Abstract

Experimental conditions of synchronous thermal analysis (STA) for gaining the reliable values of kinetic parameters and constructing a thermokinetic model of octogen decomposition were determined. A decrease in the samples' heating rate in the range of 20-0.5 K/min was shown to diminish the values of activation energy (Ea) and preexponential factor (A). Ea measured at low heating rates (2-0.5 K/min) is close to the energy of N-NO2 bond cleavage, which is postulated as the first stage of the decomposition. Results of thermokinetic modeling of the octogen thermal decomposition are presented.
