Energetic materials fnd use in both military and civilian applications, however many commonly used materials suffer from serious defciencies including toxicity and high sensitivity. Nanothermites exhibit vastly differing characteristics compared to their well known micron scale relatives and through the use of various preparatory chemical techniques can be tailored to have a wide spectra of chemical and energetic properties. This may allow use as superior replacements of conventional energetic materials in various applications.
