description | To obtain the influence of the Bi<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> particle content of a PTFE/Al/Bi<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> reactive material (later referred to as PAB) on its shock-induced chemical reaction (SICR) characteristics, five kinds of PAB with different Bi<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> contents were prepared; the reaction process in a drop-hammer test, recorded using a high-speed camera, was analyzed. The ignition and reaction mechanisms of PAB under mechanical impact were analyzed based on the thermochemical reaction characteristics and the microstructure. The results show that with an increase in Bi<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> content, the shock-induced chemical reaction duration and the sensitivity of PAB increase, and then decrease. When the Bi<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> content is 9%, the impact sensitivity is the highest and the reaction duration is the longest. The heating at the crack tip is responsible for PAB ignition under long-pulse low-velocity impact. During ignition, PAB undergoes several physicochemical changes such as the melting of PTFE, a PTFE/Bi<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> reaction, an Al/Bi<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> reaction, pyrolysis of the melted PTFE, and a C<sub>2</sub>F<sub>4</sub>/Al reaction; moreover, the presence of Bi<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> decreases the excitation threshold of the reactive material, which facilitates the propagation of the reaction and improves the degree of the reaction and overall energy release of the reactive material. |
