Abstract
As per the current trend in science and technology, the present strategic sectors which are focusing on the development of novel materials are continually relying very strongly on the materials science researchers who are in the forefront to fulfill the industrial requirements and expectations in terms of efficiency and stability for the materials. Based on their requirements, dissipation of the energy storage is one of the primary necessities rather than to increase the capacity of energy storage. Hence, it is imperative to find the potential materials to fulfill the requirements so that the journey of this search is still an ongoing process. The present investigation deals with the measurement of the ability of shock wave resistance for brookite TiO2 at dynamic shock wave-loaded conditions by utilizing diffraction and spectroscopic methods. Based on the assessments of the above-mentioned techniques, brookite phase remained stable even at 300 shocks indicating that the brookite phase is a highly stable phase, and it could be noted that anatase TiO2 has undergone rutile phase at shocked conditions. Hence, brookite TiO2 is considered as a high shock-resistant material.
