HNAB: synthesis and characterization

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:7361464
The laboratory and pilot-plant scale synthesis of hexanitroazobenzene (HNAB) are detailed. Some of its physical, chemical, and explosive properties are presented and discussed. Among these are included polymorphic forms, thermal behavior, spectra, solubility, compatibility, toxicity, sensitivity to gap test, detonation velocity and pressure, impact sensitivity, and explosive classification. Finally, some alternate syntheses of HNAB and its intermediates are considered; some of these were successful and some were not.
