Employing non-energetic MCPs as hosts (fuel) for the adsorption of oxidant molecules enables the intimate and molecular scale mixing of fuel and oxidizer on a level that is not commonly achievable in traditional energetic mixtures. The adsorption of the oxidants into MOF-5 resulted in increased heat released upon decomposition, which shows potential for utilization of this method as a platform to develop high-performance primary energetic materials. 1. An energetic composition comprising:a first component comprising a nanostructured sorbent, that is a crystalline porous coordination polymer, consisting of at least one metal node or cluster which is coordinated to an organic linker forming at least one porous framework;a second component comprising an oxidant infiltrated into the pores of the sorbent,wherein the second component is present in an amount such that the oxidant is at least 10% of the weight of the energetic composition;a combination of nanostructured sorbent (fuel) and oxidant resulting in a material which is more sensitive to detonation by impact, friction, spark, or thermal stimulus than either of the components.2.
