Precipitation model and experimental correlation with various properties of pentaerythritol tetranitrate
A continuous precipitation method for the preparation of crystalline pentaerythritol tetranitrate (PETN) is reported. The process involves the precipitation of PETN from an acetone solution by the addition of water in a static mixer.
