The content and distribution of material was indicative of a complex
mixture of building debris and combustion products in the resulting
plume. These three samples were composed primarily of construction
materials, soot, paint (leaded and unleaded), and glass fibers
(mineral wool and fiberglass). Levels of hydrocarbons indicated
unburned or partially burned jet fuel, plastic, cellulose, and other
materials that were ignited by the fire. In morphologic analyses we
found that a majority of the mass was fibrous and composed of many
types of fibers (e.g., mineral wool, fiberglass, asbestos, wood,
paper, and cotton). The particles were separated into size
classifications by gravimetric and aerodynamic methods. Material <
2.5 .m in aerodynamic diameter was 0.88-1.98% of the total mass. The
largest mass concentrations were > 53 .m in diameter.

You need to be able to read and think in order to know what
the team of nine scientists discovered - which is why you don't.

Nowhere in the above does anyone claim to have found "unreacted
nanothermite".

Oh the IRONY from a self-admitted fired janitor substance abuser.
