In Situ Generation of Biocidal Copper Iodide via Reactive Nanoenergetic Systems

ABSTRACT In situ generation of copper iodide (CuI) was achieved through the ignition of nanoenergetic system designed to release copper and iodine species. Aluminum–copper oxide and aluminum–iodine pentoxide thermite mixtures were combined in proportions ranging from 25 to 75 wt....
