Combustion synthesis in nanostructured reactive systems
New classes of reactive systems which are characterized by nanosized-scale and possessing extremely high reactivity, as compared to similar reactive systems with micro-scale heterogeneity, have attracted attention of researchers. In this review article, the recent developments and trends in combustion science towards the synthesis of nanostructured reactive systems are presented. The emphasis is on combustion of nano-structured reactive systems which includes mechanically induced composite particles, sol-gels, super thermites and multilayer nano-foils. Various applications of combustion synthesized nanostructured reactive systems are also discussed
