The distinction of NEMs lies in their nanoscale dimensions which impart unique properties such as:
- Increased Surface Area: The high surface area to volume ratio facilitates rapid reaction kinetics. - Tailored Energetic Properties: The ability to precisely control the size and composition of nanoparticles allows for customization of energetic properties. - Enhanced Reactivity: The small particle size leads to a more intimate mixing of the fuel and oxidizer, thereby enhancing the reactivity.
