Thermal Sensitivities in Air

In routine testing the temperature corresponding to a given ignition delay is generally reported. Table 1 shows such temperatures for various azides and ignition delays. Table II hsts the explosion temperatures of a number of azides for a 5-sec ignition delay, calculated from the data of Wohler and Martin [15]. Also hsted are the minimum temperatures that result in explosion, determined
