A critical review of the published data on the mechanism of decomposition of secondary
nitramines is presented. Based on the data available, it is concluded that the first step of …

The mechanism of the gas phase unimolecular decomposition of hexahydro-1, 3, 5,-trinitro-
1, 3, 5,-triazine (RDX) has been investigated using first principles gradient-corrected density …

By scattering from a variety of acoustic phonons, a complete stiffness tensor has been
determined for crystalline β-HMX. The results are compared with recent experimental and …

Understanding the explosive decomposition pathways of high‐energy‐density materials
(HEDMs) is important for developing compounds with improved properties. Rapid reaction …

Thin films of RDX (hexahydro-1, 3, 5-trinitro-1, 3, 5-triazine) have been subjected totransient
pyrolysis using a pulsed CO2 laser in order to determine details of the thermal …

The role of mechanical energy in the chemistry of molecular systems is of growing
importance. Although microscopic models exist that describe the role of thermal, electrical …

Using the BLYP and B3LYP level of density functional theory, four possible decomposition
reaction pathways of HMX in the gas phase were investigated: N− NO2 bond dissociation …

Термическое разложение вторичных нитраминов, среди которых обнаружены такие
