Attila E. Pavlath received his diploma as a Chemical Engineer from the Technical University of Budapest and his Ph D. in chemistry from the Hungarian Academy of Science. He taught at his alma mater before he left Hungary after the 1956 revolution. After spending some time at McGill University in Montreal and Stauffer Chemical in Richmond, California, he joined the U.S. Department of Agriculture at Albany, California, in 1967 where he is a research leader.

The first detailed model of the atom, proposed by J. J. Thomson in 1898, was based upon the expectation that the atom was a sphere of positive electricity in which electrons were embedded like plums in a pudding. This picture of the atom was not particularly satisfying because it was not useful in predicting or explaining the chemical properties of the atom. Finally, in 1911, a series of experiments performed in the McGill University laboratory of Ernest Rutherford showed that Thomson s picture of the atom had to be abandoned. 

The original practical method of RDX synthesis, as developed by Hale of PicArsn in 1925 (Ref 1), involves treatment of Hexamine with a large excess of abs nitric acid and results in 40% yield based on 2 moles of RDX from 1 mole of Hexamine. Ross and Schiessler (Ref 15), in 1940 at McGill University, succeeded in synthesizing the same compd from paraformaldehyde (p-CH20) and AN in Ac20 in 35% yield based on p-CH20. (Subsequently, after WWII, this was found to be identical to the secret process of Eble, developed in Ger).

Concentrations of major cations in all samples were determined by acetylene flame Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy at the Trace Element Analytical Laboratories (TEAL) of McGill University. Analyses of trace element concentrations were canied out using Inductively Coupled Plasma Quadrupole Mass Spectrometry (also at TEAL). Concentrations of anions were determined by Ion Chromatography at the Hydrogeology Laboratory at McGill University. 

Jean-Francois Helie, Bill Minarik, Glenna Keating, and Isabelle Richer for assistance with various chemical analyses, and Michel Baraer and Bernardo Brixel from the Hydrogeology lab group at McGill University. The research was supported by an NSERC Discovery grant to JMM and AEWJ.
