Liquid explosives nitrogen dioxide

Carbon disulfide is an extremely flammable liquid, the closed cup flash point being -22°F (-30°C). Its autoignition temperature is 90°C (194°F). Its vapors form explosive mixtures with air, within a wide range of 1.3 to 50.0% by volume in air. Reactions with certain substances can progress to explosive violence. They include finely divided metals, alkali metals, azides, fulminates, and nitrogen dioxide. [Pg.187]

Oxidants. Mixtures of nitrobenzene with sodium chlorate,9 nitric acid,10 and nitric acid and water10 are powerful explosives. Nitration of nitrobenzene with nitric and sulfuric acids may be explosive without adequate temperature control.10 A mixture of nitrobenzene and nitrogen dioxide forms a highly explosive liquid.11... [Pg.397]

Nitrogen tetraoxide is formed by pressurizing liquid nitrogen dioxide. It is a gas at normal temperature and pressure, and is used in the manufacture of explosives and rocket fuels. Nitrogen tetraoxide is used as a catalyst in oxidation reactions and in many other industrial applications. It is also a component of nitric and sulfuric acid. [Pg.1829]
