3-nitro-1,2,4-triazol-5-one, a less sensitive explosive
Kien-Yin Lee,Michael D. Coburn +1 more
TL;DR: A less sensitive explosive, 3-nitro-1,2,4-triazol-5-one (NTO) has a crystal density of 1.93 g/cm 3 and calculated detonation velocity and pressure equivalent to those of RDX as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
The mechanism of catalytic decomposition
TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that the polar hydroxyl group is attracted to the copper surface more strongly than is the hydrocarbon chain, and that the whole layer in contact with the catalyst is orientated in this manner.
