The Impact Factor measures the average number of citations received in a particular year by papers published in the journal during the two preceding years. 2017 Journal Citation Reports (Clarivate Analytics, 2018) IF: 0.7 To calculate the five year Impact Factor, citations are counted in 2017 to the previous five years and divided by the source items published in the previous five years. 2017 Journal Citation Reports (Clarivate Analytics, 2018) 5-Year IF: 0.7 The Immediacy Index is the average number of times an article is cited in the year it is published. The journal Immediacy Index indicates how quickly articles in a journal are cited. Immediacy Index: 0.1 The Eigenfactor score, developed by Jevin West and Carl Bergstrom at the University of Washington, is a rating of the total importance of a scientific journal. Journals are rated according to the number of incoming citations, with citations from highly ranked journals weighted to make a larger contribution to the eigenfactor than those from poorly ranked journals. Eigenfactor: 0.00016 The Journal Citation Indicator (JCI) is a single measurement of the field-normalized citation impact of journals in the Web of Science Core Collection across disciplines. The key words here are that the metric is normalized and cross-disciplinary. JCI: 0.18 SJR: 0.313 SNIP: 0.6 CiteScore™:: 1.6 H-Index: 16

ABSTRACT

With glycidyl azide polymer-energetic thermoplastic elastomer (GAP-ETPE) as the binder, cyclotrimethylenetrinitramine (RDX)-based nanocomposites were prepared from their cosolution by spray drying. The particle size and morphology of explosive samples were characterized by scanning electron microscope, transmission electron microscope, and X-ray diffraction. The thermal decomposition properties and impact sensitivity of these samples were tested and analyzed. The results show that the RDX/GAP-ETPE microparticles are spherical in shape and range from 0.5 µm to 5 µm in size. In the microparticles, RDX particles uniformly and discretely disperse in GAP-ETPE binders with the particle size ranging from 50 nm to 200 nm. The thermal stability of RDX/GAP-ETPE nanocomposites is identical to raw RDX. The nanocomposite particles exhibit considerably low impact sensitivity, for its drop height is 73.6 cm, which increases by 50.3 cm compared with raw RDX.
