Mg-Tf pyrolant

A residue remains undecomposed above 893 K. The mass fraction of this residue is 0.656, whereas the mass fraction of Mg contained within the pyrolant is Mg(0-600). This indicates that the residue is produced by oxidation of the Mg by the fluorine produced upon thermal decomposition of the Tf An X-ray analysis revealed that the remaining residue above 893 K in the TG experiments consisted of Mg and Mgp2. The oxidation reaction during the decomposition of Mg-Tf pyrolants is thus ...

Fig. 11.4 Burning rate characteristics of Mg-Tf pyrolants as a function of adiabatic flame temperature.

The effects of the particle size of Mg and Tf on burning rate are shown in Fig. 11.5. The Mg-Tf pyrolants used to obtain the data shown in Fig. 11.5 all have a mixture ratio of = 0.60/0.40. The burning rate increases with decreasing Mg... 

The burning rates of Mg-Tf pyrolants are highly dependent on the particle sizes of both the Mg and Tf The burning rate at Mg(0-60) is high when smaU-sized Mg and large-sized Tf particles are used in the pressure range below 2 MPa. Fig. 11.6 shows the relationship between the burning rate and the total surface area of the... 

The temperature of an Mg-Tf pyrolant composed of Mg(0-30) rises from its initial... 

Referring to Section 3.5, the burning mode of an Mg-Tf pyrolant can be understood by the use of Eqs. (3.73)-(3.76). If one assumes a homogeneous condensed phase, the heat balance at the burning surface is represented by...
