  • Method and apparatus for a projectile incorporating a metastable interstitial composite material
    Patent number: 8230789
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for incorporating nanophase elemental materials and metastable interstitial composite materials into projectiles, projectile fragments, ordnance casings, warheads and structural components. The projectile, fragments and casings include an elemental material capable of oxidizing. A coating material that is capable of preventing oxidation of the elemental material and an oxidizing agent may be present and be capable of reacting with the elemental material so that a self-propagating high temperature synthesis reaction from a stabilized solid material is yielded for the purpose of rendering terminal effects or thermal impact to a target at impact.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: August 23, 2011
    Date of Patent: July 31, 2012
    Assignee: Nowtec Services Group, Inc.
