Recovering copper ions from wastewater with chitosan to synthesize lead-free primary explosives

? 2022 Elsevier B.V.Chitosan (CTS) is a well-known adsorbent capable of absorbing copper ions. It's also a high-quality biomass carbon source. The carbon skeleton formed by the pyrolysis of CTS has outstanding electrical conductivity, which can help copper azide (CA), a new type of primary explosive that's particularly sensitive to electrostatic stimuli, be more electrostatically safe. The CTS-Cu complex is precipitated by using CTS to adsorb and flocculate copper ions in wastewater. To construct the Cu@carbonized chitosan (CCTS) precursor material, the organic ligands in the CTS-Cu complex are calcined into a porous three-dimensional carbon matrix, and the copper ions are transformed into copper nanoparticles embedded in CCTS. The azide reaction converts copper nanoparticles (CuNPs) into high-energy CA. With its good electrical conductivity, CCTS maintains its framework structure and effectively improves the electrostatic safety of composite energetic materials. CA@CCTS has a CA content of 69.7%, an electrostatic ignition energy (E50) of about 1.19 mJ, and a heat release of 1803.22 J/g. This work takes advantage of CA and CTS's environmental friendliness. CA@CCTS, as a novel lead-free primary explosive, has good electrostatic safety while containing a high proportion of CA.
