AbstractOrganic inner salt structures are ideal backbones for heat-resistant energetic materials and systematic studies towards the thermal properties of energetic organic inner salt structures are crucial to their applications. Herein, we report a comparative thermal research of two energetic organic inner salts with different tetraazapentalene backbones. Detailed thermal decomposition behaviors and kinetics were investigated through differential scanning calorimetry and thermogravimetric analysis (DSC-TG) methods, showing that the thermal stability of the inner salts is higher than most of the traditional heat-resistant energetic materials. Further studies towards the thermal decomposition mechanism were carried out through condensed-phase thermolysis/Fourier-transform infrared (in-situ FTIR) spectroscopy and the combination of differential scanning calorimetry-thermogravimetry-mass spectrometry-Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (DSC-TG-MS-FTIR) techniques. The experiment and calculation results prove that the arrangement of the inner salt backbones has great influence on the thermal decompositions of the corresponding energetic materials. The weak N4-N5 bond in “y-” pattern tetraazapentalene backbone lead to early decomposition process and the “z-” pattern tetraazapentalene backbone exhibits more concentrated decomposition behaviors.

The thermal decomposition of Co2(CO)6(PhC2Ph) has been investigated in detail. Differential scanning calorimetry was used to determine the most suitable temperature range for the study. At 180�, Co2(CO)6(PhC2Ph) decomposes to form cobalt, carbon monoxide, tetraphenylcyclopentadienone, hexaphenylbenzene, and other organic compounds. Variation in the temperature, the time, and the solvent used for the degradation reaction causes significant changes in the yields of the organic products. An investigation of the effects of adding stoichiometric amounts of free alkyne, tetra-phenylcyclopentadienone, and hexaphenylbenzene has been initiated in an attempt to understand the degradation mechanism.

Several papers have been described on the thermal stability of the sweetener, C12H19Cl3O8 (Sucralose). Nevertheless no study using thermoanalytical techniques was found in the literature. Simultaneous thermogravimetry and differential thermal analysis (TG-DTA), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and infrared spectroscopy, have been used to study the thermal stability and thermal decomposition of sweetener.

The influence of cadmium oxide on the thermal decomposition behaviors of AP-CMDB propellants was studied by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and accelerating rate calorimetry (ARC). The test results show that the decomposition process of AP-CMDB can be divided into two stages. Cadmium oxide can increase the initial temperature, slow down the decomposition rate and improve the thermal safety of AP-CMDB.

The curing behavior and dielectric properties of cyanate ester/epoxy (EP) with a latent initiator imidazole was investigated as a function of blend composition. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) was used to investigate the dynamic cure behavior of the blends. Multiheating rate DSC, peak fitting, and iso-conversion method were applied to analyze the curing kinetic parameters. Two distinct peaks were fitted from the dynamic DSC curve and the activation energies of each reaction varied with the increase of curing degrees. Fourier transform infrared spectra revealed that several reactions coexisted during the curing processes of cyanate and EP, resulting in the coexistence of the polymers and copolymers in the final composites. The dielectric properties of the composites were studied and the phenomenon that the dielectric constants for all of the composites are independent of frequency was observed. The thermal decomposition characteristics of the blends were investigated using thermogravimetric analysis. By increasing the content of EP, the thermal properties of the cured blends were improved to a small extent, while the char yield markedly decreased.

Radiochemical tracer experiments show that in the thiocyanate complex, [Co(NH3)5SCN] [SCN]2, thermal isomerization to the isothiocyanate salt proceeds with incorporation of anionic thiocyanate. At least 45% of the isomerization process proceeds by a dissociative path. This contrasts with the mechanism in water solution where isomerization occurs without exchange with thiocyanate in solution. The result also shows the inadequacy of the generally made assumption that isomerization in the solid state is an intramolecular process. The chloride and thiocyanate salt were subjected to simultaneous thermogravimetric analysis and differential scanning calorimetry. The thiocyanate salt deamminates at a much lower temperature (from 100�C) than the chloride (from 160�C), but no process corresponding to the isomerization could be detected.
