    A few things that might be worth adding:
    (1) Molecular nitrogen (N2) is fairly inert because it has a very strong triple bond that is unfavourable to break. This inversely means the triple bond is very favorable to form, and that forming this triple bond releases a tremendous amount of energy. Seeing as nitrogen is a gas even at room temperature, it makes formation of nitrogen a good basis for propellants and explosives, as it not only releases heat but also directly produces gas.
    (2) The overwhelming majority of metals exist in nature as either sulfides or oxides, and refining these to pure elements requires the expenditure of tremendous amounts of energy. The same symmetry seen with the nitrogen triple bond also exists here, where the formation of metal oxides can be used to release tremendous amounts of energy (thermite being an excellent demonstration). Aluminium not only forms particularly stable bonds with oxygen compared to other metals, but also happens to be a very common element in nature, making it a useful candidate for additives in explosives - where you'll often find it.

    Somebody may have already noted this, but the storable oxydizer used in rockets such as Proton (the one shown with the pointy end down), Ariane I-IV, Atlas II-IV, etc... is actually nitrogen tetroxyde. Nitric acid, mostly in its red fuming variety, was also used in the early days of rocketry, both civilian and military, but was quickly abandonned after N2O4 was identified as suitable.
    If you haven't read it, I strongly suggest Ignition! - an informal history of liquid rocket propellants by John D. Clark, both highly informative and hilarious.

    Also nitrogen is not dead weight. N2 is inert because it is highly stable. By breaking down nitrogen compounds you not only create gas volume but the nitrogen also provides a significant amount of energy by returning to it's stable state. I highly recomend the channel explosions and fire for more insight. Most australian chemist on this site.

    4:10 Sulfur can be useful to ignite aluminum in a mixture, while aluminum is hard to ignite.
    Perchlorates are also a good ingredient in explosive mixtures. CLO4. What they sometimes do to make "thermobaric" bombs is to add some ingredients (S or ClO4,) to make the fuel get to react (Al or Mg or C) better with the rocket fuel or explosive (read ammonium nitrate based rocket fuel or explosive). Also you can get a bigger bang per weight of explosive mixture, if you make a thermobaric mixture. And thus a higher explosive rating (running up to 3 times the power or more of TNT for the same weight). So it is basically a big firecracker (flashpowder) mixed with an explosive substance.

    Fuel: A substance that releases some form of usable energy, the most commonly exploited form being heat.
    Propellant: A fuel substance whose released energy is exploited as an accelerating mass, most commonly gas generation which is collected and directed-- trading pressure for velocity.
    Explosive: Either a reaction mass that is prevented from accelerating, transducing kinetic energy into potential energy by trading acceleration for pressure; or a propellant whose energy release is faster than the ambient speed of sound, thus creating supersonic shock without the need for pressure containment prior to release.

    • @Backyard.Ballistics
      @Backyard.Ballistics  4 года назад

      the application you are referring to is called "gas generator". Smokeless powder can of course be used for that purpose, but is not the best suited substance, first because it releases the products at very high temperatures, which means that at first you have a huge volume of gas, and soon after, with the gas cooling, it shrinks by about 10 times. Second, a large portion of the reaction products is composed by steam, which condenses into liquid water below 100°C, further reducing the residual volume at room temperature. A CO2 canister is much more effective in filling tires ;)

      A few years ago I saw a .44 caliber Belgian copy of a S&W Russian style revolver, with a split in the cylinder, shooter supposedly was under loading by 50% the cartridges with black powder and nothing to occupy airspace in cartridge (like corn meal) and one round was said to have 'detonated'. I am merely repeating what I was told, and my skepticism entertains other possibilities such as a overload, barrel obstruction, timing issues, pre-existing stressing of cylinder from past use wrong ammo (.44 Special and .44 Magnum wadcutter rounds can sometimes fit in those straight walled cylinders.)
      Please correct me if I'm wrong, but I understood combustion was the chemical alteration of a chemical induced by heat, while detonation is act of forcing molecules together under high pressure to cause a greater release of energy. That's why C-4 can be lit with a match and will merely burn, while an explosive charge, like from a blasting cap, will cause an explosion.

      @@doraran2138 the chemical reaction is the same, but the way the flame front propagates is different. In deflagration the energetic material gets its initiation energy by thermal conduction, so a given particle burns because its neighbor particles heat it up.
      In detonation the flame front is propagated by a shock wave, which provides the initiation energy. The velocity at which the shock propagates is a property of the explosive, and is indicated as velocity of detonation.
      The proposed phenomenon related to rare gun accidents, called secondary explosion effect, is not necessarily linked to a detonation, and in any case is certainly not a typical one.

    • @doraran2138
      @doraran2138 4 года назад

      I like term secondary explosion effect as it's probably less misleading. From my limited chemistry background (general, organic, biochemistry and pharmacology) I might be able to see, in a rare set of circumstances where powder not packed, therefore not slowing wave, that the full pulse of primer may cause the wave you describe in detonation. However, that should be a repeatable phenomenon, that you mention is not case. My skepticism still needs to rule out the factors described and others when considering detonation/secondary explosion possibility. Anyway, thanks for the clarity of your response on deflagration/detonation.

    Oh, so that's why we don't have liquid or gas powered guns, energy density is low. I get confused because gasoline has 132 megajoules per gallon, so a teaspoon of gasoline is 171 kilo-joules. But you would need an oxidizer and that is where it fails. Hydrogen-peroxide would work much better, but I think it absorbs contaminants too easily which would throw off combustion. I am imagining a gun that has 2 separate liquid fuel compartments and only needs the bullet part of the cartridge. Since it doesn't rely on the pressure that the casing can handle, you could theoretically achieve much higher pressures. Or at least cut out all the excess weight of all the casings and make guns lighter.

    I'll actually disagree a little; Fluorine is absolutely the "king" of oxidizers as it will readily and vigorously oxidize substances at room temperature upon contact while oxygen will behave much more tamely. Fluorine loves to spontaneously and vigorously oxidize everything including pressure vessels, hoses, pipes, lab equipment, lab technicians, safety barriers, water, and fire suppression systems. Sure, it's a more potent oxidizer than oxygen, but only the criminally-insane think it is a good idea to try to actually work with it. ; )

      The absolute king of oxidisers is Chlorine fluoride (either Trifluoride or Pentafluoride).
      They are hypergolic with glass.
      They are widely used in the semiconductor industry to remove glass splatter from stainless steel containers.
      They were developed as chemical weapons during WW2 but the Germans found them to dangerous to handle.
