“…Solutions of organic substances in NA are typical fuel-oxidizer explosive systems. Experimental values of the critical diameter of solutions of dichloroethane, acetic anhydride, NM, NGL, DGDN, TNT and DNT in concen-trated nitric acid (94 -100%) were evaluated over a wide range of compositions [8,9]. Experiments were carried out in cylindrical glass tubes and capillaries.…”

The main objective of this work is to study the chemical kinetics of detonation reactions in some nitroester mixtures and solutions of nitrocompounds in concentrated nitric acid. The main source of information on chemical kinetics in the detonation wave was the experimental dependence of failure diameter on composition of mixtures. Calculations were carried out in terms of classic theory of Dremin using the SGKR computer code. Effective values for the activation energies and pre-exponential factors for detonation reactions in the mixtures under investigation have been defined.

“…Any approach to technological process safety of this class of compounds was impossible without investigation of the influence of nitric acid on the detonability of nitroderivatives. The results of investigations of the detonability of solutions in concentrated nitric acid are summarized in [15,16]. The dependence of d f on the content of nitric acid had a minimal effect for solutions of different fuels: NM, DGDN, DNT, TNT, dichloroethane and acetic anhydride in compositions having oxygen balance A ¼ 0% (A ¼ S(C i A i /100), where A i is the oxygen balance of component i of the mixture, and C i is mass percent of that component).…”

The values of d min f for solutions of aromatic nitrocompounds in nitric acid were too small to be measured using cylindrical charges, so no precise values were determined [15,16].…”

This review is compiled from the experimental results of investigations that were carried out from the 1970s to 2004 in the laboratory and in the Department of Technological Processes Reliability and Safety, which was headed by Professor Boris N. Kondrikov. Sensitization to detonation by the addition of acids, amines or unsaturated substances, by introduction of porosity and by raising the initial temperature is described. All of these factors are examined in the context of the reliability and safety of technological processes. *
