Abstract
Oxidizing molecules play a very important role in improving the comprehensive properties of energetic materials. Recently, a series of energetic cocrystals containing 2,4,6-triamino-1,3,5-triazine-1,3-dioxide (TTDO) and oxidizing molecule have been successfully prepared. Therefore, ab initio molecular dynamics were used to simulate the thermal decomposition process of TTDO, TTDO:H2O2, TTDO:HNO3, and TTDO:HClO4 crystals at 3000 K to study the role of oxidizing molecules during the thermal decomposition of TTDO. The initial decomposition paths of the TTDO crystal include N–H bond breaking, C–N bond breaking, and intramolecular and intermolecular H transfers. The formation mechanisms of H2O, N2, and CO2 in the four crystals are completely different. The key formation mechanism of H2O is the combination of O with OH, that of N2 is the formation of the -N-N- structure, and that of CO2 is to form the intermediate CO-R with carbonyl structure that form the fragment with the -O-C-O- structure. All the oxidizers H2O2, HNO3, and HClO4 involve in the formation of H2O, N2, and CO2. The formation mechanisms of urea during the decomposition process of the four crystals are completely different, but the key step is to produce the structure of -N–CO–N-. An analysis of Nx shows that H2O2, HNO3 and HClO4 affect not only the types of Nx, but also its formation mechanisms. Among them, HNO3 has the greatest influence on Nx.
