Rapid Synthesis of Monodispersed TATB Microparticles in Ionic Liquid Micelles

Controlling microscopic morphology of energetic materials is of significant interest for the improvement of their performance and production consistency. As an important insensitive high explosive material, triaminotrinitrobenzene (TATB) has attracted tremendous research effort for military grade explosives and propellants. Here, in this study, a new, rapid and inexpensive synthesis method for monodispersed TATB microparticles based on micelle-confined precipitation was developed. Surfactant with proper hydrophilic-lipophilic balance value was found to be critical to the success of this synthesis. Lasltyl, the morphology of the TATB microparticles can be tuned between quasi-spherical and faceted by controlling the speed of recrystallization.

Simultaneous Capture and Conversion of CO 2 to Methanol via a Switchable Ionic Liquid and Low-Temperature Metal Catalyst (CRADA 449)

Advance development of the Integrated (Carbon Dioxide) CO 2 Capture and Conversion to Methanol (ICCCM) process, which is based on PNNL’s proprietary Carbon Dioxide Binding Organic Liquids (CO 2 BOLs) capture solvent technology for separating the CO 2 from dilute streams. Design, fabricate, and demonstrate a bench-scale ICCCM prototype for the continuous flow combined capture and catalytic conversion of CO 2 into methanol and assess viability for commercialization.

Hydrogen/Metal Hydride Based Heat Pump System for Large HVAC Applications Utilizing an Ionic Liquid Desiccant Subsystem [Slides]

A multi-stage electrochemical hydrogen compressor incorporates membrane-electrode-assemblies (MEAs) separated by proton exchange membranes (PEMs) in series to reach higher pressures, when a current is passed through the MEA protons and electrons are generated at the anode. The protons are electrochemically driven across the membrane to the cathode, after which they combine with the rerouted electrons to form hydrogen, which is fed to the hydrogen compressor to be oxidized at the anode of each cell to form protons and electrons. This type of compressor has no moving parts and can be applied to refrigeration systems technologies. This project investigated the viability of commercialization of heat pumps based on electrochemical compressor technology.
