Abstract
Little is known about trinitromethyl nitrotriazole (TNMNT) since the crystal structure, density, energetic performance, and thermal properties have not been determined. A detailed characterization of TNMNT and its hydrazinium and potassium salts and their potential as solid propellants and oxidizers has been established. TNMNT exhibits a high density (1.96 g cm-3) and positive enthalpy of formation (ΔHf = +84.79 kJ mol-1). TNMNT and its hydrazinium and potassium salts illustrate excellent detonation properties (P = 34.24 to 36.22 GPa, D = 8899 to 9031 ms-1). TNMNT and its hydrazinium salt exhibit outstanding propulsive properties (Isp = 247.28 to 271.19 s), and these are superior to AP (Isp = 156.63 s) and ADN (Isp = 202.14 s). The results suggest opening the door to utilizing TNMNT and its energetic salts in solid rocket propulsion.
