Al-W-PTFE incresed decrese in W prticle size [12]. Yu conducted experiments discovered tht ddition TiH2 prticles Al-PTFE cn significntly enhnce strength composite specil flme, different from Al-PTFE rection, observed in rection phenomenon [13]. previous reserch minly focused on performnce chnge Al-PTFE dded W prticles re is little reserch on performnce chnge fter dding Ni prticles [14 16]. Although W hs n extremely high density (19.3 g/cm 3 ), since W does not prticipte in rection, it is only used s crrier for mss ddition Al-PTFE energy density mteril is inevitbly lod under condition tht volume frction mteril is constnt. Ni hs higher density (8.9 g/cm 3 ) Ekins found tht Ni Al cn undergo chemicl rections under impct loding form Ni-Al intermetllic compounds [17 19]. In this regrd, ddition Ni prticles Al-PTFE not only cn increse strength density mteril but cn lso increse energy density mteril enhnce dmging effect on trget.
