A novel energetic material was fabricated by filling porous carbon with 1,3,5-trinitro-1,3,5-triazinane (RDX) via the ultrasonic stirring method. Characterization (TEM, BET, XRD, FTIR, etc.) was performed to determine the micromorphology, crystal structure, and specific surface area. TEM images indicated that the RDX particles were homogeneously distributed in the channels of the porous carbon, FTIR spectra and the XRD curve of the C/RDX composite exhibited the combined characteristics of porous carbon and RDX. The BET test data also confirmed this situation. The thermal decomposition kinetics and thermodynamics of the C/RDX nanocomposite energetic material were investigated at various heating rates (5, 10, 15, and 20 K·min⁻¹). The test results showed that the thermal decomposition temperature and the critical temperature of thermal explosion were lower than for RDX alone by 46.8 and 40.69 ℃, respectively. The activation energy of the C/RDX composite was lower than those of raw RDX and a C/RDX physical mixture, indicating that the C/RDX composite exhibited high thermolysis activity.
