Abstract

A novel nitrogen-rich energetic compound 4-amino-1,2,4-triazole dinitroguanidine salt (4-ATDNG) was synthesized and fully characterized. Its crystal, thermal behaviour, and detonation properties were investigated by X-ray diffraction, thermogravimetry-derivative thermogravimetry-differential scanning calorimetry (TG-DTG-DSC) coupling system, and the Kamlet–Jacobs equation. In view of the obtained values such as the critical temperature of thermal explosion (T_b, 186.36°C), entropy of activation (ΔS^≠, 60.22 J mol^–1 k^–1), enthalpy of activation (ΔH^≠, 143.24 kJ mol^–1), free energy of activation (ΔG^≠, 116.34 kJ mol^–1), detonation pressure (P, 29.78 GPa), detonation velocity (V, 8.28 km s^–1), and impact sensitivity (h₅₀ = 135 cm), it is proposed that 4-ATDNG possesses excellent thermal stability and has the potential to be a useful energetic material in the future.
