    Abstract:

    To address the problems of irregular morphology and poor mechanical properties of conventional hexanitrostilbene (HNS) crystals, HNS/F2604 microspheres were fabricated via microfluidic technology. By combining Brazilian splitting tests with finite element simulations, the mechanical properties and enhancement mechanism of the as-prepared microspheres were systematically investigated.The results show that HNS/F2604 microspheres with good sphericity and smooth surfaces can be obtained when the dispersed phase flow rate is 0.05 mL·min-1, the continuous phase flow rate is 2.0 mL·min-1 (flow rate ratio of 1∶40), and the collection temperature is 60 ℃. The microspheres retain the original crystalline structure of HNS, while their peak thermal decomposition temperature is 4.6 ℃ lower than that of pure HNS.Brazilian splitting tests indicate that the pure HNS pellet has a peak load of 0.0065 kN and exhibits brittle fracture characteristics; in contrast, the peak load of the HNS/F2604 microsphere pellet increases to 0.072 kN, and its post-peak stress-displacement curve shows multi-stage attenuation, reflecting a transition to ductile fracture. The crack propagation morphology obtained from finite element simulations is in good agreement with the experimental fracture features. The HNS/F2604 composite microspheres prepared by microfluidic technology exhibit a remarkable toughening effect.
