Heat Resistant Explosives XXII. The Preparation of 2,2',2' ',2' ' ',4,4', 4' ',4' ' ',6,6',6' ',6' ' '-Dodecanitroquaterphenyl, Dodeca

Abstract

This report describes the synthesis of 2,2',2'',2''',4,4',4'',4''',6, 6',6'',6'''- dodecanitro quaterphenyl, DODECA. Vacuum stability and impact sensitivity tests indicate that this compound is a potentially useful heat resistant explosive suitable for use in mild detonating fuses, MDF, flexible linear shaped charges, FLSC, and other heat resistant cutting devices. The compound is a member of the polynitropolyphenyls derived from 1,3,5- trinitrobenzene.
