Abstract:
1. A host-guest complex as an energetic component in an insensitive munitions weapons system, comprising: an effective amount of at least one host having organic ligand(s) combined with an effective amount of at least one metal salt(s) to form ligand(s)/metal cluster(s) complex, wherein said ligand(s)/metal cluster(s) complex form at least one porous framework host configured to house a guest; at least one said guest being a solid energetic/explosive material, wherein said guest is housed substantially within said host; providing a solvothermal combination mechanism to form said porous framework(s); incorporating said solid energetic guest involving either a liquid/liquid exchange of said incoming solid energetic material as a molten material for a solvent present as a result of said framework host synthesis or dissolving said energetic guest in said solvent followed by the exchange of said incoming solid energetic saturated solution for said outgoing solvent present as a result of said framework host synthesis; and wherein said host comprises Aluminum terephthalate.
