Duncan, A A; Quinlin, W T

This is a compilation of powder characterization data generated by Pantex on hexanitrostilbene type II (HNS-II) Lot No. ENG-63 recrystallized by Ensign-Bickford Aerospace. Characterization includes particle size distribution, specific surface area, N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) insoluble particles, melting point, Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) endotherm and exotherm temperatures, purity determined by liquid chromatography, and photomicrographs of the bulk powder and foreign particles.
