To make a safe, portable form of heating to take to the rest of the team working up on the glacier. All combustion reactions (such as the burning of coal) are exothermic. Incredibly, the reaction ...

Usually, mechanochemical reactions between solid phases are either gradual (by deformation-induced mixing), or self-propagating (by exothermic chemical reaction). Here, by means of a systematic ...
