Abstract

and 12.50 GPa, respectively. Both complexes are insensitive to impact (>40 J) and friction (>360 N). The kinetic parameters were determined using the Kissinger and Ozawa methods, and the results are in good agreement with those obtained from the ASTM-E698 method. Additionally, both complexes catalyze the thermal decomposition of ammonium perchlorate (AP). Owing to its high thermal stability, comparable to that of TATB and other H2btm-based complexes, 1 is a promising candidate as a heat-resistant explosive, while both complexes show potential for application in advanced energetic formulations.
