Abstract

AbstractThe methods of probing mass spectrometry (PMS) for diagnostic of flames and for the study of kinetics and mechanism of the thermal decomposition products of energetic materials (EM) are described. Several types of instruments based on microprobe and molecular beam mass spectrometric sampling have been developed. Time of flight mass spectrometer has been used. Apparatuses for high (10 atm) and low (<1 atm) pressure have been developed for the study of combustion and decomposition of EM by PMS “in situ”. Several examples are presented to demonstrate application of PMS method for the study of EM flame structure, thermal decomposition and dynamic of ignition. Experimental data on decomposition of double base propellants ammonium dinitramide, ammonium perchlorate are presented.
