Chapter 081 Ammunition Incendiary Agent, Instantaneous Thermal Catalyst

On the second floor of Yuta Company, a space of more than 100 square meters was transformed into a chemical laboratory with the efforts of a group of chemists. The equipment and chemicals are procured to the highest military standards.

Ross has already decided to work on new ammunition, starting with 'ammunition incendiary'.

In today's world, ammunition is divided into many types, such as high-energy explosives, smokeless explosives, plastic explosives, and liquid explosives.

One of the most stable ladders, the N ladder, is known as the king of explosives, and this is because it has the best stability.

And the plastic explosive, which is the C4 in the United States, can evade X-ray detection, and even military dogs have a hard time sniffing its scent.

Liquid explosives, invented by Nobel, are nitrate. Change. Sweet. Oil, this explosive, can explode violently at the slightest vibration. Nobel and his son had studied this explosive, but his father was seriously injured and his younger brother was killed because of an accident.

The combustion of ammunition is divided into stable combustion, and unstable combustion.

As the name suggests, stable combustion means that the speed of ammunition combustion is very stable, and unstable combustion refers to the speed of combustion, which is sometimes good and sometimes slow, and extremely unstable.

The combustion of ammunition generally relies on oxidants, such as nitrate in explosives. Stone is a kind of oxidizing agent.

With an oxidizer, ammunition can burn without the need for outside air, and the faster the rate of ignition, the more powerful the ammunition will be.

If Ross wants to increase the rate of ammunition burning, he can only start with oxidizers.

Rose began to work in the laboratory to develop this oxidant.

The oxidant used by Ross is compressed hydrogen ions.

The method of hydrogen ion extraction has been applied for a long time in reality, and the method of ionizing hydrogen ions is generally used. It is not difficult for Ross to extract hydrogen ions with this technique.

These hydrogen ions are lifted out and sucked into a vacuum hood by a glass tube, which freezes the hydrogen ions into a liquid state at a low temperature.

The initial ionization oxidizer has actually been formed, but to reach the weapon level, it will be transformed into a faster burning oxidizer. Ross only needs one step, and that is to compress the density of hydrogen ions to a stronger stage. To use a joke: what is condensed is the best.

Hydrogen ions can be compressed into lumps like metal under the pressure of millions of atmospheres, and they are extremely hard.

Ross didn't have that ability, and he couldn't create an environment of millions of pressures except for building an atomic reactor.

He can only use the hundreds of thousands of atmospheres generated by the 'electromagnetic device' to increase the density of liquid hydrogen ions by using the high atmospheric pressure. The high-density hydrogen ions are frozen at low temperature and then turned into granules, like white powder.

At a constant temperature, this oxidant is safe, but when it encounters a high temperature of more than 250 degrees, it will instantly turn into a gaseous state, and when it comes into contact with air, it will form a polymer hydroxide. The burning rate is very fast.

In the laboratory, there are piles of all kinds of chemicals. Rose put on a thick blast suit and began to do his research.

The extraction process of hydrogen ions is complex and troublesome.

Fortunately, everything is extracted by electricity, and Ross can control the parameters with a computer, and with the assistance of Tianhe-2, this task is much less difficult.

The experiment, which starts from failure and then moves from failure to success, took Ross three days to extract 25 kilograms of hydrogen ions. The purity of these hydrogen ions is several times higher than that of hydrogen in industry, and the purity is extremely high. So the extraction process is much more complicated.

Ross packed the liquid hydrogen into a high-pressure cylinder, which was made four times more special, ten times safer than a gas cylinder.

Carrying the high-pressure cylinder, Ross drove away from Yuta and rushed to Lihua.

After entering Lihua Company, Ross called all the employees of the special steel workshop in. After pausing the machine, Ross turned on the EM Wall and moved it to the nearest distance.

After the magnets repel each other, the pressure is very terrifying.

The pressure in the hood reached the limit of this unit. Ross estimated that at least 180,000 atmospheres had been reached, which was already the limit of the electromagnetic device.

Ross plugged the cylinder into a plastic tube, opened the valve, and poured liquid hydrogen ions into it.

A cup of liquid hydrogen enters the vacuum hood, is compressed by the super air pressure, and quickly shrinks, increasing in density and hardness, turning into a flour-like powder.

After two hours of busywork, a bottle of hydrogen ions was compressed into a solid powder, no longer in a liquid state.

Ross activated the conveyor belt of the electromagnetic device, transported the hydrogen ions out, and hurriedly put them in the freezer. At a low temperature of minus 50 degrees Celsius, these hydrogen atoms are frozen into lumps, and after being taken out, they are placed in the palm of your hand, and there is no change.

Stable hydrogen ion oxidizers were successfully manufactured, and they were able to speed up the combustion rate of ammunition, and Ross's 'ammunition incendiary agent' was a preliminary success. The performance is stable and unstable, and how big the effect is, everything depends on the experimental results.

Hydroxide ionizer can speed up the combustion rate of explosives, but the combustion speed alone is not enough, and the energy of the ammunition must be released instantaneously to increase the power of the ammunition.

Without the 'Instantaneous Catalyst', Ross' ammunition work would be only half complete.

The problem of Ross's instantaneous release of heat required a mixture of chemicals that had to be able to volatilize quickly and burn easily.

The materials chosen by Ross are gaseous methane, ammonia, gaseous nitrate. Sour.

In the same way, these mixed materials must be compressed into a solid by using pressure before they can become a real 'instantaneous catalyst', when it comes into contact with the 'ammunition incendiary agent' and then comes into contact with the flame, it can quickly burn the substance, releasing a huge amount of energy in an instant.

Ross returned to the Uta Company and once again used the tools in the chemistry lab to create the 'Instantaneous Catalyst'.

It took another two days for Ross to come up with a purified bottle of high-pressure gas mixture.

Ross took this bottle of gas to Lihua Company, and once again borrowed the pressure of the electromagnetic wall to compress the liquid mixture into a solid state. After re-freezing, the 'instantaneous catalyst' has been manufactured.

All that's left is to experiment and see how well the 'ammunition incendiary agent' and the 'instantaneous heat catalyst' work.

Ross put the two substances under a microscope and carefully examined them, using Tianhe-2 to simulate their effects when they come into contact with gunpowder.

The first simulation, Tianhe-2, showed that the purity of the incendiary agent was insufficient, the combustion rate was not fast enough, and after contact with the explosive, the detonation rate could only reach 9,750 meters per second. This rate of ignition has surpassed the world's most advanced ammunition research. There are very few ammunition in the world that can reach a detonation speed of 9000 meters per second. The explosion rate of 9750 per second is enough to shock the world.

The improvement of the instantaneous catalyst is also obvious, allowing ordinary substances to release energy instantaneously by 0.012 seconds.

"Ammunition incendiary is enough. But the catalyst was so weak that I had to increase its ability to release heat by a factor of 5. ”

Ross was not very satisfied with the instantaneous catalyst and continued to work on it in the laboratory.

Using his powerful theory of knowledge, Ross searched over and over again to improve the role of instantaneous heat catalysts.
