| Abstract: | The thermolysis of
3-amino-5-nitro-1,2,4-triazole (ANTA) has been undertaken using
thermogravimetry-differential thermal analysis (TG-DTG-DTA) and differential
scanning calorimetry (DSC) techniques in N2 atmosphere. TG and DTA
have also been done separately in air to examine the effect of atmospheric
changes. Isothermal TG has been done upto mass loss of 36% and data there from
has been used to evaluate kinetic parameters using model fitting as well as
model free isoconversional method. Rapid thermolysis of the sample has been
studied by measuring explosion delay and evaluating its kinetic parameters. The
first step in ANTA thermolysis involves removal of NO2 followed by
ring rupture leading to the formation of gaseous products such as CO2,
N2O, HCN and HNCO. |
