摘要
Preparing copper-based azide by in situ reaction is well-suited for MEMS processing technology and holds promising prospects in the field of MEMS micro-initiators. This study involved the preparation of porous copper with particle sizes of approximately 30 nm, 60 nm and 100 nm through powder sintering. These were used as precursors for a gas–solid in situ azide reaction to produce copper-based azide with varying morphologies and compositions. Copper-based azide micro-initiators were designed, and their output performance was evaluated using CL-20 and HNS-IV explosives. Analytical results revealed that the product from the reaction of the 100 nm precursor exhibited a lumpy and uneven structure with a conversion rate of 90.36%. The product from the 60 nm precursor reaction had a dense surface with a conversion rate of 94.56%, while the 30 nm precursor resulted in a needle-like form with a conversion rate of 92.82%. Detonation experiments demonstrated that the copper-based azide micro-initiators prepared with 100 nm of a porous copper precursor exhibited unstable output performance, requiring a 1.6 mg charge to successfully detonate CL-20 explosives. On the other hand, copper-based azide micro-initiators prepared from 60 nm and 30 nm of porous copper precursors exhibited stable output performance. A charge of 0.8 mg was adequate for reliably and consistently detonating CL-20 and HNS-IV explosives. The reduced particle size of the precursor enhanced the output performance of the copper-based azide micro-initiators, providing increased energy redundancy during detonation and improving overall usage reliability.
