A method of forming a solid fuel. The method comprises passivating a fuel material comprising a metalloid. Passivating the fuel material comprises combining the fuel material, a solvent, and an isocyanate passivation agent to form a solution, and passivating exposed surfaces of the fuel material with the isocyanate passivation agent to form a passivated fuel material. The method further comprises combining the passivated fuel material with at least one binder to form a mixture, and combining a curing agent with the mixture to form a solid fuel. Related solid fuels, solid fuel ramjet engines, and methods of passivating boron and forming a solid fuel ramjet engine are also disclosed.

The present disclosure provides a low-molecular mass organic gellant and a preparation method and use thereof, belonging to the technical field of gelled fuels. The low-molecular mass organic gellant has a cyclopropane structure. The cyclopropane structure belongs to a high-tension structure, which endows the gellant with excellent gel properties; in addition, the high-tension cyclopropane structure is also capable of greatly improving a combustion performance of the gellant, shortening an ignition delay time of the fuel, and promoting combustion. Moreover, multiple hydroxyl groups contained in the low-molecular mass organic gellant is capable of effectively forming a gel through hydrogen bonding; therefore, the gellant has excellent gel and shear thinning properties for high-energy density fuel and energetic nanofluid fuel, with a critical gellant concentration of not greater than 1% when forming a stable gel.
