Abstract
Thermal stability of nine primary explosives has been determined at 89 °C. Half-lives (t 1 2 for thermal decomposition are correlated against temperature of ignition (TI) and the peak maxima (Tmax) in the DSC traces. A trend to increased thermal stability with increased TI and Tmax is observed, with Tmax giving the better correlation. Thermal decomposition of three of the materials is accompanied by a decrease in Tmax by up to 10 °C at 50% decomposition. This could be an indication of autocatalytic decomposition.
