Powerful  One cartridge produces 6.8x more energy then TNT for the same weight.  When the H 2 contacts air, 120 kJ is released per gram of H 2.  From each gram of AL, 1/9 g of H 2 is released.  The chemical reaction + burning H 2 = 31.4 kJ/g of AL reacted.

Ex: 4 cents vs..2 cents per gram of H 2. It is essential to capitalize on the total energy (pressure and temperature) from the reaction before the H 2 cools.

Dissimilar metals are bonded when the properties of two metals are needed in one part.  This can be accomplished when they are impacted together sufficiently. Using explosives is one method to achieve this.  In conjunction with NCSU, AHTC submitted a proposal for an NSF SBIR Phase I Grant: “High-Velocity Impact Bonding of Dissimilar Metals by Chemically Produced Hydrogen Energy”  Anticipated start date 12/1/13 Dissimilar Metal Bonding Copyright 2012 AHTC.

Dissimilar Metal Bonding  PHASE I: An Impact Bonding Machine replaces explosive welding and allows for a safe, inexpensive, assembly- line manufacturing environment

Dissimilar Metal Bonding  PHASE II: A portable tool providing a new capability for bonding in remote areas such as armored vehicles in the field or navy ships at sea. This tool may be mounted on robotic controls for assembly line manufacturing.

AHTC is confident that it will successfully be the first company to commercialize an Impact Bonding Machine and Portable Stud Bonding Tool. Our personnel are experts in the technology behind these products, and we have the backing and support of several U.S. companies that are in the explosive welding industry. At the present time we are working with a research team from the Department of Mechanical & Aerospace Engineering at North Carolina State University and awaiting funding from the National Science Foundation.
