TTCP Report for May Chan AFRL/PRSP Energetic Ingredients Work for Fiscal Year 2002

Abstract

Nitrocyanamide salts were fully investigated, including the determination of the crystal structures of the monomethylhydrazinium nitrocyanamide, methoxyammonium nitrocyanamide, and the diaminoguanidinium nitrocyanamide. Most of the salts were either impact/friction sensitive or had thermal stability problems. This work is currently being written up into a full manuscript for publication. A new class of energetic ionic liquids based on 1-alkyl-4-amino-1,2,4-triazolium cations have been synthesized. They have been subsequently paired with energetic anions including the nitrate, perchlorate, dinitramide, and nitrocyanamide. A majority of these materials were recovered in high yield and purity, with melting points below room temperature and high decomposition onsets.
