Abstract
Experimental results have shown that the use of inorganic oxidizers (ammonium nitrate, ammonium perchlorate, and ammonium dinitramide) as additives does not lead to a considerable increase in the heat of explosion and acceleration ability of HMX. Ammonium perchlorate does not have an effect on the acceleration ability; however, it leads to an increase in the heat of explosion of triaminotrinitrobenzene. Calculations have shown that the acceleration ability of explosives with a low oxygen ratio can be increased through the formation of nanostructured composites with inorganic oxidizers. Calculations suggest that the addition of the studied oxidizers to CL-20 leads to a decrease in the acceleration ability of this promising explosive.
