Analysis Methods for Explosive Materials. I. Polynitro Compounds

摘要

A high pressure liquid chromatography method was developed for rapid and quantitative chemical analysis of the following thermally stable explosive materials: DATB, DINA, DIPAM, DNT, DODECA, HNAB, HNBiB, HMX, HNBP, HNS, NONA, ONT, PA, PETN, PYX, RDX, TATB, TETRYL, TNA, TNB, TNN, TNS, TNT, and TPT (see glossary). Additional chemical characterization of the above materials was carried out by Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy and by Thin Layer Chromatography. Dimethylsulfoxide was used as the common solvent for all the compounds in this investigation.
