Phase transitions of ε-HNIW in compound systems

The heat-induced phase transitions of ε-HNIW, both neat and coated with various additives used in plastic bonded explosives, were investigated using powder X-ray diffraction and differential scanning calorimetry. It was found that ε-HNIW, after being held at 70°C for 60 h, remained in the ε-phase. Applying other conditions, various phase transition parameters were determined, including T{sub c} (the critical phase transition temperature), T{sub 50} (the temperature at which 50% of the phase transition is complete) and T{sub 180} (the percentage of γ-HNIW present in samples heated to 180°C). According to the above three parameters, additives were divided into three categories: those that delay phase transition, those that raise the critical temperature and the transition rate, and those that promote the phase transition. Based on the above data, a phase transition mechanism is proposed.
