Dr. Onas Bolton and Prof. Adam J. Matzger Improved Stability and Smart-Material Functionality Realized in an Energetic Cocrystal Angewandte Chemie International Edition 50

Handle with care: CL-20, a high-power explosive suffering from high sensitivity, has been cocrystallized with TNT to produce a novel high-power, low-sensitivity explosive. This cocrystal can be used directly for explosives applications or stored in this insensitive form then activated by heat to return it to its high-sensitivity form.
