Phenol ignition temperature

Impact Sensitivity by BM App — max faii for 0/5 shots is 35cm with a 2kg wt ignition Temperature — ignites at 390—400° Initiation Sensitivity — complete deton is brought about by 0.5g DDNP (Diazodinitro-phenol), 0.16g MF or 0.04g LA Power by Lead Block — 326cc or 134% TNT Thermal Stability — International Test at 75°— no discoloration or loss io wt in 48 hrs. Dty storage in the lab at RT for 6 months caused no deterioration... 

Clark determined the ignition temperature of diazodinitro phenol by dropping 0.02-gram portions of the material onto a heated bath of molten metal and noting the times which elapsecontacts with the hot metal and the explosions 1 second at 200 , 2.5 seconds at 190 , 5 seconds at 185 , and 10.0 seconds at 180 . At 177 the material decomposed without an explosion. 

The heating rate strongly influences the shape of a TGA curve, as does the atmosphere, the gas flow rate, and the sample mass [243]. Heating of a crosslinked phenolic up to its ignition temperature leads to formation of char. Char yields are an important parameter in flammability studies. The oxygen... 

In fires, melamine—phenolic laminates ignite slowly at high temperatures and bum slowly producing smoke that has about the same toxicity as wood smoke (17).
