Abstract
In this article, hybrid functional B3LYP method is used to construct the reactant structure of energetic components in propellant at the bhandhlyp/6-31g(d) level, and to calculate the closed-shell layer of the system. At the bhandhlyp/6-31g(d) level, the energy difference (activation energy) between the transition state and the reactant was calculated and the reaction mechanism between energetic components was analyzed. It is found that the O30 atom of RDX first breaks off from the nitro group and is easier to break away from RDX and interact with the vertex atom Al1 of the Al13 cluster. With the further separation of O30, it also acts with Al11 until it completely breaks away from N26 atom. The activation energy of this reaction is 56.448 × 103 J mol−1. The oxygen dioxide atom in ammonium perchlorate is more likely to interact with the Al11 atom of the Al13 cluster. With the reaction proceeding, the O22 atom will not completely separate from the Cl19 atom. The activation energy of the reaction is 27.830 × 103 J mol−1.
