Characterization of the Thermal Degradation of Selected Energetic Materials and Mixtures by Rapid-Scan Fourier Transform Infrared (RSFTIR) Spectroscopy
Abstract
The rapid thermal decomposition characteristics of alkylammonium nitrate salts in which the alkyl group is a hydrocarbon cage are described. Cubylammonium nitrate, cubane-1, 4-diammonium dinitrate, and penta undecane-4- exo-e-endo diammonium dinitrate were studied. Comparisons are made to the behavior of other alkylammonium nitrate salts upon fast thermolysis. Keywords: Energetic materials, Rapid scan fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, Thermal decomposition.
