Blends with alkyd or other organic resins have, however, been preptu ed and these show heat resistance intermediate between those of the organic resins and the silicones. Of ptu ticular interest is the use of silicone-organic resin blends filled with aluminium powder for the coating of metal chimneys and furnace doors. At the operating temperatures the resins are destroyed, leaving a layer of aluminium film. 

Finely divided aluminium powder or dust forms highly explosive dispersions in air [1], and all aspects of prevention of aluminium dust explosions are covered in 2 recent US National Fire Codes [2], The effects on ignition properties of impurities introduced by recycled metal used to prepare dust were studied [3], Pyrophoricity is eliminated by surface coating aluminium powder with polystyrene [4], Explosion hazards involved in arc and flame spraying of the powder are analysed and discussed [5], and the effect of surface oxide layers on flammability was studied [6], The causes of a severe explosion in 1983 in a plant producing fine aluminium powder are analysed, and improvements in safety practices discussed... 

Mixtures of magnesium (or aluminium) powder with water can be caused to explode powerfully by initiation with a boosted detonator [1], The use of organic coatings on magnesium or aluminium powder in pyrotechnic compositions prevents reaction with atmospheric moisture and problems resulting from hydrogen evolution [2],... 

Thermal decomposition of iron pentacarbonyl. Very finely divided red iron oxide is obtained by atomizing iron pentacarbonyl, Fe(CO)5, and burning it in excess of air. The size of the particles depends on the temperature (580-800 °C) and the residence time in the reactor. The smallest particles are transparent and consist of 2-line ferri-hydrite, whereas the larger, semi-transparent particles consist of hematite (see Chap. 19). The only byproduct of the reaction is carbon dioxide, hence, the process has no undesirable environmental side effects. Magnetite can be produced by the same process if it is carried out at 100-400 °C. Thermal decomposition of iron pentacarbonyl is also used to coat aluminium powder (in a fluidized bed) and also mica platelets with iron oxides to produce interference or nacreous pigments. 

Some technological information on the Aerojet General Corporation s composite propellants technology was published recently [20]. Ammonium perchlorate is ground to the particle sizes ranging from 1 to 200 fx and then mixed to form a blend of the various particle sizes which gives the best mechanical and ballistic properties. Ammonium perchlorate is mixed with liquid polybutadiene-acrylonitrile fuel, liquid plasticizer and aluminium powder (Fig. 118). The motor casing is coated internally...

Efficient protection in coatings exposed to increased temperatures and leaching environment was imparted with copolymers end-capped with O-alkylhydroxyl-amines [288] or with siloxane based HAS 36 [150]. Gloss of the acrylic or polyester topcoat is conserved. The ability of 36 to form bonds with aluminium powder or mica increases its performance in paints. 

Aluminium Powder. The uncoated powder may evolve hydrogen in contact with water, and finely divided dust may be ignited by naked lights or sparks. Coated aluminium powders which have been treated with oils or wax for printing or paint purposes are generally not dangerous. ICAOA2... 

Kazeminejad [20] has described the construction of an apparatus for the measurement of thermal conductivity accordingly to ASTM C177 [21] and DIN 52612-2 [22]. He describes a method of determining thermal conductivity of insulating materials, based on a copper-coated printed circuit board. Thermal conductivity values are reported for pure PE, pure PC, and PE and PC mixed with conductive fillers such as aluminium powder and carbon black. 

Figure 5.1. Aluminium reacts spontaneously with oxygen and forms AI2O3, which is deposited as a dense, passivating layer on the surface. Mercury cancels this passivation and produces pitting with expulsion of powdered Al20g. The photo shows an aluminium sheet coated with mercury. The process is irreversible. It reduces the free energy G of the system.

For the aluminium/silicon coatings the fluidised bed was made of a mixture of silicon donor powder (grain size about 40 pm) and aluminium powder (A1 99.5% and grain size < 200 pm).
