Abstract

The adiabatic stability of expanded nitroamine-diesel oil explosives (No.1) and expanded nitroamine-trinitrotoluene-diesel oil explosives (No.2) were tested by an Accelerating Rate Calorimeter (ARC). According to the ARC data, a conclusion was drawn that after adding TNT to the expanded nitroamine-diesel oil explosive, its stability decreases and the temptation time reduces greatly, while the exothermic heat increases greatly, and the blasting energy and power also increase sharply. Finally, the activation energy E and frequency factor A were calculated by the velocity constant method.
