Primary explosives chemical data

CHEMICAL DATA ON EXPLOSIVE MATERIALS Primary Explosives... 

SAFETY PROFILE Poison by skin contact and intraperitoneal routes. Moderately toxic by ingestion. A severe human skin and eye irritant. Acts as a primary irritant as well as a sensitizer of skin. An allergen. Mutation data reported. Combustible when exposed to heat or flame. A moderate explosion hazard when exposed to flame, sparks, heated to 150°, or when shocked in a sealed container. Explosive reaction with ammonia at 170°C/40 bar. To fight fire, use CO2, dry chemical. Reacts violently with hydrazine sulfate or hydrazine hydrate.

Interesting is the Multidimensional Reactive Flow model developed by Tarver et al. [5,103,104) it is based on the Non-Equilibrium Zeldovich-von Neuman-Dhring theory. This model starts from the primary chemical changes occurring in the adiabaticaUy compressed thin layer of molecules of the given EM and multiphonon up-pumping due to shock, but in the mathematical description it works with experimental data of thermal explosion of EM [5,103,104) it considers the induction period of initiation of detonation. However, the induction period of the EM decomposition in front of the detonation wave makes the front kinetically unstable and pulsating [101 ].
