Abstract
In a nanostructured reactive substance and a process for producing the same, intermixing of silicon and oxidizing agent on a nanometer size scale permits virtually direct contact between the fuel and the oxidizing agent, only separated by a barrier layer. After the barrier layer is broken open, fuel and oxidizing agent are spatially directly together and can react, liberating energy. The reactive substance has a high reaction rate in comparison with conventional reactive materials.
