The solability of pentaerythritol tetranitrate (PETN) in acetone, aqueous acetone, ethyl alcohol, ethyl acetate, and benzene has been measured as a function of temperature. The data have been analyzed in terms of the equations of solutions relating the temperature coefficient of solubility with the heat of solution of the solute. The heat of fusion of PETN has been estimated from these experiments as 23 to 24 kcal mole. (auth)
